Keystone Colorado

[PHF2ATL]

I'm trying to get my mom to take me to Keystone for Spring Break (March 26-April 1) for some snowboarding. I don't know how many of you all ski/snowboard or have been to Keystone, but if you have I have a few questions...

-How are the slopes in late March?

-What other activites are there besides the slopes?(my mom doesn't ski or board so she needs something to do)

-Is the trip worth it, or should we go somewhere else like Beaver Creek or Copper Mountain.(Vail and Aspen are a little expensive)

Do any of you have any other recomendations for ski resorts out west in the spring? thanks

We're already going to SXM in June so we didn't want to go south. I love snowboarding but I'm stuck here in Virginia with the little stuff. I want to go out to Colorado and see what snowboarding is all about.

Living in Colorado I might be able to give you some info,

The slopes are still good in March. Since the elevation is much higher, it might be sunny in Denver, but a blizzard in the rockies.
All of the mountain towns have other things to do other than skiing. If you get a nice enough resort you can leave your mom at the spa while you go out on the slopes.


If Aspen and Vail are too expensive, then I would reccomend Breckenridge. Its a great little town with a ton to do. I would also reccomend Winter Park. My grandparents are up there so I go to visit them all the time, http://www.winterparkfanatic.com/
Up the road is Sol Vista. Oh and the Breckenridge site is http://www.townofbreckenridge.com/
