May at Greek Peak: Trail Prep, Mountain Magic & Summer on the Horizon
May has arrived, and the mountain is buzzing with energy as we roll into a season of big moves and fresh air. Crews are hard at work with slope upgrades and trail prep, setting the stage for mountain biking, ziplining, and all the summer fun to come.
The Campground is open, the sunshine is sticking around longer, and the next chapter of outdoor adventure is just beginning. It’s all happening this month at Greek Peak Mountain Resort—come catch the momentum.
ON THE MOUNTAIN
What’s New in KidzWorld? More Options, Same Big Smiles!
We’ve reimagined our classic KidzWorld program into something even better for the upcoming season—giving young skiers and riders more age-appropriate options while keeping the same trusted name families know and love.
Now, KidzWorld is the umbrella for two distinct programs: Mountain Minis and Trail Blazers, each designed to meet your child's age and skill level.
Mountain Minis (Ages 4–6)
Perfect for first-time skiers, this half-day, ski-only program stays close to the ground—on carpet lifts only—so your littlest snow lovers can learn safely and confidently.
• $89 for passholders | $159 for non-passholders
• AM & PM sessions available | Rentals: $30 add-on
Trail Blazers (Ages 7–12)
Ready to level up? Trail Blazers is your go-to for ski or snowboard instruction with both half-day and full-day options (lunch included in full day!).
• Half-Day: $89 (passholder) / $159 (non-passholder)
• Full-Day: $139 (passholder) / $249 (non-passholder)
• Morning, afternoon, or full-day sessions | Rentals: $30 add-on
No capacity limits, no stress—just smooth, snowy fun.
✨ Registration opens soon—don’t miss your spot in KidzWorld!
Join the Club: Mountaineers Returns for Winter 2025!
Looking for more than just a lesson? The Mountaineers Club is an 8-week winter program designed for young skiers and snowboarders (ages 7–14) who want to grow their skills and confidence while becoming part of a mountain-loving crew.
Saturdays OR Sundays | 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM.
Choose ski or snowboard track.
Rentals included.
Winter season dates TBA.
Limited space—pre-registration required.
Mountaineers commit to one weekend day, making it a consistent, progression-focused program full of camaraderie, fresh snow, and fun.
Heads up: Sundays usually sell out first—don’t wait to lock in your spot!
Snowmaking Upgrades Are Underway!
We're charging into summer with shovels in hand and big upgrades in the works! New snowmaking lines are already being installed on both Zephyr and East Meadow, bringing us one step closer to a longer and more reliable winter season. These upgrades are especially exciting as we look to expand beginner terrain and possibly introduce a beginner-friendly terrain park in East Meadow—more on that to come!
Over on Karyatis Way, brand-new water lines are going in to help boost flow and future-proof the system. And just added to the summer project list: Middle Pollux will be seeing some love too, with airline repairs and additional hydrants being installed to support better snowmaking on that side of the hill.
