Trip Overview
SIGN UP BY JANUARY 10 AND SAVE $30!
Join BSSC for Presidents Day Weekend as we head to the heart of the world-famous Northeast Kingdom of Vermont for fun and great skiing and riding! Known for its incredible views (and Maple Syrup), Burke offers classic New England skiing and riding across 270 acres of groomers, moguls, steep pitches, and acres of amazing tree skiing.
With a casual and laid-back atmosphere, the slopes of Burke are known for being uncrowded and unpretentious. Home to the Burke Mountain Academy and now named as an official training and development site for the US Ski Team, you just may find yourself sharing a chair with an Olympic or soon-to-be Olympic skier training on some of the best terrain in New England.
We will be staying at the luxurious Burke Mountain Hotel. Located literally on the slopes, there is no truer ski-in ski-out property anywhere. Enjoy the outdoor hot tub and the après ski bar as skiers whiz past. The famous ‘Kingdom Trails’ also maintains miles of groomed and well-marked trails for Nordic treks on XC skis, snowshoes, and fat tire biking.
So join us for the holiday weekend as the slopes are calling with great skiing and riding!
Going with a significant other or a friend or two or three, pick the bedding that works for you. Going solo, we will do our best to match you with a roommate or opt for a single room!
*2-night options available. Contact Randy for details.

Things to know
Frequently Asked Questions
In general, BSSC trips are designed for adults, 21 or older.*
For overnight travel the ages range from twenties to fifties, with a mix of couples, groups of friends, and singles travelling solo. Sometimes the more adventurous or strenuous the activity, the younger the crowd might skew. With exotic or more costly arrangements, you are likely to find a few more “well-seasoned travelers” mixed in as they check off their bucket list! BSSC trips are about us taking care of all the details, so you can just enjoy yourself, and perhaps experience something new, with like-minded people.
*The participation of minors is considered on a case by case basis at the discretion of the Ski & Travel Director. Minors are permitted on BSSC Day Ski & Snowboard trips. Check the day ski trip policies for more details.
Yes! BSSC makes it easy and economical for the solo traveler. Our lodging options are spelled out clearly for each trip giving you the choice of room that best fits your needs.
BSSC traditionally offers “minimum occupancy”. Whether in a hotel or condo, it is typically two per room, and you each get your own bed. Nobody has to sleep on a pullout or rollaway. Select trips may also offer lower prices for triple and quad occupancy.
Single rooms may be available upon request for an additional fee. If traveling solo, we will match you with a roommate of the same gender and approximate age, or you may request to room with a friend or significant other of any gender.
For BSSC overnight travel, booking 3-4 weeks in advance is recommended. For week-long vacations, book early to guarantee your spot and get the best rates. Ski vacations are usually announced in the summer at a $100-$150 savings. Check each trip for specific deadlines and policies. The closer the travel date, the more complex and costly it might be to procure accommodations and/or airfare.
