Breckenridge Ski School

I have been there before in winter and I ski but I want to learn how to snowboard this summer (im gonna be there) and I also want to make friends or meet ppl other than just hang uot with my fmly all the time. Im 15. Is there a ski school there, and will I be able to meet ppl my age and hang out???? If so what is a good place to go, and how do I break the ice??/

Thankyou

i have been to breckenridge before and it is amazing!!! when at ski school i would be really nice and funny. Give compliments on ski cloths and other stuff. When you on the runs and mess up laugh at yourself. Try to have a good time and be really outgoing. Im leaving for aruba in 20 min with my family. I know what you mean when you say you dont want to hang out just with your family!!! Good Luck hope all goes super and you make lots of friends!!

More footage of first time skiers at Breckenridge Ski & Ride School on Peak 8.

Is that a good time to ski? It's my fall break from school

That's a bit early and iffy even for Breck. You may luck out and get an early season storm or two and fantastic conditions or nothing. You really should wait a couple of more weeks if you can or until Christmas break.

I am from New England and we have a week at the end of february off from school, and i am going out to Breckenridge/ vail to ski. I was wondering if Colorado had a vacation in february.

Not that i know of.Check with the school district

We would like to be on or very close to the mountain, and a year-round pool would be a big sell for our kids. Any suggestions on condo or townhouse complexes?
Is the elementary school very far from the mountain? Can only spend up to $1700 w/ utilities.
We all love to ski. Moving from southern maine- (an hour north of boston)
Thanks for any advice available. Is Steamboat the best for a small town, affordability, ski town experience? I have only been to Breckenridge for a season many years ago. thanks again-

Check these for some listings. Range seems to be $800 to $1500 without utilities. http://fortcollins.craigslist.org/search /apa?query=steamboat&srchType=A

My best friend, her boyfriend, my boyfriend, and I are all planning on going on a spring break ski trip to Colorado. We are going to be driving since we are seniors in high school and we want to keep it fairly cheap. I was wondering if anyone knew what the best spots in Colorado were? I've heard Breckenridge, Winter Park, Aspen, etc. We don't really need a big party scene just some good skiing and maybe a bit of shopping. Also, if anyone knows of any good travel websites it would be great to know those, too! Thanks in advance! (:

Winter Park has two peaks, one is Winter Park (the touristy, groomed part of the area) and a nearly separate area called Mary Jane. MJ has long bump runs through the woods, lots of locals and it's just a hell of a lot of fun.


Mary Jane (Winter Park) and Breckenridge and Loveland are my favorite areas. Both Breck and MJ get pretty crowded on the weekends, so try to ski during the week.


Aspen and Vail are overrated and lower elevation, to be honest. More of a resort than a ski destination, though Vail is certainly the better of the two. Both very expensive though.


If you're trying to cut costs, Loveland and Arapahoe Basin are both awesome areas, uncrowded and 400 inches of snow a year at Loveland -- but they have no town at the bottom, you'd have to stay in Idaho Springs or Georgetown. You can't really go wrong with Colorado areas.
