im going to denver this winter and ive never been there before. im a only 15, so please dont recommend any clubs or anything. i love to ski too and cant figure out where the best place to ski is. my aunt told me that snowmass, aspen mountain, and butter milk were the best she skiied at. but i looked online and ive found so many really nice places to ski at. ski cooper, winter park, breckenridge, vail, monarch mountain, copper mountain, and steam boat. i really didnt realize how many of these places there are to ski at. and i really need help deciding cause i cant make up my mind. i want to go to 2 different places to ski while im there, and then a few places just to sightsee, take some tours, and do out door activities. which places are best for skiing and which are best for out door activities. just because i love to be in and around the snow and i could probably spend all day looking at the views. i love nature, especially mountains. and yes, ive asked this question way too many times, but i like to have something to do and researching for my trip is a lot of fun to me. ive seen pictures for all of these places and im they look fantastic! the views, the snow, everything.... i just cant decide what is better. what gets the most snow, has the best skiing, and the best views. if you dont mind, please list what has what? like for example: snowmass-best snow-not best skiing-more outdoor activities... that was just an example, but something like that please
thanx in advance..... btw, my dad said we could go anywhere and the price really isnt an issue when it comes to prices of ski gear rental, lift tickets, etc.What is there to do in denver? places to ski in colorado?
Oh Damn.
Well...
X-Games are at Buttermilk two weeks after your trip, so their might be problems getting a room. I grew up skiing Snowmass, and the other 3 mountains right next to it; Aspen, Aspen Highlands, %26amp; Buttermilk. This area is known for it's adult nightlife.
I lived in Summit County for 3 years and worked for Vail Resorts. Keystone, Arapahoe Basin, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain, Loveland all within 15 miles of each other. Breckenridge has dogsledding, fly-fishing [yes in February]; Keystone has nightskiing and night-tubing, Copper Mountain has the Woodward Training Facility. There's also backcountry skiing off the Continental Divide on Loveland Pass.
Other Areas I've Skied:
Winter Park-Mary Jane It's okay, but no village atmosphere.
Eldora It's okay, but it's a mountain, not a resort.

Denver was a small cow town 150 years ago. Since then it has grown and grown and groan. It has pro sports, Nuggets, Rockies, Broncos, and some pretty good XC skiing part of the year if it snows there. For good skiing you must leave town and go to some of the resorts in Colorado. Vail, A-basin, Copper, Aspen, and many more. Be prepared for pow that is deep and dry some days and just dry others. Later in the year there is some good fishing and hunting in the mountains. Have fun.
