2021 Colorado Code|Title 33 - Parks and Wildlife|Article 33 - Colorado Natural Areas|§ 33-33-108. Designation of a Natural Area

  A natural area that has been found by the commission, pursuant to its criteria, to be desirable for inclusion within the system and which inclusion has been approved by the owner of the land, becomes a designated natural area when articles of designation have been filed with the commission by the owner of the land or by a governmental agency having ownership or control of the land and such articles have been accepted by the commission with the advice and recommendation of the council.    Articles of designation filed with the commission under subsection (1) of this section shall:   Constitute a management agreement for the designated natural area;    Contain a purpose clause defining the attributes which are the basis for the area's designation;    Define the respective rights and duties of the owner and the commission;    Contain provisions relating to management, development, use, public access, sale, or transfer of the area;    Provide procedures to be applied in case of any violation of such articles;    Contain such other provisions as may be necessary or advisable to carry out the purposes of this article, which shall include the recognition of reversionary rights if less than fee simple title has been acquired; and    Contain the legal description of the designated property.       The commission may, with the approval or upon the request of the owner of an interest therein and with the approval of the council, amend the articles of a designated natural area.    A notice of the designation shall be certified by the commission to the county clerk and recorder in the county or counties in which the designated natural area is located for filing in the same manner as any document affecting real property.

2021 Colorado Code|Title 33 - Parks and Wildlife|Article 44 - Ski Safety and Liability|§ 33-44-102. Legislative Declaration

 The general assembly hereby finds and declares that it is in the interest of the state of Colorado to establish reasonable safety standards for the operation of ski areas and for the skiers using them. Realizing the dangers that inhere in the sport of skiing, regardless of any and all reasonable safety measures that can be employed, the purpose of this article 44 is to supplement the passenger tramway safety provisions of article 150 of title 12; to further define the legal responsibilities of ski area operators and their agents and employees; to define the responsibilities of skiers using such ski areas; and to define the rights and liabilities existing between the skier and the ski area operator and between skiers.   History. Source: L. 79: Entire article added, p. 1237, § 1, effective July 1. L. 2019: Entire section amended,(HB 19-1172), ch. 136, p. 1720, § 222, effective October 1.    Cross references:   For the nonstatutory legislative declaration in SB 90-80, which amended several sections in this article 44, see section 1 of chapter 256, Session Laws of Colorado 1990.   ANNOTATION   Purpose of this act is to establish reasonable safety standards and to define relative rights and responsibilities of ski area operators and skiers. Graven v. Vail Assocs., Inc., 909 P.2d 514 (Colo. 1995).   But neither this act nor the statutory provisions concerning passenger tramway safety (part 7 of article 5 of title 25, C.R.S.) preempts or supersedes the common law standard of care applicable to ski lift operators, to use the highest degree of care commensurate with the practical operation of the lift, regardless of the season. The general assembly did not intend for the regulations adopted by the tramway board to preclude common law negligence actions against ski lift operators or the duty to exercise the highest degree of care. Bayer v. Crested Butte Mtn. Resort, 960 P.2d 70 (Colo. 1998).   Neither this act nor the statutory provisions concerning passenger tramway safety (part 7 of article 5 of title 25) bars exculpatory agreements. Brigance v. Vail Summit Resorts, Inc., 883 F.3d 1243 (10th Cir. 2018).   By excluding ski lift accidents from the definition of “inherent dangers and risks of skiing”, the general assembly clearly chose not to alter the common law standard of care applicable to ski lift safety: the highest degree of care commensurate with the practical operation of the lift, regardless of the season. Bayer v. Crested Butte Mtn. Resort, 960 P.2d 70 (Colo. 1998).

2021 Colorado Code|Title 33 - Parks and Wildlife|Article 44 - Ski Safety and Liability|§ 33-44-104. Negligence - Civil Actions

  A violation of any requirement of this article shall, to the extent such violation causes injury to any person or damage to property, constitute negligence on the part of the person violating such requirement.    A violation by a ski area operator of any requirement of this article 44 or any rule promulgated by the passenger tramway safety board pursuant to section 12-150-105 (1)(a) shall, to the extent such violation causes injury to any person or damage to property, constitute negligence on the part of such operator.    All rules adopted or amended by the passenger tramway safety board are subject to sections 24-4-103 (8)(c) and (8)(d) and 24-34-104 (6)(b), C.R.S.     History.

