Nestled deep in the heart of the White River National Forest, Vail Powder Guides has over 3500 acres of terrain to explore. Vail Powder Guides’ owners, Jenna and Ben Bartosz, have a combined 41 years of providing quality guided deep powder skiing and snowboarding on Vail Pass. Ski, snowboard or telemark on Ptarmigan Pass, surrounding ridges, and the famous 10th Mountain Division training grounds. Vail Powder Guides’ terrain offers endless miles of open bowls, low angle glades,  and steeper tree runs coated with an average 350 inches of snowfall per year. At the end of a deep powder day, the natural beauty of pristine mountains is complimented by the warm ambiance and the cozy comforts of nearby ski towns and resorts.
