Details

Leave the groomed trails and chairlifts behind with this one-of-a-kind cat skiing adventure with Olympic Gold Medalist, Jonny Moseley. Ten lucky skiers will embark on this full-day exploration of the out of bounds regions of Lake Tahoe via snowcat. With Jonny's expert guidance leading the way, each skier receives in-person feedback to help develop their skill sets. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy the pristine solitude of Tahoe's backcountry while logging 12,000 to 14,000 vertical feet of face shots and fun. No lift lines. No crowds. Just you, virgin snow and Jonny Moseley.

Kick off your adventure in Truckee, where you'll meet Jonny, and the guides from Pacific Crest Snowcats, who'll review the guidelines for backcountry cat skiing - a few rules go a long way when out of bounds. After caffeinating and meeting your fellow skiers, the group will shuttle to the trailhead where the snowcat is waiting to escort you into the backcountry. During the exhilarating ride, get to know Jonny, hear his Olympic tales and chat about his legendary skiing exploits and accomplishments.

Once the cat has crested the peak, it's time to click in and bomb down the high alpine mountainside. The morning session kicks off with a warm-up run or two, giving Jonny an opportunity to assess your style and make small adjustments that will reap huge gains. Thanks to his personalized feedback, you can instantly tweak old habits and learn new tricks to get you ripping through powder and slicing up the tree-lined terrain. With a break for a warm and hearty lunch served up on a sweeping backcountry peak, refuel and replenish before the big afternoon session.

As the day advances, so does the terrain. The group will be introduced to a more challenging landscape where your newly acquired skills are put to good use. Jonny will continue to monitor your progress and offer feedback, ensuring a day of steady improvement over increasingly difficult terrain. Need inspiration in the moment to tackle the tougher landscape? Jonny will throw in a few of his famous moves to keep the group motivated.

Wonderfully exhausted after a day of unadulterated fresh powder skiing, finish up with an apres-ski session around an outdoor fire pit. Hot toddies and delicious nibbles will be served as the group recounts the day's adventure. Now warm and toasty from the final festivities, board the cat for a sunset ride back to the trailhead, where you'll return back to Truckee and your adventure will come to a close.
