Recap: Keystone 12-6-2008

Categories: Entertainment, Keystone

I'll be honest, the snow hasn't been great in Summit County. It's only been in the last few weeks that we've seen a lot of fresh snow up there. This was the first "real" day of skiing for me (opening weekend was just for practice). We headed up to Keystone on Friday night to catch the Friday Night Lights free concert by Girl Talk. The turnout was amazing and as long as you kept dancing around you could stay warm in the 20-degree air. After the concert a lot of people stuck around in River Run and headed to spots like Parrot ...

A new line of snowboards called 'Love' from Burton have nearly-nude models on them and Vail Resorts, Winter Park, and Echo Mountain (so far) have prohibited employees from riding on them. Sure it's common sense. Even though they aren't preventing guests (and off-the-clock employees) from using them, I wonder how long until someone makes a big deal about it.

CBS 4 Denver has compiled a listing of movies filmed in Colorado. We combed the list and found movies filmed in the Colorado mountains and snow towns that we've come to know and love: White Fang 2 (Aspen) Christmas Vacation (Breckenridge) Die Hard 2 (Breckenridge) Dumb and Dumber (Aspen, Breckenridge) The Maverick Queen (Silverton) The Searchers (Aspen) Sleeper (the crazy house seen from I-70) It's just some fun trivia. Now go! Impress your friends. No related posts.

Written By: Devin Reams
More spring fun starts next week up in Vail with a week-long festival celebrating the sun and the snow: The mountains will be alive with free concerts from national headliners, on-snow events, street parties…and don’t miss the ever-popular…Bacardi World Pond Skimming Championships. So head on up to Vail and have a good time. Check the website for details on the schedule, concerts, and information about pond skimming (sliding across a pond in a crazy costume on your skis/snowboard). It'll be good!

Quick News

There are a ton of parties, events, and concerts coming to Denver this week as the snowsports industry descends on Denver, Colorado. The 2010 SIA Snow Show trade expo will be taking over downtown. Even if you’re not attending the show, you should be downtown this week as there will be plenty of fun to be had. Check out the Apres Ski website for the comprehensive list of events: http://www.denver.org/apresski/home.aspx

I’ll be downtown all week at various parties and events. If you’re around and would like to meet up, feel free to follow Colorado Snow on twitter or send an email to devin@cosnow.com.

Here we are half-way through January 2010 and most of Colorado’s most popular resorts are at 20-30″ bases. Most resorts don’t have enough snow to open up expert (non-man-made snow) terrain such as the Montezuma Bowl at Arapahoe Basin. So, it’s with even one or two inches that we get excited. It’s not much to get excited for, but it’s something. Given the state of things, every little bit helps. Joel Gratz has more information on the wave of storms moving through Colorado this week. Expect some good snow by this weekend!

Congratulations to Lindsey Vonn, alpine ski racer, U.S. Ski Team member, and Vail celebrity. The Colorado Sports Hall of Fame named her the 2009 Athlete of the Year. This year she re-claimed the overall World Cup champion title and became the first American woman to win the world Super-G title. You can follow Lindsey on her blog at lindseyvonn.com, and is active on twitter at @lindseyvonn.

If you hadn’t heard, Arapahoe Basin is losing it’s “hard core” exterior and becoming “resortized” by Vail Resorts. With the parking upgrades and Montezuma Bowl lift, it’s hard to argue the resort isn’t trying to stay competitive with the major resorts. So, this summer A-Basin will be adding a high-speed quad lift to replace Exhibition at the bottom of the mountain. Suggestions for the name of the lift are being accepted at alanh@a-basin.net with the winner reciving a 2010-11 Arapahoe Basin Season Pass or $300 gift certificate to Arapahoe Sports. (via DenverPost)

It’s going to be a busy weekend January 28 – January 31, not only with the SIA Snow Show be in Denver, but the Winter X Games will be in Aspen. Winter X Games 14 will be broadcast on ESPN and online coverage can be found on their Snowboarding blog and Freeskiing blog.

If you’re a Vail Resorts season pass holder (Summit Pass, Colorado Pass, Epic Pass), keep in mind you have 6 “Ski With A Friend” passes to use this season. This entitles you to discounted lift tickets at the window. We recently visited Beaver Creek where a $97 adult ticket became $65 with the discount. For pricing details (as it varies during the season) visit snow.com or call 888-215-3867.

Updated: As Nicole pointed out, ‘buddy passes’ are different than ‘ski with a friend’ passes and prices are posted online. Thanks!
