Monarch Mountain, Colorado's Gem of the Gems!
Read This...NY Times Article
Monarch Mountain is located in south central Colorado, well south of the freeway madness that gridlocks Interstate 70 from Denver to the Front Range resorts each weekend. Located on Highway 50 on the Continental Divide, Monarch is very accessible.
Monarch Mountain is what you expect from a real Colorado ski area. Abundant natural snow (350+ inches), you can walk from your car right to the lifts, prices are reasonable, and the runs flow naturally back to the base area. At Monarch you’ll lose the crowds but not your friends.
Monarch is a family favorite because of great snow conditions, variety of green and blue terrain and easy access to the mountain. Having one base area makes it convenient to drop off the little ones in the Children’s Center, pick up rental equipment, sign up for ski school and get on the slopes in a timely manner. Lift lines are a rarity, and you will regularly find ski runs to yourself.
Salida's Favored Hotel... Salida Super 8
We are situated just off U.S. 50 across from the Salida Hot Springs Aquatic Center & Recreational Park, and are near a fine selection of restaurants & shopping. We feature 52 spacious, spotless guestrooms, each with a complimentary coffee maker and hairdryer. Enjoy our indoor heated pool & 3 hot tubs or barbecue on our picnic patio and gaze at beautiful mountain views. While in Salida make the Super 8 your home away from home.
We feature one indoor hot tub and two hot tubs on our sun deck... giving us a total of three! One of the new tubs is reserved for adults only from 6-10pm. Picture yourself relaxing on our deck, soaking up the moonlight and starshine after skiing Mirkwood Basin at Monarch, hiking to lost lake, cycling up Monarch Pass, reeling in the gorgeous Brown Trout resplendent with her fall colors from the Arkansas River, or purchasing that special piece of art you have been looking for for months, since Salida's Artwalk. Escape to the Headwaters of Adventure!
