Damn, I wish I had known, I would have tried to talk you into going to Keystone.  Our friends were at Copper on 3/29 (and then Keystone on 3/31 and Vail on 4/2 - they wanted to try several resorts).

We had a great time at Keystone, my kids really liked hitting the small side trails through the trees off the main runs.  Not knowing the terrain/layout I had some issues on a few deeper tree runs but managed to get through.  My family really had a good time in the baby park - Freda's Incubator.

$65 w/ tax using a coupon code at LQ silverthorne.

@Superorb  - maybe 4-5" nothing special.  Just cold and blowing.

@CT - I was just looking for a quick few park runs.  Did that for a couple hours and went home.  I think the season my be done for me.  Give my body a few weeks to rest before starting wakeboarding and mtn biking for the summer.

Weird. When I was looking for Saturday nights it was always $99 for the LQ and $89 for the Days Inn.

Sounds like he is spending Monday night in Denver and Tuesday night in Silverthorne.

A quick search on kayak.com shows several hotels (none of which has a good rating) for $52 - $70 in the area, although I have never stayed at any of these joints.  I guess as long as the room is clean nothing else matters.

that's pretty much how i feel

i usually travel with a bigger group during the season and we always get a house/condo for dirt cheap after you split the costs

this time it's only me and my brother, give me a bed and a working shower ;)

$50 a night plus tax:

I am telling you, for the extra $6 stay at La Quinta (just do a google search for coupons).  It's a nicer hotel and you have Old Chicago on the main level.  I have never seen a Luxury Inn that was anything close to Luxury.  This one included and I have stayed in most hotels in Summit...but I am also picky when it comes to hotels.  I stay in them more than I would like.

Looks like several resorts are extending their season.

Breck, Copper and Vail are all reopening for the weekend and Aspen Highlands will reopen for the last weekend in April after their initial close this weekend.

Hope everyone gets a chance!

Limited terrain, big crowds and tracked snow is better than not riding at all.

So true.  While I'm happy to see the warm sun more, I'm sad to summerize my board for the season.  I miss riding the little guys already!  They shall be waxed and stored for some sad months.

Haha I agree as well! I don't mind sitting in traffic, crowds, and limited terrain at all. I just spend my time lapping the park all day chill'n. Worth it to me!
