CONTRIBUTE TO CUCHARA MOUNTAIN PARK
Panadero Ski Corporation is working hard to open Lift 4 and with it, access to 7 beginner and family-friendly runs with a truly affordable lift ticket price. To be able to open and provide the best experience possible we've identified the four critical areas below that need funding to return lift-served skiing to Cuchara Mountain Park.
Please tell us if you'd like to direct your donation to a specific area.
As we phase in our opening with Snow Cat Sled operations our goals are:
-
Develop rental and ski school program -> Working to make this a reality by the 2025/2026 ski season.
-
Continue youth programs with local school districts and organizations to promote involvement in skiing/snowboarding and other forms of outdoor recreation. -> Panadero Ski Corporation has hosted two Huerfano County Youth Ski Days on March of 2024 and 2025.
-
Provide the best skiing/riding experience at a low cost -> Day Passes for Snow Cat Sled Skiing for have been $40/day for the past three ski seasons.
-
Expand hiking and biking trails -> Plans are being developed to build more cross country, mountain biking and hiking trails at the park.
​
Your generous donation will support our efforts to return skiing to Cuchara Mountain Park and further develop park amenities.
