Went to Breckenridge a few years ago with a couple of friends and my sister.
She got tired at the top of the hill in an icy snow storm. We headed down the mountain, and she locked up, skies pointed down. I tried to catch up to her as she approached a fork...with a big steel sign and some trees. I couldn't.....she smashed into some Pakistani looking guy about 50mph. I thought she was dead when I got down there, and saw blood in the snow as we approached and she was face down. Rolled her over and her head was bashed open pretty good around her hairline. The brown guy started mbitching mbout dhis tski mpoles being mbent. Anyway. She got a sled ride and $400 worth of purple super glue. My advice is not to do that. My other advise is to skip Breck and go somewhere else like Copper Mountain or A basin. |

Absolutely take the time on the way over or the way back to hit up Beau Jo's Pizza in Idaho Springs.
You will NOT be sorry! |

If you're good skiers, you and your boys will love A basin.
I like Keystone at night, copper mountain and A basin the best of the places I've been. |

Oh another thought, near Breck there's an outfit that does snowmobile tours on the top of the range along the Continental Divide. I remember shredding the side of a bowl at about 40 mph at nearly 14,000 ft at -20F. Good times. About $200 for a two hour tour.

Visit any newly opened herb shop that you can. Worth the trip.

lol, avoid Breck like the plague. If you want to score some drugs for your kid, it's a great place. If you want a touristy butt plug, go to Breck.

Yeah. If you see some fool skiing completely out of control, get to the side of the run as fast as possible. It's me and I'm sorry. It's just what happens when a guy from Cleveland moves to Colorado.
