Beaver Creek offers a handful of designated routes for uphill access outside of operating hours. This one starts at Lower Beaver base area and stays on green trails. The gradient is mellow, but the 2.5-mile route still earns nearly 2000 feet of vertical if you take it to the top, making a respectable morning or evening workout. Note that Beaver Creek’s uphill policy states that designated routes are subject to change, so be sure to review the policy and call the trails hotline (970) 754-5907 for updates before you go.
