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

Keystone is a great place for family fun in the summer months! Spend some time on the water – sailing, river rafting, or fly fishing. Walk onto a scenic golf course or one of many hiking or biking trails. Do something out of the ordinary- ride horse back, rent jet skis, catch a play in nearby Dillon and Silverthorne.

Definitely hit up the local eateries and enjoy fantastic food and friendly service. My favorite place for wings- Cala Pub & Restaurant. Click here for their menu and to take a look inside. Then treat yourself to a spa day after all that activity!

Summit County Mountain Retreats offers to beat pricing (by 10%) on comparable properties. They offer all the amenities and lots of extras think air mattresses, pack-n-plays, wine and even oxygen! Check out the discounts that are offered here. Their website has an interactive map so you can see where you’ll stay in relation to the gondola, lifts and other attractions. We are happy to partner with them!
