Skiing and Snowboarding<br />
at Monarch Mountain<br />
Monarch Mountain is an<br />
independent ski area with a unique<br />
local charm. It features 800 skiable<br />
acres with another 1600 acres of<br />
guided backcountry terrain. One of<br />
the more unique aspects of<br />
Monarch is that they operate on all<br />
natural snow. What you see on the<br />
slopes is exactly what Mother<br />
Nature has provided - which, on<br />
average, is 350 inches of snow each<br />
year. It’s much more affordable<br />
than the larger resorts, plus the lift<br />
lines are shorter and the slopes are<br />
less crowded. If you’re new to skiing<br />
or snowboarding, Monarch is a<br />
fantastic place to learn.<br />
<strong>Salida</strong> Mountain Sports<br />
At <strong>Salida</strong> Mountain Sports, you’ll find an awesome selection of skis<br />
available for purchase and for rent. They carry a number of top<br />
brands, including K2, Voile, Rossignol, Black Diamond, and more. If<br />
you’ve noticed a bit of discomfort while you’re skiing, stop in for a<br />
custom boot fitting session. You’ll be glad you did! <strong>Salida</strong> Mountain<br />
Sports also rents cross-country skis, snowshoes, and sleds.<br />
Mt. Shavano Ski Shop<br />
Mt. Shavano Ski and Snowboard Shop is another great option if<br />
you’re in need of some rental gear. They offer ski and snowboard<br />
packages for kids and adults. You can also rent cross-country skis,<br />
snowshoes, and GoPro cameras. If you’re looking to buy, they<br />
offer a nice selection of demo skis so you can easily choose which<br />
one suits you best.<br />
