by Colorado Snow Sensei on Feb.06, 2013, under General

As snow stacked up at Colorado ski resorts recently, skiers and snowboarders renewed their devotion to the state’s signature sports.

by Guest on Jan.25, 2013, under General

This post comes to us from Amber Johnson, editor of Mile High Mamas.

Winter Park Unveils Coca-Cola Tubing

by Colorado Snow Sensei on Dec.29, 2012, under Resorts

Tubing_2_122512Like a big present waiting under the tree, Winter Park visitors awoke Christmas morning to the resort’s newest jewel, the Coca-Cola® Tubing Hill, which opens for the 2012/2013 season today.

Colorado’s newest tubing hill features four separate lanes with banked curves ensuring fun for all ages and an enclosed conveyor lift that whisks riders back to the top of the hill for another run. Tickets can be purchased at the Vintage Hotel and are good for a full hour. Just because the ski slopes close for the day doesn’t mean the snow riding has to stop, as the Coca-Cola® Tubing Hill will be open from 11:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m.
