tōst
Our most unique tradition

Complimentary Tōst

We believe that every day on the mountain is one worth celebrating.  That's why, with snow under our boots, we gather everyday* at 2pm to celebrate nature, the beauty around us, and freedom from worries.  Tōst offers guests a complimentary glass of bubbly, asks them to raise it up, salute their fellow skiers and wish them well.  It's truly our favorite tradition!

To participate in tōst, ski down East Ridge at around 1:30pm.  Look for the tōst sign on your right and follow the path through the woods to our one-of-a-kind ski-up champagne bar.  Be sure to be in line before 1:45pm; glasses are limited to the first 200 guests and tend to go quickly.  Be sure to bring your ID.
