The area was expanded in 2019, providing approximately 30 acres of additional Alpine trails, a brand-new surface lift and improved snowmaking infrastructure. With these enhancements, there is now more than 1,700 vertical feet of total racing terrain, enough to accommodate full-length speed courses and as many as 18 slalom lanes or nine GS lanes per training session.
The new Golden Peak T Bar features a four-minute turnaround, which optimizes training sessions and increases productivity. The world-class mogul venue features 230 meters of bumps with pitches ranging from 25.6 to 31 degrees. It is the steepest in all of the Rockies, and is truly spectacular.
