The front side of Purgatory features some of the resort's more leisurely
runs. On the skiers left side are some long cruisers, mild bumps, and
the steepest trails. Purgatory is located in southwestern Colorado and
gets more sunny days per year than any other Colorado resort.
Editors Note: Purgatory's setup is such that many runs on the
front side end in a valley. This allows you to see across much of the
base to other lifts. Purgatory is near Durango which is a great town
to visit!
