Ski or Snowboard Broken River

'BR' provides superb affordable alpine adventure - its a ski and snowboard lifestyle unique in the world and shouldn't be missed. The terrain is a series of rolling bowls with awesome runs to challenge all levels of snowboarders and skiers beginner to expert. The surrounding basins provide superb untracked 'back country' terrain for the more adventurous.

Broken River is administered by the Broken River Ski Club. It offers an alternative to skiers and snowboarders who are looking to experience back to basics fun in the snow. Everyone is welcome at Broken River, although some previous experience in the snow is an advantage. Membership has its advantages too, including lower lift rates for skiing/snowboarding as well as the fun and friendship being a part of the ski club brings.

Powderhound recommends Broken River! Margots gut is worth the ride.
