About this lift

The Colorado SuperChair

The Colorado SuperChair is the main lift on Peak 8 and probably the most important chair at Breck. It's a six-pack from the Peak 8 base up to Vista Haus, and from the top you can get almost anywhere: back down Peak 8, across to the T-Bar and Peak 7 on Columbine and Pathfinder, or over to the 6-Chair and the Imperial SuperChair.

The runs underneath it are a mix. Crescendo and Springmeier are friendly blues, while Callie's Alley, Spruce and Rounders are tree-lined blacks.

Tips

  • It’s the busiest lift on Peak 8. The line is usually longest mid-morning, once ski school and the gondola crowd arrive.
  • If the line is long, the Rocky Mountain SuperChair next to it reaches similar terrain.
  • Vista Haus at the top has food and a bar, open 9am to 3:30pm.
Quick tip

Ski & snowboard rental

Book online before you arrive and pick your gear up in town the evening before. The morning rush at the base shops can eat your first hour, and booking ahead can be cheaper.

Quick tip

Lift tickets & the Epic Pass

Breck is on the Epic Pass. Buying a ticket at the window on the day is the most expensive way up the hill, so buy ahead online or look at an Epic Day Pass if you're here for a few days.
