Ever heard Ryan describe how to approach the bar for a heavy lift? It's a description all of its own and so valuable in setting the stage for a successful lift.

Season Passes

Ok folks it’s that time of year again!  Passes are on sale now.  So, who’s getting a pass and to where?  Don’t forget to post how you play on the mountain too (ski, board, xc, skate)!  Post to comments.

    We’re giving the Copper/Winter Park pass a shot this season (did the Colorado Pass last season). We thought we’d take advantage of the 2-for-1 Well Fargo Super Pass promotion for university staff, faculty and students. So, I’m going in with another friend at CU for the 2-for 1 deal, and Brian’s getting the same pass (no fun if we can’t shred together).

    snowboarding all the way!

    Rocky Mtn SuperPass+ (Winter Park/Copper/Steamboat). Ski fast, ski bumps, ski powder (if we get some this year), ski bumps, and a little AT skiing in the Never Summer Range and Anthracite Range. Gotta love winter.

    I’ll be snowboarding through the trees with my Colorado Pass! I’ll definitely use all 10 Vail days, and probably get to Breck, A-Basin and Keystone a few times each.

    I’m getting the Epic Pass again – it’s epic! Unlimited skiing at Vail/Beaver Creek/A Basin/Breck/Keystone… I’ll also probably get the 5-day Aspen/Snowmass pass – can’t have too many passes! I will mostly be alpine skiing, though also trying to improve on teles (and 400 m of walking lunges yesterday was a great start for tele season :).

    Got the Copper/Winter Park/ Steamboat pass, but now I’m wondering if I should grab a 7 day Epic pass or a “buddy pass” so that I can get some days in at Vail/Beaver Creek too. Gonna shred the nar. (not really… I love the trees!)

  6. Allison

    I will be backcountry tele skiing in search of untracked powder, and probably doing lots of laps at ABasin and Loveland. Can’t wait!

    No pass — i’ll be paying cash for whatever day(s) I go. It will be certainly less than 5 but hopefully more than 0. Although we may get Elden in a few days at Eldora… he’s on the brink of being old enough for some ski fun.

  8. Mike

    I will be joining Allison in the backcountry hiking for my turns this year. Definitely be up at Berthoud, Loveland, and the BEACH!

    While in Devil’s Thumb Ranch this summer, I broke down and purchased a skate ski package!!! I hope to get back Devils Thumb this winter and hit Eldora as well.

    Anyone up for night skate skiing?

    Last year a few friends and I did some night skate skiing in Eldora with headlamps … it was a blast. I hope to do a few session this year as well.

    we poached the night skate skiing… thus the headlamps. The darkness makes it a bit more adventurous….. but I guess I could pay for it once in a while 🙂

    If I get a pass, it would be to Eldora… not to sound like an Eldora poster child, but I can’t stand driving long distances in bad traffic to ski. It would be fun to make some nordic laps as well. And, I would love to hit the backcountry on my teles (good thing we are hitting the legs so hard at the shop – ouch!).
