and personal awareness can help reduce. Know your ability level and stay within it. Observe “Your Responsibility

hazards. When marked, poles, flags, fencing, signage, padding or other forms of marking are used to inform the
skier/rider of the location of a potential obstacle or hazard. These markers are no guarantee of your safety. It is
part of your responsibility under the Your Responsibility Code and the Colorado Ski Safety Act to avoid all
obstacles and hazards.
COLORADO SKI SAFETY ACT. The Colorado legislature, recognizing risks that are inherent in the sport, has
passed the Colorado Ski Safety Act which provides inherent risks of the sport and relative responsibilities of the
“skier“ and the ski area. You must obey the Act. Under the Act, any person using the facilities of a ski area is
considered a skier. A summary of the inherent risks is listed below:
WARNING
Under Colorado law, a skier assumes the risk of any injury to person or property resulting from any of the
inherent dangers and risks of skiing and may not recover from any ski area operator for any injury resulting from
any of the inherent dangers and risks of skiing, including: changing weather conditions; existing and changing
snow conditions; bare spots; rocks; stumps; trees; collisions with natural objects, man-made objects, or other skiers;
variations in terrain; and the failure of skiers to ski within their own abilities.
How many VERTICAL FEET can you rack up in one day?
The Ski Safety Act was amended in 2004 to include CLIFFS, EXTREME TERRAIN, JUMPS AND FREESTYLE
TERRAIN as inherent dangers and risks of the sport.

double black diamond, or orange oval at Breckenridge Ski Resort is not necessarily the same as a similar
designation at other resorts. The system is a relative rating of trails at each resort and does not compare trail or
park difficulty between resorts. Skiers and Riders should begin with the easiest terrain and then move up in
difficulty as their ability permits in order to understand the relative rating at Breckenridge Ski Resort.
“SMART STYLE” IN FREESTYLE TERRAIN
Learn more at EpicMix.com
MAKE A PLAN. Every time you use Freestyle Terrain, make a plan for each feature you want to use. Your speed,
approach and takeoff will directly affect your maneuver and landing.
LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP. You are responsible for inspecting Freestyle Terrain before initial use and throughout
the day. The features vary in size and change constantly due to snow conditions, weather, usage, grooming and
time of day. Do not jump blindly. Use a spotter when necessary.
2012-13 EVENTS CALENDAR
EASY STYLE IT. Always ride or ski in control and within your ability level. Do not attempt Freestyle Terrain unless
you have sufficient ability and experience to do so safely. You control the degree of difficulty you will encounter
in using Freestyle Terrain, both on the ground and in the air.
RESPECT GETS RESPECT. Respect Freestyle Terrain and others. Only one person on a feature at a time. Wait your
turn and call your start. Always clear the landing area quickly. Respect all signs and do not enter Freestyle Terrain
or use features when closed.

HELMET USE. Breckenridge Ski Resort encourages our guests to wear a helmet. While helmets may mitigate
or reduce the severity of some head injuries, their use does not guarantee safety and will not prevent certain
injuries. Breckenridge Ski Resort reminds you that every winter sport participant shares responsibility for his or
her safety and for that of others using the ski area facilities.
