Copper Mountain Information

Share This

Copper Mountain’s 2,465 acres of skiable terrain is easily accessible to skiers and boarders of all skill levels. Take one of the 22 lifts up the mountain, and find your favorite run down – there are 126 options to pick from! With a summit over 12,000 feet, Copper has access to some great backcountry style skiing. Join one of Copper’s “Resort Ambassadors” for a free tour of the mountain, and feel free to ask any and all questions to these Ambassadors about the town, the mountain’s terrain, the restaurants, the surrounding environment, and anything else you can think of asking. At most resorts this comes at a hefty price, but at Copper this sort of thing is FREE! Like free stuff? Keep reading…

Copper Mountain also provides its guests with FREE snowcat runs up Tucker Mountain to the top of Copper Mountain. While most resorts charge to shuttle people via snowcat, Copper takes its guests to some of the freshest backcountry terrain the mountain has to offer – for no charge. The Tucker Mountain snowcat always runs on the weekends (Friday – Sunday) and closes at 2 pm. This terrain is not for beginners, but is a must-do activity for anyone who considers themselves an snow sports enthusiast.
