Breckenridge Peak 9 trails
The peak closest to town: long greens down low, cruisy blues up top and the North Chutes for experts.

Peak 9
About Peak 9
Peak 9 is the closest peak to town, and for a lot of people it's where the day starts. The Quicksilver SuperChair leaves from the Peak 9 base and runs up to TenMile Station, with gentle greens all the way down. The Maggie at the base does breakfast, lunch and après.
Higher up, the Mercury and Beaver Run SuperChairs serve the wide blues that make Peak 9 a favourite for intermediates. Then there's the other side of the peak: the E-Chair and the North Chutes, a tight set of double-black lines that most people never see.

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.
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.
The Friday snow email
One short email a week in season: what fell, what's open, and where to ride this weekend.
