The Swap will be upstairs in the chalet!
Entry will only be allowed through the south entrance by the rental shop. 

We will have updated our Swap system for the 2025 year. Watch for emails regarding the change.
Everyone will need to reenter their information to become a seller this season.

The 2025 Ski Swap Sale October 24th & 25th

NO SALES ON SUNDAY

Equipment Check-In: October 23 (noon-8pm) & 24 (8am-5pm)

Swap Sale: October 24 (4:00pm-8pm'ish) & October 25 (8am-4pm)

Any equipment not picked up by 8pm the final day will be considered a donation and the Ski Patrol will dispose of the items.

(New terms and conditions apply for those selling items. Please see the "Ski Swap" page for details.)

If you are selling your gear, the check-in table will be near the double doors. 

The lines for selling items and buying items are separate. You will not be allowed on the sales floor to check prices. Please check places like Ebay, Facebook, and Craigslist for similar prices on your items. We will be checking bindings for indemnification onsite. Not all ski bindings are allowed to be sold at our swap. If the exact binding model is not on the list we have then we will not allow it to be sold at the swap.

Welcome to the Mount Kato Ski Patrol

Proudly servicing the Mount Kato Ski Area

Click around and see what you find. We are a fun group of people who enjoy skiing and snowboarding, and take pride in assisting injured skiers and snowboarders. All of our patrollers go through extensive training in Outdoor Emergency Care. (The Mount Kato Ski Patrol is an all volunteer service that services the Mount Kato Ski Area.) If you are interested in joining our patrol, click on the "What it takes" link. Every October we hold a Ski Swap, where the public as well as vendors can bring their winter sports equipment (new and used) to the area and the Ski Patrol will help sell it. Click the Ski Swap link to learn more.
