TERRAIN

• Beginner 14%:
  Breckenridge boasts some of the best learning terrain anywhere. Skiers & riders will find most beginner trails located off Chair 7 on Peak 8, including a portion of the 3.5 mile Four O' Clock run, the longest trail at Breckenridge.
  
  
• Intermediate 31%:
  An intermediate's paradise, Peak 7 is home to 7 new gently rolling more difficult runs, accessed by a six-passenger SuperChair. Undoubtedly the local's favorite, Claimjumper is located on Peak 8 in addition to Northstar and Crescendo. Two high-speed SuperChairs on Peak 9 access more than 10 intermediate trails for non-stop skiing & riding.

   

• Advanced 19%:
  Duke's Run on Peak 8 offers a winning combination of both bumps & groomed terrain. Take the T-Bar up to Pika, Ptarmigan, White Crown & Forget-Me-Not for wide-open bowls & stunning views. Peak 9's Peerless is a great place to learn how to master the bumps, while bump masters will appreciate 6-Chair, especially on a powder day. A quick ride up the Falcon SuperChair on Peak 10 wisks skiers and riders to three advanced intermediate groomers, steep & deep bump runs, & the legendary glades of The Burn.

   

• Expert 36%:
  Peak 7 offers vast steep terrain without the trees at a 45-degree pitch. On Peak 8, the experienced skier & rider can enjoy amazing alpine vistas from atop Horseshoe Bowl (lift access) or Imperial Bowl at 12,998 ft via the new highest lift in North America! Hike to Lake Chutes for a 55 degree pitch (extreme terrain), between 10 & 80 feet of cornice, rocks to jump & of course, fresh tracks. Peak 9 features tree skiing at it's best. The Windows is an easy hike (anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes depending on a skier or rider's speed) from the Patrol Hut atop Peak 9. The South Side of Peak 10 sports big fat bumps, hidden kickers and glades - all without seeing another soul (or at least many souls).
