It's sandwiched between the Gore Mountain Range to the north and the Sawatch Mountain Range. Steep hills and jagged peaks make Vail a challenge for novice skiers, but its unpredictable terrain is actually an attractive feature for professionals.

The Importance of the Right Goggles

Ski goggles are an essential piece of equipment for skiers. They are used to protect the eyes from the elements, including airborne stones, snow, and wind. Specialty goggles will also protect the eyes from UV rays which can be concentrated when reflected off of white snow. There are many components when it comes to ski goggles, with many people choosing cheaper pairs to save money. However, the difference between a comprehensive pair of ski goggles and a cheap pair can be vast and can make a huge difference when it comes to how they perform.
