Encouraged by the results of a successful two-week trial run last winter to test a new concept in Colorado skiing, owners of the Bluebird Backcountry ski area have decided to move forward this winter with a full season at a new location with better snow and three times the terrain. Touted as Colorado’s newest ski area, albeit one without lifts, Bluebird will be located near the foot of the east side of Rabbit Ears Pass.
