Resort Policies

Ski patrol and Guardian Air at Arizona Snowbowl.

Mountain Safety

Arizona Snowbowl is committed to promoting slope safety. With six national safety awards from the National Ski and Snowboard Association, Arizona Snowbowl strives to keep its guests safe and to educate skiers and snowboarders about slope safety. In addition to those using traditional alpine ski equipment, others on the slopes include snowboarders, telemark or cross-country skiers, skiers with disabilities, skiers with specialized equipment and others. Always show courtesy to others and be aware that there are elements of risk in skiing and snowboarding that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce.

Skier Responsibility Code

Know your ability level and stay within it. Observe Your Responsibility Code listed below and share with others on the slopes the responsibility for a great snowsports experience:

  1. Always stay in control. You must be able to stop or avoid people or objects.
  2.  People ahead or downhill of you have the right-of-way. You must avoid them.
  3.  Stop only where you are visible from above and do not restrict traffic.
  4.  Look uphill and avoid others before starting downhill or entering a trail.
  5.  You must prevent runaway equipment.
  6.  Read and obey all signs, warnings, and hazard markings.
  7.  Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
  8.  You must know how and be able to load, ride and unload lifts safely. If you need assistance, ask the lift attendant.
  9.  Do not use lifts or terrain when impaired by alcohol or drugs.
  10.  If you are involved in a collision or incident, share your contact information with each other and a ski area employee.

Winter sports involve risk of serious injury or death. Your knowledge, decisions and actions contribute to your safety and that of others. If you need help understanding the Code, please ask any ski area employee.

Mountain Safety

Arizona Snowbowl is committed to promoting skier and rider safety and has established the Winter Rules! and ParkSmart programs to encourage and enforce safe skiing and riding behavior. Under these programs, all skiers and riders must be responsible, treat each other with respect, be considerate, and know and comply with the Arizona Skier Safety Act, Your Responsibility Code, Arizona law, and the Park Smart program.

MOUNTAIN CODE OF CONDUCT

Arizona Snowbowl reserves the right to terminate skiing and riding privileges on a first offense of the Code of Conduct if it determines, in its sole discretion, that such action is appropriate. Especially egregious behavior could mean that an individual is banned from the slopes indefinitely. It is the individual’s responsibility to understand, and adhere to all rules, laws or regulations of the resort, city, county and state.

The following will not be tolerated:

Fast and/or reckless skiing/riding.

Refusal to show and/or relinquish your pass to a mountain employee when requested.

Violent behavior, or abusive, foul or threatening language.

Skiing/riding in a closed area. It is your responsibility to know what trails or slopes are open and closed. Skiing/riding in a closed area is illegal and you may be prosecuted and fined.

Going over or under a rope or past another closure indicator is also illegal and you may be fined.

Riding a lift or skiing/riding while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Actions or behaviors that in our judgment may endanger your safety or the safety of others.

Violating the law, including the Arizona Skier Safety Act.

Drugs: Arizona Snowbowl operates under a special use permit issued by the Coconino National Forest. Drug use and possession is illegal on Federal property. We have a strict policy against substances at our resort and we ask that you please respect our policy.

Alcohol: Only designated Arizona Snowbowl outlets may allow for open containers on our decks, patios and base area. Alcohol is not allowed to be consumed in the lift line or on our lifts.

ARIZONA SKIER SAFETY ACT

The Arizona legislature established as a matter of law, that certain dangers and risks are inherent in the sport of skiing. Learn more about the bill on the Arizona Legislature website.

COLLISIONS

You must be in control and avoid the person downhill of your path.

Arizona Law requires that a skier involved in a collision with another skier that results in an injury shall not leave the vicinity of the collision before giving the skier’s name and current address to an employee of the ski area operator or a member of a paid or voluntary ski patrol. This does not prohibit a skier from leaving the scene of a collision to secure first aid for a person who is injured in the collision. If a skier leaves the scene of a collision to secure first aid, the skier shall leave the skier’s name and current address as required after securing the first aid.

Lift Safety: Under Arizona state law, you cannot board a lift unless you have the knowledge to negotiate or use the lift safely, or until you have asked for and received information sufficient to enable you to use the lift safely. You may not use a lift or any ski trail while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Slow Zones: Certain areas and trails at the Arizona Snowbowl, indicated on the trail map in red, are designated as SLOW ZONES. Please observe these posted slow areas by maintaining a speed no faster than the general flow of traffic. Space and speed are especially important in these areas. Fast and aggressive skiing will not be tolerated.

