Colorado Arapahoe Basin's New Trail Map 2017-18

[Tricia]

Al's Blog features the new trail map
The map can be found at the link below. This map is very specifically for the 2017/18 season and does not include the chairlift that will be installed for the 2018/19 season. For the 2017/18 season, all the areas in The Beavers and Steep Gullies require a hike at the end of the ski.

That new section will be problematic since there is no easy way back once you commit. It will involve hiking! Yes they have plans to put in a lift but it is not there yet. When they do put the lift in then some not all of those trails will be changed to blue runs.

Sounds like next season is the season to really get after that stuff, before it gets too crowded

I'm sure there will be signs. Like many things in skiing, if people ignore the signs, they'll receive a life lesson.

There now appears to be a hiking path. Before, you had to clamber up a steep "wall" and hitch a ride. This is an improvement.

Yes once the chair is in that will be like a secret place of sorts.
