Keystone Resort experienced a brief power outage Thursday morning, Jan. 2, that impacted operations, according to a statement from the resort.

The power outage occurred around 11:20 a.m. Lifts on the front side of the mountain remained open for skiing and facilities and lodges on the front side also remained open for access to water and restrooms, Keystone communications manager Max Winter said.

Power was partially restored at 12:30 p.m., allowing the resort to reopen its lifts and terrain on North Peak and in Bergman Bowl as well as food and beverage service at Timber Ridge, Mountain House and Labonte’s BBQ Smoke House, Winter said.



Xcel Energy is still working to fully restore power to the area as soon as possible, Winter said around 3:20 p.m. on Thursday.
