Somewhere on the mountain at almost
every ski resort in the world are posted the 7 skier and snowboarder
"responsibility codes". These are reminders to be a safe and
considerate skier and snowboarder. You should memorize the responsibility
codes and incorporate them into your everyday ski and snowboard
routine.
Responsibility Codes
1. Be under control in such a manner you can stop or avoid
other people and objects.

2. When going downhill, and/or overtaking another
skier/snowboarder, you must avoid the skier/snowboarder below you.

3. Never stop where you obstruct a trail or where you are not
visible from above.

4. When entering a trail or starting downhill, yield to other
skiers/snowboarders.

5. Wear ski/snowboard retention straps or brake devices to
prevent runaway equipment.

6. Observe all posted signs. Keep away from closed
trails and other closed areas.

7. Know how to get on and off the chair lift or ask the lift
operator for help.
