This is my kind of mountain. There is no running water at the area and that says it all. People don't come to hang out, look cool, and drink wine while they dine in a fancy restaurant. They come for the real goods - skiing! Spending a season or more at a normal resort you will inevitably learn the mountain, connect with like minded skiers, team up, and hit the best fall lines for the conditions. At Silverton, one can show up and accomplish that in just one day. It's a great concept: form groups of expert skiers and send them off with a guide who knows the mountain for the best skiing. As a retired ski bum who now makes his living in the regular world, it was a soul refreshing experience to connect with other skiers and the mountain in that way.

Small groups with guides, great powder, rugged Colorado mountains and an all around adventuresome atmosphere.

While in Durango Colorado we got the steam train to old mining town Silverton. You are transported back to the 1800's. The journey takes all day from 8.30 returning at 6 pm as it's an 8 hour round trip. The train takes you through the most stunning scenery along the way. Children will love it. There is a local historian who will answer your questions walking through the train. The staff are informative and helpful. At Silverton there are interesting buildings of the era and good food to buy. Worth the journey and the cost was very reasonable for the day.

Situated in a valley leading north of Silverton is one of the most original, true to it's spirit skiresort I've ever been to. The mountain is a hard master with thinn air, steep and technical challanges. So better be well prepared physically. I will be next time... :)

This area is a bit depressed and really depends on the tourist trade but it is a beautiful place to visit. We came up the Million Dollar Highway and the scenery is just incredible. Cute shops, a small museum and the end depot for the Durango-Silverton narrow gauge railroad. That train was quite impressive. Would like to come back to do the train ride. The best surprise was at the National Forest Service office where the volunteer is a resident that has also authored several books about the area. Fun!!

Great place for beautiful mountains and places to see and shop. We went in the Old Arcade and it was great. The ladies in there were so friendly and helpful. We checked out several other places to shop but went back to the Old Arcade. When we asked if there were other places they were very helpful and honest in telling us that there were other places to look at for what we were looking for. But, we found that t

I liked the old buildings and the history of the town. The old buildings have such character and charm. I loved the train. We rode it on our first time in Silverton and this time we watched it come into town, still exciting to see it round the mountain and blow the whistle. i loved looking at the mountains around the town.There was nothing i didn't like about our visit there.

This mountain is by far the most dangerous in North America. There are no easy ways down and you need to be fit, acclimated and technically adept. I had a wonderful experience but the rest of my group, all advanced/expert riders, did not due to lack of fitness. I'm writing this review because I think people should understand what they're getting into before they show upThe guides were great, the snow and the runs fantastic and the scenery magnificent. However, dont think you can show up one day after arriving from sea level with a decent skiing/boarding skill set and enjoy yourself, you will get crushed! Make sure you're a double black all conditions type and you'll have a great experience. I'd echo the sentiments of the other reviewer, you could die here.

Silverton is a beautiful little mining town that is nestled in the Colorado mountains. It is amazing to see the little village from high above the highway as you make your way down into town. Cute restaurants and gift shops...and a wonderful steam train ride from Durangp to Silverton if you like.

If you are a serious skier, you probably already know about it's reputation. No matter how good you are, there is terrain to challenge you. If you have any doubts about your abilities, this is not the place for you. I have seen grown men freeze up in fear in certain locations. If you can afford it, do a heli drop for $159 - best deal going in heli skiing. But beware, heli drops are addicting
