Cross Country Skiing

One of America's finest
cross-country skiing resorts.

A 2003 Fischer Nordic Poll of avid cross-country enthusiasts rated Devil's Thumb Ranch #1 for scenery, #4 for grooming, and #7 overall out of all Nordic resorts in North America. Just one visit and you’ll likely agree.

With more than 100km of groomed trails nestled in the pristine and private Ranch Creek valley at the base of the Continental Divide, we're the premiere Nordic center for Colorado cross country skiing, whether for skate or classic Nordic.

Novices can start the day with a private or group lesson from one of our friendly instructors. More seasoned Nordic enthusiasts will find our advanced technique clinics helpful. And of course, a wide variety of quality cross country ski equipment is available for purchase or rental, including infant sleds and skijoring rigs.
