AS SEEN IN THE 2011-2012 FREESKIER RESORT GUIDE (November 2011 Issue)
The information in this Resort Directory is meant as a tool for the reader to research and plan for, and maybe let off a little mental steam before, this season. Few resorts can claim to be in the highest percentile of North America’s hundreds of resorts, which isn’t meant to take away from those not included in the Freeskier Resort Guide.
Each resort, from South to North and East to West, has its own niche. At each resort no matter how small, you can get off the lift and let gravity pull you down the hill, which is the basic premise of skiing. So dive into this extra information as an added bonus to our Resort Guide and start planning your winter trips before that nervous energy makes you scratch holes in your skin like an addict kept from their drug of choice.
Lose yourself in 3,148 acres of groomers, glades and bowls spanning three mountains. With one of Colorado’s longest ski days you can make the most of your day with family and friends on the mountain. For adventure seekers, there’s guided snow cat skiing and endless hike-to terrain. Or improve your skills at the Keystone Ski and Ride School, where you can take a daily lesson, get private instruction for yourself, the kids or a group. Plus everyone can enjoy one of America’s best terrain parks, A51, which has a variety of features to fit any level. There’s always an après scene, village activities and great lodging deals. All of this awaits you just 90 minutes away from Denver International Airport.
Keystone is home of the top-ranked A51 terrain park featuring 60 acres of meticulously groomed jumps and jibs for every level. A51 always has creative, new and progressive features for every level. Rails, jibs, boxes, jumps and a dedicated chair lift. Go session with team rider Jossi Wells in one of North America’s best parks.
