Mountain Peaks for Experts

Covered Wagon 

(9,565 ft/2,915 m)

This area off Chair 4 provides ideal access to renowned backcountry terrain.

Thimble Peak

(9,805 ft/2,989 m)

This is the highest peak in the resort and identifiable by the Cirque.  Steep expert runs abound and there are plenty of places to search out powder stashes.

The Sisters

(9,400 ft/2,865 m)

This peak has extreme skiing terrain that Kirkwood is well-known for and is not to be taken lightly.  The Sisters area is chalk-full of chutes, cliff drops, and purely radical terrain!

Glove Rock

(9,360 ft/2,853 m)

Offers up a plethora of challenging terrain to be skied and boarded.  There are steep descents, wide-open powder fields, and good hike-to-ski options for those looking for more vertical.

Martin Point 

(9,249 ft/2,819 m)

This is by far one of the biggest objectives in Kirkwood, as well as the most rewarding.  Here, you can ski unforgettable powder turns inbounds or head out the U.S. Forest Service gate to explore the endless backcountry.
