    Tips

    June 26, 2023

    Traveling to the top of Peak Eight, the Imperial chair lift at Breckenridge Ski Resort is the highest chairlift in North America. It tops out at 12,840 feet, which is over 1,000 feet above treeline. The summit sees snow for much of the year, but it is an exposed talus field in the summer months.
