Clauson Classic
“Be Like John” is a motto at Silverton Mountain. John Clauson was our Assistant Snow Safety director, guide and friend. No mission was too hard, no load was too much, and nothing couldn’t be done without a smile and a humble admiration for the beauty of the San Juan Mountains.
This is an endurance style race, taking place on April 9th, where we have 2 check points on the mountain and racers see how many times they can lap each checkpoint. The event brings awareness to and benefits Be The Match, which is a bone marrow registry. This event started after long time patroller and snow safety director, John Clauson, passed away from Lukemia. This event is $25 for our season pass holders, if you need an unguided ticket for the day you can get both for $124.

The rad Silverton mountain guides help make the mountain’s expansive terrain more accessible and less intimidating by providing big mountain ski tips throughout the weekend.

Silverton New Year’s Eve
There is no better way to usher in the New Year than surrounded by 13,000’ peaks. While other Colorado resorts deal with busy holiday madness, Silverton is the antithesis of that. New Year’s Eve festivities will include all of your favorite things; skiing, a party, drinks, and ski buddies new and old. Enjoy the coldest beer in San Juan County with an après drinks at the on-mountain yurt bar followed by a New Year Eve party at The Avalanche and walk across the street to your hotel. Silverton Mountain lacks the crowds of other ski areas over the holidays since it exclusively serves advanced and expert skiers and limits the number of skiers/snowboarders allowed on the mountain. (Guides are required to ski off of the chairlift until Mid-March and are included in lift ticket price.) Packages are $478 and includes 2 days of Guided Skiing, NYE party with dinner and 2 drink coupons, and 2 après ski drink tickets for the mountain. Purchase here.
