[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Eighty kilometers of groomed trails at 7,800 feet offer the most spectacular scenery and exciting terrain in the West. Located 1/4 mile east of Kirkwood on Hwy 88 (next to the Kirkwood Inn) and nestled in a beautiful alpine valley, our diverse terrain offers excellent skiing and snowshoeing for all abilities.  Bring your four legged friend along too – dogs are allowed on two trails, the High Trail located behind the Kirkwood Inn and the Outer Loop on the meadow.  Many trails feature interpretive signs providing for a more enlightening and meaningful visit.  The “Kiddy Kilometer” is sure to keep the youngest skiers engaged – this one-kilometer loop is lined with life size animal cut-outs and flip-up signs.  Sip on hot chocolate beside the wood burning stove in the day lodge, or warm up in one of our three trailside warming huts, then finish the perfect day with a scrumptious meal at the historic Kirkwood Inn.  Our friendly staff is always happy to share local knowledge and ski tips with you.
