Silverton Regular Day Ski/Splitboard Touring

The San Juan Mountains near Silverton offer a diverse range of backcountry terrain, catering to both relaxed rides and challenging descents. Skiers and riders can enjoy playful, smaller runs around the Cement Creek area or tackle bigger mountain lines off King Solomon and Kendall Mountain when conditions are favorable. This variety makes the region appealing for all levels of backcountry enthusiasts seeking adventure in a stunning alpine setting.

Guides tailor the experience to match participants’ skill levels and the current avalanche conditions. In the early season, lower-angle powder runs in the trees and open bowls are typically the safest and most enjoyable. As the season progresses into spring, steeper couloirs and faces become more accessible, providing opportunities for more advanced terrain exploration. This flexibility ensures that each trip can be both safe and exhilarating, no matter the timing.
