UNLV Snow Club · Las Vegas, NV

We ski from
desert to summit.

Skiers and snowboarders based on a campus where it never snows. We plan trips to ski resorts, split the cost of lodging, food, and gas, and get first-timers strapped in for their first run.

FAQ

Before you sign up.

What do we do?

We provide UNLV students an affordable way to experience snowboarding or skiing for the first time alongside bringing together those who are already experienced through organized trips to ski resorts across the western US.

Are we beginner friendly?

Yes, we allow all skill levels! Whether you are getting your first tracks or a frequent shredder, you are welcome to join us on any and all of our trips.

The club is also actively pursuing partnerships with local ski shops and resorts to make the experience more affordable and accessible.

How much does it cost?

There are no dues to join. The only cost is tied to trips themselves — lodging, food, and gas, split evenly among everyone who goes. Lift tickets, rentals, and gear are separate, and you're responsible for those on your own.

How do we get there?

Right now we carpool to our destinations. We're working on establishing a more consistent transportation method.

Where do we stay?

For every overnight trip, we book an Airbnb close to the resort that still fits within our budget.

How do we sign up?

Trip sign-ups will happen through a Google Form, shared over email, social media, and our website. You'll fill out a short questionnaire covering the trip details, and once you submit it, you're all set.

In order to receive email notifications from the UNLV Snow Club, please be sure to register with us on the UNLV Involvement Fair by clicking "Sign Up Now" at the bottom of the webpage.

How do we pay for trips?

Trip payments are the best and only way to secure your spot after signing up. Payments are collected strictly through Zelle or cash payment. Exceptions are allowed, but must be requested and approved and may incur additional cost.
