All camp options include lane fees, coaching, video analysis, evening presentations, a goody bag, a camp shirt, door prizes, and Booster Strap and Leki demos.

Because Big Sky Resort will not be open to the public, season’s passes and IKON passes are not valid for use during the camp. Due to high demand, the resort requires all participants to register for the entire 6-day duration of the camp. If you cannot participate for all 6 days, there is no price break.
