Winter is off to a slow start.  Breckenridge was scheduled to open on November 7th, but because of unusually dry weather and warmer than normal temperatures, snow making efforts were put on hold.  So start doing your snow dance to Ullr and hope that the snow starts to accumulate.

Winter has arrived and most of Summit County ski resorts have welcomed the start of ski season. Breckenridge is set to open on November 7th, but due to warmer temperatures, the opening day has been delayed. Keystone, A Basin, Copper and Loveland have their lifts running for the winter season.

Skiers and snowboarders, are you ready for the ski season?  Here in Colorado, we are blessed with many places to get away and enjoy a winter vacation.  But recently, ForbesLife ranked Breckenridge at the top of the list.

Vail is the most visited ski resort in the country, but Breckenridge is close behind, usually second with the most ski visits in a season.  Breckenridge is unique in what it offers.  There is expert terrain to challenge the most daring skiers and snowboarders, the historic town and Main Street, and plenty of choices when it comes to ski-in/ski-out lodging.  Last year, Breckenridge Ski Resort opened up Peak 6, increasing the skiable terrain by almost 20 percent. There is 543 acres of intermediate to expert terrain, bumps and groomers,…

The summer got off to a late start after lots of spring snow. Summer temperatures never climbed to their usual heights, which we all know are never scorching.  More rain than usual has kept Colorado exceedingly green and made recreating a little wetter. In spite of all this, real estate sales volume stayed relatively consistent. Compared to last year’s total number of transactions, 2014 is down a couple of percentage points in Breckenridge and up 3% over the entire county. This small change suggests some buyers didn’t get the ski-town home they were seeking and that winter season sales could be better than normal.
