Known as the “West Best Secret” is Three Forks Ranch, Colorado, an all-inclusive exclusive mountain resort that provides its guests with a beautiful wilderness getaway. This resort is located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains just 40 miles north of Steamboat Springs, Colorado. It is open year-round and offers guests wellness retreats and treatments (in partnership with Mayo Clinic), skiing, fishing (and ice fishing!), horseback riding, mountain biking, archery, and more. Lindsey Vonn and Three Forks Ranch just announced a partnership with Vonn as their new Brand Ambassador for their private, yet accessible skiing experience.
As a Brand Ambassador, Vonn will help to bring awareness to this pristine ski area. Skiing at this property was only made possible via the restoration that took place — 16 miles of river were rehabilitated to decrease erosion and thousands of beetle-killed pine trees were removed for fire mitigation.
The ski area is located less than half a mile from the entrance to the Main Lodge, is only accessible by snow cats, and has runs that cater to all levels of skiing and snowboarding. Everyone skis with mountain guides, who are wilderness first responders, and has the ability to get private instruction if interested. The mountain has 23 runs and yearly average of 350 inches of snowfall creates an uncrowded, unforgettable ski experience everyone can enjoy.
Oh, joy another private ski area that no one else can access unless you have deep pockets to join the super high club membership fee.
