This puts Breckenridge at more than 2,400 acres of open terrain with all but one run open on Peak 7. The terrain is accessible via traverse from the top of Peak 8, which is a hike from the Imperial Express SuperChair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of our high Alpine terrain, specifically hike-to terrain, just takes a little more effort and time to access in order to complete necessary prep work.
