“What started over half a century ago as a tight-knit crew of ski bums, misfits, and mountain lovers has turned into an unstoppable legacy — The Ravinos.”
Formed in the 1970s, The Ravinos were a loose knit collection of like minded counter culture Vail skiers who laid down the foundation for extreme skiing as we know it today. After 51 years, The Ravinos are still kicking and they really know how to party. Check out this footage from the 2025 Ravinos Bash celebrating 51 years of carnage, camaraderie, and chaos. Incredible.
“From classic mountain rituals to new-school antics, this was a full-on reunion of epic proportions.”
John LaConte is a reporter for Vail Daily and card carrying member of The Ravinos and did an excellent article on the history of this incredible club. Highly recommend reading John’s article HERE.
