Three corrections: (1) Ski in / Ski out refers to the building or condo one stays in while at a resort and it's proximity to skiable terrain / lifts. It does not refer to the overall resort itself - otherwise every resort would be ski in / ski out if you lived near by. (2) Loveland Ski Area is before the Eisenhower Tunnel if traveling from Denver - so is easier and faster to get to than Keystone. (3) Similarly, Eldora Ski Area is only 49 miles from Denver - Keystone is 69 miles.

Finally! A very informative video with the need to know information. My 9 year old is still somewhat new and we are hitting Keystone for the first time on the 12th. He's convinced he is going to learn some beginner tricks at the "play ground" this year. I'm so happy to hear they have options for those not so great with getting on and off the lift just yet.

It was really nice to not see it from an expert skier/snowboarders point of view since my son is still very much a beginner. Thanks

Going to Keystone Feb 16th. My 10 year old son broke his leg skiing 2 years ago, so is very hesitant when out skiing again this year. He is comfortable on "not steep" hills. Are runs like schoolmarm and the other beginner areas, pretty flat, but just long, or do you pick up some decent speed?
@mtnkds3 жыл бұрын
There are a couple areas on Schoolmarm where you can pick up some decent speed. You might think about sticking to the beginning area then gauge how he's feeling and go from there.

If you have never snowboarded or skiied before you would probably be okay with just the lesson. But if you are a quick learner or want to give it a go by yourself then lift tickets would be the way to go as well.

As an intermediate is it possible to go up to the bowls? Or is it super sketchy? Is there a way besides the $500 Cat Tour to see the peak and if not capable get back down without snowboarding? I’m headed up there March 27th/28th
@mtnkds3 жыл бұрын
Keystone isn't the easiest to ski the bowls. There are actually hiking trails up to ski each peak, but its like a mile trek for each. Which isn't super fun in ski gear, the snow cat rides are definitely the easiest way. If you are an intermediate skier that's been skiing for years then the bowls are definitely doable. It is just important to know your own limits.

I disagree completely. Keystone is the lesser of the 4 Vail resorts in the area. Dercum is always overcrowded. North peak funnels everyone into the "freeway" runs to get back to the lift. Outback is fine but nothing special.
