Silverton Mountain

Silverton Mountain is a hidden gem in Colorado's San Juan Mountains, offering a uniquely intimate ski experience with a single chairlift servicing steep, advanced terrain. This ski area caters to experienced skiers and snowboarders seeking challenging descents and minimal crowds, with 701 vertical feet of primarily advanced runs. The mountain's modest footprint belies its reputation for quality snow and expert-only trails that demand technical skill and mountain savvy. Beyond the groomed runs, Silverton's high elevation (11,025 ft summit) and proximity to vast backcountry terrain make it an excellent staging point for ski touring, snowshoeing, and summer alpine exploration in one of Colorado's most rugged and scenic mountain ranges.
