Berthoud Pass Ski Area was one of Colorado's first major ski areas, located at
the summit of Berthoud Pass, between Winter Park and Denver. Their main
claim to fame was having the first double chairlift in the state (maybe in the
country) built in 1947. The lift was constructed by Bob Heron and Sam
Huntington of Heron Engineering. Bob Heron later headed one of the major lift
companies in the state of Colorado with notable projects at Aspen, Loveland,
Breckenridge and Copper.
Berthoud Pass has always been backcountry area with many of its runs cut by
avalanches. The resort boasts over 425" of snow each year, some of the most in
Colorado.
