The Cat transportation from Outpost is $20 instead of the $10 mentioned in the video with credit card. The trail is well groomed so the hike isn't too bad and takes about 45min to the top of Bergman/Erickson. We remember taking the Cat from Outback when it was $5.
Keystone is proposing a new lift to replace the Cat transportation to the top of Bergman. Will be nice to access the alpine bowls via lift.
@@snowboardtraveler the 10 dollar which is 20 is in the back in the outback.
.the new lift will not replace that. The private kat riding will be back on independence and might not be replaced when the new lift goes in. We shall see.
Seems like they move the cat around. Last year there was no cat on outback, it had moved to Bergman for $20. When the lift goes in they will likely move it to independence in place of hike-out until the long range plan of an independence lift is approved.
Great video y’all!
I’ll be there this week for the first time. This is helping me know what to expect when I get there. Thank you!
Let us know if they changed anything. I know they have a new Peru lift but thats about it.
Cool video and channel. Following now, keep up the good work.
Thanks! In the process of editing about 15 more of these ski resort guides.
...Just before the virus hit..... I was fortunate enough to get 43 days in before they closed on March 15. It is a great place to ride.
That's a decent number of days for the season at least. I was riding there on the last day too and didnt think it would be closed the next day.
What do you think of the new proposed chair lift up Bergman Bowl from North Peak? Beats hiking but might ruin it a bit. It includes some glading in Erickson Bowl which would be nice as those trees are tight.
Im excited to start as a lift operator this season! Waiting to hear info on employee housing!! Super excited! Fingers crossed that the employee housing doesnt get cancelled from COVID.
Hoping everything goes well this season! Should be interesting as a lifty with the limited number of people on the mountain this year with the reservation system. Hope you can get in some awesome riding between shifts.
I went here 3 years ago I was in fourth grade it was amazing we went snow tubing
I just found your channel and really like your content and reviews, thanks and keep up the good work!
Thank you! 🙏 more on the way.
Love the awesome videos!

Very helpful and thanks for sharing!
Glad you found it helpful!
Awesome video! We love Keystone also!
We like the close free parking
Home away from home
Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
such a good video, goodjob guys!
Thanks! Several more in the works.
How cool you were married there!!!
Great venue and views! It had just reopened for summer after mud season and still some snow at the top. Some of the flat lander guests were struggling with the altitude but I think everyone had fun.
@@snowboardtraveler So awesome!! I scored an Epic pass and can't wait for the coming winter to travel to CO for some boarding!!!
Great review of both the mountain and town!
We really like Keystone and it will be cool to see it expand in the coming years with lift access to the upper bowls.
Love this resort
We’re fans too! What’s your favorite run?
Which ever i happen to be on😆
I WENT TO THE SAME PLACE!!
It’s magical isn’t it!
This is the only place I will never forget.
Keystone is a pretty special resort!
You can not cut over from schoolmarm to area 51. You have to go down to peru lift than back up to "area 51" not a51.
Hope that helps clear that up.
Yes A51 is completely roped off from schoolmarm now and ski patrol is monitoring so you’ll have to ride down to Peru. It’s labeled A51 on the trail map.
Thanks so much for this review. In normal non- Covid times, is it pretty crowded at this resort during weekdays (Mon - Fri) compared to other resorts you two have been to?
Keystone is not very crowded on weekdays compared to nearby Breck or Vail. It is fairly large in size so although the first mountain could seem busy, once you go further back to the other two mountains it is not very crowded. Exceptions could be the usual holiday weeks (presidents, MLK, spring break).
This resort gets pretty crowded or this year during the rona its packed. I live 4 miles from there. Many people from Denver go here more since its an exit before breck and closer.
We are going there January
Awesome, have fun! We are hopeful all the resorts will be open next winter.
@@snowboardtraveler me too I'm planning on proposing to my Girlfriend on top of the mountain.
before you do it, hike together from The Outpost to the top of Bergman Bowl. If you both have fun doing that then you're meant for each other.
@@snowboardtraveler I will remember that
@@MoisesFontana83 I'll be there this season as a Liftie! Look for me, Mike! Excited to help you guys get up the mountain!
Hey fellow riders what’s going on? You as excited about getting back out there as we are or what? Loved this guys... so good and can’t wait to see what else you guys have to offer. Would you prefer copper or keystone for a friends trip? We would be looking for friendly runs, a good nightlife, and awesome food! Let us know what you think!
We can't wait for the season to start! Both are great resorts. Keystone has more friendly runs and Copper can skew more challenging. Not that there will be much nightlife this year but Keystone has a little more to their base area for restaurants. Keystone is on epic pass and you can use the same pass over at Breckenridge if you want to do the 30 min drive to get in another resort and also have a more ski town feel with downtown apres activities.
snowboardtraveler very helpful guys, you got a new fan and a new follower for sure! Can’t wait to see more from ya this winter! We are riders ourselves so show some love back if you wanna stay in touch, if not, no biggie... keep killing it guys! 😃
I wish I lived in colorado to ski in colorado but i live across the us :(
We are still enjoying spring skiing here. Maybe you can visit next season?
How tough are the blues in the outback?
Similar to the blues on the other parts of the resort. I recommend going out there for the view.
Love how you mentioned area 51’s own ski lift
yeah it's a fun park to do laps in
Is there any snowboarding rentals in the village and is it free to snowboard there??
There are a couple gear rental places in keystone village like christy sports or Mountain View sports has a kids rent free on off peak times. You will need to buy lift tickets to snowboard at keystone. The only free option is for kids 12 and under if you book 2 nights lodging with the resort.
How is the snow in December here?
Depends on the snow that year. We’ve had some awesome Christmas days here but could also be limited runs in a dry year.
@@snowboardtraveler thanks!
@@snowboardtraveler their limited runs probably still trump what I have here in Virginia
step one: go to the outback.
step two: ski the outback
step three: repeat step 2
that's pretty much what we do at Keystone, but didn't want to give away all the secrets.
haha. We really liked it when we skied there 30 years ago and I'm heading there with a friend in a few weeks. I'll probably head over to the Outback after a few warmup runs.
Not sure if you do this, but don’t treat your RUclips channel as a hobby treat it as a business meaning write off everything as a business deduction season pass, cameras, gas, food, etc. Even if you don’t make any profit for the first year. Anyways, loving the content and all the helpful advice! Subbed and liked :)
Yup yup, it rolls up into a larger freelance writing/media business
How can I not sub
Thanks for subscribing! Woohoo!
Great place but....NEVER BUY INSURANCE WITH American claims management !!!
Keystone ,the resort closed, reservation canceled, never used the ski pass for 2019 -20 !
I was thinking i'm lucky with the ski pass insurance i got , NO NO NO...
so far American claims management reject to refund
Sorry to hear that. I saw Vail Resorts was giving refunds on some unused passes but it didnt include Epic season or day passes.
Hiking in snowboard boots, uphill for 1.5 miles doesn’t sound fun at all
Better than in ski boots
