Ski Patrol Training Camp

The Ski Patrol Training Camp was initially established to instruct employees of the resort in the procedures involved in monitoring the slopes and rescuing wayward or injured skiers. Nowadays, they've simply adjusted the curriculum a bit... along with the name of the area. Notice that the words "Blizzard Beach" have been hastily painted atop the Ski Patrol Training Camp logo on the sign below:

Look even closer at that picture, and you'll even discover Ice Gator's real name. Turns out, he's really Joe Gator. The "Ice" nickname makes him sound much cooler, though, as does the way he signs the Training Camp completion certificates: "Ski ya later!"

The attractions at Ski Patrol Training Camp are designed to appeal most to pre-teens, those too mature for Tike's Peak but not quite ready for the big thrills up on Mt. Gushmore. From the slides to the "Thin Ice" iceberg walk to the T-bar drop, there's plenty of fun to be had.
