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 entire resort is designed for families and experts alike with easy and intermediate skiing on the front, dedicated lesson areas including “magic carpets”, and plenty of advanced “outback” skiing. The ice skating rink makes for a fun day off the hill.
