Sunlight Mountain Resort near Glenwood Springs is offering a risk-free opportunity to try skiing or snowboarding for the first time. Free two-hour group ski lessons are available every Thursday at 10:00 a.m. throughout January 2008. This is a great way to try out the sport at no cost!

To really get the hang of skiing or snowboarding, Sunlight Mountain Resort is also introducing the Learn To Shine program for new snowriders all winter long. Learn to Shine includes three days of lift tickets, daily two-hour lessons beginning at 10:00 a.m. or 1:00 p.m., and daily equipment rentals. Learn to Shine costs $215 for skiing and $230 for snowboarding. At the end of the Learn to Shine program, graduates receive a free five-day pass to Sunlight Mountain Resort to master their new skills.

Snow riders will find the resort to be a relaxed, friendly ski area. The uncomplicated trail system features 67 runs over 470 acres that funnel back to the base lodge. There is something for everyone, including cruising corduroy, steeps, and moguls. Every trail converges at the base lodge, so family members can keep track of each other easily.

Free lessons are offered at Sunlight Ski School on January 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31 in 2008. For either program, guests should arrive one hour before scheduled lesson times if they plan to use rental equipment. Lessons are subject to availability.
