there used to be a couple lifts on berthoud pass, but they are long since abandoned. Yeah, berthoud pass has some sexy back country and an excelent hitch-hiker charilift. If you hike a little, you can actually ride 7 miles top to bottom, hop in the back of somebodys truck and get in 4 or 5 solid runs per day.

Aside from loveland pass, its the only non-hiking backcountry of any merit in the area.
