Winter Tire School

Our Facility

During the winter, The 4x4 Center operates at a 3,000-acre mountain ski resort located at over 3,000 feet of elevation and with an average annual snowfall of over 25 feet, providing the ideal location for our Winter Tire School. We begin preparing our facilities in early December including a pure ice skid pad, mid packed & hard packed skid pads, snowy back roads, glare ice driveways to simulate the different surfaces winter drivers encounter.Classroom facilities are located both at the hotel and next to our testing grounds located ½ mile from the hotel. When you are not driving, warm viewing areas are set up to keep you are comfortable throughout the duration of the course. The primary vehicles for winter training are Jeep Rubicon Unlimited’s & Toyota RAV4’s.
