MN Slope Safety
Understanding How to Be Safer on the Slopes
We partner with our members and other industry associations to promote safe, responsible enjoyment of skiing and snowboarding in Minnesota.
NSAA together with many other industry associations and sponsors has created safety programs to protect skiers and riders on the slopes. Smart Style, Know the Code, Lids on Kids, Chairlift Safety and the National Safety Month are just a few programs created to keep all skiers and snowboarders educated and safe.
Your Responsibility Code
Know and Obey the Code. It’s Your Responsibility.
Protect yourself, protect others. With common sense and the ten points of Your Responsibility Code, you can have a safer day on the slopes. The National Ski Areas Association (NSAA) believes education, helmet use, respect and common sense are very important when cruising down the mountain. NSAA developed Your Responsibility Code to help skiers and boarders be aware that there are elements of risk in snowsports that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce.
