It's a 5 minute walk, max, to the Red Pine Gondola at base IF SunriseLift was not operating. We walked it daily in early 2022 w adult children& 4 grandchildren. My understanding is Vail Resorts has a new CEO, hasraised the minimum pay rate for employees to a more competitive rate andshould thus see increased # of employees so as to staff all availablelifts for the upcoming season! Yea!!!

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question but you can just walk to thegondola- it is at the base of canyons village. there is no shuttle to thegondola since that is pedestrian area only (unless construction haschanged that). At the end of your ski day, you can either take thegondola back down to the base or ski down to the base area and then walkback to the hotel.
