Colorado Snow
We decided to spend the morning at the house (reading, making fried egg sandwiches, drinking hot chocolate) and just let the snow keep falling at Breckenridge. The big storm expected did not come overnight and we didn’t start seeing snow come until 5 AM. Once lunchtime came around the snow had stopped there was plenty […]
The snow continued to come down Tuesday morning in Breckenridge, they reported 12 inches of snow, 6 of which fell overnight after the resort closed. We didn’t get on the mountain until 10:30 but there was still plenty of fun, soft runs to be had. The lines were a bit longer at the Colorado and […]
What a great start to the season! The powder yesterday at Breckenridge was better than a lot of snow we saw all last year… and there’s only more to come this week! We had the typical first day of the season “Vail Resorts pass delays”. If its your first day up, plan for a little […]
The big storm we’ve all be waiting for finally dropped yesterday and overnight leaving most resorts with 6-inches or more (really, Aspen, 15-inches? Wow!). Thanks to the various social media accounts at Breckenridge, Keystone, Beaver Creek, Crested Butte, Vail, Copper Mountain, Aspen/Snowmass, and Vail. Go find and follow the resorts and mountains yourself from our […]

Here’s a quick round-up of some photos around Colorado found via resort websites, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram […]
This Sunday was the end of the regular season for most of the remaining resorts in Colorado. Breckenridge’s last day, except for it’s final two weekends, was yesterday and we were gifted 8-inches of fresh new snow. We haven’t seen this much snow at once in months. The new snow was great and we found […]
Spending Easter morning at Breckenridge was a great spring activity. We started by waking up at 5:30 AM to head over to Ten Mile Station and attend the Sunrise Service. The near-full moon lit the chair ride up Peak 9. By 6:30 the sun crested over the continental divide and it seemed like we had […]
It’s spring skiing in the Rockies and that means no traffic, no crowds and wonderful weather. We arrived at Breck around 9:30 and the airport lot had no more than two dozen cars. Once we hit Peak 7 we noticed something I haven’t seen in months: no lift line. We were able to get in […]
