Breckenridge’s ski resort opened in 1961 and in it’s first season had an average 17,000 skiers a day, proving the quality that was put into the ski resort. In the last decade 39 million dollars has been invested into, “on-mountain improvements“, and is now capable of a lift capacity of 36,680 people per hour. Breckenridge has 146 trails available to ski upon, guaranteeing that you won’t find yourself bored, 27 lifts and over 2,200 acres of ski terrain, with the longest run over 3 miles in length.
