Middlebury Mountain Club

Join us  for a documentary film festival using the power of film, art and ideas to inspire audiences to create a better world! Doors will open at 6:30 PM and there will be snacks and a free raffle!

Come celebrate fall with the Middlebury Mountain Club! We will decorate tiny pumpkins (that you can take home!) with paint, markers, and stickers, as well as enjoy some cider and apple donuts together on McCullough lawn. This is a great way to get to know the MMC board and guides, hear about upcoming trips and activities, and get in the fall spirit with your family and friends.

This event is open to all - skiers, boarders, and everything in between. Competition features will include rails, boxes, and small jumps. Anyone can compete! Or feel from to come and chill!  If you love live DJs, hot cocoa, donuts, night skiing, and prizes, then BE THERE and bring your friends!

A big yellow bus will arrive at ADK Circle at 4:30 pm and will depart the Snowbowl at 7:30 pm. Alternatively, feel free to drive separately or ride on the TVT Shuttle

Wilderness First Responder (WFR) is the industry standard for outdoor leaders. This 80-hour certification course covers everything in the WFA curriculum, then exceeds and expands upon these fundamentals in both depth and scope. Patient assessment, traumatic injuries, medical emergencies, environmental injuries, bites and stings, long term care protocols, evacuation procedures, and much more are all addressed. The format integrates classroom sessions with significant practical and scenario-based learning time.

This trip will introduce the Chic Choc participants to backcountry/Alpine touring equipment, uphill travel, and will serve as an assessment of skill prior to the Feb Break trip. On Thursday, January 9th, we’ll meet at the Gear room in the FIC at 4:30pm to introduce and fit participants with equipment.
On Friday, January 10th, we’ll meet at 12:30pm and travel to the Middlebury Snowbowl for a ski tour, using their uphill policy. We will return around 4pm.
***Previous alpine ski experience required***
 
Registration is required.

Join Middlebury Outdoor Programs and the Mountain Club for a week-long, February break backcountry ski trip in the Chic Choc mountains! The Chic Chocs in Quebec, Canada, have been heralded as the backcountry skiing mecca of the east and can provide some amazing alpine experiences. There are limited spots and all aspiring participants must fill out an application and be accepted prior to the lottery selection process.
Being that this is still the EAST, snow conditions can be variable based on weather.
