Purgatory Resort
Super Bowl Sunday is a very under-rated day to get on the slopes in Colorado. Less traffic on the roads, shorter lift lines, and you can ski an entire day because kickoff is after the lifts close. If that’s not reason enough to take some turns sporting your favorite team’s colors (Bronco Orange strongly preferred), five Colorado Ski Country USA member resorts are even offering discounted lift tickets and special festivities.
