Vail has world-class skiing. Vail is one of the largest ski areas in North America, and has terrain for all types of skiers. The back bowls average 450 inches of snow per year! I have found nothing to compare to them. You can easily spend a week at Vail and not tire of it, because there are so many runs to choose from.
The main attraction for Vail Resorts would be the snow. This is because they are based in Colorado and specialize in skiing holidays and providing a good experience.
Thank you
Aspen, Breckenridge, Beaver Creak, Keystone, Durango, and Steamboat Springs. These resorts are the top tier ski resorts in the state of Colorado. Colorado has some of the best skiing in the United States.
Vail has great bowl skiing! They have some nice bowls for more beginning skiers but have very challenging ones also
It depends on where you go. Colorado is a good one to ski in. There are a few good resorts in Pennsylvania and New York. I think that in the winter, where ever you go that is in the mountainous parts of the US would be good for skiing.
Colorado and Vermont are good winter vacation areas for snowboarding and skiing.
The driving distance between Los Angeles, CA and Vail, CO is approximately 925 miles. The driving time would be approximately 14 hours 30 minutes if you were to travel non-stop in good driving conditions. (The driving time does not take into consideration conditions which may extend trip time such as weather, road work and rush hour traffic in urban areas.)
Make sure that you buy your lift tickets before you go, as the Vail ski area in Colorado has a "sister" resort in Hawaii!
YES and also it is a good thing
You can't actually ski in Denver, because Denver is flat. But, near denver yet in the mountains are some good places: Keystone (great for families) Vail (great bowls) Breckenridge (nice town area) Boulder Loveland Winter Park (has a train from the city)
== == * Skiing or snowboarding is still good in March, so maybe Val Thorens in the French Alps. * Traditionally Colorado has the best skiing of the year during March. In combination with moderate temperatures, this makes for a great vacation destination.
The website http://www.vailsnowboardlessons.com/lessons.html will show you some options on snowboarding lessons. They are very good at teaching. I personally have learned from them.
