Apres Ski as Telluride Ski Resort 

I had a dream about skiing last night. It was a beautiful spring powder day and after skiing all day we went to the base area for some après drinks. I’m sure I’m not the only one dreaming of skiing right now. As March turns to April, many skiers are dreaming of those perfect spring days capped by drinks in the sunshine with friends.

Last night, I hunkered down in the basement with my husband and three kids (one just home from college) to watch Aspen Extreme. “If it’s so classic, mom, how come I’ve never heard of it?” Our kids have much to learn. It came out seven years before he was born.  I’m suggesting movies with a plot that have killer ski scenes—not just ski movies with awesome ski action from Warren Miller, TGR, and MSP, though we’ve got links for those below, too—or maybe even slightly

Loveland Ski Area - Dustin Schaeffer 

In order to keep all our guests and employees safe and healthy, we have made the incredibly difficult decision to close for the 2019/20 season.  This has not been easy for anyone, but it is the best way we can help stop the spread of COVID-19. We understand that there will be some frustration regarding our decision, but we feel strongly that this is best for everyone. 

We are communicating this information with our employees and providing scheduled seasonal Loveland Ski Area employees with up to three weeks of

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, all Colorado Ski Country USA (CSCUSA) ski areas will be suspending their operations beginning tomorrow, Sunday, March 15, until further notice. We know that this action will cause disappointment and inconvenience for many visitors and residents, but it is made with the best interests of our guests, employees and the communities in which we operate in mind. The Governor of Colorado has issued an executive order directing this suspension of operations. He has done so in consultation with Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment (CDPHE) and local public
