Broadway is a four-person detachable chairlift located at Sun Valley. The chairlift runs from the bottom of the Broadway trail up to the Roundhouse Restaurant on Bald Mountain. The chairlift only serves a couple of trails directly and mainly serves as the easiest and fastest way to return from the Seattle Ridge area to the rest of the mountain. The chairlift was manufactured by Doppelmayr and installed at the resort in 2020, replacing the 1970 Riblet Cold Springs double chairlift in a new alignment that was extended further down the mountain.

The resort is located in Blaine County, about a 15-minute drive north of Hailey, a 1.5-hour drive north of Twin Falls, a 2.5-hour drive east of Boise, a 3-hour drive northwest of Pocatello and west of Idaho Falls, and a 4.5-hour drive northwest of Salt Lake City, Utah. Sun Valley comprises of two separate mountains. Bald Mountain, the larger of the two mountains, is located above the town of Ketchum and is known for its consistently steep and long groomers, including those off of the Challenger chairlift, the largest chairlift in the world by vertical feet. Dollar Mountian, located closer to the Sun Valley Resort, is a small family-oriented hill with a variety of beginner and intermediate terrain for less experienced skiers, as well as the ski area's largest terrain parks.

The resort is a partner of the Ikon Pass, with base pass holders receiving five days at the mountain and full pass holders receiving seven days.
