Vail's 43rd season promises to provide skiers and riders with new programs, events and experiences that deliver something for everyone.
Vail offers 5,289 acres of the most exciting and vast adventures you can imagine. On a busy day Vail averages just four people per acre- there's plenty of elbow room. Choose from perfectly groomed corduroy trails to Volkswagen-sized bumps on the Front Side or head straight to one of the seven colossal Back Bowls to make your own powdery first tracks; you've got six miles to explore. Blue Sky Basin is an experience all its own with 645 acres of gladed trees, cornices and naturally formed trails that feel miles from civilization. Everyday skiers and riders find something new. For traditional terrain park lovers, the Golden Peak Terrain Park and Pipe is home to big-time events with a superpipe, numerous jumps and hits and a unique log rail park. Three smaller parks, Bwana, Mule Skinner and Hunky Dory, allow a more progressive approach with features that stand lower to the ground. With more than 300 days of sunshine, 346 inches of natural snow annually and 34 lifts to get you there, at the end of the day only you will know where you found your secret adventures in Vail. And if you're not sure how to begin the Vail Ski & Snowboard School has many specially designed programs that will comfortably propel you into your next adventure.
