SHRED THE DEEP POW STASHES OF WHITEFISH MOUNTAIN RESORT THIS WINTER
For Intermediate Snowboarders – This 3-day, 4-night trip is designed for intermediate riders who want to level up fast. With three full days of coaching, lift line priority, and a small group of just five riders, you’ll get maximum time on snow and direct feedback from a qualified snowboard coach who’s there to help you push your riding further.
Whitefish is the ideal place to progress. The resort scores over 25 feet of snow each season, and with cold temps and consistent wind-loading, the mountain stays soft and rideable long after a storm. The mountain is packed with varied terrain that’s perfect for exploring and expanding your comfort zone. You’ll ride with a local coach who knows the mountain inside out, so you can skip the guesswork and head straight to the best spots—whether the snow is falling or the sun’s out.
After a day of coaching on the mountain, head back to the hotel, hit the hot tub, and recharge before we head out for dinner. Whitefish has an impressive food scene for a small mountain town, with everything from cozy pubs to wood-fired pizza and local favorites. You’ll stay in a modern hotel with great amenities and easy access to town. With lift tickets, coaching, guiding, and transport all included, all you need to do is get to Montana—we’ll handle the rest.

FOR INTERMEDIATE SNOWBOARDERS
This tour is best suited to intermediate snowboarders. If you’re confident on most groomed runs and starting to explore off-piste and treed terrain, this is the ideal trip to take your riding to the next level. You’ll spend three full days on-mountain with a highly qualified snowboard coach in a small group of just five riders, so you’ll get plenty of one-on-one feedback and personalized tips throughout each session. With lift line priority the entire trip, you’ll spend less time waiting and more time lapping, learning, and progressing.
WHITEFISH MOUNTAIN RESORT, MONTANA
Tucked into the northwest corner of Montana, Whitefish is one of those places that hits all the right notes—laidback town, big mountain, and deep, consistent snow. The ski area sits just outside Glacier National Park and catches over 25 feet of snow every season. Cold temps and wind-loading keep the snow soft and rideable, even days after a storm. Whitefish Mountain Resort is packed with terrain that’s perfect for progression—wide-open bowls, flowy tree runs, long groomers, and plenty of playful features to keep things interesting. It’s easy to explore, but big enough that you’re always finding new lines.
A TYPICAL DAY
After breakfast, you’ll meet your guide and make the short drive up to the resort. With your coach and guide leading the way, you’ll spend the day exploring Whitefish Mountain—chasing good snow, riding off-piste lines, dipping into the trees, and soaking up the unreal views. Along the way, your coach will be giving you real-time feedback and tips to help dial in your riding. After a full day on the mountain, it’s back to the hotel to relax and recharge—maybe hit the hot tub—before heading into town. Evenings are all about good food, cold drinks, and checking out Whitefish’s local bars and restaurants for a proper taste of Montana.
COMFORTABLE ACCOMMODATION
Throughout the tour, you’ll stay in a modern, well-appointed hotel that strikes the right balance between comfort and convenience. The location is spot-on—close to downtown Whitefish and an easy drive to the mountain. Rooms are warm, spacious, and set up with everything you need to unwind after a full day of riding, including plenty of space for your gear. Expect comfortable beds, cozy bedding, and all the essentials to make your stay easy. The hotel also features a heated pool and hot tub—perfect for soaking tired legs—and a relaxed lobby area if you just want to chill out. A basic breakfast is included each morning, so you’ll be fueled up and ready to go. Single rooms come standard, with twin-share available on request.
SMALL GROUPS
We keep our group sizes small—maximum five riders—so you get more personal attention, real-time feedback, and tailored coaching. Whether you're building confidence, refining technique, or pushing into new terrain, your coach has the time and space to focus on your riding and help you progress at your own pace. Smaller groups also mean more flexibility. We can move quicker, access better terrain, and adapt to conditions without the usual delays. And while the crew is tight, the vibe stays social. It’s big enough to share the stoke, swap stories, and ride with like-minded snowboarders—but small enough to keep things personal, focused, and fun.
PRE-TOUR SUPPORT
From the moment you sign up, we’re here to help you get ready. You’ll receive pre-tour emails with everything you need to know—arrival and departure details, where to meet your guide, what to expect on the mountain, and what to pack. We break it all down so you’re not left guessing. Whether it’s your first snowboard trip or your tenth, our team is here to make sure you’re feeling prepped and confident before you arrive. Have questions about gear, logistics, or the itinerary? We’re just a phone call or email away and happy to help.

