I can meet anywhere along the I-70 corridor. Frisco/Breck would definitely be closer for me, but I'm not sure if the Denverites would want to leave town.
Jack, should we roll a little skiing/boarding into this and meet at one of the front range mountains?

I'm intending to get to Leadville this weekend for Ski Joring.
As for next weekend? I wouldn't want to go past Leadville, but I would consider something along the I-70 corridor. I don't know many places, though. There are a couple of places in Idaho Springs, but I'm not allowed to spend any money there. (Long story.)
There's a restaurant or two in the parking lot near the City Market on the hill outside Dillon, but I can't remember what they are. They might be good for parking and access, if someone can help me refresh my memory.

I would love to join you which is why I brought up having you guys on the Front Range drive an hour or two. Spring skiing at A Basin would be nice. If not, I still might consider heading to Denver that weekend. Heck... I was just there for a week and a half.Originally Posted by pbkid

ok, also, some other ideas if everyone wants to ski...
i picked up some BOGO free tickets at wendy's today, to copper and winter park, so the lift tickets would be about $45 a piece...
or, we could buy a fourpass (if they still have those, basically its four lift tickets for around $150, so that would break down to $40 a piece)
great, im excited to meet up with some other colorado VX'ers

If everyone else is up for it I could go for some front range boarding (never done it before), but I totally understand if everyone wants to save money and just do lunch. Besides, skiing would be fun, but there really wouldn't be any VX's involved (aside from the drive to the mountain). I suppose we could do a little mini meet and greet/ checking out each others rides before or after skiing/ boarding.
What's the consensus? Lunch meet (get...lunch meet) or ski/board meet?

agreed, that we may get more time to 'chit-chat' and 'dork around' talking about VX's...If everyone else is up for it I could go for some front range boarding (never done it before), but I totally understand if everyone wants to save money and just do lunch.

my vote would be a place like beau-jo's...or maybe like breckenridge brewery? (they serve food i believe, and it would be closer to darrin) i get TONS of snowboarding in anyhow...
darrin- are you planning on making it a day trip?? or do you have family or friends over here that you would stay with for the weekend?
