Breckenridge Ski Resort

Getting used to the altitude was our biggest surprise. We were lightheaded and thirsty more than we expected. Very tired coming from the East Coast. Other than that, being in the Rocky Mountains was an experience not to be missed. Hopefully repeated soon! We've skied all over the French and Italian Alps and in Tremblant Canada (East) and Whistler British Columbia and this was as memorable not only for the skiing but also for ambience. This isn't as fancy as what I hear many US sites, this was peaceful, charming and comfportable for many different kids of people. Very patient and polite young adults working all over the town, must be the lack of oxygen!!!

I really enjoyed my day of skiing at Breckenridge. The ski area is open from the middle of November to the middle of April, weather permitting, and from 8:30am until 4pm. The base elevation is 9,600 feet and the summit is 12,998 feet. They have a total of 28 lifts and 2208 acres of terrain. They groom about 600 acres daily. The snowmaking ability is for about 516 acres. There are 146 trails, with the longest trail being 3.5 miles. The mountain consists of 15% easiest, 33% more difficult, 20% most difficult, and 32% expert. I hope to visit Breckenridge again soon, when I will have more time to explore the mountain and the town. The town looked really neat and clean, and all the people were very friendly and helpful.

It's usually good snow with a lot of room to move around the slope. Kids will love the ski school. Parents, you'll love the idea that there is also a preschool and daycare right at the main base area.

4 Pipes, 4 Parks, and 4 Peaks. A visit to Breckenridge isn't complete without a trip up the mountain. Breckenridge Resort has something for everyone, whether it's your first day skiing or snowboarding or you're competing in the Chevrolet Snowboarding Grand Prix. With over 3,000 ski-able acres covering four separate peaks, Breckenridge is a playground for all ages. For those who like to play in the park, Breckenridge has four half pipes, including one super pipe, and four rail/jump parks, ranging from beginner to advanced. And for those who refuse to strap on skis or a board, you can always take the Colorado Superchair to the top of Peak 8 to awe at the amazing view and then ride the chair right back down to safety. No matter what your pleasure, Breckenridge can deliver a ski/ride experience few other mountains can provide.

Our accomadations at the Skier's Edge were very disappointing. Staff members appeared sporadically but never once on the weekend. Our room was too small for four adults and was never attended to, which made us leave two days earlier than planned.

The trip would have been ruined if it had not been for the good humor of our dear friends.

The Skier's Edge in Breckenridge should not be recommended even for the very most budget-minded.
