How does one have minimal fun on the mountain. Come on down to Eldora. But seriously go to Eldora, people die on i70 almost weekly. Why would you risk your safety and your families. Even if you're an awesome driver it only takes one bad driver to crash into you. Summit county just isn't worth it wi...

Great snow, well groomed runs, friendly staff. The Woodward ski school is great for kids. Only negative was slow service at the Timber Lodge for lunch. It would be better if they had some basic stuff like pizza, fries, hot dogs, etc. ready to serve immediately during lunch hour.

People and parking management have materially declined this year over past years. Staff acts in a way to communicate ambivalence regarding skier experience. The beginner mountain terrain has been primarily repurposed as terrain park leaving materially less green/beginner terrain. Mixing terrain p...

Ski conditions are nice and the location is quite convenient. My kids ski and they love it here. However I have two main complaints. First I paid for an introductory whole day lesson (level 1). Although the instructor was nice, the way they divided the groups were not optimum. We had 19 people in th...

Nice ski area to get to relatively quickly from the north Denver metro without having to deal with I-70 traffic or staying overnight. Has all levels of slopes, ski rental options, ski classes for all ages and great trails for cross country skiing. It isn't in a town and isn't huge so many people pa...

Great local mountain. If you need coddling go somewhere else. If you don't wanna pay for a season pass don't complain about the price. It's expensive to keep up a ski area, fact of life. At $139 for a 1 day, though, seriously if you don't have a season pass probably go somewhere else.

Eldora is a surprisingly nice mountain given the small overall size compared to the major Colorado resorts.

Pros:
Colorado Snow - it gets skied off pretty quickly, but it's still Colorado snow.
The steep trees - seems like most people don't realize that the trees in Corona are as steep as just ...

Friends Dont Let Friends Drive I-70

*unless its a weekday in February at which point 3,000+ acres at Breck/Copper/Vail , the west wall/Norway at Abasin , A51 & long groomers at Keystone , or Endless Bumps & the Cirque at Winter Park are definitely worth it

If you are looking for convenience and saving yourself the hassle of being in traffic for 2-3 hours, then this is the ski place for you. Only ~40 minutes from Boulder. Great high-speed 6-man chair lift gets you up to the top in minutes so you can get more skiing in. Part of the ikon pass now.

The resort is more of a locals place a than anything else. The slopes aren't the longest nor is there a lot options of trails.
The awesome thing about this resort is that it is close to Denver. It is a great place to spend the morning skiing or boarding before work. I have brought several people he...

Not having to deal with I-70 was extremely enjoyable and may be best part of skiing here. The mountain has a non-Colorado feel to it (besides of course the views of some major peaks) due to the lack of substantial snowfall. The runs were SLICK. Just sheets of ice. Lack of snowfall and always high wi...

The mountain is good and steep however, because there are usually high winds the runs are void of snow at the tops and very icy. This is a local ski resort not a big fancy one. They have done a great job making sure there are bathrooms on the hill and at the base. Good shuttle service to the ski bas...

Love Eldora!

Love Eldora!

It's been shunned off as a small, windy and icy resort but it's short lift lines, powder stashes in trees, great groomers and 100% coverage in snowmaking make it a great destination for Boulder and Ned locals who want to get some turns in while avoiding foreign Jerry's and endless to...

A decidedly decent experience. Terrain is limited and the wind can be fierce but it still tends to be a great time. Great location, friendly staff, nice views. Chalet food is pretty weak. Staff do a great job trying to manage parking, etc.

Perfect for a half day ski.

I grew up skiing here and loved Eldora but after recent trips to other skii areas I have started to notice things that I don't like as much. They obsessively scan passes even on the back side lifts. The chairs seem to stop really often and the back side lifts are pretty slow. That being said the ski...

This resort is in within driving distance from Denver which was quite convenient for us. We are from out of town and were not familiar with which resorts were the best. The day we visited in Feb 2019 it was super cold and very windy. There was hardly anyone out skiing and the ski lifts were close...

Thought I'd save time and money by going to Eldora instead of the big resorts and was pleasantly surprised. Blue and Black Diamond runs are slightly shorter than big resorts but just as good with enough variety to make it I interesting for a two day trip. The best part was the lift line was very sho...

I'd give the mountain 5 stars but the rental and ticket buying experience could be better. They need to completely separate rentals from ticketing. The staff was courteous and very helpful, considering the circumstances. The shuttle buses to parking were very efficient. I would go again but I'd rent...
