Does anyone have any experience with Copper mountain, Colorado skiing?

Hi there! Assuming by the generality of your question, you're just asking about a vacationing experience.



I work there along with my brother, and roommate. They are both snowboard instructors, and I am a Lift Operator. It's a great little resort! Perfect for a family to visit, since it is not Vail associated, it is cheaper for a vacation. There's a plethora of places to stay, although, there is no where to exchange a time share (that I am aware of).



The mountain itself is divided naturally into the 3 levels of terrain. To the far east is the greens/ski school area, this area is usually closed til late December due to the lack of snow. It houses the best beginner lift, in Kokomo. In Center Village, the two featured lifts shine. The American Flyer, and the American Eagle. The American Eagle will take you to the most points on the mountain, while the Flyer will take you higher, eventually leading up to the back double black diamond bowls. (You take another lift to get to the bowls).

And off to the east is the Super Bee lift, which is home to the black diamonds of the resort.



The center village is a typical ski resort village, housing many shops and restaurants. There is also a tubing hill (which is awesome in my opinion) but it does not open usually until Christmas time because of the snow.



My recommendations are these:

If you can go to Copper, GO! It is the "skier's favorite" mountain for a reason. I even recommend working there. Me and my brother went out there to work for one season, and ended up buying a house and staying! It's a lot of fun. Feel free to email me if you have any more questions! :)Does anyone have any experience with Copper mountain, Colorado skiing?
Hi, I don't know if you'll see this but I was wondering if you knew the cheapest place to get lift tickets at Copper Mountain?
