If you had the chance to stroll through Breckenridge this summer you surely would have experienced the hustle, bustle and energy of town. A very lively Main Street, crowded restaurants and music wafting from the Riverwalk Center were just a few indicators that Breckenridge was a popular summer tourism destination this year. Likewise, evidence showed signs of an improved Breckenridge economy noting a 3 percent increase in tax revenue for July over the previous summer, and year-to-date numbers through August were up more than 1.5 percent over 2009. 

Beyond Breckenridge, Silverthorne’s numbers were reportedly up by 1 percent though Frisco was down less than 1 percent through August when compared to 2009. Summit County’s sales tax for the unincorporated areas…

It was an incredible first day at the Breckenridge Ski Resort!  Breckenridge is boasting “Breckenridge, Like Never Before”. Correct and succinct is the message, I’d say, immediately  upon our arrival at the base of Peak 8. A quick gondola ride brought us to the all new base facility for the resort at One Ski Hill Place. The new Rock Resort features the T Bar and Ski Hill Grill for food and grog, and luxurious real estate, indeed like never before.    After a hearty breakfast of French toast, compliments of Breckenridge Ski Resort, we went on to enjoy a 29” base and 8” or so of fresh, light and fluffy powder on Crescendo and Callies Alley.  Spruce was slick and super fast. And hearty hikers, (not us) braved an ascent by foot to the front bowl for a taste…
