Clients Having Fun In Breckenridge

Monday, January 5th, 2009

Hi Lianne,We’re all (Alice, Dave and myself) having a fantastic time over here in Brekenridge.  First of all thank you to you and Sarah for all of the great advice that you were able to provide for us with the planning of the trip.The skiing has been fantastic, and now there is more new snow forecast.  We all skied together yesterday across 3 of the peaks at Brekenridge, including heading up the Imperial Express which you get off at the elevation of 3,914m above sea level!!  Some amazing runs down from here, as well as heading into the Brekenridge back bowls to ski the steeps and let our edges glide us down the slopes.

Our plan now is to head to A-basin tomorrow on the free bus that is provided from Brekenridge township.  We are going to be joined by a few of the new friends we have made at the Fireside Inn.  It has proved to be a fantastic place with intersting memorabilia of relevance and irrelevnace plastering the walls in the shared areas and themed rooms to stay in.

All in all the Colorado experience has proved to be everything we had hoped that it would be and more.  We are all now looking forward to the fresh snowfall and long powder runs on slopes left empty after new years.

Copper Mountain OPENS Friday this week

Monday, November 10th, 2008

An autumn snow storm made its way across Colorado yesterday, dropping up to 16 inches in some areas. This snowstorm, plus early season snowfall, propels Colorado into its second month of the 2008-09 ski season with two resorts open already: Loveland & Arapahoe Basin and more opening this weekend.     

Copper Mountain will open for the season on Friday with fresh snow from yesterday’s storm.  In the southwestern part of the state, Telluride is reporting 16 inches of fresh snow and nearby Silverton is reporting 17 inches. Both resorts are slated to open in mid-November.

Aspen Highlands received 18 inches, Snowmass received 12 inches, Aspen Mountain 10 inches and Buttermilk 6 inches. Snowmass and Aspen are scheduled to open in the latter part of November and Aspen Highlands and Buttermilk in the early part of December.
