Keystone Mountain - Skiing

Review

Intro

Whether or not you are can ski with the best of them, Keystone Mountain has a little bit for everyone. The Outback area features long intermediate and black diamond runs with plenty of bumps and secret stashes of powder. Plenty of bumps and long runs can also be found at North Peak mixed with harder blue runs and black diamonds as well. For those who like a little less speed or are just learning, Dercum Mountain has long and short green and blue runs. The A51 Terrain Park is one of the best you can find with all the jumps and pipes you could want. There is even a dedicated lift for the terrain park.

What Makes It Great

If you are up to the challenge, book a full day CAT Ski tour of Independence Bowl up above tree line. Keystone also features night skiing on specific days. Just down the road is the Keystone Nordic Center with tubing, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. Don't miss the Soup Bistro on your visit for delicious homemade soups sure to warm you up. Rentals and lessons are available at the resort as well as a wealth of shopping. Plenty of lodging options from condo rentals and motels can be found at the resort or close by. Restaurants serving quick bites and brews to Italian and Mexican are on the mountain, in the resort area or in the surrounding area. Keystone is also a great destination in the summer for lift service mountain biking, trail running and hiking.
