The official Vail trail map, published by Vail Mountain. This map covers the front side; the Back Bowls and Blue Sky Basin are a separate sheet. It shows every run, lift and sector across 195 trails served by 31 lifts, from 8,120ft at the base to 11,575ft at the summit.
Vail Mountain publishes the Vail map on their own site rather than as a file we can show here. The links below go straight to it.
Always check the resort's live trail status before setting off. Runs shown on a map are not necessarily open, and backcountry terrain is never patrolled unless the map says so.
Distances are straight-line, not by road.
