We can look forward to two new chair lifts opening this season at Vail Mountain. These upgrades will make the back bowls more accessible and can ensure you can lap Ricky’s Ridge as many times as your legs will allow on powder days.
Sun Down Lift
The installation of a new high-speed 4-person chair in the Sun Down Bowl from the base of Chair 5 (High Noon Express) to the Wildwood restaurant will materially reduce wait times on peak days at Chair 5 and create the opportunity for skiers and riders to much more conveniently access the trails in Sun Down Bowl.
Game Creek Bowl Lift
The replacement of the current 4-person chair with a new high-speed 6-person lift will increase capacity by nearly 50% and improve reliability in this popular bowl.
