Insider Tips
Get the 411 on Kirkwood
Kirkwood's remote beauty and unspoiled vistas are what make it a true mountain escape. Around here, it's about getting a good night's rest and charging hard bright and early. When the send-o-meter is running low, grab a slice at the Cornice Pizza and finish out the day watching patrol do their sweep. Kirkwood may seem small but it has a big heart, and so does the community that supports it. You'll likely see familiar faces around the resort, so don't be shy. Everyone loves a good tomahawk story.
