China-Peak-Mountain-Resort

Not only does China peak offer you re-hire the next season, but they also provide free employee housing, meaning you get to live in lakeshore , on the mountain peak for 3 months while you work in the snow. Depending on what department you go into , will vary with what other types of goodies till receive. For example I worked in the rental shop so I got free rentals , and even got to use the DEMO high performance equipment. Not to mention my boss let us take hour long lunches to get some snowboarding time in! You meet people from all over the world ! Truly a wonderful place to work

There were many hard working people who left because management doesn't know how to do their job. They're very selfish and will do anything to get a quick buck. They see you as just a worker even if you do work hard go above and beyond most won't care. There are around maybe 2 managers that are actually good. The benefits you get are just ones that are used at the resort. They'll work you to exhaustion and throw you around to different departments because no one wants to work here. We didn't get lunches If it was too busy or breaks. Pay is good but other resorts pay more. Some rarely get promoted no matter how many years you've been here.

China Peak Mountain Resort is a place I hqve been visiting since I was a kid. I am an experienced snowboarder and I thought working up there would be a great experience. It was for a while but the combination of working nine hour days with the living conditions which included a small trailer shared with five other employees and the added work of shoveling ice and snow from my roof, walkways, parking lot, etc. This made it very difficult to be rested adequately to perform my duties.

Every day was a new day
I learned a lot about myself and others around me
Managemant were very helpful and always verry attentative
Their cultere was to keep the guests happy and give them a onderful experience to ensure a possitive experience and guarantee another visit.
The hardest part would be working on powder days when its a whiteout and you cant even see your hand in front of your face
The most enjoyable part would be seein your friends and guest on a dily basis al doing the thing they all love to do at the place they want to do it

My day @ China Peak as a lift operator included motor house checks, assigning attendants to stations, setting up loading and unloading zones, starting,running, and closing of chair. The hardest part of this job would have to be flipping of chair pads due to the fact  that the chair in which I operated was a 3 person chair. What I've learned in the years I've worked there is the mechanisms behind operating a chair lift, making the surrounding environment area safe for guest.

Fun and easy place to work.  Management is good .  Must be to work early in the morning to clean snow of lift chairs and make sure they are in good working condition.  The only draw back is driving to work on heavy snow days.  Sometimes the roads will not be clear. They do have housing on the grounds if you choose to live there.

while living up there, your co-workers treat you like family, (even if certain people don't like you)  they still welcome you there with open arms and treat you like family. it's a great work experience (especially if you enjoy socializing with people). Learn to snowboard, ski, work one or more departments if given the opportunity.

It was fun and a great experience. I got trained for communication skills working with all computers and phones,learning  how to communicate on the mountain and at the hotel as a front desk receptionist, knowing how to handle emergencies that happend at the hotel, overall a great experience and more skills I've learned to have for the future.

Working here you will meet really cool people, however management here sucks. It's also super slow working here except for December and a little bit in January, so if you don't want work that is extremely slow it's best to look else where.

It’s a mountain resort! I don’t work… I get paid to have fun. 
People are there on vacation and they want to have fun. It’s my job to provide a safe and fun learning environment for my ski students. 
And I get paid to ski…What’s not to love?
