Colorado Ski Resorts

I recommend Keystone, then Brek.

Key stone Is the best skiing in my opinion, had the most fun at copper girls etc. Breckinridge was cool but way overpriced and more for the yuppie crowd.

I've been to Copper, Keystone, Loveland, Vail and Breckenridge...

I like Breck best. It's a small town rather than a resort. Independent business owners competing for your dollars.

Put your kids in a ski school and have a blast!

Copper, Keystone, Winter Park, or Breckinridge.

For someone new to this with kids I'd pick Breckenridge, then Keystone. Breckenridge slopes are the easiest and it has the best town atmosphere of the 4. Both are a part of the Summit so you can take shuttles between them if you want variety. Copper is too but it is a more advanced mountain. Winter Park is off by itself and is fine but not as beginner friendly.

If it's your first time skiing, I'd do Breck because it's easier to get around the mountains and the runs are a little easier and there are several sections designated to greens/blues. If you know what you're doing, drive the extra 20 minutes to Vail. It's incredibly diverse and much larger.

I skied Winter Parkmany time as a youngster. Allways had a blast with the family. Have not been in 20 years.

I'm sure you will have a great time. It is first class. Maybe a little shorter lines than some others because it is off by itself.

If going with kids, Keystone. If you are wanting nightlife Breck or Vail. I ride Keystone the most because it is close to Denver, doesn't get too crowded like Breck, and is a big mountain.
