Gets really crowed - watch out for oother skiers - can loose people in your group easily. Found visitors to get lost or confused as to which mountain is which. More

On our annual family ski vacations we go to a different location each year. This year we decided to give Breckenridge a try. If you're a "blues cruiser" like myself I'd advise to stay over at Peak 7 to avoid the crowds on Peaks 8 & 9. I'd also advise to watch out for snowboarders who don't follow any ski... More

With a group of 30+ college students a lot of variety is needed to keep them out of trouble! Breckenridge has been a great place for several years of trips over spring break, due to the variety of terrain (and lots of it), great assistance from the group sales department, and location relatively close to DIA, and close to the...

This place is HUGE. With 4+ mountains, skiiers and snowboarders of all levels will enjoy this resort! My husband and I only had time to ski Peaks 7, 8, and 9. We also spent some time night skiing at Keystone. Unfortunately, on day 3, I had an accident and completely tore my ACL and MCL. Despite the injury and subsequent... More

Wide runs that disperse the crowds nicely for lots of space to ski. Good base facilities and close proxmitiy to a lively downtown. The altitude didn't bother my wife or son or me, but our in-laws had trouble. Keep oxygen around if that sort of thing bothers you. More

Beautiful spring skiing experience for the third week of March, 2012. Low snow levels, but the weather was fantastic. Spent 5 days at Breck and another at A Basin. Signed up for the Epic pass. Logged all of our runs and gave cumulative totals every night. With daughters and son-in-laws, all mid 20's. They got a kick out of earning... More

Breck has something for everyone. Plenty of runs for boarders and skiers, beginners to expert alike. Good bars and restaurants and very easy access from the town on the free gondola. Breckinridge is a real town too.. So there's great shopping and eating for all the non-snowsports folks in the group! More

We were lucky we ended up here because the snow was more prevalent than on other mountains (higher altitude). Mountain not as large as I'd hoped. Most of the time you take the runs back to the bottom of the mountain. Vs. in Vail where you wouldn't come own until the end of the day. Runs a little boring. We... More
