If you do go on a busier day I do think the three pass in really all you need with the length of the lines.Īnswer: Since you aren't really planning on hiking, you won't need to worry much about muddy trails unless you hoped to do other activities which would take you out on the trails, except for possible closures or reduced hours at shops/activities/restaurants. As you get closer to the weekend everything gets busier. If you are in town enough days I would watch for the day with the least chance of rain, go on a Monday/Tuesday, and get there early before any afternoon showers pop up. Can eat up top (we didn't this year) with either food from the restaurant or pack a picnic. My husband and I found table in the shade and had a cocktail while enjoying the amazing summer day on the mountain. This was my 4 teens favorite, they rode twice and the coaster once. The slide line was much more slow than the coaster, so get to that one right away.

It will save a few minutes (my 4 boys ran ahead to get in line and I brought them the wrist bands once I got them). You can buy the bands/tickets online and then get right in line to pick up your wrist band. Get there early, really when they open or a little before. Haven't been since they were much younger and they wanted to go back this year. I arranged lessons for a couple in my party and liked all of the instructors.įour teen boys (16, 16, 14, 14) all had a blast. I found the staff support at the bottom of Peak 9 to be quite good, with very engaging and helpful folks at all stations. It's spacious, but fills up very quickly at lunchtime. The Maggie is at the bottom of Peak 9, your typical ski snack bar, with overpriced and overcooked food. The Peak 9 lifts do directly service the somewhat hidden Falcon Super Chair to the top of Peak 10 and its Black-only runs down. If you are an experienced skier looking to get up the mountain, starting at the bottom of Peak 9 is probably not your best bet. It can really move some people but on the weekends even this capacity is very quickly overwhelmed. The base area is well suited for rental, with a number of gear rental and retailers literally between the street and the base of the Quicksilver Super 6 chair. It can be crowded, so be ready for some waits. This area of the Breckenridge complex is best for brand-new/novice skiers and for solid Green and flat-groomed Blue skiers. It was ok, the cookies were very good and the deck was nice and sunny. The food was good and there’s a nice fireplace. We had lunch at the top (sky deck i believe). They were rewarded with some hidden shrines that were pretty cool. My kids did the dumps, which they claimed were a little hard to follow and very aggressive. The ride all the way to the bottom is long and fun, but then the gondi ride back up is also rather long. We banked a lot of vert, but the runs were a little repetitive since most of the lifts are more for laps. There is absolutely no beginner terrain and most of the blues were steep but well groomed.

There were lockers right at the base and we even used free cubbies for our boot bags. There were limited spots in the garage and at 9 am we grabbed the last, very narrow spot. The shuttle states that it only runs every 10 minutes and the garage only takes credit cards. We parked at the rio grande garage and had a very quick shuttle ride to the gondi.
