Ski Season 2014/2015

[knight1fox3]

were going to WP Sunday, hope most of the stinking tourists are gone

You're not watching any playoff football?! <smh>

Broncos in the playoffs = no traffic on I-70....

I just want to watch the panthers lose tonight......

we hit 20 days this season!

I think I am done for this year though, bring on the hiking weather!

Put the deposit down on next years pass yesterday , added in the 3 days at Crested Butte and 6 days at steamboat option this time and hope we get to use them..

Is there cheap lodging anywhere near Crested Butte around the holidays? lol / sad...

For cheap lodging around Crested Butte around the holidays:

In all honesty though, look for lodging in Gunnison. It is about 30 minutes from Mount Crested Butte. There is even a free bus from Gunnison to the ski area. Steamboat is awesome...I really like that town. The ski area is large, and lots of fun.

They have a lift to that big pointy run right?

They run weekend specials at the Grand Lodge which is slopeside in denver daily deals and groupon. we usually stayed in Gunnison which is a neat little town

but ski season cant be over, did you forget about this? http://www.coppercolorado.com/winter/events_and_activities/calendar/1409926431

I would love to attend that, however our next couple of weekends are full of kid activities.

The snow was actually pretty good on Sunday but it's probably going to be pretty slushy from here on out

"Intoxication and nudity are absolutely prohibited. Contestants that do not abide will immediately be disqualified and asked to leave the resort."

Sounds like a real prude-fest.

Sounds like a real prude-fest.

I want to hear more about the situation that caused that rule to be implemented.

Just imagine hundreds of ski bums letting out there end of the season frustrations

Spring time skiing may not always have the best snow but it creates some of the most fun environments I've been around.

Bikini-clad, well thought out tattooed snow bunnies skiing is always a plus in my book

Matt- here is a pic from Coppers FB page... We didn't make it up there Saturday but went last year and it was a riot.....

[matt267 PE]
