Telemark
Tele Tuesdays
Tele Tuesdays are for the people! If you like to free the heel you have a home at Berkshire East. Tele Tuesdays are about celebrating the core culture of Telemark skiing, bringing likeminded people together for a midweek reprieve from the rat race.
Skills Clinics with discounted rentals run each Tuesday, rotating through topics each week.
Topics
- Learn to Tele
- Tip and Rip (Carving)
- Exploring Green
- Exploring Blues
- Refinements on Advanced Terrain
- Bumps
- Own the Lead Change
Show up in Tele boots and receive 50% off a lift ticket!
- Plus:
- Get a $1 coffee, hot chocolate, or fountain drink at Slopeside Cafeteria in the Main Lodge.
- Enjoy Berkshire East's signature brew - the Brewski - from our friends at Progression Brewing Co. for just $3. Have one in a can or pulled from the tap in the Crazy Horse.
"Tele your alpine friends - and snowboard buddies too - that $3 Brewskis on Tuesdays are thanks to you."

Tele 101 - Saturdays
The Telemark 101 is a package deal for first time Tele skiers that includes a 2 hour novice lesson, a NTN rental package, and a 4-hour flex all-mountain lift ticket.
*Please note this ticket is not available to purchase on weekends for the general public, and is only available as part of the Tele 101 package. *
Participants, at a minimum, must be intermediate alpine skiers to take this lesson. In a two hour block, guests will learn how to step into NTN bindings and the basics of telemark skiing, such as lead change and controlling the inside ski. Guests may sign up for this lesson twice, with the understanding that the instructor will teach to the lowest common denominator and it is a novice experience. Those taking to the sport quickly on the first day should check out our advanced beginner / intermediate group lessons or Tele Tuesday clinics.
