About Sunrise
|
In the heart of Arizona's magnificent White
Mountains, Sunrise Park Resort is a recreational paradise offering a
wide range of fun and excitement. In winter, our three mountains
offer some of the finest skiing in the Western United States. Our 65
runs promise adventure for skiers of any level. There is also a
separate snowboarding area, cross country ski trails and a special
childrens's "ski-wee" area.
You can escape into the wilderness, ski, mountain
bike, enjoy our annual festivals and fish to your heart's content.
Or you can simply look out on some of the most beautiful land in
Arizona. Summer or winter, when you come to Sunrise Park Resort in
the White Mountains of Arizona, you'll find a land, and excitement,
you'll want to experience throughout the year.
Skiers and Snowboarders alike won't want to miss the Sunrise Express
High Speed Detachable Quad Chairlift. Beginning in the '97-98 season
this lift replaced the primary lift on the Sunrise Mountain and
anchors the ten lifts at the area resulting in an uphill skier
capacity of more than 16,000 skiers per hour.
For Snowboarders and Skiers Sunrise offers a TerrainPark. Within
site of Sunrise Day Lodge, the park features a snow half pipe,
implanted wood and metal rails, and a special event area with jumps
ranging from beginner to advanced.
