Beginners Vail
Vail offers many possibilities for beginners on the Front Side. On Gopher Hill in Village Mountain Plaza, at Eagle's Nest and at the Avanti Express, there are perfect practice slopes with their own lifts and people movers. The complete Front Side can be skied from Two Elk Lodge over Patrol Headquarters, Wildwood and to Eagle's Nest. There are even easy slopes in the Game Creek Bowl. Sometimes these are very easy connection paths. Easy slopes lead back to all valley runs. The Back Bowl and the Blue Sky Basin are taboo for beginners.
