​
Q. Are there season passes for Nordic Nights Skiing?
A. Yes! this year we are offering a Nordic Nights Skiing Season Pass!
​
Q. Do you have lessons for 3 year old children?
A. Our group lesson programs are designed for 4 year old children and up. Typically a 3 year old does not yet have the muscle development required to learn to how to ski or snowboard or the attention span needed to be in a group lesson. We will occasionally make an exception for a child who is almost 4 or turns 4 during the winter season. If your 3 year old really wants to learn to ski or snowboard, a private lesson is the best option! Our advise is to take the extra year to develop their love of playing in the snow and enjoying being outdoors during the winter!
​
Q. What size gear do you have?
A. We have a wide range of sizes for daily rentals, ranging from a toddler size 5 up through a men's size 16. Children must be 22 lbs or over for us to fit them for gear. For seasonal rentals, please call the rental shop at 518-381-4700 to see if we have the size you are looking for.

​
Q. Do I need to wear special clothing to ski or snowboard?
A. SnowSports occur outdoors in the cold, on snow. It is recommended that you dress in layers with a water-resistant or waterproof outer layer. For more recommendations on how to dress, please check our new to winter sports guide. ​
​
Q. Can I bring my dog?
A. Please leave your pet dogs at home. We have several dogs who make their home here at Maple Ski Ridge and they spend a lot of time in the lodge and on the grounds. We prefer our guests to leave their dogs at home so that our dogs can feel safe and comfortable in their home. If you must bring your dog, please keep them outside and on a leash. Service animals are of course welcome.
