Editor’s Note: The Vail Daily’s Tricia Swenson has compiled this information from talks with longtime locals, her own experience as a Beaver Creek Children’s Ski and Snowboard School instructor and from books from the Avon Public Library.
The first known inhabitants of the Beaver Creek Valley were primarily the Utes as well as hunting parties from the Cheyenne and Arapahoe tribes. The Utes were called “Blue Sky People” by other tribes. They called the peaks that surrounded them “The Shining Mountains.”
Ski season is upon us and being outside on the slopes just might be one of the safest places to be this year.

SUGAR MOUNTAIN
Sugar Mountain Resort boasts the largest vertical drop â 1,200 feet â of all the resorts in North Carolina, in addition to the largest area for skiing.
The resort, located in the Village of Sugar Mountain, has some of the most picturesque views from the top in the region.
Sonntag’s appointment comes following current WB COO Dave Brownlie’s announcement last month that he’d be stepping down from his post after nearly three decades working for the resort. Sonntag, the current head of Vail’s Lake Tahoe region will be stepping into the role as soon as his work visa paperwork is complete ideally next month, he said. After beginning his ski industry career as an instructor for the Beaver Creek Ski & Snowboard School, Sonntag was eventually promoted to adult ski and snowboard school director in 2001. He went on to direct the Copper Mountain Resort Ski & Ride School and skier services at Keystone Resort and Vail Mountain Ski & Snowboard School, before being appointed to lead Heavenly Mountain Resort in 2010, eventually taking on the senior vice president position in 2015.
