My family is going around these resorts next week. We have a few days to get some skiing in for a nice break from our daily lives. By no means are we expert skiers but we have been to a few eastern resorts and had some fun mostly on the blues, some greens and blacks. We are looking for some easy riding slopes with some good scenery. Could you give a synopsis of each of these resorts and what you would recommend for my family and I?Keystone, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain and A Basin..?
I've only skied A-Basin (but a bunch of times.) It rocks. Stay out of the chutes and Pali can be hairy for the non-experts, but most of the trails below treeline and almost all of the cornice is skiable by intermediate skiers. You might be challenged a bit, but what's the fun in skiing something easy? I haven't yet been to the new area. It's been a while since I was last there.
Get used to the elevation before you head there. Otherwise your day may be wasted with altitude sickness.
