Ski season is officially here, and we could not be more thrilled! While the beginning of the season is always exciting, this winter there is a new addition at Snowmass that has us feeling especially elated: the Coney Express Lift.
This all-new high-speed quad is only steps away from the door at Woodrun V, further enhancing the property’s already unparalleled ski-in/ski-out access. With the new lift, which just made its debut on December 7th, it’s now easier than ever for Woodrun V guests to gain quick, direct access to the full spectrum of terrain offered at Snowmass Resort – all 3,330+ acres!
Coney Express effectively replaces the Coney Glade chairlift at Snowmass, providing an all-new access point to the full scope of the mountain’s ski runs, and significantly increasing the resort’s capacity to transport skiers and riders out of its base area. And for guests of Woodrun V, it’s practically like having your own private lift! The lift originates on Fanny Hill across from the Snowmass Mall – just right down the hill from Woodrun V! – and ends at the top of Coney Glad trail, providing convenient access to the Big Burn, Alpine Spring and Sheer Bliss zones. It features a midway angle-station for additional loading, and continued access to Snowmass’ highly celebrated terrain park.
In addition, the new lift will add an option for foot passenger traffic to unload at its midway station, allowing foot passengers to access The Cabin and the Spider Sabich Race Arena at Snowmass. Of note, The Cabin was also renovated and expanded for this season, with a new patio and grill/bar area. Add this stop to your bucket list for your Aspen Snowmass ski vacation, and enjoy lunch with a view or a vibrant après atmosphere.
With the new Coney Express lift now running, Woodrun V guests will enjoy a more elevated experience than ever this season, with truly premium ski-in/ski-out convenience that quite literally lets you put your skis on at the door and go!
