mountain safety

At Tenney Mountain, the safety of our guests, staff, and community is our number one priority. Before your visit to Tenney Mountain, please take a moment to review the following safety tips and guidelines to ensure a fun and safe time on the slopes. We believe that safety is a shared responsibility, and together we can help keep the mountain safe for everyone.

In an emergency on the mountain

Call the Ski Patrol phone number. Please note that this number is only available during normal hours of operation.

CALL SKI PATROL (603) 530 0114

your responsibility code

We ask all guests to observe YOUR RESPONSIBILITY CODE outlined below. Remember that it’s your responsibility to know and obey the code. Your behavior, decisions and actions have a direct effect on your safety and others on the slopes. Staying in control is the best way to stay safe.

  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 a 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.

For more information, watch the video below detailing the 10 tenets of The Code provided by the NSAA.

Lift safety

Review the following tips for riding lifts safely. If you are not sure how to ride a lift, ask an attendant or ski patrol for assistance. It’s important, and a part of Your Responsibility Code, to understand how to load, ride, and unload all lifts properly.

  • Be familiar with the type of lift you are riding, and ask for help if you need it.
  • Before loading, remove backpacks and secure loose items. Remove pole straps from wrists.
  • Look over your shoulder to watch the chair approach.
  • Sit all the way in the chair, with your back to the seat rest.
  • If the lift has a restraint bar, wait until everyone is seated, and slowly reach up and lower the bar. Do not attempt to lower the bar if you cannot reach it! Adults should always help kids to lower the bar.
  • Be aware of your surroundings while riding the lift. If you drop something, let it fall! You can always ask ski patrol for help retrieving the lost item.
  • As you approach the top terminal, prepare to raise the bar. Look for signs advising you to do so to help with your timing.

trail signage

You’ve arrived. You’re geared up and have a lift ticket. Now what? Go get a trail map at the base lodge or the ticketing desk. Take a few minutes to check it out. The lifts and the trails are marked on the map. The colored symbols next to the trails are the keys to enjoying your first few days on the slopes. Their shape and color indicate the difficulty of the trail.

HERE’S WHAT THEY MEAN:

Green Circle: Easier

Blue Square: More Difficult

Black Diamond: Most Difficult

Double-Black Diamond: Most Difficult – use extra caution

Orange Oval: Freestyle Terrain

These trail symbols are found across every ski resort in the country. It’s important to remember that trail difficulty is relative to each ski resort. A green circle at Tenney Mountain might be as tough as a blue square at a different mountain. Not a big deal. The trail ratings are consistent within each resort. So all the “Greens” at Tenney Mountain will be about the same difficulty, as will the “Blues” and the “Blacks”.

If you have any questions or need directions, ask a ski area employee for help. Familiarize yourself with the Tenney Mountain trail map and make sure the trail symbols off each lift fit your ability.

#RIDE ANOTHER DAY

collision prevention

The word FREEDOM is often used to describe snowsports! But it is important to remember that we are sharing the slopes with skiers and riders of all different ages, abilities and sizes. Your awareness of those around you and of the surrounding environment, as well as responsible skiing and riding, are the best ways to reduce the risk of a collision between you and another skier or with an object.

Complementing the Responsibility Code and its 10 tenets, #RideAnotherDay promotes three actions every skier and rider can take to help keep themselves and those around them safer on the slopes.

Be ready to slow down and avoid objects or other people at any time. Ski and ride in such a way that you are always able to control yourself regardless of conditions and avoid others and objects you may encounter on the run, groomed or otherwise.

Stay alert to what’s going on around you, especially other skiers and riders. Being aware of those around you and changing conditions will help you have a fun and safe day on the hill.

Ease up at blind spots, check uphill when merging onto trails, and give other skiers plenty of room when passing. Look out for spots on the run where traffic merges or you can’t see what’s coming next.

terrain park safety

Whether it’s your first time in the park or you’re a pro, it’s important to act Park SMART to keep yourself and others around you safe at all times. It’s how the crew here keeps the parks fun and safe for everyone, every season. Spreading the message is important. DONT GO IF YOU DON’T KNOW!
