Monday Night Lights

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL?!!

Catch the game and a brewsky at these joints:

Highside Brewing in Frisco because the tacos are really good
Dillon Dam Brewery because the bison burgers are really good
Ollie’s Pub & Grub in Breckenridge because the wings are really good
Fatty’s Pizzeria in Breck- ironically, because the sandwiches are really good
Eric’s Downstairs in Breck -because you’re saddled with kids and there’s an arcade

Of course, I always think food first, but there are beverages to consider. The game starts at 6:15 pm, mountain time, but get there during happy hour and order a couple of your favorite drinks; (keeps the cost down so you can tip big), then, sip at your leisure.

Thank you for voting for Summit Express!

We’re so grateful to our guests! Thanks for taking the time to vote for us; you are the reason we work so hard to be the safest, most reliable, most economic transportation service from and to Denver International.

We would be remiss if we didn’t give a hearty thanks to our drivers, dispatchers, reservation agents, and all the other “behind the curtain” peeps that make this company run as smoothly as Rocky Mountain weather allows. THANK YOU!

Pancakes and Costumes in Keystone!

October 22, 2019 by Lora B

Pull up a chair at the $5 pancake breakfast every morning this week at Summit House, Keystone Resort- sponsored by your favorite Aunt Jemima! Is there a better way to start the day than hot coffee, hotcakes and warm company? Fortify for a day spent shredding at Keystone or A Basin. Did you know there’s a shuttle that runs a loop from both mountains? Now you do! Take advantage of their close proximity and shred on both.

Don your best Halloween costumes for prizes on Saturday, October 26th, at 2 pm at Summit House. Behold, the cutest Vulcan in the Universe- my neice! Prizes will be awarded for best individual costume (obviously my neice 😉 and for best group costume. Join in the fun!

Be safe, live long and prosper.

Exciting Addition to Copper Mountain!

The Woodward Mountain Park ; what exactly is it?

A Progression based approach. This set up is ideal for teaching, practicing and growing into a confident rider.
From zones for beginners who just want to stand up and feel it out, to vast areas for seasoned vets who just wanna shred.
Equipment that is geared for each skill level. Example: the Start Park is for the newest skiers and boarders; designed to reduce speed and hone balance. The SuperPipe is for those who are performing at the highest levels.
Whatever your skill there’s a venue for you. Once you’ve mastered it move onto the next and keep aiming higher!

Have fun and be excellent to each other!

Fresh Eats!

China Szechuan in Frisco- Quality meat sets them apart from their competitors. For my taste Chinese food doesn’t get SPICY, so I order extra spicy because it kicks up the flavor a few notches. I suggest the tangerine chicken with crab cream cheese rangoons and pot stickers.

Giam Pietro’s in Breckenridge- A standout flavor item: the oil with tomatoes they serve with the bread- it’s phenomenal! The arancini (fried risotto and mozzarella balls) is a savory treat. Try it with a white wine, or a cider. If you have a big appetite then order a calzone. The crust is crispy and light and you can choose your stuffing. Of course, you can’t go wrong with their pizza.

Dillon Dam Brewery– When you want a really good burger order a bison burger medium rare. if you’re a mustard connoisseur try the Flying Dutchman; smoked Gouda cheese, apple slaw and a side of beer mustard. The Rodeo (BBQ sauce, smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and braised onions) is one of my classic favorites.
