The color is Copper and you can just color it BIG. Copper Mountain one of the largest ski and snowboard resort the Rockies. It has steep and deep. It has bowls. It has gentle slopes and it had intermediate terrain. In short, it has enough to keep any skier or boarder tickled coppery-pink. Vertical is abundant at 2,601 feet and skiable terrain is spread over 2,450 acres.
Naturally Divided Terrain: No less an authority than the US Forest Service has called Copper "the most nearly perfect ski mountain in all of North America". We'd love to take credit for this, but the truth is that Mother Nature gave us a perfect ski hill. To the West lies our beginner terrain, in the middle is our intermediate, and to the east and up top lies our expert and double diamond skiing. This layout allows the beginners to have their own area, not intimidated by expert skiers whizzing by or taking a wrong turn onto a difficult run. Conversely, the experts have their own area, too, and the intermediates can ride several lifts, deciding whether or not to push it hard and ski to the east, or take a nice cruiser to the west. This layout also makes for a safe ski experience, as skiers and riders of all abilities are comfortable in their own element.
Choose from among 125 trails with 21 percent rated beginner, 25 percent intermediate, 36 percent advanced, and 18 percent expert. There are 22 lifts to get you to those trails, including a six-person lift, four high-speed quads, five triples, five doubles and eight surface pullers. It gets 32,088 skiers up the mountain an hour.
Big is close too, only 75 miles from Denver and 20 miles from Vail off I-70 at Exit 195. It is easily accessible from Denver International Airport and shuttle service is available for those who want to avoid the hassles of rolling up I-70.
