Opening Weekend

The last few days have been hectic down here in Colorado because a bunch of resorts opened this weekend! Breckenridge, Keystone, and Copper all opened Friday, and Breck had a free pancake breakfast. It was so cold though that the maple syrup on our pancakes froze solid haha! But after only a run or two it had warmed up, the sun was out, and everyone was stoked to be riding Breck again :) They had a super long run which was awesome, no park the first day though.

Saturday headed over to Keystone, which just remodeled their gondola with new cabins and a lower starting point. Reallllly crowded, but once we made it to the park it was all worth it! I think there's something like 15 features in the park, including lots of fun boxes and rails, corrugated pipes, and even a gigantic propane tank jib.

Sunday woke up early and walked to the lift at Breck and picked up Starbucks on the way. First tracks meant a little fresh snow and a perfectly groomed little jib park. Not much, only four jibs, but definitely enough to play around on! Once the little park started getting crowded we grabbed some lunch and headed over to Keystone. Crowds were still out of control, and the run a bit icy, but the park was great fun and everyone was basically having a party on the mountain. The bike-rack jib and baby jump line were probably the most fun jibs of the day, but the whole park was really dope. Late in the day it started getting chilly, and flakes started to fly, so once the grey skies rolled in we left the mountain in search of some happy hour to complete our even happier weekend.

Hopefully in a couple more weeks the mountains will be on point!

Best opening weekend ever, awesome weather and an even more awesome crew!
