*Parent Predicament Lift Ticket
A great option for tag-team child care, the interchangeable Parent
Predicament lift ticket allows parents to share a lift ticket for
the day. As one parent skis or snowboards, the other parent stays
with the child until they're ready to trade duties. Parents get a
two-for-one as the Parent Predicament lift ticket is the same price
as a regular full-day adult lift ticket.

*Free Lessons
One of Northstar Resort's best values is its signature free clinic,
offered Monday through Friday (non-holiday) for intermediate and
advanced skiers and riders ages 13 and older. Those interested
meet at the top of the Comstock Express chairlift where clinics
begin at 1:30 p.m. and wrap up by 3:45 p.m. Snow conditions and
the skill level of the group often dictate the area of concentration
for the lesson. The free lesson is available on a first-come,
first-served basis. A lift ticket or season pass is required.
