Telluride for thanksgiving and spring break.
Jackson gets harder and harder to find the stashes of untracked snow. Having not been in a long time but hearing how it is so packed I imagine it is getting worse. I still have lot's of friends there but it is an area that maybe only my daughter could ski with me. The rest of my family could not handle it......This is my life now, can't think of only myself.JeremiahJohnson said:
We have a house in Summit County. I disagree with a lot of the posted. Breck is definitely over crowded during the weekends and Holidays. I don't ski the part of the mountain with crowds or green slopes so I rarely notice it except at the base. Snow is typically very good. It can get windy on parts of the mountain., Breck wind and cold doesn't bother me. Feels like the beach compared to Banff. We ski Keystone on the weekend and Breck during the week. Keystone is steeper and less crowded.
My favorite Colorado resort is Steamboat though. If I were choosing, I'd go Jackson Hole or Whistler.

Curious about Angel Fire. We went to Taos for spring break last year with my brand new teenaged skier. Their lesson area was really good. May do that again and get him a private lesson but also thinking about Angel Fire. Any experience with Taos by any chance and if so can you compare Angel Fire pros & cons to Taos?

1000% Montrose is the closest "large" airport.
Oh yes, skied GT a bunch too, lots of time in Driggs and I'm glad camera phones were not around as much!JustPanda said:
It's nothing compared to the front range CO mountains. It's busier than it was 20 years ago but that's every hill. It still carries a pretty light uphill for the size.
If you think JH is crowed you should hit up Grand T. Less people and similar jibs.
