Here’s How it Works
Meet at The Trailhead
Reservation Required.
Octane Adventures operates on-site out of the authentic Mongolian Ger across from Ten Mile Snow Park. You may diagonal park in front of our Yurt or there is parking available at the snow park across the street from our location. ALL VEHICLES PARKED AT THE SNOW PARK ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A SNOW PARK PERMIT.
You should plan to arrive at the Ten Mile Snow Park 45-60 MINUTES PRIOR TO YOUR TOUR DEPARTURE TIME, in order to sign waivers, inspect the equipment, get your helmet fitted, and receive a riders safety orientation. Always assume the road up to the sno-park may be snowy or slick. Please allow yourself plenty of time to make the drive up the mountain.
A LATE ARRIVAL TIME MAY CUT INTO YOUR RIDING TIME.
