Friday Afternoon Club at Keystone Resort
2021 Update: Keystone is not running their usual Friday Afternoon Club this summer.
Ever find yourself wondering how to kill a few hours and not knowing what to do on a Friday? Is it too early to go out and explore nightlife, but too late to start on an adventure like a hike or a bike ride? Perhaps you find yourselves in a situation where you just aren't quite ready for dinner. Well if you find yourself in that sort of situation on a Friday in Keystone why not jump on the Gondola for the Friday Afternoon Club!
Enjoy a free ride to the top of Dercum Mountain aboard the River Run Gondola. The ride will take you up to Keystone's Summit House where you will enjoy an evening of fun atop Dercum Mountain. Every Friday there will be live music from great local bands. Atop the mountain you can also enjoy the fun (and free!) yard games provided. Challenge your friends to a game of Ladderball, Cornhole, Bocce or Horseshoes among others while you take in the breathtaking views from the top of Dercum Mountain towards Lake Dillon and Buffalo Mountain. Relax and listen to the music while sipping a glass of wine or cold beer. If you do find yourselves feeling hungry there is plenty of mouthwatering food being served up at the Overlook Grille as you enjoy supper at 12,000 feet above sea level!
The Friday Afternoon Club runs every Friday throughout the summer from 4pm to 7pm. The gondola is still active all other days of the week and you can still ride it to the top to enjoy the scenery and atmosphere of the top of Dercum Mountain but it is only free on Friday afternoons and for foot passengers only. Kick off the weekend the right way by enjoying yourself atop Keystone Resort!
