Since then, South Fork has grown into a tourist and recreation center. It was initially developed as a community servicing the lumber and mining industries of the mid- to late- 1800’s. The town of South Fork is only 18 miles from Wolf Creek and located at the southwestern end of the San Luis Valley. In addition, Pagosa Springs offers a range of amenities and accommodations for the destination vacation traveler. The town adopted its name from the areas Great Pagosa’s Hot Springs (one of the largest mineral springs in the world). The town is situated on the valley floor next to the San Juan River, and surrounded by the spectacular San Juan Mountains. Pagosa Springs is a hub for recreation and tourism in the “Four Corners” Area. These two towns offer a wide variety of restaurants, lodging options from economy to upscale, and numerous year-round indoor and outdoor recreational activities for everyone to enjoy including: fly fishing, horseback riding, hiking mountain biking, skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, shopping, guided tours, hunting, sightseeing, wildlife watching, and much more.

In addition, it has nearly 10 kilometers of groomed and un-groomed cross-country ski trail. The mountain offers high alpine skiing and riding on both groomed and often powder conditions, including the new Horseshoe Bowl with 200 new acres of great glade skiing and riding. The town has coined the phrase “The most snow in Colorado” and it’s true with more than 450 inches of the white stuff falling on its diverse terrain every year. at higher tension settings Type 3 classification may reduce the likelihood of boot release from binding during a fall.This is a jewel of a ski area that sits on top of Wolf Creek Pass just off Highway 160. Type 3 skiers prefer skiing at high speed in control on the steepest terrain. Type 2 skiers prefer skiing at a variety of speeds and more varied terrain. Type 1 settings also apply to entry level skiers who may be unsure of their classification.
Type 1 skiers prefer skiing on gently sloped terrain at slower speeds. The tension setting will determine how easy or difficult it be for your boot to release from your binding in case of a fall. You will classify yourself as either a I, II, or III, I being the lowest tension setting and III being the highest. It is the skiers' responsibility to determine their own skier type. Skier Type is a skier classification system based on what type of skiing you will be participating in, and it determines the tension level at which your binding will be set. You will be required to select a Skier Type when booking reservations Rental reservations cannot be picked up the evening before.
