Breckenridge Ski Resort will open in two short weeks on Friday, November 7, with terrain, lifts and services on Peak 8. Snowmaking operations began Sunday, October 19, aided by cold temperatures early in the week. Skiers and riders can expect top to bottom skiing and riding on Peak 8 via the Colorado Superchair. The BreckConnect Gondola will also be open providing the skier access from downtown Breckenridge with a scenic ride from the town parking lots.
"With the opening of Peak 8, we are able to provide a new experience on opening day to all of our guests," said Rick Sramek, Vice-President of Mountain Operations for Breckenridge. "We will be able to open more ski runs and lifts earlier, allowing skiers and riders more choices in terrain."
Breckenridge Ski Resort plans to open Peak 9 by Thanksgiving with all skier services available at both the Village and Beaver Run base areas. With the early opening of Peak 8 and the Thanksgiving opening of Peak 9, the resort will be able to offer more variety by the Thanksgiving holiday. Openings dates and terrain are subject to weather conditions and unforeseen construction-related issues.
