The California Ski Industry Association and our member resorts consider the safety of our skiers and snowboarders our #1 priority. Stay safe on the slopes by understanding the unique mountain environment, skiing/riding within your ability level, dressing appropriately and following the responsibility code.

KNOW THE CODE. IT'S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

• Always stay in control, and be able to stop or avoid other people or objects.
• People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them.
• You must not stop where you obstruct a trail, or are not visible from above.
• Whenever starting downhill or merging into a trail, look uphill and yield to others.
• Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.
• Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
• Prior to using any lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride and unload safely.
