Colorado Skiing
With an elevation of more than 40,000 feet, 30,000 acres of terrain, 13 world-class resorts, and an accustomed 300 days of bright sunshine (plus over 4,000 inches of snowfall every year), Colorado’s tag line as the Rocky Mountain State truly encompasses its pristine beauty. Its impressive alpine micro-capital equipped with swank après ski features, and haute cooking with series of gentle and stern pistes and runs, made Colorado one of the finest destinations around the world for snow activities.
When it comes to Skiing, there is no place like Colorado, which is considered as winter wonderland for both ski and snowboard enthusiasts. Being famous for its breath-taking snow landscape, Colorado provides a great mountain experience for practically everyone.
In fact, when it comes to Skiing with the family, Colorado provides utmost treatment, offering special family discounts such as the Stay Free and Kids Ski package. Likewise, most snow areas offer family ski zones and slow Skiing zones, which are especially structured slopes on the mountain for slow-paced family Skiing. For the skiers’ safety, these areas are away from high-traffic zones at heavy trail intersections, as well as lift-loading spots. Safety gear (helmet being the most recommended) is also at hand in all of Colorado’s resorts.
When looking for the perfect resort, it would be best to do a thorough research on what the resort could offer (knowing what it could not is also advisable). Popular Skiing destinations include Breckenridge, Aspen, Vail, Crested Butte, and Steamboat.

Considered as a paradise for ski lovers, Vail offers the old European-themed Skiing experience. With over 5,000 acres of land, Vail is referred to as North America’s Premier Resort Community.
