Resort Skiing/Snowboarding – Arapahoe Basin

Finish the season strong and join us at the Summit Telemark Festival! You can choose to join a morning clinic at any level (Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced) or ski with the group. Interested in new gear? Demo modern telemark boots, bindings, and skis at the event. After pairing up to ski at 9:00 AM, we’ll regroup for lunch at Noon, then join the group ski at 1:00 PM. Afterward, we’ll head back to Denver between 2:00 and 3:00 PM. Ready to join? Here’s what to do: 1) Register on Arapahoe Basin's website under Events > Summit Telemark Festival (https://www.arapahoebasin.com/event/tele-fest/). 2) Purchase your lift ticket in advance. 3) Sign your Arapahoe Basin waiver. 4) Join my carpool or create your own group of 4 for free parking.

Arapahoe Basin challenges the best of skiers.  If you choose to take a clinic, you learn the most when you are a solid or strong skier at the level you select.

 

Meet at 6:30 AM in the Stegosaurus Parking Lot, which is located in the SE corner of I-70 and Hwy 93 (across the road from the Mathews/Winters parking lot).
Driving Directions: From the Stegosaurus Parking Lot, drive west on I-70 for 53 miles to the Loveland Pass exit 216, then drive west on US 6 for 8.1 miles over the pass to Arapahoe Basin. Alternatively, if the pass is closed, we will go through the tunnel to the Silverthorn exit 205 and follow US 6 east for 12.7 miles. Expect 1:00 to 1:15 travel time, adding 15 minutes if we need to go through Silverthorn.
