Ski the Summit is a unique spiritual retreat offered by Mount Ellis Academy for 7th – 12th grade students. Participants will spend three days skiing three different mountains – Bridger Bowl; Big Sky;  and our own private slope, Bear Canyon Ski Area – while also having the opportunity to meet MEA students and staff, learn more about the programs offered at MEA, and grow closer to their peers and to Christ through daily worship and activities.  This is an unforgettable experience you won’t want to miss!  We will be offering mini courses on Tuesday and Wednesday for those students who want to come to Ski the Summit  but do not want to ski/snowboard.  Previous mini courses have included cooking/baking, photography, art, and rock climbing.  On Thursday, students and sponsors will get to meet all of our teachers, visit their classes, and explore what each department offers. You’ll have chances to earn scholarships across our academic and trades programs-and even take a shot at athletic scholarships!

Featuring Guest Speaker Darren Wilkins and Musical Guests from Walla Walla University
