- Colorado Skiing Snowboarding - Winter Park - Ikon Pass Resort!Needs location
With the Ikon Pass offering so many different mountains and the snow already being fantastic this year in Colorado, we are heading to Winter Park! We had fun the last time we went, and I have a good feeling this time will be the same!
For the uninitiated, Winter Park consists of three interconnected mountain peaks — Winter Park, Mary Jane, and Vasquez Ridge. There is something for every type of rider! And being only 90 minutes from Denver airport, you can get there in no time!
We are staying at the Lion's Gate Lodge - nestled 10 minutes from the resort and a short walk to downtown Winter Park (where the dinner restaurants and nightlife is).
We have three units, and each unit has three bedrooms. Each unit can sleep 8 people but we will keep that at 6 people per unit so no one is in the living room. We will save the living room in case someone snores, lol. So, we have a total of 18 spots.
We have the Lodge from Friday 12/6 until the morning of Friday 12/13. You can stay any portion of that week. The cost is $250 for Friday to Monday and if you stay over, $350 no matter which dates you stay beyond Monday. If you have extra time and can stay a bit later, definitely try to visit Copper Mountain, A-Basin and/or Eldora Mountain, which are also part of Ikon Pass. (There are also a bunch of Epic Pass mountains about 1.5 hours away.)
The funds we put together covers lodging and some snacks/drinks to share. For meals you can dine out or pick up stuff to cook.
Please budget for flight to Denver, shuttle to the lodge, food, and miscellaneous stuff (T-shirt, anyone?). The free shuttles in town are really easy to use (10 minutes to get to the mountain) and we are actually staying in town, near restaurants and all! :)
Getting there: Winter Park is about 90 minutes from Denver International Airport (DIA). Just about everyone flies there. From the airport you can take one of the many shuttles, rent a car or even an Amtrak. Winter Park has info HERE if you need clarification.
