It's over 3,100 acres of sweet skiing goodness.
Tips
Off Piste Snowmass Colorado is top ten for powder. But what might be more impressive is that the average skier density is 2 skiers per acre. Wow. If you truly seek the off piste, there are plenty of runs that could be considered confidence boosters, but if you know where to look, Snowmass Colorado will not disappoint. There are tons of cool places to lap until you can't stand up anymore at Snowmass. But a few of the best spots are The Hanging Valley – home to Lower Ladder, Cassidy's, Baby Ruth, and Frog Pond Glades along with numerous other unnamed lines. Or if you want to hike a bit head up to the Cirque Headwall – it's steep and sweet. Snowmass's backcountry gates also access some incredible terrain, but be careful in Colorado's unstable snow. Family Rating Snowmass is one of the best. Hands down, It has focused on a family fun atmosphere. The Tree house is world-class kids oriented family activity center. There is plenty to do with the family in Snowmass and the Snowmass Village. You can watch hit ski movie premiers, FIS World Cup races, Freeride Competitions, see a comedy show, dogsled rides, snowshoe, play tennis, go to the spa, go shopping, browse art galleries, ride the chairlift, visit the climbing gym, or take part in different kid's programs. The family will love Snowmass Colorado. And the skiing is some of the best around too! Food and Restaurants Along with world-class skiing, is world-class food.
