colorado meet?? try again??

[mdwyer]

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 do a skiing day....or lunch

i have a season pass for copper and winter park..and could probably get a hold of a few more if you guys want to ride with your face a little covered up that way everyone could ride for free....

or something like beau-jo's would be good (really good pizza joint in idaho springs)

darrin you thinking about joining us?? that would be great to have you...its a little bit of a drive for you...probably what? like 4 hours for you??

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.

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...

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?

Jack,
I tend to agree. I get enough snowboarding in, and the snow is absolute crud right now anyway (at least in the Aspen valley), so I'm leaning more towards a lunch thing so we can totally geek out on VX talk.

Breck sounds good to me if the Denverites want to make it up there.
