One of the “most notable ski area enhancements in the past decade,” argues Rob Katz, chairman and CEO of Vail Resorts. The Peak 6 expansion features 543 additional acres of high-alpine, intermediate bowl skiing, 10 new trails and 2 new chairlifts. This 23% increase in skiable terrain opens up some of the best skiing on the Ten Mile Range.
