Default A little adventure...

Friend and I will be heading across country from Chicago next week on a little 3 week adventure. Spending a week or so in Colorado snowboarding, then going to SLC for a week to hit the Canyons, Solitude, and Park City, and then driving down to Sedona to do some riding, and off-roading. Probably going to take the 2.0T since its Quattro and Tip, and will get decent gas miles. Boards in back and bikes on roof.

Anyone in those areas that wants to join up for some riding is more than welcome.

That sounds like a great time. I've always wanted to do some rafting thru the canyon. I've heard from a few people that it is a blast.

Have a great time!

And no road rage outta you! [8D]

Thx man.

No more road rage from me.....i'm a new man. And I have never had problems with drivers out West compared to all the ******** in Chicago. People are just more cool and relaxed out there.

Where in Colorado? If you're going through Summit County (I-70) don't go to Keystone, don't go to Breckenridge, don't go to Aspen, don't go to Vail (maybe Vail) go to Copper. The tickets are relatively cheap, but that's not the issue; the snow and the mountain are the best in Northern Colorado.

I skied Breckenridge and Copper both this year. Breckenridge was the only one out of the 2 that had groomed their runs. When I went to copper, their runs looked like crap.... Granted, they had just received a lot of fresh powder, but it was very uneven terrain. It was my frist day of 5, and it wore me out quick.... Went to breckenridge the next day, and stayed there for the rest of the week.

What has the snowfall been like in CO in general so far this season? Is there alot of snow on the ground? Alot of fresh stuff?
