If you are interested in membership at Trapdoor Ski Club, please read the following information.
A club with History
The Club was founded in 1963 by a close-knit group of 28 friends who in the main had met during their university studies. Early steps included selection of the “best” site available, finding those rare persons willing and able to act as the Club's trustees and relatives of substance willing to act as guarantors for the unavoidable bank loan needed to finance the project. The Trapdoor Lodge was built over the Summer of 1964-65 and was first occupied for the 1965 Winter in rather primitive conditions – a far cry from the conditions and comfort that the lodge offers today.
Over the past forty years, there have been numerous changes to the building including the largest extension undertaken in the summer of 1999/2000, which essentially doubled the size of the club.
