Scott Cramer

Keystone is an under-rated mountain. The front mountain excels in long, top-to-bottom cruising runs that pitch and roll in interesting ways and supply great views. But the real payoff is on North Peak and in the Outback where there are great bump runs like Ambush, Powder-cap, Badger, and Timber Wolf that maintain good snow and NEVER get crowded. Keystone does not have the steep terrain like its neighbors at A-Basin and Breckenridge,but there is plenty to do there for anyone of any level and is not as crowded and over-built as Breckenridge.
