12 Best Ski Resorts in Colorado

"A destination for backcountry purists, this mountain forgoes crowded lifts and groomed runs in favor of a single-lift, hike-after-you-ride experience with guided and unguided options; heli-skiing single-run and full-day packages expand access to extensive alpine terrain. The environment demands avalanche gear for all participants, and the nearby town's coffee shop and local brewery provide straightforward breakfast and après-ski options like burritos, tacos, pizza and desserts." - Brandon Perlman Brandon Perlman Brandon Perlman (also known as Mr. Luxury Ski) is one of the world’s foremost experts on luxury travel, specifically the upper echelons of ski, alpine culture, and outdoor lifestyle.

A Guide to Silverton, Colorado

"An extreme-skier’s paradise offering both guided and unguided skiing and boarding: a chairlift takes you to the ridge for either a helicopter-pad heliskiing experience or a hike to secret stashes of powder, and the mountain has become popular enough that a second chairlift is being added." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50. She now splits her time between Colorado and Paris, ensuring she doesn't have to live without skiing or L'As du Fallafel. Travel + Leisure Editorial Guidelines

Not much to look at from the base. Muddy parking along the road. An old double lift, a school bus converted into a rental shop. A barely functioning school bus shuttle.. But the terrain from the top of the lift is phenomenal! And the heli skiing is a must-do.. What a ride!

Don't expect much on the amenity side of things but expect a lot of exceptional skiing and riding terrain. One lift that tops out above 12,000 feet and most runs require a hike to access. You also hike out and catch a bus back to the lift. No beginner runs or really even intermediate runs as it's all black diamond and above but quite the exceptional runs and the snow can run deep as well. Bring your big boy and girl pants and enjoy the challenge.

Wow! What an amazing place. Skiing in its purest and most difficult form. Any superlative you can think of applies. Big Mountain. All Backcountry. No frills. Mandatory training before you even get on the one single old 2 person chairlift. They don’t even rate the runs. They start at Double Black EX and go up from there. Want bigger? Hop on a heli for a run or 6. Every run involves a hike ranging from 10 minutes to a 90 minute slog. The Mecca of skiing. 🎿

Absolutely amazing experience, the guides are top notch and the helicopter pilots are absolutely professionals! The slopes are steep and the pow was deep! Love this unique place 😍

Roof is the man! Roof was our guide for two days and 3 heli drops. We saw way more terrain than we ever could have on our own. Roof put in extra work to make sure wind didn’t interfere with our heli experience. Roof is one of the people giving Silverton its unique character. Can’t wait to shred with him again next year!

Great guides. Really steep terrain, it's not for beginners. Tons of fun and adventure. Be ready to hike at 12k feet, not too much hiking, but it's awesome. It's very local and like ski areas used to be 30 years ago. They do an amazing job.

I've been multiple times and will continue visiting in the future. This is not your typical ski resort experience. Make sure you're in good shape if you want to get your money's worth. Riding in the helicopter is novel. The ticket tent can be a bit of a cluster in the morning, so sign your waivers ahead of time.

Unreal, unforgettable skiing. I will remember this place for the rest of my life. Spent two days skiing the best untracked powder. Even with days old snow, we found amazing glade and bowl skiing. Not for the faint of heart. Respect the mountain, respect your own skills and only do what you are comfortable with. This place is no joke.