DAY 1 – ARRIVAL DAY
Welcome to Whitefish. Hop on the airport shuttle from Glacier Park International Airport and head to the hotel. Check-in opens at 4:00 PM, but if you arrive early, you can store your bags, stretch your legs, and explore town at your own pace. Once checked in, take some time to settle into your room, unpack, and get your gear dialed for the days ahead. In the evening, you’ll meet your guide for a welcome session covering the plan for the trip, gear checks, and the latest snow and weather updates. Then we’ll head out for a welcome dinner at one of our favorite local spots—good food, good vibes, and yep, we’ve got the tab covered on the first night. It’s the perfect way to meet the crew and ease into the Whitefish rhythm. Most guests join solo, so expect an easygoing, friendly start to the week.
DAY 2 – 4 – GUIDING & COACHING
You’ll spend the next three days riding at Whitefish. Each day will follow a similar format:
Mornings – The breakfast buffet is open from 6:00 am and you can enjoy breakfast at your leisure. Your guide will advise the departure time the evening before which is typically around 8:00 am. Each morning your guide will explain the weather and snow conditions for the day and advise the group where you’ll be riding. Load the shuttle and head to the resort.
Throughout the day – You’ll spend three full days on the mountain, combining guided laps with focused coaching sessions designed for intermediate snowboarders. Your coach will provide real-time tips and feedback to help you progress. The coaching is hands-on but relaxed—it’s not about drills or standing around, it’s about riding together, learning by doing, and making the most of every lap. With lift line priority included, you’ll skip the queues and spend more time where it counts—on snow. Your coach will tailor their advice to your goals, helping you build confidence, improve technique, and ride more efficiently across varied terrain. Because we keep the group size small, there’s plenty of one-on-one time to ask questions, try new things, and get direct feedback. You’ll also benefit from your guide’s local knowledge—finding the best lines for progression, discovering mellow tree runs, and hitting spots you might not find on your own. By the end of the trip, you’ll be riding more confidently, tackling new terrain, and having more fun on your board.
Evenings – After a full day on the mountain, take the shuttle back to the hotel and kick into recovery mode. You’ll have time to unwind—soak in the hot tub, chill out in your room, or grab a drink with the crew. Each night, your guide will organize a group dinner at one of Whitefish’s great local spots. It’s a chance to swap stories from the day, share a few laughs, and settle into the rhythm of the trip before calling it a night.
DAY 5 – DEPARTURE DAY
Enjoy one last breakfast at the hotel before checking out. We’ll arrange your shuttle back to the airport, say our goodbyes, and send you off with a few more turns under your belt—and maybe a plan to come back next season.
WHAT IS A PROGRESSION TOUR?
A Progression Tour gives you the best opportunity to build your skills and grow your confidence riding powder, navigating trees, and working toward exploring backcountry terrain. Throughout the tour, you’ll be riding with an experienced and qualified snowboard coach who knows the resort inside out and will match the terrain to your ability and goals. You can expect to spend time riding off-piste, including in the trees, so it’s important that you’re comfortable with the idea of riding in varied and ungroomed terrain. While we always aim to find the best snow and most suitable zones for progression, conditions can vary—and guests should be prepared to ride in everything from storm days to bluebird laps.

That way you can secure your preferred travel dates and you won’t be disappointed. Bookings close 90 days before a trip departs, however most tours typically fill up well before this.
FITNESS
The best way to get the most out of your Mint experience is to build a bit of pre-trip fitness. You don’t need to train like an Olympian, but a solid base of endurance will go a long way. You’ll be riding three full, consecutive days on snow, so your body should be ready for it—especially your legs and core. Having the strength to ride all day and the cardio to keep a steady pace will help you stay sharp, recover faster, and enjoy every lap.

Traveling solo? You’ll have your own private room for the tour—no sharing required. About 99% of our guests join solo, so you’ll be in good company. Our groups tend to mix well thanks to a shared love of snowboarding and a mutual stoke to explore everything the destination has to offer. Whether you’re here to progress your riding, meet new people, or just enjoy a change of scenery, you’ll feel right at home. If you’re traveling with a partner or friend, twin rooms are available on request. Just let us know when booking.

ARE FLIGHTS INCLUDED?

The airport is just a short drive from town, and we’ll arrange your transfers between the airport and hotel as part of your tour package.
DO I NEED TRAVEL INSURANCE?
Travel insurance isn’t required, but we strongly recommend it for all guests. It’s a smart way to protect yourself in case of unexpected changes or disruptions. We suggest purchasing a comprehensive policy as soon as you’ve booked your tour—ideally one that covers trip cancellation, medical expenses, evacuation, baggage loss, and other unforeseen events. It’s a simple step that offers peace of mind before and during your trip.

WHAT EQUIPMENT SHOULD I BRING?
Whitefish can be seriously cold in winter, so it’s important to come prepared with the right gear. We recommend dressing in layers suited for riding in cold and variable conditions.
