Thanks to the Cuchara Co-op for meeting with us here at ColoradoSkiHistory.com to detail their plans and visions for the ski area. Brad, TCS from the Ski Museum, and Cameron from Skilifts.org were able to discuss plans with Steve Perkins, Bob Reece, and others from the Co-Op. Things are looking great for the valley and we look forward to working with them to bring back the ski area.

Cuchara Valley, once home to Colorado's southern most Front Range ski area is looking to reopen. Residents of the valley are exploring options to make Cuchara the first non-profit co-op resort in the Rocky Mountains. This operation model allows ownership to be spread over many individuals. Vermont's Mad River Glen ski area operates in this fashion.
To learn more about the efforts to reopen Cuchara, please visit the co-ops website: www.cuchararecreation.org.
Updates on the co-ops progress and route to reopening will be posted here.
