The best deal around those parts for adults are the Cannon adult programs. The programs run concurrent with the kids' programs but any adult can participate. They don't mention this on the website, but the first lesson is free if you tell them the old man sent you. (ok, I made up the part about the old man)
MEN'S SKI GROUP - $35 per session
The men’s seasonal program will focus on giving men an affordable opportunity to explore Cannon’s terrain and will focus on improving your skiing skills to obtain optimal mountain experience. This program will run this Saturday, December 16 and then on SATURDAYS starting January 6 through March 3 at 9:45am -11:45am and will emphasize skill building from one week to the next, though drop-ins are encouraged and welcomed.
WOMEN'S SKI GROUP - $35 per session
Intermediate Skiers 9:45am - 11:45am For those who can ski all of the green trails and some of the blue trails. We will focus on improving your skiing skills so that you will become comfortable skiing all of the blues and some easy blacks by the end of the season. No longer will you be struggling to keep up with your family, and you will discover the pure joy of skiing! There will be two levels of lessons for the intermediate skiers, a lower level and a higher level.
Advanced Skiers 12:30pm - 2:30pm Open to those who are comfortable skiing the entire mountain. We will work on improving your skiing skills as well as introduce you to mogul skiing, tree skiing and (if Mother Nature cooperates) powder skiing. Do you really want to understand those skiing moves your children are learning? This is the place!
