BIPOC Programs

Description

On Saturday, February 10, 2024, as part of the Mt. Washington Backcountry Ski Festival, we hosted two special programs: a BIPOC Beginner Ski Tour at Cranmore Mountain and a BIPOC Intro to Backcountry Tour on Mt. Washington.

The day was centered around the identities and experiences of BIPOC individuals, creating intentional spaces where their unique perspectives and narratives were not only acknowledged but celebrated. These programs provided opportunities for connection, skill-building, and empowerment in the backcountry.

Stay tuned—by December 2024, we’ll be announcing exciting plans for our underrepresented athlete programs for the 2025 winter season. We look forward to continuing this important work and creating even more opportunities for inclusion.
