EpicMix pins revealed: Keystone

1/18/2011 8:34 PM

For part 5 in the series, we head over to Summit County to check out some of the EpicMix pins that can be had at Keystone. I thought it great that they named the top pin at Keystone after Max & Edna Dercum, who were instrumental in the creation of both A-Basin and Keystone. I didn’t find any pins for night skiing or the A51 terrain park, but I suspect they are out there. Here are the pins I found that can be earned at Keystone.

Lock N' Key - Earned for your first visit to Keystone
Opening Day Keystone - Earned for attending Keystone's opening day
Key Summit - Earned for two times on the Outback Express Chair
Outback - Earned for riding the Outback Express five times in one day
North Peak - Earned for tackling every lift on the peak
Keystone Conqueror - Earned for riding every lift on Keystone
Kidtopia - Earned for attending Kidtopia
Key Pow - Earned for hitting Keystone with a 6 inch snow check in
Lock Smith - Earned for 10 days in one season at Keystone
Skeleton Key - Earned for 25 days in one season at Keystone
Dercum - Earned for 50 days in one season at Keystone

Be sure to check out the rest of the series for EpicMix pins available at the other resorts. Parts 1 & 2 from Vail are located here & here, part 3 from Beaver Creek, part 4 from Heavenly, and next week we will feature Breckenridge. Now go get some pins!!