Slow Zones to Know:

Hart Prairie/Tenderfoot/Tinhorn/Bambi

Aspen Meadows

Southern Belle

Meadows and Stump Patch

Sundance

Lower Bowl

Log Jam

Wild Turkey

Round Up

Signage – For all Ability Levels

Various informational and caution signage is located throughout the ski area. Please read, understand and follow all rules and related signage. Skiers and riders should be advised that a green circle, blue square, or black diamond trail at Arizona Snowbowl is not necessarily the same as a green circle, blue square or black diamond trail at other resorts. The system is a relative rating of trails at each resort and does not compare trail difficulty between resorts. Skiers and riders should begin with the easiest terrain and then move up in difficulty as their ability permits. Some terrain may be closed due potential hazards. Please respect our signage and closures.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Arizona Snowbowl discourages the use of electronic devices (cell phones, music players or earphones) while skiing/riding, or loading or unloading lifts.

HELMET USAGE

Arizona Snowbowl highly recommends wearing helmets for skiing and riding. Skiers and snowboarders are encouraged to educate themselves on the benefits and limitations of helmet usage. The primary safety consideration and obligation under Your Responsibility Code is to ski and ride in a controlled and responsible manner. Helmets are available for purchase and rental at the Hart Prairie Lodge, and for purchase at the Agassiz Lodge. Arizona Snowbowl supports the National Ski Areas Association’s Lids on Kids initiative, which focuses on educating parents and children about the importance of helmet usage.

IN CASE OF INJURY

If someone is injured, remain calm, cross skis or place a snowboard securely in the snow above the accident.

Call Ski Patrol at 928-214-4005, or call 911.

Patrol will ask for the number of the phone from which you are calling and your location, age, sex/gender, event, and about the resources available to you.

CAUTION

Grooming equipment, snowmobiles, snowmaking equipment, and other vehicles may be encountered at any time.

While rare, both inside and outside of the posted ski area boundary, avalanches may occur at any time without warning. Become educated on how to reduce the risks through your own education, actions, and awareness.

Terrain Parks

The terrain parks at Arizona Snowbowl are a great place to take your skiing and snowboarding to the next level, but we always want to make sure our park riders are safe.

It is important to be mindful of your ability level and not take on anything too challenging. Our three parks are designed for skiers and riders to progressively learn how to handle different features.

Some resorts designate features as small, medium and large. Be aware these ratings are determined by size, not degree of difficulty, and are relative only to that resort. Freestyle Terrain use, like all skiing and riding, exposes the user to the risk of serious injury. Prior to using freestyle terrain, it is the user’s responsibility to become familiar with all instructions and posted warnings and to follow Your Responsibility Code and PARK SMART.

Service Animal Policy

Arizona Snowbowl is committed to providing recreational opportunities on our unique
National Forest lands for all our guests. Some of those guests with disabilities may
require the assistance of a Service Animal to access certain areas of the resort. The
law* defines a Service Animal as any dog that is individually trained to do work or
perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical,
sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability.
The following are NOT service animals: those animals whose sole purpose is to provide
emotional support, well-being, comfort, or companionship or to serve as a crime
deterrent. Therapy dogs visit nursing home residents, hospital patients, etc. Those are
not individually trained assist one individual with a disability in their activities of daily
living. Therefore therapy dogs are also not “service animals”.
Individuals with disabilities can be accompanied by bona fide “Service Animals” in all
public areas of the Resort including the Arizona Gondola during summer/winter Scenic
Operation periods.
● Only select cabins can accommodate Service Animals to reduce allergen impact
on other guests, these cabins may be identified with a small paw print on the
window.
● Your Service Animal is required to have a ticket, this complimentary ticket is
available when you purchase your ticket online @snowbowl.ski (or by scanning
the link below) and explains the inherent risk to your animal and considerations
for loading and unloading the Arizona Gondola.
In the interest of safety, service animals will not be allowed on chair lifts or in ski terrain,
including tubing hills, or on any ride or attraction that is not equipped or designed for
accessibility to service animals. Due to size and weight constraints, the use of Miniature
Horses is not permitted on the Arizona Gondola for safety concerns related to the lift. If
you require a service animal that is restricted from an area or activity, the Resort will
make reasonable accommodations as long as requirements for safe operations are met.
Guests will be asked to provide the Resort with a minimum of 72 hours advance notice
regarding accommodations needed for service animals.

