General Information
The UW CSE Ski Day 2017 (New) is Friday March 3rd at Stevens Pass.

GETTING THERE:
Let's try to CARPOOL as much as we can.

LUNCH AND ROOM RESERVATION:
Hank is providing a pizza lunch starting at about noon. Please tell us if you prefer meat or vegetarian pizzas when you sign up!

THE AFTER PARTY:
Will happen in the same places where we get the pizzas.

GEAR UP:
Please dress warmly, bring extra layers, wear a water-resistant layer on the outside, and bring a change of clothes (or at least socks). If you lack appropriate clothing or don't know what appropriate clothing is, please post your needs or questions below under Ski Clothing. If you have extra gear, please check below and help out your fellow CSE snow bunnies. Remember sunblock and hydrate well in preparation.


SIGN UP:
Please Sign Up below, indicating whether you need lift tickets/rentals/lessons, by editing yourself into the table under your preferred option. You should also indicate your lunch preferences. Please sign up as soon as possible as we need to give the numbers to Stevens Pass.

Skier's Code

  2. People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them.
  3. You must not stop where you obstruct a trail or are not visible from above.
  4. Whenever starting downhill or merging into a trail, look uphill and yield to others.
  5. Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.
  6. Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
  7. Prior to using any lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride and unload safely.

Lift ticket only
$46.9 lift ticket -- a bargain!! $15 for seniors 70+. These are tickets only, not part of a package. Reduced from $67 regular lift ticket, and good on all lifts. Choose this if you want a lift ticket, but not a lesson.

Please edit the section to add yourself to the table below.

Lee Organick	meat
Leah Perlmutter	meat
Rowan Zellers	veggie
Ras Bodik	meat
Franzi Roesner	meat
Eric Zeng	meat
Yoshi Kohno	meat

Providing own ticket
Choose this if you will provide your own lift ticket, like if you have a season pass. Note that, once you factor in tax, our group rate is the same as the Stevens Advantage Card discount rate. The more tickets we buy as a group, the better perks we get, so we'd prefer Advantage Card holders buy a group ticket (one of the options above).

Shumo Chu	meat

Xuan Luo	meat
Pay Up
Check will be collected after the event (although you're welcome to pay before as well :). Make your check to "University of Washington."

Carpool Signup
If you are planning to drive and have extra seats in your car, add yourself to the first table. Keep in mind that you may be driving in snowy/icy conditions and you may need chains if your car is not AWD. For updated road conditions check the WSDOT website and take a moment to refresh your snow driving skills. It takes about 1.5 hours to drive to Stevens pass from UW in good weather/traffic conditions. Plan for not-so-good conditions :)

Please indicate where you will be leaving from, what time you will leave Seattle, what time you will leave Stevens, how many more people you can fit (please update this as your car fills), and whether you can fit skis/snowboard (basically, if you have a rack, or if the skis will take up a seat). If you like, you can also indicate who your passengers are. Please try to fill up your car by contacting people who need rides above.

If you are looking for a ride, email an available driver to make arrangements, then add yourself to their riding column here. If there are no available drivers, add yourself as a row to the second table. Hopefully, by Friday, the second table will be empty :).

Paul Vines	plvines@cs.washington.edu	Wallingford/Green Lake	7am	TBD	4	3-row SUV, so probably can fit any equipment inside	Djordje-confirmed, ?Adriana?, ?Edward?, ?Connie?

Ski Clothing
Rentals include ski boots (or snowboard boots, if you go that way).

Having the following clothes/equipments is recommended:

Upper body:

basic layer: wool, silk, polyester next to skin (cotton is not recommended since it is not warm when wet)
warm layer: any Insulation layer of your choice to keep you warm
shell layer: wind/water-proof is ideal
(Note: some insulated jackets can be used as two layers combined )

Lower body

pants: wind/waterproof is ideal
long socks: short socks are not ideal for ski or snowboard boots
Accessories:

Gloves/Mittens
Helmet (or at least a warm hat)
Goggles (if you are a first timer and would not go fast, sunglasses work well perhaps)
For more comprehensive information on recommended clothing, check out this Layering Basics.

If you don't have clothing appropriate for winter sports, post your needs here (goggles, ski pants, gloves etc.). If you have extra gear, please email people to help fill their needs. You can rent helmets from the rental shop!
