Miramar
offers many 2-day weekend trips during the ski season.
These are always non-holiday trips (Holidays are
usually
3-day bus trips)
A 2-day bus trip leaves NYC on
Friday
evening and returns
on Sunday night. You
get 2 days of
skiing which is why we call it a 2-day trip.

the
lodge. The meals
are BIG.
Nobody goes away hungry!
At the time that you register for the trip you MUST inform
the trip leader
if you would prefer a special type of meal (either vegetarian or “no
red meat”).
This cannot be done at meal time as the food
shopping is
done prior to
our arrival.
Other
things you should know about our trips
-
There
is no
smoking in the lodge or on the bus.
-
There is a toilet on the
bus
-
Most
people
bring their own food/beverages for the ride up
on Friday. We make
only a 20 minute
stop in a rest area that is often very crowded and with limited food
choices.
-
Clean
sheets and towels are provided by the club
-
Most
rooms
have 2-beds & a sink. Two rooms share a connecting
bathroom/shower. On
full trips we
use the two 6-person rooms. Rooms
are assigned by the trip leader. You
cannot request a single room.
-
Bring
cash
or checks to pay for your trip and lift tickets.
-
All skis
and poles should be in a ski bag
which will remain on the bus overnight.
Please
only pack skis and poles in that bag as you will not have access to it
until we
arrive at the ski area in the morning.
