BOULDER—The 2013 National Champion University of Colorado ski team hit the slopes on the alpine side for the first time as a team in preparation for the 2014 season Friday night at Echo Mountain.

As the calendar turned from October to November, the Buffs focused turned toward Echo Mountain, a privately owned resort closed to the public focused on becoming the top Alpine Training Center in the United States. Echo Mountain will serve as the official preseason training facility for the 19-time National Champion Colorado Buffaloes ski team.

The mountain opened Friday night at 7:30 p.m. and the Buffs were among the first on the slopes.

“We resumed training in gates this weekend starting on Friday night under the lights,” CU coach Richard Rokos said. “Echo Mountain welcomed our alpine team with improved lights and a great training service.”

Since Echo Mountain isn’t open to the public, the snowmaking, grooming and terrain construction are built specifically for alpine ski racers.
