I am up near Breck and Keystone what are some of the difrences in the mountians i know breck has a better park. But if somone could tell me some of the difrences it would be cool.
 
both thier parks are way sick, but breck probably gets a bit better snow then keystone and its usually a bit softer there
 
actually the snow is about the same, except breck is a bit windier if there is wind. keystone is great for anything, so is breck. if you wanna do rails, go to keystone. jumps, breck. all mountain, either. they are really close to the same
 
Breck has a much better pipe. The stone has more rails and smaller but perfect jumps, and its own chair (whereas at Breck you may wait 20 min in line on a weekday).
 
im gonna be going out west in the 2nd week of february. i'm looking at keystone, but i imagine its gonna be packed at that time of year. is it worth going or should i look for a smaller place in colorado. id also take powder over park anyday so is keystone the place to go?
 
keysotnes park is a work of art

there jumps are perfectly built

brecks jumps are HUGE there pipe is HUGE and there rails are HUGE

dont go to keystone for pow,

go to a-basin vail copper or breck

vail has the most terrain for pow but its vail

 
thanks, i think im going to go to keystone for a little while then go to stay with some friends in copper and hit up the pow. just called them a minute ago and its all cool. but thanks for the reccomendations
 
brecks jumps are amazing, keystones are good but i didnt like the last big one, it was so hard for me to get speed sometimes.
 
park wise they are about the same, i mean breck is massive but im content at either, the one park about keystone i hate is getting to and from the goods, way to many chair lifts, so i would say breck for overall enjoyment, but it can get supper windy
 
yeah if its bad weather go to keystone

breck will be windy and they will shut down the jumps and it might shit on you(not snow slush) and keystones park is in a valley so wind doesnt get to it
 
the wind does get to it, not as bad as breck, but the wind always blows uphill which can make the larger line of jumps unhitable at times, especially the last one. i actually like keystone's park better, way better rails; the jumps are money though smaller than breck, which is better for learning; the only thing breck has significantly better is the pipe. oh, and lift lines can be rediculous at breck, whereas keystone it's long if it's 10 minutes, even on weekends, and it's pretty empty during the week. as for pow neither are that great, go to vail, copper, or abasin.
 
actually it's common sense, stay away from the crowded areas, and go where people aren't. that are get in the hiking mindset.
 
keystone has like a fun chill park. brecks is like you have to get psyced and prepared for each feature, you can just flow through them, they are all scary
 
haha...uhm i'm pretty sure saying having a bit of wit to ya is doing the same justice! but thanks for the translation!
 
brecks jumps are massive and keystones rails are perfect (their jumps are great too), but keystone has night park skiing. breck can also have gnarly winds that can drop the temperature down to well below zero.

for powder, keystone does have some really nice tree stashes. but so does copper, basin, and vail. but the secret places for powder that doesn't get skied off and no lift lines are loveland and bever creek. the lake chutes at breck are nice, but over rated. if you know big mountain, you'll be very under-whelmed by lake chutes.
