Silverton Mountain Snowboarding

About

Silverton Mountain Snowboarding is a high-alpine destination located in Silverton, Colorado, on the Western Slope. The facility operates with a single chairlift that connects a base elevation of 10,400 feet to a summit of 13,487 feet. This vertical rise provides access to 1,819 acres of terrain characterized by bowls, chutes, and cliffs. The mountain is noted for its steepness and lack of cut runs, leaving the landscape in a natural state subject to avalanche mitigation. While the database lists moderate difficulty, multiple sources classify the terrain as suitable for advanced and expert riders, with unguided options available primarily in the spring. Guided services are offered year-round, while heli-skiing provides access to higher elevations. The typical operating season runs from November through April, though conditions dictate specific availability. Visitors can expect a day duration of approximately eight hours. Parking is available at the base, and restrooms are provided for convenience.
