Brundage Mountain Resort at McCall will offer free lift tickets for its beginner chairlift, Easy Street, throughout the upcoming 2015-2016 ski season. “We want to give people a ‘free sample’ of the Brundage Mountain experience because we’re confident that they’ll fall in love with the sports of skiing and snowboarding,” said April Whitney, resort spokeswoman. Visitors of any age can visit the ticket office to pick up a free Easy Street lift ticket any day of the season.

The lift accesses the resort’s bunny slope, which this year will also include a new groomed forest trail as part of a beginners’ terrain garden. “This will give beginners, young and old, a new way to get their first taste of tree skiing,” the resort said on its website. Children age 6 and under already were eligible for free all-mountain lift tickets at Brundage. There’s more info here.
