my buddy is moving to Boulder next month. Wondering where folks recomend to ride a carving board? My friend said I can buy some lift tickets now for discount- 4 for 80 bucks. any recomendations greatly appreciated. Also- what times of the year is the best to go.

Ethan,

Colorado is very carve friendly as a whole. The best places (in my opinion), that are drivable for a one day trip, are:

-Beaver Creek
-Copper Mnt.
-Keystone (some days)

Other resorts worth mentioning are:
- Loveland
- Arapahoe Basin

And the Daddy of them all: Aspen (all the resorts)

Bottom line is you have about 6-7 resorts you can choose from close to Boulder.

Those 4 day passes are a screaming deal though!

Hmmmm, I would say 4 to 4.5 hours if the roads are good.
