Ski With Santa
Friday, December 25, 2026
10am - 12pm
Santa has been working on his technique and, thanks to our friends at the Mountain Sports School, he’s officially an intermediate skier these days! Look for Santa around Teewinot and the base of the gondolas starting at 10:00 AM, then catch him out on the hill as he makes his way down Après Vous and Casper. He’ll be skiing around the mountain until 12:00 PM, so keep an eye out!
And don’t forget to check the JH Insider app for clues to our holiday scavenger hunt. Santa has hidden a few presents around the mountain, and they’re waiting to be found!
Cross Country Skiing
Saturday, December 26, 2026
Head to JH Sports for cross-country rentals, or bring your own, then make your way onto the Grey Meadow Trail. Enjoy a family-friendly lap along the trail, with hot chocolate and cookies to warm you up along the way!
