When you’re ready to go skiing or snowboarding in Klamath Falls, there’s a few things to keep in mind. While anyone can learn to ski or snowboard, it’s a good idea to know your limits and start with beginner-friendly runs if you’ve never tried the sport before. You should always be sure you have the right gear, and that includes proper-fitting boots and safety equipment. Plus, be sure to bring sunscreen – many first-time skiers find that their faces get burnt after a day on the slopes without SPF!
