Loup Loup Ski Patrol

Welcome to the Loup Loup Ski Patrol. The Patrol is a group of over 40 volunteers whose mission is to provide a safe recreational environment and render aid & transport to anyone needing assistance. We are all members of the National Ski Patrol System and are trained in the Outdoor Emergency Care program. Our goal is to help out and have fun! When you visit the Loup be sure to stop in and check out our new building (built by the patrol) at the top of the chairlift. If you need assistance or just have a question, ask! That's why we're here.
