The Best Skiing and Snowboarding in Summit County

Home » Colorado Ski Resort News » Copper Mountain » The Best Skiing and Snowboarding in Summit County

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!

Copper 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.

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.

Fast, comfortable and the driver was wonderful. I left my wallet in the van by accident and he brought it to my condo immediately without me even calling.

I want to thank you for your excellent services yesterday in particularly lousy weather. Your team called me on Saturday to alert me to impending weather concerns and the fact that I might have troubles making my flight home Sunday. The dispatcher put me on an earlier than planned shuttle and got me to the airport on time. The trip from FTC to DIA took four hours and your driver Dave did a nice job. I will use your service again and I will recommended it to others. The bottled water was appreciated as well.
