COLD SPRINGS CANYON PROJECTThe ski area within the ski area. A special place to glide down a wide-open bowl, navigate through trees, and test your skills down steep chutes. This is the proposed Cold Springs Canyon project area that will expand the skiable terrain by 380 acres at Sun Valley Resort.
When the project is complete, it will include replacing the resort’s oldest chairlift, Cold Springs (#4), with a detachable quad, providing a seamless transition to The Roundhouse for a bite to eat or to the Roundhouse Express gondola and Christmas (#3) chairlift. For those who prefer groomers and gradual pitches, the Lower Broadway run is being extended 3,400 feet, lined with highly efficient snowmaking guns, all the way to the new Cold Springs lift lower terminal. Construction may begin as early as Summer 2018. sunvalley.com/futureplans
LEARN THE TYPES OF TERRAINSun Valley’s Dollar Mountain and Bald Mountain encompass very diverse landscape. It is important to understand the different terrain offered in order to use it safely alongside all other mountain guests.
“GO WITH THE FLOW” TERRAINThese areas of the mountain are for a more relaxed and social atmosphere designed to accommodate the widest range of skiers and riders. A “Go with the Flow” approach sets the tone for an inclusive, fun, and welcoming environment for all ages and ability levels.
FREESTYLE TERRAINFreestyle Terrain, as opposed to groomed runs, can contain jumps, hits, ramps, banks, boxes, rails, and other man-made features. The orange “Smart Style” symbol identifies freestyle terrain on the mountain—it’s important to understand the “Smart Style” safety guidelines in order to use this terrain safely.
• Start Small: Every time you use freestyle terrain, make a plan for each feature you want to use. Your speed, approach, and take off will directly affect your maneuverability and landing.
• Look Before You Leap: Scope around the jumps first, not over them. Know your landings are clear and clear yourself out of the landing area.
• Easy Style It: Start small and work your way up (inverted aerials not recommended).
• Respect Gets Respect: From the lift line through the park.
FAMILY AREASThese special areas of the mountain provide a slower and more relaxed atmosphere designed to accommodate the widest range of abilities. Safe travel and avoiding uncomfortable situations sets the tone for a courteous, “Go with the Flow” skiing and riding experience.
SLOW ZONESSun Valley’s Slow Zones require very slow travel at all times. These high-use areas, attracting a diverse set of abilities, are monitored by mountain staff who enforce slow skiing/riding. Please join us in extending courteous, comfortable and safe recreation to everyone who shares Sun Valley’s Mountain Community.
KIDS ADVENTURE TRAILS Baldy’s Adventure Trails network offers fun, forested trail-skiing and riding for kids to practice their skills and enjoy nature. The trails are filled with natural turns, twists, and rollers for all to enjoy.

SAFETY FIRST
Your Responsibility CodeSkiing and snowboarding can be enjoyed in many ways. Alpine, snowboard, telemark, cross-country and other specialized ski equipment, such as adaptive equipment, may be found at Sun Valley. Regardless of how you decide to enjoy the slopes, always show courtesy to others. Be aware that there are elements of risk in winter sports that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce. Observe the code listed below and share with other mountain users the responsibility for a great mountain experience.
1. Always stay in control.2. People ahead of you have the right of way.3. Stop in a place that is safe for you and others.4. Whenever starting downhill or merging, look uphill and yield.5. Use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.6. Observe signs and warnings and keep off closed trails.7. Know how to use the lifts safely.
Be safety conscious and know the code. It’s your responsibility. This is a partial list, officially endorsed by the National Ski Areas Association.
Blaine County Ordinance No. 86, Section 4
• Reckless mountain use prohibited: No mountain user shall ski or ride in a reckless or negligent manner.
• Entering a closed area is prohibited: No mountain user shall enter or go into any closed area.• Duties of a ski lift passenger: No passenger shall bounce, stand up,
or ride a ski lift in a reckless or negligent manner. • Penalties: Any person who violates any of the provisions in Section 4 of this Ordinance is guilty
of a misdemeanor and shall, upon conviction, be sentenced to a fine of not more than $300, or imprisonment in the Blaine County Jail for a period of not more than six months, or both.
This is a partial list.Be aware. Ski with care.
Be ProactiveThis is a mountain environment with many hazards and risks. By entering this environment, you assume and accept all associated risks. Be proactive! Educate yourself on the risks and be aware:
• Always ski or ride with a partner.• The difficulty ratings assigned to Sun Valley trails are based on difficulty relative to other trails on
the same mountain. Users of all ability levels should begin with easier trails before advancing. • Sun Valley does not mark every hazard. Markings will not protect you from injury. It is up to
you to avoid obstacles and hazards, marked or unmarked. Obstacles and hazards in this area include but are not limited to: variations in terrain, variations in surface or subsurface snow or ice conditions, bare spots, rocks, trees, other forms of forest growth or debris, lift towers and components thereof, and utility poles.
• Avoid deep snow and tree wells, as these areas expose mountain users to risk of snow immersion, injuries, and fatalities.
• Snowmaking and grooming equipment and vehicles may operate on and around the mountain throughout the day. Watch for and avoid these.
• Idaho Code states that collisions while skiing or riding, between any persons, are the responsibility of the persons involved, not of the area operator. Blaine County law requires that in the event of a collision, you stop to determine any injury and (unless released by the injured party) remain at the scene until Ski Patrol arrives.
• Though Sun Valley makes efforts to minimize risk of in-bounds avalanches, these natural events cannot always be avoided. Stay out of closed areas, do not ski or ride alone, and be aware of your surroundings. Call Ski Patrol immediately if you witness an avalanche.
• Areas beyond the ski area boundary are not patrolled or maintained, and Sun Valley assumes no responsibility for the safety or welfare of mountain users in these areas. Rescue in the backcountry, if available, is the responsibility of Blaine County Search & Rescue, a service often very costly to the user.
• These maps are renderings only. Actual conditions will vary. There are trees, rocks, cliffs, and other features that are not shown. Ski and ride with caution.
• Per Idaho Code Ann. § 6-1100, mountain users recognize and assume the inherent risks of
winter sports in Idaho.
This is a partial list. Be aware. Ski with care.
Bald Mountain Travel Policy
• Uphill travel is NOT ALLOWED between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. daily.• Uphill travel is ALLOWED after 4 p.m. and before 9 a.m.• All uphill traffic must turn around and descend by 9 a.m.• All uphill traffic must wear reflective clothing and/or safety lights.• Stay clear of all machinery.• Adhere to all trail closures.• For safety, please leave pets at home.
