From investments in new lifts and technology, to base area upgrades, new facilities and restaurants, Vail Resorts is continually looking for ways to enhance the guest experience across our North American resorts. Since 2008, the company has invested an unparalleled $1.5 billion back into its resorts, and heading into the 2021-22 winter season another $120 million will be invested across its resorts, including significant enhancements at 4 out of 5 of the resorts based in Colorado. These investments, paired with a bold price reset for the Epic Pass, continue to make getting on the mountain easier and better than ever in Colorado and beyond.

Vail Resorts announced today plans for summer operations at its five Colorado resorts.
