Copper Mountain Resort

Area Profile

Copper Mountain is within shuttle range of Denver International Airport (75 miles) and a lot of folks like to fly in early so they can get on the slopes by noon. They have 22 lifts serving 2,433 acres of playland, with 125 trails slightly weighted to more advanced skiers. The trail systems are separated by ability levels so beginners don't cross in front of experts. Copper's village has been re-done and is now among the best and most convenient of the Colorado destination resorts, with plenty to keep you occupied off-slope.
