Vail operates North America's largest lift network,
with 32 lifts, including 13 high speed quads and a gondola. Complimentary
mountain tours are available every morning to help you get acquainted
with the mountain. Vail certainly has the terrain for everyone!
Editors Note: Vail has an incredible
selection of terrain. If it is cliffs you are after cliffs go under
Northwoods Express and in that general area on the front of the
mountain. Vail has the cliffs to scare even the craziest of boarders/skiers
(see under lift 4). Powder and cornices are plentiful in the back
bowls and cruisers are available by the Gondola and Vista Bahn lifs.
Vail truly has it all, except for extreme steeps, but hey, nobody's
perfect.
