Required Skill Level

For safety reasons, guests at PC Powder Cats must be advanced or expert skiers and riders. That means you can ride an ungroomed black diamond run in any conditions (powder, slush, ice, crust, etc.). We do not have groomed terrain.

A word on powder skis and boards:
  • Once upon a time, skiers used to use 10-foot-long planks. The skis got shorter as technology improved. And then, along with most Americans, skis got fatter.
  • If you still rock early 2000s skinnies, power to you. BUT, if you’d like to get the most out of PC Powder Cats, bring skis with at least 100 mm. underfoot.
  • Boarders, almost any snowboard will be adept in powder. Even still, consider bringing a powder or freeride board. They will a) Float better, b) Save energy, and c) Prevent those unexpected wipeouts where your nose dives under the snow. Simply put: powder skis and boards = more fun for less work.
