The resort also unveiled its new Winter Park Resort app which, officials say, gives visitors most services, like stat tracking, ordering food and real-time lift updates, at their fingertips. One such service is the trail map.

The resort says it will save more than 12,000 lbs. of paper by eliminating the trail maps. They also recognize the sentimental aspect of getting a physical map, the resort says they will still be for sale throughout the Village.

"We're making good on our commitments to the planet, our community and the next generation of mountain adventurers," said Liz Agostin, Vice President of Marketing for Winter Park Resort.

The app is free and available to all riders.

The ski train to Winter Park will return this ski season.
