First Tracks, Orientation Ski Trip

Friday, January 6th, 2017

4:30pm-11:30pm

We will leave from Scott Blue at 5:00pm sharp and plan to be on the slopes by 6:30pm. Once we arrive at Cataloochee, meet at the group lodge (the first grey building on the right) where a BCC staff member will give you a lift ticket, rental form, and information for ski school. The BCC staff member will only give out lift tickets between 5:45 and 6:30pm. When the lifts close; return all rental equipment to the Cataloochee rental desk, and meet upstairs in the main lodge no later than 9:45pm. If you ride with BCC to Cataloochee it is required that you ride back to WCU with BCC. Plan on arriving back at campus between 11-11:30pm

Participants will need to bring their own warm clothes such as ski bibs, gloves, socks, and warm hat. Jeans and clothes made of cotton are highly discouraged. The weather is typically rainy, snowy, and/or cold so dress accordingly to stay warm. Dinner will not be provided so make sure to bring food or money for food. There is a snack bar in the ski lodge.

Reminder - Drinking at Cataloochee Ski Resort is not allowed on WCU sanctioned trips, no matter if you are of drinking age. If you are caught drinking you will be reported to Student Conduct at WCU. Please note that BCC has the right to refuse transportation to or from Cataloochee to any individual suspected of being intoxicated or under the influence drugs. If you are refused transportation it is your responsibility to find transportation home.
