Outlets at Silverthorne

Saturday November 3, 2018
9:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Buy tickets online!  Note: When you click TICKETS a list of local charities pops up.  Choose the charity you’d like to give to; each is a gift of $25.00.

Here’s what to expect…

  • You’ll get a PDF Ticket from your online purchase, bring tickets to registration from 9 am to noon in the Red village.
  • When you register at the Outlets you’ll get a wristband and a program with discounts.
  • There will be drinks and food.  Mimosas, Bloody Mary’s and breakfast, a catered lunch, dessert bars and a wine tasting in select stores!

The 3 Outlet villages are within walking distance; but, if you’d rather ride we are happy to pick you up!  We’ll be doing loops (with 2 stops) at each village so you can heft your bags on board and rest up for the next shopping spree.  Click here for a map of the Outlets’ locations.

I suggest making a list; this is going to be the ideal time to shop for Christmas, birthdays and anniversaries.  One store manager told me the deals during the Extravaganza are often better than Black Friday!  Check out all the shops at the Silverthorne Outlets ahead of time to get ideas and make a game plan.

The People Have Spoken

Summit Express Best of Summit 2018It’s with great pride that we can announce Summit Express was named 2018 Best Shuttle Service by the Summit Daily.

We know there is choice in transportation. We want to thank all our loyal customers, business partners and fans for this great honor. Thank you for voting for us. Thank you for riding with us.  And thank you for supporting our mission:

Summit Express was born eight years ago when owners Jackie and Bob Roppel moved to Summit County with the goal to create a new shuttle service dedicated to providing exceptional customer experience. There have been many bumps along their journey, but they did it by staying loyal to their mission.

  • At Summit Express we never take our customers for granted.  We create long term relationships with our guests and our community.
  • We value people: employees, guests, our partners and every resident of Summit. We are active in the Chamber of Commerce.

The Best Skiing and Snowboarding in Summit County

Home » Archives for October 2018

October 21, 2018 by Kevin W

Hey guys.  Today I will be trying to give you an idea on the… Best Skiing in Summit

Locals Tips:

For me this is an easy pick.  Most of you would picture the iconic Breckenridge Resort as one of the best but these days the fact that most people would guess that is the exact reason why it’s not #1.  The best skiing is Copper Mountain.  The in bounds terrain is unbeatable at around 2,456 sq foot, which offers long groomers, endless tree runs, and one of the best parks in the country.

Pro tip: Copper is usually WAY less crowded then the popular resorts offered on Vail’s Epic Passes.

This year they also introduce two new lifts, one using the bubble chairs (allowing you to stay even warmer) and the other lift featuring both gondolas and open chairs.  One of the best parts of copper is the ease of access throughout the whole mountain. The other stand out for me is the simple fact that you can tell the employees like working there.  It really creates a great atmosphere.

Great night life for anyone who is staying within the resort… no driving needed either!

The town at the bottom is also perfectly placed for all your drink and food needs 🙂

Copper was also just added to the new Ikon Pass, offering a huge selection of mountains.  If you like to travel this pass is just the pass for you!

snowboarderCopper is also home to Woodward.  After a day on the slopes hit the Woodward barn for some indoor skateboarding or try out some new tricks in the foam pit!

They are a partner with Summit Express so save some money getting to and from the mountain.  Give us (970-668-6000) or Copper a call. Either can help you arrange your transportation.

Copper also offers outdoor snowboarding through the summer.  Whether it’s through the camp sessions or through the public park you can always get your snow fix at Copper.

Plenty of rentals for all abilities!

Locals Tip: Mario’s World. . .you won’t find it on your trail map but ask a local and try and ride this section of the mountain off the American Flyer lift.  Oh and check out Eagle BBQ too. . .very cool up and coming restaurant at the bottom of the mountain.

Ten Mile Music Hall is Opening this Month

Home » Archives for October 2018

October 16, 2018 by Lora B

And this year’s winner for COUPLE of the YEAR…

Live MUSIC and BBQ!

Ten Mile Music Hall, on the corner of Frisco’s Main street and Summit Blvd, has it’s soft opening at the end of the month.  There will be year round concerts, and it will be a hot venue for weddings and special events.  Frisco is a stunning back drop anytime of year (so instagramable!) and the hall has all the Rocky Mountain rustic charm you’d want for wedding photos and atmosphere.

Kicking off Ten Mile Music Hall’s opening, unofficially, is Hymn for Her, a country blues duo with “kick you in the pants- ask you to dance” attitude.  They play Friday 10/26 at 7:30 pm.  Purchase your tickets from 10milemusic.com, Cool Inside or Lyte.  See the current line up here.

