SAFETY ZONE

Tree Well Safety

With all the snow from last week, tree wells are still a serious hazard on the mountain

What is a Tree Well?

A tree well is a hollow/unstable area of deep, unconsolidated snow that forms around a tree's base. These wells develop because tree branches prevent snow from packing tightly near the trunk, leaving a hidden void beneath what appears to be solid snow

Why are they so dangerous?

If a skier or snowboarder falls headfirst into a well, the loose snow can collapse around them, making it extremely difficult to escape without help. Falling into a tree well can also result in snow immersion suffocation. 

PREVENTION TIPS

  • Always ski in the trees with a partner
  • Give trees extra space
  • Wear a safety whistle if you must ski in trees
  • If you fall into a tree well:
    • Try to stay upright (grab onto tree branches or the trunk to prevent sinking further)
    • Create an air pocket; use slow deliberate movements and call for help
  • If your partner falls into a tree well:
    • Act fast – every second counts; approach from the downhill side
    • Dig from the airway first to help them breathe

GUEST COMMENTS

Below are a few of the many guest comments we’ve received, we’ll continue to share these accolades weekly!

  • "We enjoyed Ladi Bartha our ski instructor! The best experience in learning how to ski again after 10-plus years.  He was kind, helpful and encouraging which made it the best experience!! Thank you!"
  • "Our ski instructor Anna Topel was wonderful. She made our experience great! My family and I visited for about a week. We are brand new to skiing and took private lessons with Anna. We don’t have enough positive things to say about her. She was patient with my kids and gave clear practical instructions to my husband and I. She was very knowledgeable, but her delivery was relatable and easy to understand."
  • "My daughter's private lesson instructor, Ben Welsh, was wonderful. She had a fantastic experience."
  • "Our instructor Mark Conlon was great with my son and we really enjoyed the ease and ability to go all the way to the top of the mountain as beginners."