View the full Service Animal Policy here.

Drones

Using drones at Arizona Snowbowl is not permitted. Those caught breaking the rules may have their drone confiscated, their skiing privileges suspended or could even be fined.

Tips From Ski Patrol

Drink plenty of non-alcoholic liquids. Your body’s tendency to dehydrate is greater at higher altitudes.

Ultra-Violet rays are more severe at higher elevations.  Protect your skin from the effects of the sun and keep in mind that the snow reflects the sun’s rays.  Wear sunscreen rated at least 30 SPF or higher.

Wear eye protection such as sunglasses or goggles. These should filter both UVA and UVB rays and be rated at 90%.  Eyes can sunburn just like your skin.

Packed snow can be abrasive. We highly recommend wearing garments that cover your hands, arms and legs completely.

Be prepared for quickly changing weather conditions. Dress in layers with your outer layer of clothing being of a water repellent fabric.

Wear or carry a ski hat with you. Sixty percent of all body heat is lost out of the top of your head.

On especially cold days, be aware of the potential for frost-bite. Drink warm fluids and take breaks often.

Children In Backpacks

To ensure safety, children riding lifts at Arizona Snowbowl must be able to load, ride, and unload the lift without being carried. Children in backpacks or chest packs are not allowed on any lifts or ski trails at Arizona Snowbowl.

Arbitration Provision 

Please read this section carefully. It affects rights that you may otherwise have.

This Arbitration Provision provides for resolution of most disputes through arbitration instead of court trials and class actions. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court, uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and discovery is more limited. Arbitration is final and binding and subject to only very limited review by a court. This arbitration clause shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Binding Arbitration. This provision is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of or relating to this Lift Ticket Agreement, your Lift Ticket and your relationship with us. Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or use of the Power Charge Card and your relationship with any Power Pass Resort company or any subsidiary, parent or affiliate company or companies (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory) will be resolved by binding arbitration, except that either of us may take claims to small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such a court.

Opt-Out. Notwithstanding the above, you may choose to pursue your claim in court and not by arbitration if you opt out of this arbitration provision within 30 days from the earliest of the date you purchased or used your Lift Ticket (the “Opt Out Deadline”) after this Agreement has gone into effect. You may opt out of these arbitration procedures by sending us a written notice that you opt out to the following address: Arizona Snowbowl Attn:Tickets Department, [PO Box 40, Flagstaff, AZ 86002]. Any opt-out received after the Opt Out Deadline (allowing three (3) additional days for mailing) will not be valid and you must pursue your claim in arbitration or small claims court.

Arbitration Procedures. For all disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first send a written description of your claim to our Customer Service department at [email protected] to allow us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. You and we each agree to negotiate your claim in good faith. You may request arbitration if your claim or dispute cannot be resolved within 60 days. Any statutes of limitations will be tolled during this 60 days.

Arbitration Rules and Remedies. The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement. The AAA Rules and information about arbitration and fees are available online at www.adr.org. You and we agree that this Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law, and not governed by state law. Any arbitration will be held in a reasonably convenient location in the state in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim, and must follow and enforce this Agreement as a court would. Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction.

Costs of Arbitration. Upon filing of the arbitration demand, we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees other than the initial $200 filing fee, and for claims of less than $1,000, the Resort will reimburse you for the filing fee within 30 days of receiving a written request from you. Each party will bear the fees and expense of its own attorneys, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration. However, for claims under $10,000 as to which you provided notice and negotiated in good faith as required above before initiating arbitration, if the arbitrator finds you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, we agree not to seek an award of attorneys’ fees in arbitration even if an award is otherwise available under applicable law.

Class Action Waiver and Jury Waiver

You and we each agree that any proceeding, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you and us that this class action waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement will be void as to you. If you opt out of the arbitration provision as specified above, this class action waiver provision will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other customer, can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt out procedure set forth above. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, you and we each waive any right to a jury trial.
