Purgatory Resort<\/a> is scheduled to open for the 2026\u201327 ski season on Friday, November 20, weather permitting. <\/strong>To build excitement for the upcoming season, Purgatory is offering lift tickets for less than $50 on 95 days this winter, including select dates when tickets start at just $9. Kids 12 and younger ski free all season with no blackout dates.<\/p>\n

The new Colorado Couloir chairlift will debut this winter, unlocking about\u00a040 acres of new advanced and expert terrain<\/strong>, with five new trails and gladed tree skiing in one of Purgatory\u2019s steepest areas. <\/strong>The lift will also create a new way to reach the upper mountain. Starting at the Gelande parking area, skiers and riders will be able to ride directly to the upper mountain and access the backside terrain, eliminating the shuttle previously required to start the day from Gelande.<\/p>\n
