Winter Park Resort is a Colorado favorite located about 67 miles northwest of Denver. Originally built by the city of Denver as a winter park for its residents, Winter Park Resort has continually operated since 1939.
The ski area is known for its early and late snow with terrain for all ability types. Winter Park spans across two distinct mountains and is home to a great mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced trails. Mary Jane Mountain is home to amazing tree skiing, world-class moguls, and wide-open alpine bowls.
The resort contains modern amenities with an extensive well developed trail system. The village base contains multiple lodging, dining and shopping options.
Ski and Snowboard Terrain:
The resort consists of three interconnected mountain peaks (and seven "territories") — Winter Park, Mary Jane, and Vasquez Ridge — which share a common lift ticket. Mary Jane, opened in 1975, has a separate base area and is known for its moguls, tree skiing, hidden huts and generally more difficult terrain. Skiing magazine ranks Mary Jane the top mogul skiing area in North America, including the above-tree line terrain of Parsens Bowl. Vasquez Ridge, opened in 1986, offers intermediate terrain and mogul runs. With a summit elevation of 12,060' and a base elevation of 9,000', Winter Park offers 3,060' of vertical, 3,081 acres of skiable terrain, and 162 trails. The terrain mix is 24% Green (39), 39% Blue (63), and 37% Black/Double Black (60). Annual snowfall is over 327".
