Colorado SnowMy name is Devin Reams and I founded this site to provide a useful news and review resource for Colorado skiers and snowboarders (and mountain enthusiasts).
I've been skiing since I was a little kid (we moved out here when I was five years old) and I plan to ski for years beyond that. Although cosnow is not my full-time job it is my full-time winter hobby. I've been an "Epic Local" passholder since 2006 (when it was called a "Colorado Pass" or "Five Mountain Pass"). My favorite resorts are Beaver Creek and Breckenridge.

There’s been no new real “snow” to speak of since early last week. But, @FindOpenSnow says we should expect some today. Eyes to the skies…
In case you missed it last week, the underrated Wolf Creek (often receiving the most snow in Colorado by far) was the first resort to open the Colorado season. This comes ahead of the usual “race to open” by Arapahoe Basin and Loveland in Summit County. Worth noting that last season Wolf Creek wasn’t able […]
Here’s a little detour from our regularly scheduled programming: although we think the best skiing may be here in Colorado, it seems there is a bunch of potential on Saturn’s moon, Enceladus.
