CU Boulder 2012

For real tho, I think I would rather go to school where I'm 10 minutes from my small Ontario hill, rather than go to school at someplace out west that is two hours from the mountains. (Regardless of how good those mountains are.)
 
Sorry for posting in everyone of the 2 million posts about CU but I feel obligated as an alum. The drive is not bad, go with friends it goes fast, guarantee you makes friends with someone who owns a place in the mountains and stay the whole weekend (or week), snows in town and you will find tons of people to hit urbans with (will vill rails are poppin on snow days), ski premieres always come through and last of all the parties, girls, scene, town, d1 football and over 300 sunny days a year are a nice addition to the skiing.
 
To each his own, for me I would rather go skiing lots at my local hill than pay big bucks to drive to the mountains only on weekends. Paying for everything is hard enough as it is.
 
its a 1-1:15 from boulder, not 2 hours. go on week days and the road is wide open the whole way. and your pass pays for itself in 4 days.
 
I go to Western State College of Colorado. 30 min free bus ride to Crested Butte, cheap season pass. Have fun skiing over-crowded over-priced I-70 resorts that are 2 hours away.
 
this is random but i am from indiana and they offered my friend who is a junior a full ride scholarship. he is visiting this weekend.
 
true that. breck and keystone have really good parks but nothing else (although the lake chutes at breck are fun). i just got back from keystone and i thought they might have at least some fun all mountain terrain, but i didn't find any. maybe i didn't look hard enough but keystone was probably my least favorite summit co. mountain. a-basin, on the other hand, was fun as hell. i would definitely go back there.
 
you could drive 2 hours to break or you could go to the University of utah, great school, and be 20 min away from PC Canyons alta brightona and snowbird... CU Boulder is overrated.
 
cu is the tits.dont live in kitteredge it blows major dick.

or will vill.

skiing is not that far...

join cufst

yee
 
I have friends who go who ski 4 days a week and study engineering at the same time. You just have to manage your time right and CU will be the best. And the drive is 45 minutes if you know how to drive in Colorado lol
 
kitt west was the shit when i was in it, but i was also in a cluster. it was pretty much a 12 person apt.
 
Not kidding. Eldora is like 45 minutes,and alright,anything else (Vail,Beaver Creek,Keystone,Breck) is 2 hours away on a week day with no traffic. You could be looking at 3.5-4 hours on a weekend.
 
ski bum?

but really boulder isnt that bad, it will take you 2 hours to get to the mountains on the weekends though, after MLK day everyone and the mother seems to take 70 on the weekends, during the week it is 1:15-1:30 for me to get from my house in aurora to keystone.

to the guy saying keystone sucked, you have no idea where to look for the good stuff then.

gato is right though, if you are serious about skiing alta and park city is probably the best combo of resorts to get park and pow.

advice to OP:

1. never go to breck on weekends.

2. ski during the week.

3. find rich friends.

4. ski beaver creek, if you like free cookies at the end of every day. and they have awesome terrain.

5. a-basin has summits best terrain.

6. either leave early or super late to avoid traffic coming home.

7?????????????????????????????????????????

8. profit.
 
I'm going to CU next year. Ill be skiing the streets in boulder a bit, breck, key, a bay, and vail/the beave once in a while. CU is pretty close to skiing, and its the tits. stoked to go
 
"(Vail,Beaver Creek,Keystone,Breck) is 2 hours away on a week day with no traffic"

Clearly your Saturday night is a week day.
