Keystone has three distinct ski areas spread over three mountains.
Beginners are advised to head for Dercum Mountain, which caters
especially to first- time skiers with a range of easy green and
slightly more testing blue trails—and a reduced chance of being
intimidated by more experienced skiers and riders.
The front side of
Dercum Mountain is best for beginners, including the Discovery
Learning Area by the Mountain House Base Area, and the learning area at
the top of Dercum Mountain. Beginners start on the Discovery slope
but progress is swift from there onto the long and narrow Schoolmarm,
or onto the next stage—the Flying Dutchman blue down the side of the
mountain. The green (beginner) trails, on Dercum Mountain and North
Peak, allow beginners to enjoy the views from the River Run and Outpost
gondolas and ski in different areas. Keystone’s longest trail is three and half
miles (5.6 km) and it is a beginner trail. Remember that this is
high-altitude terrain and you could be susceptible both to chilly winds
and headaches because of the thin air, which can make the learning
experience uncomfortable.
