“Thanks, Evergreen Outdoor Center. Absolutely the best ski experience that we have ever had. The whole family had a world of fun. From beginners to parallel skiing in 4 lessons. I highly recommend the experience to anyone from ages 3 to 40+. Thanks again!”

“Outstanding! Amazing! There aren’t enough adjectives to describe this trip, and this experience you have given us. The sports, the culture, the food, everything from day one to twelve has been amazing. It was a lot of fun, and you guys have been great. I’ll be back!”

“After all these years I finally got to do the Avalanche Skills Training course. Recommended to anyone who cares for their mates & themselves, and to have more awareness of the dangers out there. To the staff, especially Dave. Thanks, you may have saved my life!”

SEAN, AUSTRALIA

“Hey everybody at Evergreen Outdoors! We were a group of six absolutely awful beginners. Despite very achy legs, we are all glad we gave snowboarding and skiing a go! Thanks James – I’ll try skiing next time! Thanks to Dave for discounts, lifts and general tips, etc!”
