Open to All at Bromley
What the day costs, all of it
Every cost for this program day
| Cost | Notes | |
|---|---|---|
| Our program fee | $20 | This is the only part the code inclusive waives, and it waives it in full. Anyone can use it and nobody will ask why. |
| Uphill access (ticket or pass) at Bromley | $20 | In person that morning, and it can be applied toward a full lift access ticket if you want to stay and ride the lifts afterwards. An Uphill New England season pass covers this instead, and it is valid at every mountain we partner with. |
| Touring gear rental, only if you need it | $75 | $90 standard at the Potter Brothers shop at Bromley, less $15 for our participants, reserved by phone. |
| Most you would pay | $115 | Fee, ticket and a rental setup, if you need one. |
| Least you would pay | $20 | Our fee waived with the code inclusive, and your own gear. |
If our program fee is what would stop you joining us, use the code inclusive at checkout and our fee is waived in full. Anyone can use it, there is nothing to apply for, no documentation, and nobody will ask you why. To be clear about what the code does and does not do: it waives our fee and nothing else. Uphill access is priced by the resort and rental gear is priced by the shop, so neither one is ours to waive. What we have done about those two instead is negotiate them down as far as we can, and every number is in the table above.

Pick a date below. Our fee is $20, and if that is a barrier use the code inclusive at checkout and our fee is waived in full. The Bromley uphill ticket is $20, bought in person that morning, and that $20 can be applied toward a full lift access ticket if you want to stay and ride the lifts after the program finishes.
What this is
A beginner-friendly, no-drop day of ski touring and splitboarding at Bromley. Our volunteers teach skins, uphill technique and transitions, and the group regroups together. You should be comfortable skiing or riding down a blue square trail.
What is included
Instruction from our volunteers, and a group that waits for you. Not included: uphill access and rental gear, both of which are priced in the table above.
Day of timeline
Check-in 8:15 to 8:45 on the first floor of the base lodge, behind the fireplace. On snow by 9:00. Back to the lodge around noon. Bromley Mountain is in Peru, Vermont. Park in the main lot and come to the first floor of the base lodge, behind the fireplace.
Cost, tickets and what if money is tight
Registration for this program is $20. If our program fee is what would stop you joining us, use the code inclusive at checkout and our fee is waived in full. Anyone can use it, there is nothing to apply for, no documentation, and nobody will ask you why. To be clear about what the code does and does not do: it waives our fee and nothing else. Uphill access is priced by the resort and rental gear is priced by the shop, so neither one is ours to waive. What we have done about those two instead is negotiate them down as far as we can, and every number is in the table above.
The Bromley uphill ticket is $20, bought in person that morning, and that $20 can be applied toward a full lift access ticket if you want to stay and ride the lifts after the program finishes.
An Uphill New England season pass covers the uphill access at every mountain we partner with, so if you uphill more than a handful of times a season it pays for itself and you can skip the ticket window entirely.
A comparable guided day of instruction costs about $150. Donors, sponsors and volunteers cover the difference, which is why the price on this page is what you actually pay.
Cancellation and weather
If nobody has registered by the Thursday before, we cancel the day. Weather calls go out the evening before. If we cancel for any reason you are refunded in full.
No drop, and no apologizing
We move at the pace of the group and we regroup together. Nobody gets left behind and nobody apologizes for being slow. Read our full policies.
What you need to be able to do
No uphill experience at all is needed. That is the part we teach you, on the day, from putting skins on to transitioning at the top.
The one thing we do ask is that you can get yourself down a blue square trail. We are not downhill instructors, and the descent is your own. If you are not there yet, a few lessons first will make this day far more fun.
What to bring, and renting gear
Weather-appropriate layers, a helmet, water and a snack. If you do not own touring gear, we have a shop or rental partner at every location we run and we have negotiated a discounted rate there for our participants. See Plan Your Trip for the gear guide, the layering guide and sizing.
Uphill rentals come from the Potter Brothers shop at Bromley, at 3984 Vermont Route 11, open daily 10:00 to 5:00. A standard alpine touring demo setup is normally $90 and they offer it to our participants for $75. Reserve by phone on (802) 824-5522, and say you are on an Inclusive Ski Touring program. They have no online booking and no published email for the Bromley shop, so calling is the only way. If the Bromley line does not pick up, their main number is (845) 338-5119.
See a day for yourself
Three minutes of an actual program day, filmed on snow with our participants. It is the fastest way to know whether this is for you.
Thank you to Bromley
Bromley Mountain took us on as our first Vermont partner and gave us a full season in their inaugural year with us. They also let the $20 uphill ticket count toward a full lift ticket, so anyone who wants to keep riding after the program is not paying twice.
