Keystone is aware of the on-going growth of snowboarding and that it's no longer enough to slap up a half pipe and put out some marketing material using lots of formerly fashionable snowboarding terminology - words like 'Rad' and 'Gnarly' for example! Instead, the resort is treating snowboarders as the same diverse mix of individuals as for most other sports and aims to offer terrain and tuition programs that suit everyone from beginners to hardcore extreme pros, regardless of haircut, fashion sense, preferred use of the English language, attitude to life in general, racial origin or sexual or religious orientation. Keystone's natural terrain includes Dercum Mountain for groomed beginner trails, North Peak for tree 'boarding and bumps and The Outback for powder stashes and gladed terrain. In general, the terrain design has few flats and uplift is provided by chairs and gondolas, more than a third of the 20 lifts are either high speed quad or cabin lifts. The resort's 20 acre Terrain Park on Keystone Mountain is illuminated for night riding. Dubbed Area 51, it features table tops, hips, spines, gaps and rails. Located in Packsaddle bowl, the park features two half pipes, one designed for beginners, the other goes beyond Olympic spec to maximise big air opportunities. A second terrain park has been created on the Jackwhacker intermediate-advanced trail. The run has been regraded to offer riders a more challenging vertical. The trail features table tops, hips, spines and other jumps of various sizes.
