The Copper Mountain ski trip was a first for the ski club when we created back to back trips with the FSC Snowmass trip the previous week. A total of 25 members, 13 standalone and 12 extension, enjoyed a great short week at Copper Mountain. The standalone members arrived at Copper Mountain on Sunday afternoon and had 4 great days of skiing. The extension members had an extra day in Snowmass and were then transported to Copper Mountain on Sunday to join the group.

Everyone stayed at Center Village in 2 bed/2 bath condos that were walking distance to the American Eagle and American Flyer lifts, restaurants, bars and the free bus for the entire Copper Mountain village. The week greeted us with mild temperatures, a little snow, sun, light winds and no lift lines. One day there was sunshine and NO WIND, a rarity on the mountain, for a beautiful day of skiing.

After arriving on Sunday afternoon we had an evening wine and cheese reception with a welcome talk by mountain hosts telling us what to expect during the week. Tuesday evening a group dinner at El Zacatecano Mexican Restaurant featured very good margaritas! Thursday evening was a pizza party with everyone bringing any ‘leftovers’ from the week for all to share. Friday was our easy bus ride back to Denver and a smooth flight to Florida.

Thanks for traveling with Space Coast Ski and Travel Club. We hope to see you on a future trip.
