OK, maybe you have heard of Copper Mountain and don't really get the whole “Secret” thing. In reality, Copper Mountain as a vacation destination is no secret, maybe you have seen full-page ads in your favorite outdoor magazine or have seen a Copper booth at a local ski show. Clearly, this mountain enclave works hard to market itself, to get the word out about the multitude of desirable vacation attractions that grace the slopes and base village. While Copper may be dwarfed by the other area resorts in terms of its marketing reach, the resort boasts one of the largest ski mountains in Summit County, hosts a robust base village with tons of things to do, and offers a vacation experience that is unrivaled by the other mountain resort destinations in the area.

 

So what makes Copper Mountain so great….what is this “Secret” I talk about? Let’s start with the basics. Quality accommodations that range from hotel rooms to expansive, ultra-luxurious vacation homes. Check. A flat, walkable and family-friendly base village with shops, restaurants, and nightlife. Check. Off-mountain activities for the whole family that include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, horse-back adventures, snowmobiling, dog-sledding, snow-tubing, zip-lining, ice skating, horse-drawn sleigh rides, a fitness center with spa, and much more. Check. An amazing on-mountain offering of never-ending groomers, steeps, gladed trails, massive bowls, steeps, and POWDER! Check, check, CHECK!!!

 

It seems that all of the basics are covered, now, WHAT IS THE SECRET!!!! Well, it is all a secret and I share this secret with you in hopes that you and your family will get to enjoy one of the most memorable vacation experiences offered in the Colorado High Country. Copper Mountain is a world-class ski and snowboard destination that few in the world know about. The slopes are shockingly uncrowded. The lift lines are, well, non-existent. Holiday crowds, they are at the other Summit County resorts, those staying and playing at Copper are having the time of their lives on the ski slopes while those in nearby Breckenridge or Keystone are waiting in line or threading through the crowded slopes hoping to make it to the bottom in one piece. While those at Copper Mountain are strolling through the village to explore the restaurants and shops, those in the other nearby resorts are shoulder-to-shoulder with everyone else trying to squeeze through the base villages, get into a restaurant with less than a two-hour wait, or shop with the masses on “Main Street”. 

 

While you are enjoying a relaxing, fun, and cherished vacation experience at Copper Mountain this year, everyone else will be struggling to get a breath in the uber-crowded villages and on the skier-drenched slopes of the area behemoths like Vail, Breckenridge or Keystone. I share my Copper Mountain Secret with you so that you, your family and friends might be able to have the greatest holiday, filled with fun and excitement, without the crowds, mayhem, and stress of vacationing in a destination that is beyond crowded. Copper Mountain IS the ultimate mountain destination for vacationers who prefer skiing and snowboarding over standing in line, who seek to squeeze every bit of possibility out of their vacation, for those wanting the pinnacle of enjoyment without having to fight the crowds to get it! I am singing Copper’s song loud and often, you might want to take advantage of this inside scoop before the Copper Mountain Secret gets out. Oh, and I extend a full-hearted apology to my fellow Summit County locals for sharing our secret with the rest of the world!
