Check this service out, saw it on local Denver station this week : https://slopethreads.com/
Might save some of you a bit of cash on ski clothes.

By the time you get to the bottom you will know how to ski. Saved you $300.....you're welcome! We are headed to Breck February 15.
If breck is a **** show like it was last year, check out A basin. More relaxed vibe and less people

Lessons for sure.
I have all the gear you need if you want to borrow anything. Please don’t do camo or columbia...don’t be a gayper...Texas already has a bad rap out there...ha.
Don’t overthink it, sure, you’re gunna be sore...but you may discover a super fun way to spend some time on the hill!!
Hope you have a blast...PM me if you’re needing gear.

You are going to be sore if you don't ski often. Even the best will be after the first runs of the year. What makes you sore mostly is falling and getting back up. You can tootle around on bunny hills all day, never fall and not be sore but who wants to do that? If you go off in 4 ft of powder in the glades and get crazy you are going to be sore.vif you rip up extreme terrain and wipe out a few times you will be sore.
I've been snowboarding extreme terrain for 30 years. I kinda know my ****. Lol.

Extreme probably isn't the right term. Since Kirkwood has been mentioned I managed to ride the Wall a few years ago for the 10th time. Whales Tail at Breck. Took the snowcat to the top of Keystone (above lift served terrain). That's all within the last 5-6 years. I'm 51 now. Blacks and double blacks are good enough. The doubles would be extreme for the average Joe from Texas.
