silverton

i cant take him[liam downey] seriously cuz his name reminds me of that downy bear from back when i was a kid -d loc

I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.

I was at aspen two weeks ago and it rocked my socks in the summer, I don't even want to think about that place in the winter, plus the nighlife goes off there, definately and added bonus at any ski town.

umm...Vail isn't in summit county....

best place to ski aren't all resorts......

Silverton
Berthoud
Crested Butte BC
Red Mountain Pass
Snowmass/ Aspen Highland BC

If you looking for park they all are decent. Some people like certain ones more. figure out what you like best - pipe, rails, etc

all of summit county is WAY DOPE! Breck Keystone Copper. Then further east is Loveland and A-Basin which are always good really early and really late season. then you got vail and beaver creek which are good if ur staying up for multiple night, cuz then if the park or snow is no good you can just drive 30 mins back to summit county. then ofcourse you have winter park which is ok. pretty dope its got good BC. all of the aspen shit kicks ass, have not been there tho. Crested Butte kicks ass for BC aswell.
