Colorado Ski Resort

Next year over spring break i am planning a ski trip to Colorado. I don't like a crowded resort with long lines, but like long runs that are somewhat hard. I don't like moguls and like a little terrain park. Would Vail and Beaver creek be a good choice. Are there any other goods ones. If there are tell me what the resort is good for

Y are they better

Ummm, Breckenridge sees more skier visits than any resort in North America.  Definitely the most crowded.

A-Basin is rad, but small. 

Vail has a few spots that get crowded, but it's huge and spread out.  You can definitely get away from the crowds.  On a big powder day, hitting up Blue Sky in the morning is a good call, then move back to the front face.  The front side of that resort is practically ignored and the trees hold powder all day long there.  Beaver Creek is great, but it's not a really great spring destination.

Copper is another good spring riding spot.  Lot's of slopes that good sun and long runs.  Lifts do get crowded there too.

Loveland will be the least crowded and probably the cheapest.  On the busiest ski day of the year this season, I was riding up to the lifts 90% of the time.  When the crowds were bad, I had to wait four chairs to get on...

Spring break=the busiest month of the season.  After April 1st, the crowds go way down, unless it absolutely pukes...

I was in breck for spring break this year and it was very crowded except for Peak 10. I would recommend steamboat it usually not crowded at all and has some great runs at the top of the mountain where the base is where all the newbies will be.

abasin and keystone are my two favorites in colorado so far! 

This forum looks like only an idiot!

^^^I know English is not your first language, but don't get agitated by other members.  They are just pointing out the obvious when you bring up an old old old old thread.  You posted for the points.

If somebody told you that points were discontinued would you still be posting in that thread?

Thanks this info is helpful. I'm trying to plan a spring break ski trip but would like to avoid huge crowds as I'm still a newbie boarder. I was looking at Copper Mountain, Telluride, Steamboat, and Loveland. Any comments on these places would be helpful.

:)

So does anyone know how telluride is?
