I love that this trail map shows the flat spots . . . beware the dashed lines.
I learned that the hard way…😂
So did I 😂😭
Wish I saw this before I went! We skied 6 and 7 last week. I need to check out the top of 9 and 10 next time they seem great. The peak 6 blues were a great challenge.
I love your videos but this one really emphasizes the negatives without hitting the positives. No argument with the negatives but Peak 9 has some great trees and both 9 and 10 have great terrain to lap. Volunteer is often groomed on one-half which allows the skier to hit a challenging run but bail-out to the groomed side if needed. E-chair is rarely busy and has great, lap-able black terrain (although the terrain under lift is skied off quickly).
Don't worry, I might make a part d (2024 update) over the summer
I have been to Breckinridge multiple times in both busy times and off times. It’s wonderful when it’s an off time. But it is terrible during busy weekends and holidays
Absolutely agreed!
Also to get to peak 9 you can take frosty’s freeway or do any of the doubles off of the super connect
Yeah, I really like taking those to avoid the slow ride on C or the hike along Lower Sawmill
What? Quicksilver is far from the only double-loading lift in North America…? Just in Colorado, the Game Creek lift at Vail I’m pretty sure are double-loading, and a couple of the base lifts at Copper and High Lonesome at Winter Park are too, right?
No . . . Quicksilver is the only one. Don't believe me? Go look at Liftblog.com
Btw, that old Game Creek is getting replaced by a new six pack as we speak, but I can guarantee you that that old 1980s cadence chain technology did not have any possibility of a double load.
@@SRGSkiing What do you mean? I went on it last year, you can ski into the line on the left or the right and get on it.
@@blarbkanopcious4243 The meaning behind double-loading is that two chairs are loading simultaneously. There are two separate loading platforms, so rather than six people sitting down on a chair at one time, twelve people are sitting down on two separate chairs simultaneously. What you're describing is simply where there are two separate mazes but they merge up to one single load point, where one group loads one chair at a time.
How does Breck compare to Keystone?
Well, it's tough to say without knowing your specific situation. Breck has the better advanced terrain (double black/extreme), but Keystone has better moguls. Both get Vail Resorts busy, but on-mountain dining and lift lines are just slightly less at Keystone. If you want to know something specific, please do let me know and I'll help you out as much as I can.
@@SRGSkiing thanks for the info. What would you recommend for skiiers that enjoy green/blue runs, not big fans of moguls and are looking for maybe some easier blacks to try skiing blacks for the first time?
Breckenridge has some groomed blacks, a few good blue groomer pods, and more green areas than Keystone, so I would go with Breck
Do one for Park City!
I may actually be able to produce one during the offseason
