Copper Mountain gets an autumn dusting of snow

Colorado ski resorts are abuzz with the first significant snowfall of the season, and some areas are hinting that snowmaking could start soon. The snow was generated by a strong storm out of the Pacific Northwest moving across the Rockies in a winter-like pattern, and there could be more snow on the way.

Lodging in Copper Mountain: Condo or Hotel Room?

If you're thinking about your choices for lodging in Copper Mountain, consider the advantages of renting a condo over a hotel room. All of our Copper condos are slope-side, with easy access to the chairlifts and no more driving once you arrive at the resort. If you stay in a Frisco hotel, you’ll have to commute to Copper Mountain and it could take up to an hour from the time you leave the hotel, to the time you’re on the slopes.

After significant upgrades to the family and learning side of the resort the last couple seasons, Copper Mountain is focusing on improving the high alpine experience by easing access to the top of the mountain. One of the biggest changes is the replacement of the Storm King Poma with new T-bar to speed skiers and snowboarders to Spaulding Bowl, Upper Enchanted Forest and Copper Bowl.
