Ski Patrol – A Vermont Original

The Middlebury College Ski Patrol

The Middlebury College Ski Patrol is one the the most unique and longest running patrols in the country. With the exception of the Director and Assistant Director, the Patrol is staffed 100% by Middlebury College Students. This professional and medically trained organization is certified by the National Ski Patrol and Vermont EMS. Patrol provides first response medical care, hazard marking and mitigation, rescue, and ambassador services to patrons and staff of the Snowbowl and Rikert Outdoor Center. Patrol also maintains and patrols the uphill skinning/hiking routes.

Patrollers are happy to answer questions pertaining to terrain and conditions on the mountain (including uphill routes), feel free to stop in and chat. To find us on the mountain visit our base area and summit huts at the Snowbowl, the ticket desk at Rikert, or ask any staff member to contact Ski Patrol via radio. On the mountain you’ll see us in Red coats with white crosses. Patrol can be contacted direct by phone at 802-443-7613.
