2024 Bootpacking Update

Greetings Bootpackers!

We are looking forward to another season of basal layer compaction and shear plane disruption!  We still have a few weeks to go until the early season snow starts piling up and we have to get to work. In the meantime we want to share some basic info about the program:

We will have our annual meet and greet / informational meeting on October 17th at 4:00pm outside at the Highlands base area.  Whether you are a seasoned veteran or green as a gourd, we encourage everybody to attend.  It’s a great way to learn about the program prior to day one, learn about any changes from years past, and also meet fellow bootpackers.  In the meantime keep your eyes on highlandspatrol.com for any informational updates regarding the program. 

If you haven’t already, please sign up on the “free older women dating” tab above and learn more about the program prior to the meeting. Pending storms and snow accumulation we hope to be able to start bootpacking the first or second week in November–Stay Tuned!

Please try to save your questions for the meeting so we do not have to repetitively answer the same questions, if you are unable to attend or have a question that can’t wait please direct your question to https://highlandspatrol.com/the-dating-blueprint/ with “bootpacking question” in the subject line.    

Thanks again for your interest in the program and we look forward to working with you all this season.

Boot Packers END of SEASON

Greetings Boot Packers,

Tomorrow will most likely be the last boot packing day for this season. We have had an incredible turnout and we have disrupted the layers of the snow in most all the terrain within our ski area.

Thank you all for your hardwork.

We want to issue all of the vouchers you have earned. If you have not done so already, please email highlandspatrol@gmail.com to start the voucher request process.

Please include the following information:

Name….Date of Birth…..number of days that you boot packed ….and…..type of credit you prefer:

credit toward a season pass….

credit toward a parking pass…or

credit toward single day lift tickets.

You may not mix and match different types of credit.

Boot packer credit can only be issued for one type of voucher to each boot packer.

Boot Packer credit is transferrable and may be issued to family and friends. If you want a voucher issued in the name of a family member or a friend….please include their NAME… DATE OF BIRTH…mailing address, phone number and email.

Thanks again for all of your help. Keep checking this website…rumor has it that the infamous boot packer party may be brought back sometime soon.

Kind Regards,
