Summit County Ski Areas Gear Up for an Exciting 2024-25 Winter Season

As the first snowflakes fall, Summit County, Colorado, is buzzing with excitement for the 2024-25 ski season. During the recent Summit Chamber of Commerce’s COO Ski Area Summit, representatives from major ski resorts like Copper Mountain, Breckenridge, Keystone, Arapahoe Basin, and Loveland gathered to share their plans for the winter, offering glimpses of exciting new developments and enhancements aimed at elevating the guest experience.

What’s New This Season?

Summit County is home to some of the best ski resorts in the country, and this season, each is stepping up to ensure a memorable experience for skiers and riders.

  1. Copper Mountain: Copper Mountain is unveiling a series of upgrades, including the replacement of the Lumberjack lift with a high-speed version, which will improve access to the popular beginner and intermediate terrain in West Village. There’s also an expansion in parking facilities, a move that will make day-trips and weekend visits far smoother for guests.

  2. Breckenridge: Breckenridge has long been a favorite destination for skiers from around the globe, and this year, it’s going big with a new lift on Peak 8. This upgrade will reduce wait times and increase capacity, allowing more guests to access the renowned high alpine terrain. Breckenridge’s emphasis on improving its infrastructure is all part of its mission to offer seamless access to some of the best ski runs in North America.

  3. Keystone: Keystone Resort is continuing its expansion into Bergman Bowl, offering more expert terrain and off-piste skiing. This new development caters to those looking for an adrenaline rush and the thrill of untouched powder. With additional lift-served terrain, Keystone is enhancing its reputation as a family-friendly resort while catering to advanced skiers and boarders.

  4. Arapahoe Basin: Known for its challenging terrain and long season, Arapahoe Basin is introducing a new parking reservation system to manage congestion, making it easier for visitors to plan their trip and secure a spot. The goal is to provide more efficient access while maintaining the relaxed, independent vibe that A-Basin is famous for.

  5. Loveland Ski Area: For those looking for a no-frills, affordable option, Loveland Ski Area remains committed to its tradition of offering accessible skiing. The focus here is on maintaining an affordable experience, perfect for day-trippers and those who want to avoid the hustle and bustle of larger resorts.

Why the Excitement?

With new lifts, expanded terrain, and improved amenities, Summit County’s resorts are not only preparing for another busy season but are also focused on creating a world-class skiing experience. Each mountain has invested in projects designed to reduce wait times, expand terrain options, and improve access, ensuring skiers and riders of all abilities can enjoy the slopes.
