A member of Vail Resorts, Keystone is one of the closer resorts to Denver, just off I-70 at the Silverthorne/Dillon exist (about 2 hours drive with traffic from Denver).

The ice skating rink makes for a fun day off the hill.

Keystone (2014-02-26)
I had the pleasure of spending a Wednesday at Keystone and it was a beautiful, warm, lonely (in a good way) day. We had the whole mountain to ourselves. Everywhere from the Outback and Wayback to the patio at Mountain House. It was a beautiful day to be out and not at the office.
Yesterday we set out to ski two mountains in one day. We started the morning going over Swan Lake Road from Breckenridge to Keystone. When we arrived a little after 10 we were able to park in the third row of the free lot at River Run and walk right up to the lift at […]
