The resort operates from November through April with a typical visit duration of about eight hours. It sits at an elevation of 8,080 feet and features parking for visitors. The terrain includes a mix of groomed trails, bowls, and steep slopes suitable for intermediate to expert snowboarders. Highland Bowl, a hike-to area opened in 2002, offers additional freeride options. The resort is part of the Aspen Snowmass corporation, meaning a single lift ticket provides access to all four mountains in the area. A free bus connects the various ski areas within the Roaring Fork Valley. Snowmaking covers 121 acres, and the area receives an annual snowfall of approximately 300 inches. First-time snowboarding at the location occurred in 1983.
