Breckenridge and Keystone Open Early

Home » Local Colorado News » Breckenridge and Keystone Open Early

November 10, 2018 by Kevin W

If you haven’t seen the news on social media or heard the word on the streets, I’ve got you covered.  Keystone and Breckenridge both opened early this season.  That is big news for Summit County.  This has been the first time in a LONG time that any of the Vail Resorts actually opened earlier then the expected date.  11/7/18 was the lucky date and boy was it a treat for all the people living up here!  I think it was the first opening day where I actually made it in time for spot in the main lot at keystone. . .even though I arrived after 10 am.  But it gets even better.  Free coffee and homemade granola bars awaited me as I waltzed onto the gondola without a care in the world.  Opening day?! That is seriously unheard of!!  I certainly enjoyed the change of pace 🙂

Thinking about what i’m going to blog about while enjoying Keystone’s opening day:)

The good news with the early opening is both mountains opened with more terrain then usual so even the busy weekends are filled with great skiing and manageable lift lines.  What does that mean for the winter?  Well, for one we are off to a great start compared to last year.  That makes for great conditions (November-April) for all of our guests coming for the early and late seasons.  If you were waiting to see how the winter was looking before booking your trip. . I think it’s safe to say its going to be a good one! BOOK IT

Make sure to check out all of Sky Runs accommodations if you need a place to stay while you are here.  They have amazing properties and just so happen to be one of our partners!

Scared of driving in the snow but still want to make it to the mountains for a get away?  Leave the driving to us.  Give us a call at 970-668-6000 and we’d be more than happy to help plan your trip. . and don’t be shy! Ask questions about the area.  We have a very knowledgeable staff with tons of local info and would love to point you in the right direction.

If you missed out on Breckenridge’s or Keystone’s opening day have no fear.  Beaver Creek, Vail, and Copper are all still set to open soon.  Go out and get yourself some early season turns and join us for some fun in the mountains.  ENJOY

The communication was top notch, which included a reminder text the day before, a phone call from the driver, and this follow up thank you email. In addition, any time I called the office everyone was very courteous & friendly. I’ll definitely be recommending your company to others & I will use it again as well. Thanks so much for the top rate service!

Our flight arrived a little early. A quick phone call Summit Express was able to change our reservation to put us on the next pickup, instead of waiting another two hours in the airport. We were on our way to our final destination in minutes!

Very accommodating. Thanks.

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.

Frank is a great driver, very friendly and chatty and made the end of our trip a happy time rather than a sad ride to the airport and back to reality.
