Beaver Creek Ski & Snowboard Lessons

I think it's worth checking out the group lesson options. I went solo and ended up making friends while learning, which made the experience even better. Don't be shy!

My advice is to get your gear rental done the night before. It saved me major hassle the next morning when I just wanted to hit the slopes instead of waiting in line.
Snowmass Buttermilk

I suggest checking out the local food trucks instead of the sit-down restaurants, as you'll save money and get to try some tasty bites on the go. The variety is awesome!

I recommend getting to the slopes by 8:30 AM to snag a good parking spot and avoid the crowds. The morning light is also amazing for photos!

My advice is to rent your ski gear from shops in Snowmass Village instead of on the mountain. It's cheaper and less stressful, plus you can take your time trying on stuff.

I think taking a morning lesson is a great idea, especially for beginners. The instructors are super helpful and will make you feel more confident, trust me, it's worth it.
Ridden

I think grabbing some snacks and drinks at the grocery store before you go up to the mountain really saves money. Food at the resort can be pricey, and you might wanna have a quick bite on the slopes.
Snowmass Sports

I suggest trying out the lesser-known trails to avoid crowds. I found some hidden gems that were just stunning and way less busy than the main runs!
Ski Haus

I'd suggest bringing your own gear if you can; the rentals can add up! However, if you do rent, definitely book ahead to save time and money on your trip.
My advice is to avoid weekend mornings if possible. I skied on a Saturday at 9 AM and it was a mad house! Go on a weekday or around lunch for way less crowds.

I think getting an afternoon lift ticket can be a total steal. I went at 1 PM and enjoyed the slopes almost free of waiting, plus the views were just stunning!
Steamboat Ski & Bike Kare

I recommend getting a full equipment package rental; it’s often cheaper than renting items separately and saves loads of time. Plus you get everything you need in one go.

I suggest hitting the slopes early, like around 8 AM. The crowds are way lighter, which means shorter lines and more time on the snow.
Fleischer Sport
My advice is to hit the slopes early, around 8 AM. You'll have way fewer crowds and can enjoy those fresh tracks before everyone else arrives.
Steamboat Mountain School

My advice is to rent gear ahead of time online. I saved some cash compared to on-site rentals and they had better options.

I found that arriving right when the lift opens at 8:30 AM saved me loads of time in line. You'll get fresh powder before it gets crowded!

I think is worth exploring the lesser-known trails for a chill ride. I stumbled onto some amazing runs that weren't on the map and had the best time!
Ski Butlers Ski Rental Delivery

I recommend booking your gear a few days in advance online to save some time when you get there. The lines can get long if you just walk in, and trust me, you don’t want to waste precious skiing time!

My advice is to ask about the demo equipment options. I ended up trying a board I loved, and it was awesome to use high-quality gear. Plus, you can usually apply the rental cost toward a purchase later!
Door 2 Door Ski & Snowboard Rental Delivery

My advice is to ask about any bundled deals if you're renting for multiple days. I found out they had discounts the longer you rent, which I didn't know about until the last minute.
