Hey, I'm new to Denver and really hope to get a ski pass for the coming season. But, I've heard so many horror stories about the traffic that I'm hesitating. I'm wondering if anyone is planning on renting a group ski condo, or would be interested in doing so. I'm broke, so I'd want to go in with a pretty big group.
Feel free to email or pm me: rteitelbaum@gmail.com
Cheers,
Rebecca

I climbed with Rebecca last Saturday in Clear Creek. She is way cool and personable.

If you're short on cash, you can always just winter camp up by Keystone. It's not really as cold as you would think. We go up friday after work, Night ski, and get drunk and pass out in the tent. Get up, have breakfast at The Goat, and go ride!
If you want location Beta just let me know.
BTW, I bought a sweet van for climbing and snow camping. Some of the resorts will let you sleep in your van/RV in their lots. Just another option.

Motivation and local knowledge goes a long way in avoiding traffic.

I don't want all my dirtbag skiing spots taken, but on the way up to Montezuma (just past Keystone resort) There are like 5 pullouts along the road. You can park and go back in the trees a little. They are nice and quiet and some have fire rings. I beleive it's NF land.
I think you can still sleep in your RV in the upper lot of A-Basin too.

In reply to: save some buckaroos - go get prone with a liftie.
That's your best bet and you could probably get by all winter without even buying a pass (or putting out).

Did you find something to rent? I am part of a group of 9 people and we are looking for one more. PM me if you are interested.
My profile says that I am from Chicago, but I just moved to Denver. Would love to meet others.
Anyone want to climb up in Clear Creek on Sunday?
