Ski Hesperus
|
Ski Hesperus is a tiny ski area near Durango, but what it lacks in acreage, it makes up with low cost and character. Hesperus features night skiing and snow tubing, both popular with locals, and some short but steep slopes. Due to the late hours, many locals head down to Ski Hesperus after Durango Mountain closes for the evening, to squeeze a few more hours of mountain time into their schedule.
