Full review

High in altitude, we find a very good quality of snow. We've been there for one day and found prices very affordable for a mountain this quality. At the top you have a view over the entire World... Definitely smaller than other resorts in the region but a different style. Another interesting point, as in all resorts in Colorado, you'll meet there lots of beginners and as chairs are pretty slow you have lot of time to see them crashing... Great show!