The music hall has a large rooftop deck with awesome views of Tenmile Mountain Range.  Moe’s Orginal BBQ is main course on deck- open daily for lunch, dinner and happy hour (warm months).  Food is not served at concerts so fill up beforehand or hoof it to an eatery afterward.  Ollie’s Pub & Grub, Peppino’s Pizza and Kemosabe Sushi are right next door.

The Hall’s grand opening is Tuesday and Wednesday October 30th-31st.  Americana band, Leftover Salmon, is center stage for this celebration.  In case you don’t know, they’re kind of a big deal!  Leftover Salmon has been on the road for almost 30 years; their sound… bluegrass, folk rock, Cajun, country blues, jazz, and soul- a crafted brew of American roots.  Be there or be square!

Winter Is Here

Home » Archives for October 2018

October 13, 2018 by Kevin W

It may only be early October but WINTER IS HERE again in Summit County!  Start booking your flights and getting your winter gear organized.  The snow is here on the peaks and in higher elevations and it is here to stay.  I got my first few turns in for the season a few days ago and it was glorious. . . to say the least.

SNOW!!!! 10-9-2018

With -A Basin opening next weekend and snow already on the ground it is safe to say that winter is here to stay.  After last years dismal winter and a very dry summer we are all ready for a good snow year.  I’m sure all our future visitors are also ready for a good snow year.

SO take advantage of our Pre Season Sale and get some turns in before the masses start flocking toward the mountains.  Our drivers are extremely friendly and can usually point you towards the right direction for some local fun.  Don’t be afraid to get the inside scoop from us!

Local Tip: Use a shuttle service to get here.  Renting a car in the mountains is not the glorified option that it may be at your typical beach get away.  Driving from Denver to Summit is not an easy task in the winter and it only gets tougher once you are here.  Plus, once you get up to Summit County there is free transportation ALL over the county.  Check the Summit Stage out for all the details and routes. 

Here is a list of our nearby resorts and tentative opening dates:

  • A Basin- 10/20*
  • Breckenridge- 11/10
  • Copper- 11/16
  • Keystone- 11/10
  • Loveland- 10/20*
  • Vail- 11/16

*opening this week

Local Tip: The snow is out there.  If you can’t wait for the lifts then head up to Loveland Pass and enjoy some free riding at no cost.  Just park at the top lot and walk toward either side of the road.  Both sides offer riding down to Highway 6.  Pick a line that gets you to the road.  From here it’s easy.  Stick your thumb out and get a free ride back up to the top.  This is a known back country area so people passing by are more inclined to stop for good karma.  WHAT YOU’LL NEED – Bring a rock board or skis (gear you don’t like) for the pre season riding and avalanche gear for your mid season riding.  Avi gear is strongly recommended any time though!

Kovu and I enjoying the fresh snow

Enjoy the fresh snow everyone! If you see us out there be sure to say hello 🙂  PS 9 more inches in the forecast tonight

Our driver, Jeff, was friendly and accommodating. His contributions to our conversations made the ride fun. He tolerated 7 chatty women exceptionally well!

Using the private shuttle to get to the airport was perfect! It was so much easier than using rental cars! Summit Express will be our airport travel mode from now on!

From now on, these guys are my new shuttle service when travel around Colorado. We had a mishap with our luggage while on our way to Breckenridge.  When we realized it, United Airlines called me and explained to me that I had to go back to the airport. Scott, from Summit immediately asked me if he could speak to the rep.

Long story short, Scott tried to explain to the rep that they can go back to the airport and pick up our luggage…they’ve done it before for customers in the past.  Unfortunately, United couldn’t give us a straight answer, so my friend and I had to make the 2 hour drive back to Denver.

Either way, Summit and Scott were amazing. They gave us a great rate to go back to the airport and back to Breckenridge.

Go with Summit if you plan to make trips around Colorado. I highly recommend them.

Absolutely loved working with Summit Express! Could not have been better. We were shuttled from DIA to Breckenridge various times over two months, using 28 shuttles in total. Not once did Summit Express make a mistake, every transfer was perfect. Always on time!

We loved their friendly customer service. They were flexible when we had to change our schedule multiple times at the last minute, courteous to our needs, and they really cared about making us content with what we were buying. They are all about their customers and I could not think of a better company to use.

The exceptional personal service provided by everyone in your company from the online chat, phone calls with customer service agent, drivers and representative at the airport, arriving for pick up at the EXACT time, sending text message reminders… Your company excels at everything a customer wants and needs. The bottom line is that you provide a personal experience, in the future we will only use your company.
