A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
Wolf Creek may be the world capitol of tree skiing. The trees are far apart, you can go anywhere, any direction, (as long as you can handle double-black diamond) and not get stuck in thickets, not end up outside the ski area. Total freedom, and of course the legendary powder. Usually they get 1 or 2 powder days every week, and you can find soft stuff back in the trees for days after that too. As a bonus, it is rarely crowded, and everything is affordable too!

Visited with my family. Great time! Definitely will go back. Awesome terrain, great powder and a relaxed atmosphere.

I am an older skier and so appreciated the patience and encouragement provided by the instructors. They help build confidence and expert advice. I cannot say enough good things about the staff The snow was also great of course and the views fantastic. The experience was only enhanced by the great food and beverages in Pagosa Springs

Maybe I hit Wolf Creek on a good day...the quality of the snow was great. They have really nice Intermediate and Advanced terrain though most of the runs are rather short with long Green and Blue runouts. Ticket and food prices are very reasonable, and the place has a very friendly atmosphere.

So much ungroomed goodness. Yet, enough groomers to satisfy. Been skiing here for about 30yrs. I’ve been to the big, ritzy mountains like Vail and Deer Valley, Keystone and Park City. I’ve been to solid skier’s-skier mountains like Copper Mountain and Crested Butte. But, my favorite place to ski is Wolf Creek. Maybe that’ll change one day. Whatever. Stay old school, stay small. Don’t let Pagosa swallow you up.

Definitely a skier’s ski resort

This is our go to ski area driving from Texas. Easy on the wallet and offers all-mountain terrain. Pagosa Springs has all the VRBO and cabins you need plus a nice downtown area for after ski happy hours. For the “ski-in-ski-out” folks this place is not for you.

A good family friendly resort for someone on a budget, but doesn't quite offer the size, resort, or vertical drop of other resorts. It does have a solid variety of terrain and some of the most snow in Colorado.

Been going to Wolf Creek since the early 1990s. I’ve been to high-dollar places in Colorado and Utah. Wolf Creek is still my favorite place to ski. You can burn groomers for laps on end with no lift lines, or you can hike to chutes, cornices, glades, and bowls. Just love this place so much.
