Wondering where all the Colorado homies ski after the resorts shut down, if at all. I know breck is open until may 30th and winter park til mid may, anyone know if either have a park. Same question for a basin, do they keep a park up of any sort in may? I also know loveland pass is an option but I wanna save hike parks to the real end of the season.

Winter Park doesn't have a park anymore for the remainder of the season - only the Mary Jane side of the mountain is open. A-Basin usually has a few rails/features up until they close.



Can't speak for Breck but I think last season they closed their park about a month before the season closed out.

Loveland pass has a sweet hike park. Its always so much fun. Does anyone know about if Ruby hill is open still? But to answer you question Winter park will have Mary jain open still but no park. A basin normally has a rail or two but cannot confirm.

Brecks park is gone because just fuck the spring park scene I guess, but there’s a hike park in frisco that’s setup with some jank ass features. A basin is all that’s going rn and Loveland pass

Abasin usually has like 5 rails and maybe a small small small jump late season. Usually like a down rail, dfd flat, propane tank of sorts etc.

Nothing special but also very fun while lapping the rest of the mtn.

Loveland still has a park off chair 6. All jobs and rails, no jumps but surprisingly good. probably around 15 features. You can get the 4-pack tickets on FB for ~$40 now from people selling.

wait looks like you said mid May. Probably A Basin is best bet then

There's going to be a Ski Jam for Kit Chat on Saturday at Loveland Pass. Should be pretty fun but besides that I don't know of any parks left.

Look up Loveland on FB marketplace. They’ll be listed as excess 4-pack passes. I’ve bought a few for my wife. You just clip the stub off at the bottom (keep it in case you lose it - my wife actually got a replacement when hers fell off) and then zip tie the pass on and you’re good to go straight to the lifts

Yea, it's bullshit to not have even a tube or baby box when they're open for another month.
