Description changed:
FSW was created in 2007. In 2006 six of us made a weekend trip up to Copper, which was when we first experimented with fursuit skiing/snowboarding. The experience and time with friends was so much fun that we wanted to share it with others. We organized some close friends, rented an amazing house for the weekend, and we’ve continued that tradition every year, expanding out to include many new furry faces.

What to Expect
FSW is a very welcoming, laid-back, communal environment. Many of the attendees know each other and have been friends for years. All are eager and willing to contribute toward everyone else’s enjoyment through providing rides, helping cook and clean, and participating.
We value and strive to create a safe, respectful, and responsible environment for all who attend, and continually adjust and improve based on attendee feedback.
We value and go to great lengths to provide you the best experience possible. We provide food for breakfast and dinner, as well as a variety of snacks and drinks. We provide a vast array of beers, spirits, and other items which are all unlimited and free to those attending. Games and music of all varieties will be provided as well.
Fursuits abound both on and off the slopes. Wear yours where and whenever you like. Other skiers on the slopes and those in the village love us and will often ask for pictures and/or hugs, so expect a lot of attention!
It’s often been said FSW is like a con where everyone you like is always at the same room party. We’re big on having fun and being furry!
We tend to congregate each night in the main house, but there are not official events other than our fursuit runs. However you like to spend your time is up to you.
Generally on Sat afternoon we all get together to do our official fursuit runs. We’ll have several spotters and those with cameras and/or video cameras. We’ll do 2-3 runs (you’re welcome to any number, but don’t feel obligated), then meet afterwards for tubing, which copper has very graciously agreed to provide us free of charge.
We’re not officially a non-profit, however we put 100% of our meager profits back into FSW. This will often manifest as new Go-Pros for recording, more amenities for you, and other improvements.
