The Knee-Hi Seasonal program for kids ages 4 -7, offers young skiers the chance to learn
through educational, engaging games and on-snow activities and is also offered as a daily group
lesson. Our groups average a student-instructor ratio of 4:1, and beginner Knee-Hi groups use
an innovative team teaching method utilizing our state-of-the-art learning facility and gentle
incremental terrain progression for quick and fun learning.

skiers who are dedicated to improving their alpine skiing and racing skills. The race team
competes in USSA races sponsored by NHARA based upon age and ability.

in fact, one of our former students, Jack Auty, just made the U.S. Olympic Ski Team!”, said Bob
Hoyt, co-owner and president of Purity Spring Resort. “It’s great to see families returning every
year and kids who learned to ski at King Pine, bringing their kids back to learn. We are looking
