+ About this map
Sun Valley is where American destination skiing began. Founded in 1936, it installed the world’s first chairlift that same winter and drew Hollywood to the mountains of central Idaho. Its centerpiece is Bald Mountain, rising to 9,150 feet above the town of Ketchum, prized for a rare consistency of pitch: 124 trails that hold their fall line from top to bottom with almost no flats. Bowls spill off the ridgetops while long groomers run the flanks.
The contour map traces Baldy’s evenly spaced ridges and drainages, the geometry behind one of the most perfectly pitched ski mountains anywhere.
