Join fellow PSCers on the Blue Ridge Ski Council's 2023 Winterfest trip to Lake Placid, NY!

Lake Placid was the host for the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics. Nearby Whiteface Mountain was the venue for the 1980 Olympic alpine events, featuring the longest vertical drop (3,430') in the East. We'll be staying with other BRSC clubs at the High Peaks Resort in the town of Lake Placid, with free shuttles to and from the mountain and other Olympic venues. An optional day trip to Gore Mountain is included.

The estimated package price of $1,276 includes:
  • BRSC bus to/from the D.C. or Baltimore area (TBD)
  • 5 nights double occupancy hotel room at the High Peaks Resort
  • daily breakfast at the hotel
  • welcome party, après ski social, farewell dinner
  • optional ski day at Gore Mountain
  • 4-day adult lift ticket for Whiteface & Gore
  • free resort shuttle
$34 discount for junior (ages 7-12) or senior (70+) lift tickets.
An optional 5th-day lift ticket is available for $52.

There's lots to do and see in and around Lake Placid for non-skiers, too!
See the trip flyer for additional details.

$25 discount for sign-ups by Sept. 30, 2022.

Refund cut-off date: Sept. 30, 2022

We recommend travel insurance to protect your investment in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

Payment By Schedule Only
You must be a member of the Peninsula Ski Club or another BRSC club to sign up for this trip.

Single travelers will assume the extra cost of a private room (single supplement) if a suitable roommate cannot be found. To eliminate such risk, single travelers are encouraged to make mutual arrangements for a roommate and to specify their roommate at the time of trip sign-up. Two singles who do not wish to room together will each incur the cost of a single supplement if no other acceptable roommates are available. In some cases, lodging capacity and bedding configurations may limit the number of singles that can be accommodated.
