Looking to take a quick trip, I want to find a place where I can board and fly almost right into the town. Dont want to have to take any drive longer then 1 hour to the mountain...anyone have any ideas?
Good place to Snowboard where you can fly directly?
- Thread starter Spec8in561
- Start date
To get from Denver International Airport to either Winter Park or Copper Mountain would take about 1.5 hours. Is that too long for you?
Tahoe...you can fly into Reno...and you have about 10 resorts to choose from...
Aspen. The ski areas (Ajax, Highlands, Buttermilk) are about 5 minutes from the airport. Snowmass is about 15 minutes.
-S.S.-
Edit: Salt Lake would be a good alternative. All of the LCC/BCC ski areas are ~40 minutes or less from the airport. And they get the Greatest Snow on Earth.

Sorry guys I should have mentioned those spots are too far. Those are my usual spots. I am travelling from florida so I guess I should mention it may be somewhere on the east coast more likely since I want to cut down on flight time as well.
Oh. If you're doing the East Coast, then it's not even really to be considered snowboarding.............. :dancing:one7one said:

It might be considered curling...isn't it really icy on the east syyyyde?SkaredShtles said:

Yeah, but you go up to *Tahoe*........ you know, Tahoe is actually quite *different* from areas in the Rockies. Of from pretty much anywhere else, for that matter.dh girlie said:

Yeah I go to Tahoe...a LOT...and I don't experience ice very often...once in a while, but not often. I think you're just jealous...SkaredShtles said:Yeah, but you go up to *Tahoe*........ you know, Tahoe is actually quite *different* from areas in the Rockies.