Supp. 520 (D. Colo. 1988 ).   This article would apply to ski accident cases which involve dangerous conditions that are ordinarily present at ski areas and § 13-21-115 would protect skiers against those dangerous conditions that are not commonly present at ski areas. Giebink v. Fischer, 709 F. Supp. 1012 (D. Colo. 1989 ).   A ski operator's negligence, which is established by a statutory violation of the Ski Safety Act that causes injury to a skier, is not an inherent danger or risk of skiing. Doering ex rel. Barrett v. Copper Mtn., Inc., 259 F.3d 1202 (10th Cir. 2001).   Although the general assembly specifies in this section that any violation of statute or rule is negligence per se, in the absence of clear legislative intent to the contrary, this statutory remedy does not bar preexisting common law rights of action. The provisions of this section act to supplement, rather than bar, common law actions in ski lift accident cases. Bayer v. Crested Butte Mtn. Resort, 960 P.2d 70 (Colo. 1998).

  No passenger shall board a passenger tramway if he does not have sufficient physical dexterity, ability, and knowledge to negotiate or use such facility safely or until such passenger has asked for and received information sufficient to enable him to use the equipment safely. A passenger is required to follow any written or verbal instructions that are given to him regarding the use of the passenger tramway.    No passenger shall:   Embark upon or disembark from a passenger tramway except at a designated area except in the event of a stoppage of the passenger tramway (and then only under the supervision of the operator) or unless reasonably necessary in the event of an emergency to prevent injury to the passenger or others;    Throw or expel any object from any passenger tramway while riding on such device, except as permitted by the operator;    Act, while riding on a passenger tramway, in any manner that may interfere with proper or safe operation of such passenger tramway;    Engage in any type of conduct that may contribute to or cause injury to any person;    Place in an uphill track of a J-bar, T-bar, platter pull, rope tow, or any other surface lift any object that could cause another skier to fall;    Embark upon a passenger tramway marked as closed;    Disobey any instructions posted in accordance with this article or any verbal instructions by the ski area operator regarding the proper or safe use of a passenger tramway unless such verbal instructions are contrary to this article or the rules promulgated under it, or contrary to posted instructions.

  Any motorized snow-grooming vehicle shall be equipped with a light visible at any time the vehicle is moving on or in the vicinity of a ski slope or trail.    Whenever maintenance equipment is being employed to maintain or groom any ski slope or trail while such ski slope or trail is open to the public, the ski area operator shall place or cause to be placed a conspicuous notice to that effect at or near the top of that ski slope or trail. This requirement shall not apply to maintenance equipment transiting to or from a grooming project.    All snowmobiles operated on the ski slopes or trails of a ski area shall be equipped with at least the following: One lighted headlamp, one lighted red tail lamp, a brake system maintained in operable condition, and a fluorescent flag at least forty square inches mounted at least six feet above the bottom of the tracks.    The ski area operator shall have no duty arising out of its status as a ski area operator to any skier skiing beyond the area boundaries marked as required by section 33-44-107 (6).    The ski area operator, upon finding a person skiing in a careless and reckless manner, may revoke that person's skiing privileges. This subsection (5) shall not be construed to create an affirmative duty on the part of the ski area operator to protect skiers from their own or from another skier's carelessness or recklessness.

Phillips v. Monarch Recreation Corp., 668 P.2d 982 (Colo. App. 1983).   Issue of duty to warn is an issue of fact to be determined by a jury if the issue is alleged to be one of the factors that led to plaintiff's injuries. Graven v.

  The ski area operator shall, prior to use of any portion of the area made available by the ski area operator, allow each competitor an opportunity to reasonably visually inspect the course, venue, or area.    The competitor shall be held to assume the risk of all course, venue, or area conditions, including, but not limited to, weather and snow conditions; obstacles; course or feature location, construction, or layout; freestyle terrain configuration and conditions; and other courses, layouts, or configurations of the area to be used.

ANNOTATION   This section and not former § 13-80-110 is the applicable statute of limitations for actions to recover damages for an injury in a ski area. Schafer v. Aspen Skiing Corp., 742 F.2d 580 (10th Cir. 1984).   Three-year statute of limitations in this section does not violate equal protection or constitutional provisions governing special legislation, grant of special privileges or immunities, or access to courts. Schafer v. Aspen Skiing Corp., 742 F.2d 580 (10th Cir. 1984).   Neither § 2-4-107 nor § 2-4-108 applicable in determining the computation of the statute of limitations in this section. Schafer v. Aspen Skiing Corp., 742 F.2d 580 (10th Cir. 1984).   Statute not applicable to action resulting from injury occurring in a parking lot. Since the term “ski area” does not include an area devoted to the parking of motor vehicles and the operation of shuttle buses, none of the provisions of this act, including the statute of limitations in this section, are applicable. McLean v. Winter Park Recreational Ass'n, 762 P.2d 751 (Colo. App. 1988).
