MONARCH IS THE PERFECT ski area for families from the southwest region, easily accessible and affordable. Surface lifts specifically for children in lesson programs and caring professional instructors help make Monarch an ideal place to take the young ones. Last season a new Ski School Center and Rental Shop opened to make it convenient to get what you need and hit the slopes.

FYI
Looking for great backcountry? Monarch has a couple options for you; Mirkwood Basin is 130 acres of "hike to heaven" with some double-black bowls, chutes and trees. Since 1990 Monarch Snowcat Tours has been taking people to the top of the Continental Divide to ski some fantastic terrain. The friendly Guides will take you to open bowls, steep tree runs, glades, cliffs and even show you some of the local's secret stash. You really need to experience a day with Monarch Snowcat Tours to make your season complete.
