Top Active Leisure Sport in Colorado

I think you should take advantage of the free shuttle service around town. It makes getting to different slopes so much easier, and I didn't realize it was available until halfway through my trip. Don't miss it!

I suggest you rent your gear in advance online. You can save quite a bit of cash this way, plus you won't waste time standing in long lines at the rental shops. It was a game-changer for us.

Check the weather before you go! We got caught in a snowstorm that came out of nowhere one day, and it messed up our plans. I think planning around the weather forecast would make for way better skiing days!

I highly recommend hitting the trail early, like around 7 AM. You'll beat the crowds and get those gorgeous morning views without too much noise. Plus, it's a lot cooler then!

Bring some snacks and plenty of water. I ran out of water on the way back which made it a bit rough for me. You'll appreciate the energy boost from a quick snack trust me.

You gotta try night skiing! It's an awesome experience, especially if you go around 5 PM, but be prepared for colder temps up there, so dress warm!

My advice is to keep an eye on the weather. It can change quickly! I wore the wrong gear one day and it really put a damper on my fun.

I recommend hitting the slopes by 8:30 AM to avoid the crowds. The first run of the day is always the best and the lines are so much shorter!
