Fantastic FREE museum, showcasing 10th Mountain Division items an 45 min movie. Olympic trophies, and ski and snowboard equipment from beginning to modern on display. Really great gift shop as well.ud83dudc4dud83dudc4dud83dudc4d
First of all, the museum is free to stop by, but donations are appreciated. In addition, they have a gift shop with plenty of souvenirs for your trip to Vail. The museum covers the founding of the Vail ski area as well as some history on the evolution of ski technology and clothing, the ski patrol, the introduction of snowboarding into the winter sports world. There is also a small section on the history of the 10th Mountain Division and their trained soldier on skis.
This place is amazing. Great history of the sport, 10th Mountain Division and lost Colorado ski resorts.
I really didn't want to go, but was convinced to join visit and glad I was convinced. Great film on history of skiing arising out of WWII and the 10th Mountain Division. What an amazing bunch of men. Well worth taking some time to visit.
Cool little museum. The move about the 10th mountain division was very interesting!
