Introducing the Advanced Locals Program at Mt. Ellen—a fresh offering for expert skiers eager to take their skills to the next level. Designed exclusively for the committed skier who thrives on Sugarbush North’s most challenging terrain, this program is similar to the popular Advanced Series at Lincoln Peak while offering a unique community experience at Mt. Ellen.

Over the course of three consecutive Saturdays in January, February, and March, participants will join a cohort of dedicated locals who are passionate about pushing their limits on the mountain. Led by our team of expert instructors, the Advanced Locals Program offers targeted coaching focused on fine-tuning technique, enhancing tactical decision-making, and mastering the steepest, most technical terrain Mt. Ellen has to offer.

This is more than just a ski clinic—it's an opportunity to connect with fellow advanced skiers in a collaborative and challenging environment. Whether you’re looking to perfect your turns on the black diamonds, gain confidence in variable conditions, or refine your approach to moguls and trees, our expert coaches will guide you every step of the way.
