Welcome to the Mother Lode Region's Women's Program

The MLR Women’s Program provides women patrollers with improvement in their practice, a like-minded community of growth, a support network, and leadership enhancement. We host women-centered events that focus on toboggan-handling skills and ski enhancement. We encourage anyone interested to attend--active patrollers, alumni, and candidates. Check out the schedule for event specifics.

Upcoming Events:

Brush The Dust Off

The Women's Program Advisors from MLR and ESR regions invite you to join our early season "Brush the Dust Off" day of skiing and toboggan skill refresher. The event is sponsored by Soda Springs Ski Resort.

Begin the day with a hands-on presentation on fitness and injury prevention stretching. After a couple of warm up runs and reminders of the key components for running toboggans with finesse, the majority of the day will then be spent handling toboggans in terrain that varies from gentle groomed to off-piste. In this supportive environment, watch the summer rust fall away as you brush up on your toboggan handling skills and gain new experience running a 4-handled toboggan. Soda Springs Ski Resort is providing us space to gather, tickets, toboggans, and discounted lunches to purchase (or bring your own lunch).

The day will conclude with a presentation from Truckee's Sport Haus about proper boot fitting, buckling and how correct fitting equipment impacts our ski performance. Please bring a beverage and a refreshment to share as we unwind from the day.

This women's event is sure to put a smile on your face and get you back in the groove for the new ski season! Sign up for this no-charge toboggan enhancement clinic on the NSP website.
