December Buck Hill Training Days

Midwest Masters will once again host training nights throughout the month of December at Buck Hill. This is an excellent opportunity to get yourself and your equipment dialed in for the season. 

Our head coach Peter Maxwell will work with the group on drills from 6-7PM and gate training from 7:00-8:45PM.

There will be GS and SL set side-by-side on Milk Run, so feel free to bring both pair of skis, or choose one discipline to train each night. The training is open to all Masters, Ski Challenge, MRL, NASTAR, College and even high school athletes (who must be accompanied a participating parent/guardian). 

Cost per session is $40. Training dates will be Mondays and Wednesdays - December 8, 10, 15, 17 and 22.

Registration is OPEN on our website: Register Here!

Wild Mountain Training and Mock Race

Midwest Masters will return to Wild Mountain for 2 days of GS training on Saturday, December 14, 2025 and Saturday, January 3, 2026

Each day will run from 9AM - 3PM. The group will start with drills led by our head coach Peter Maxwell and then will transition into gate training. Video review will take place during our lunch break and we will have an afternoon of gate training with timed runs after that. We will also offer all attendees the opportunity to get introduced to the world of Masters racing with our Mock Race during the afternoon. MWM representatives will walk you through the registration process, bibs, start lists and course inspection. We will then host a 2-run "Mock" race complete with timing and results. 

Space is limited to 18 participants per day, so be sure to register early! This event WILL sell out. Cost is $90 per day (does not include lift ticket).

For over two decades, Midwest Masters has kicked off the season with its

annual fall camp at Colorado’s world-renowned Copper Mountain. This year’s camp runs Monday through Friday, December 1-5, 2025, and continues to offer exceptional value and fantastic early-season preparation before the racing season gets into full swing. The five-day program includes a mix of drill and gate training, with Monday dedicated to drills only. Evening online video analysis sessions will also return, providing valuable feedback and insights off the hill. Coaching will be led by Midwest native, longtime coach and Masters ski racer Matt Fox.

For those planning to arrive early, Cooper Mountain will host the Alpine World Cup from November 27-30, 2025, featuring both women’s and men’s events. It’s a rare opportunity to watch the world’s top athletes compete just days before Midwest Masters camp begins.
