Our Masters Ski Mountaineering program is perfect for those who want to stay active, refine their uphill and downhill skills, and enjoy skiing as part of a welcoming community. Participants benefit from exclusive access to the UOP’s West Peak ski touring terrain and its machine-groomed intermediate hill—ideal for building confidence and technique.

Training takes place on-snow Tuesday and Thursday mornings with most sessions held at the UOP (locations may vary depending on conditions). For those seeking a full fitness experience, you can pair this program with our Masters Strength & Conditioning sessions. It’s a great way to challenge yourself, meet fellow skiers, and enjoy the mountains all winter long.

Looking for Off-Snow Conditioning?

Our Masters Conditioning Program is an optional add-on for Nordic Masters athletes who want structured, year-round fitness support. Held at the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Center of Excellence, sessions focus on strength, conditioning, and recovery to complement on-snow training and optimize performance. Training is offered twice per week in three blocks: summer (June 9–Aug 28), fall (Sept 8–Nov 20), and winter (Dec 1–Mar 5). Athletes may join a single block or participate throughout the year for consistent progression.
