Ski Cooper, Keystone, A-Basin

A long time favorite trip of this club is meeting up at Leadville with the 10^th Mountain Division. This time we’ve extended the trip to include Keystone on Wednesday and A-basin on Thursday. Then we’ll all meet up at Ski Cooper on Friday and Saturday (Sunday for those who want to drive back late). Lodging this year is at the Columbine Inn which includes continental breakfast, indoor spa, and free Wi/Fi High Speed Wireless Internet. Sally Hammond is our fun, experienced trip captain on this trip. Tentative plans include a welcome party at Pizza Hut on Thursday (included with trip) with optional Quincy’s on Friday (great steaks) and dinner at the Brewery Saturday.
