Breckenridge Ski Resort
I recommend hitting the slopes early, like around 8 AM. The lines are way shorter, and you can enjoy fresh powder before it gets tracked out. Trust me, it's totally worth it!
If you're planning to ski the terrain park, take it slow the first day. I tried going in too fast and ended up with a rough fall. It's a blasts, but just warm up on easier runs first!
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!
Vail Ski Resort
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!
Emerald Lake Trail
Take your time and enjoy the scenery! I rushed my hike and missed some beautiful spots. Just relax, snap some pics, and soak it all in. It’s not a race!
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.
Denver Skatepark
Don’t forget sunscreen! Even if it’s a bit cloudy I ended up getting sunburnt just from hanging out. A hat would be a great idea too!
Keystone Resort
If you're not super experienced, I suggest booking a lesson on the first day. You'll learn faster and enjoy the slopes way more, instead of wasting time figuring things out on your own. 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!
Aspen Snowmass Ski Resort
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!
Denver Skate Park
Make sure to bring some snacks and water. The park doesn't have many food options nearby, and trust me, you don't wanna spend extra cash for a soda
Steamboat Ski Resort
Coorse Field
I think sitting in the outfield seats is the way to go. You get a great view of the game and a chance to catch a foul ball! It was a blast when I almost got one, haha.
Beaver Creek Snow Resort
Bring your own snacks and water. The lodge prices can be steep, and having some munchies on hand saved me a good chunk of change.
Consider taking a lesson, even if you're not a beginner. The instructors are top-notch, and it really enhanced my skills and confidence on the slopes.
