A hand­ful of ski resorts are par­tic­i­pat­ing in an awe­some new trend known as San­ta Claus Ski­ing, or San­ta Day. It’s pret­ty sim­ple — dress like San­ta and get free lift tick­ets to top class resorts like Whis­ter BC, Alyeska, Mt. Rose, The Canyons, Sun­day Riv­er, Bolton Val­ley, and Win­dam Mountain.

It’s only fit­ting for a resort to give away lifts to San­ta. After all, he is a very well endowed phil­an­thropist. Here are some of our favorite San­ta Clips of this year.

The Canyons

Wind­ham Mountain
