Skiing is a very popular sport in the United Kingdom, it’s true that there are very few mountains for skiing; due to this limitation many Brits make the short trip to Europe for skiing. Breckenridge Ski Resort located in Colorado is very popular one for skiing. Breckenridge has a ski school, and its momentous downtown offers the skier and non skier alike endless shopping, dining and lot more opportunities. . If you are not expert enough, think twice before attempting The Slides. If you want to take an inexpensive ski vacation you should have enough time a little sacrifice and a little thinking. But, the experience of skiing down a mountain really makes it all worth it.
So you think you’ve had enough skiing down the green circle labeled trails of Breckenridge but don’t have enough skills to try the black diamond ones just yet? Then perhaps its time for you to up the ante a little and head out to the blue square runs on Peak 7.
With at least nine blues to choose from, you’ll always find one that isn’t too crowded. To get to the top of these trails, you may catch a ride on the Independence Super Chair. Since it has a 6 seating capacity, there’ll be enough room for you and your buddies.
Once you hop off the Independence, you can test your skiing skills on any of the following fully groomed trails: Lower Forget Me Not, Pioneer, Claimjumper, Wirepatch, Lincoln Meadows, Angels Rest, and Monte Cristo. From Pioneer, you can branch off to either Swan City or Fort Mary B.
Now, if you really want to make sure you’ve sharpened your skiing skills well enough before pushing yourself off those blue slopes, you can make reservations at the Breckenridge Ski and Ride School. They have daily classes that meet at 9:45 AM at either the base of Peak 8 or Ten Mile Station on Peak 9. Even if you’ve made reservations, be sure you arrive at any of these two assembly areas on time as they will depart at 10 AM with or without you. Those who need to assemble at Peak 9 should be on a chairlift early so as to beat the clock.
For an accelerated learning curve, nothing beats a highly customized private lesson. These tailor made sessions by the pros are able to generate instant feedback through video analysis. One major advantage of such sessions is the chance to be guided through hidden powder stashes allowing you to get the most of what the mountain has to offer. Of course, these lessons come at a hefty price, usually within the $600 range for a full day, and you’d have to make reservations 48 hours earlier. However, because of the things you’ll learn and the pace at which you learn them, you’ll get more than your money’s worth. The end result, you’ll be skiing noticeably better than the average intermediate in no time.
Try to explore all the different intermediate runs on Peak 7. Before you know it, you’ll be primed for the black diamond and double black diamond trails just right above you.
