Anyone know what the best cheap ski resort is around Denver? I have been to Winterpark, Keystone, and Sunlight. Of those three, Sunlight was the cheapest but not really the most fun. The good thing about it was that its not crowded. Looking for something closer to Denver though with the same price range or volume of people.
The closest resorts to Denver are Loveland, right on I-70 at the Eisenhower tunnel, and Eldora, which is near Nederland west of Boulder. Unfortunately the places with the best snow and most amenities are also crowded and more expensive. Once Eldora gets the snow it needs it's really a great place, with few crowds.
Keep in mind that I am new to the sport but I have found some great deals at A-Basin. It is right on the other side of Loveland Pass. I have fun there and there are some runs and trails that I have yet to try out due to lack of skill. I think there is a 4 pack deal for like $130.
Second vote on ABasin.
After the initial beginning of the season crush there's no line and with the Montezuma bowl open there's tons of terrain for all levels.
The best deal was the $119 four pack (expired) but the current 4 pack is only $139 but it expires Dec 12th so don't wait!
I used to spend a week in Denver every winter and I usually went to Loveland, though I spent a few winters at Breckenridge. Overall I liked Breckenridge better, but Loveland was more chill, and not as crowded for sure.
