Highland Bowl: The Holy Grail of Colorado Skiing

BOWL FOR BOOMERS is a private lesson program for confident and aggressive Boomers who want to test their limits. It offers the opportunity to ski Highland Bowl.

Many of you know about Highland Bowl. It's the Holy Grail of Colorado skiing. Featured in Warren Miller movies, the Bowl has some of the steepest and most extreme in-bounds terrain in the state of Colorado. It is definitely the Ultimate Challenge, but with corresponding rewards.

Skiing Highland Bowl requires a strenuous 45 minute, 782 vertical-foot, high altitude hike up a snow-covered ridge line to the 12,392 ft. summit. From there it is an exhilarating 1,460 vertical-foot elevator shaft descent down slopes that range from a 33 to 42 degree pitch. It is a ski experience that is not to be forgotten and it is guaranteed to make you an apre-ski legend in the bar.
