The Arapahoe Basin Ski Area is located at Keystone, Colorado and averages 350 inches of snow annually.
There are 105 trails serviced by 7 lifts. Lessons are available for beginner level skiers. The Terrain Parks provide additional fun. The ski season at Arapahoe Basin usually begins in October and can stretch into June.
Although Arapahoe Basin has mostly advanced and expert terrain, there are some trails designed specifically for beginner and intermediate skiers.
Out of the 105 trails on 900 skiable acres, sixty percent are advanced and expert levels. The longest run is one and a half miles long.
A variety of food and lodging options are available offsite yet close to the ski area. Nightlife for the Après Ski crowd is abundant in town.
This is a small ski area that most people just pass by on their way to the bigger resorts. I must say that this little gem provided a great time for us. The fresh snow made for a fun day. Usually small resorts have long lines but not at Arapahoe. We literally had no wait time. What a lovely, little ski area! Roseann Lahey
