On the Hill: Slacklining at Eagle’s Nest on Vail Mountain
June 28, 2013
On the Hill Summer, brought to you by The Steadman Clinic and the Steadman Philippon Research Institute, brings you a video report about a different High Country adventure every weekday.
Today’s activity: Slacklining at Eagle’s Nest.
Conditions: On hot days like we’ve been having, Eagle’s Nest atop the Eagle Bahn Gondola is a great place to cool down and enjoy some really fun activities, of which there are many. The Eagle’s Nest slackline park has several slacklines set up where you can practice for hours on end, and with Talon’s Deck nearby serving up delicious angus beef Epic burgers, it’s among the best places in Vail to enjoy a nice lunch with some fun activities near by.
Tomorrow’s weather: A slight chance of showers, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 10am. Partly sunny, with a high near 69. South southwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming north northwest in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 40%.. — National Weather Service
