Colorado's Greatest Skiing Destinations

By: Chris Hagdon

If you love to ski, you may have heard about the wonderful ski hills and resorts in Colorado. These resorts draw celebrities and ski experts every ski season. Many Colorado ski resorts are situated in the Rocky Mountains, making for ideal ski conditions each year. If you are planning to visit Colorado for a ski or snowboard trip, you will have lots of options to choose from.

Aspen is one of the most popular ski resorts in Colorado. Once a mining town, Aspen is now one of the hottest destinations in the USA. Aspen has a lot of Snowy hills, challenging and varying terrain. Apart from this, what attracts so many well-to-do people and famous celebrities to the beautiful setting each year is the large number of spas, resorts, and fabulous dining places and the ski hill. The rates are high and an adult pass for the day is available for $74.

Vail is another extremely popular ski resort. Vail is the largest ski resort in America and boasts 193 trails covering 5,289 acres. Constantly ranked number one in a variety of ski magazines, Vail is the place to be. The snow conditions in Vail are top notch, as is the terrain and number of challenging runs. Vail also offers great lessons for skiers and snowboarders. The town of Vail is also a popular destination for skiers, offering great shopping, restaurants, and nightlife.

One of the local favorite ski resorts in Colorado is Copper Mountain Resort. Copper Mountain offers an impressive number of trails, over 120 and 22 lifts to move you around the slopes. Copper Mountains' trail system is award winning and takes advantage of everything this mountain has to offer. Copper Mountain also has the advantage of being slightly less expensive then Aspen or Vail, but still offers trails that are exciting and challenging.

Powderhorn Resort is a slightly smaller mountain with great value for day passes. With 29 runs, it offers beginning and intermediate skiers plenty of challenges. If you'd rather not ski a challenging run, there are several easy runs which provide a relaxing day meandering down the slopes. Not only is the skiing world class, but the Powderhorn Resort accommodations and restaurants are quite enjoyable.

For skiers that look for an opportunity to ski all day and into the night, Keystone resort is the perfect place. Keystone offers the largest and best night skiing area in Colorado, in fact in all of North America! Keystone Resort is composed of three great mountains, which means there are plenty of great terrain and diverse trails, 116 of them in all. Keystone also provides many options besides skiing, including an exciting nightlife, fantastic restaurants, and great specials for those guests of the resort.

Even if you don't have too much of money, you can still enjoy world class skiing and accommodation. Some of these huge resorts are offering great deals to make good the dream of spending the week at one of these places. In Colorado, new resorts are being built, and upgrades are making the old ones more fabulous than before. That is way Colorado is known as the home of best Ski resorts in North America.
