Pro Tips to Nail Your Closing Day Pond Skim
Pond Skimming Tips:
Speed is your friend.
Don’t lean back; keep your weight centered and tips up.
Bend your knees and keep your hands forward.
Bring an extra pair of boots for the day.
Wider skis (most skimmers say) help with float.
Wear a costume!
Have a blast!
Toyota Ski Free Friday & Deck Party!
Friday, March 6th 2026

What is Toyota Ski Free Day?
The DRIVER of any TOYOTA who comes to the designated Ski the NW Rockies ski area on the designated day will receive a FREE lift ticket VALID FOR THAT DAY ONLY. No vouchers or passes are required. Just drive your Toyota to the mountain on that day.
Toyota representatives will be in the parking lot at each resort for each event under a Toyota tent. As a customer arrives in their Toyota they receive a free lift ticket for that day. It’s that simple.
If multiple people show up in a Toyota and they all show proof of ownership, ONLY THE DRIVER OF THE TOYOTA THAT IS THERE WILL RECEIVE THE FREE LIFT TICKET.
You all are very creative! Find out more here!
Be prepared to be directed into parking lot #4 (directly across from the Nordic Center) to pick up your swag and lift ticket; no reservation is needed other than to show up in your Toyota!
