When we first moved to Colorado, we moved in November. Smack dab at the beginning of winter. Did I mention we moved from Florida where winter is like four days long? One of my friends told me that people come to Colorado for the winter and stay for the summer.
I have found that the longer I stay here, the more I love winter. I love to go to the ski towns but we still haven’t visited the ski towns in the summertime. This summer, I hope to spend a lot of time exploring the mountain towns in the summer and Copper Mountain is one of them.
Copper is amazing in the winter time and I can only imagine how great it is in the summertime. I am looking forward to taking the chairlift up so that I can do some hiking on those hills that we have skied down. Did you know that the chairlift is free when you spend $12 in the village? And kids under 12 are free, too. There are so many other things that you can do like zipline, play minigolf, ride gokarts, and more.
My personal favorite is to visit Sugar Lips Mini Donuts. I recommend the S’mores donuts. I sure hope Sugar Lips is open in the summertime, too! I think it will be the perfect place to stop after a morning of hiking.
It’s the best deal for families in Colorado! The revised pricing for 2015 is $49 per day and $109 for a season pass.
Activities open 10:00am-5:00pm Sun-Friday and Sat 10:00am-7:00pm. The summer activities will open June 12, 2015.
