Inside Scoop

Reviews

Scott Larson

Sunlight is a basic ski focused mountain. What I mean is that fanciness holds no water at Sunlight. No one cares what vehicle you drive, what brand coat you are wearing, how expensive the drink is after you finish your day, etc. Skiing is what matters at Sunlight. That is how it is supposed to be. The East Bench has some outstanding expert runs that are both steep, tight, and glade skiing as well. Forget Sunlight if you want to bring attention to yourself. Head straight for Sunlight if you just want a GREAT ski experience.
