Hot Salsa: These are people that want to get in the most sliding on the most difficult and advanced terrain over the two days, with a fast pace down the mountain to maximize fun and vertical feet. This group is not for the faint of heart. You need to be extremely comfortable on expert terrain. If you want to be sliding with the hot salsa group, you should expect to get maximum mileage on the mountain with fewer instructional sessions and teaching segments occurring. The hot salsa groups are here for mileage and experiencing the mountain. As such, these groups typically ride from first chair to last chair with a few quick stops for bathroom breaks and usually only a 30-minute break for lunch. Moguls and tree terrain (if available) are most certainly going to be explored in this group. Join the hot salsa group if you’re feeling spicy and want to maximize your vertical feet and your exploration of the hardest terrain that we have available over the two days.

Medium Salsa: Medium salsa is for members looking to explore the entire mountain over the two days but will make sure that they gradually ramp up the difficulty and the pacing throughout the event. Don’t expect to start the day on the hardest run the mountain has to offer, but plan on exploring and having the option to do so as your resilience improves. The clinicians will mix in a blend of technical instruction and opportunities for personal skiing/riding improvement as you explore the mountain together. Medium salsa is for those of you that feel comfortable pushing your limits in the intermediate and advanced zones of the mountain, but you are looking for some opportunities to improve your confidence and technique in those zones. Plan on working on tactics and techniques that will build skills for groomed runs, bumps and moguls, and tree sections on the mountain (if available).

Mild Salsa: Mild salsa is for members looking for personal skiing/riding improvement and instruction as you explore the intermediate and some of the advanced terrain on the mountain over the course of the event. Mild salsa will spend time building up the skills necessary to explore more difficult, varied, ungroomed, and possibly even tree terrain (if available). If you spend most of your time on blue terrain and some easier black terrain, then this group is for you. The clinicians are here to help you increase your performance, feel confident, and explore the mountain. Expect opportunities where the clinicians will offer instructional sessions and teaching segments to help the group members with their skiing/riding.
