One of the most famous ski resorts on Earth, Vail Ski Resort is well-known for its remarkable views and the beauty of its nearby town, which has attracted plenty of A-list celebrities over the years. Located in Eagle County, about two hours outside of Boulder, Vail stretches out over more than 5,000 acres of skiable ground and features over 190 individual runs, making it one of the largest ski resorts in the state. Over half of the runs at Vail are classed as black, so this resort is well-suited to advanced skiers who are really looking to test themselves.
