Arapahoe Basin....

Where the spirit of freedom and big mountain challenges create life altering experiences.

Arapahoe Basin Ski Area also known as “A-Basin” or simply “The Basin” opened in 1946 and remains a classic ski area experience today.  For both guests and employees alike, A-Basin provides the “pure mountain experience” with a true family friendly atmosphere and a passion for skiing, riding and the mountain experience.  Half of our mountain is above timberline, with 10% beginner, 30% intermediate and 60% advanced/expert terrain and open bowl skiing lasting into June and sometimes July!  Often known as a local’s mountain, employees have the opportunity to get to know our regular guests enhancing the feeling of Arapahoe Basin as a community, more than just a ski area.  Arapahoe Basin features everything needed for a memorable ski day, including rental, retail, snowsports school, and two food and beverage outlets.  Arapahoe Basin operates on the Arapahoe National Forest, and therefore  does not have on site lodging for guests or employees.
