Bluebird Backcountry

A Ski Area Built By Volunteers

For the first two years of its existence, Bluebird Backcountry was solely run by volunteers. A community of passionate, driven skiers and riders came together to get the first human powered ski area off the ground.

Now that we are up and running - we want to keep that community built, grassroots, funky vibe alive.
