Volunteer as a Mountain Host!

Spirit Mountain is looking for passionate volunteers who want to share their love of Spirit Mountain with guests as part of the Volunteer Mountain Host Team during the winter season. Mountain Hosts commit to providing exceptional guest service within the resort and on the mountain while sking or snowboarding throughout the winter season, scheduling days from December through April. As ambassadors of Spirit Mountain, members of the host team excel in providing information, giving directional help, problem-solving and offering friendly guest assistance in everyway. 

Available Types of Hosts:

• Outdoor Host: This host is primarily located outdoors helping guests park, with gear, way find, etc. 
• Indoor Host: Provide a warm welcome to guests, offer information about the resort, and direct visitors to various services and activities. Assist with administrative tasks such as answering phones, handing out brochures, or helping out in Guest Services and/or walking around the chalet to be a chalet "monitor" or wayfinder.

Help with the rental process or instructional spaces on the lesson hill for workshops or group lessons. Guide school groups during their visits, ensuring a fun and educational experience on the slopes.

Responsibilities may include answering first aid calls, providing first aid, monitoring trail conditions, providing assistance on the slopes, restocking first aid stations, and supporting the team during special events or busy weekends. All ski patrol members are volunteers dedicated to maintaining a safe environment on the mountain.
