Hey i am planning a trip to Colorado next year. What time is the best in terms of good snow and powder?
Planning to stay 3 weeks.(tought last Februar first 2 March weeks) I am gonna rent a car and stay probably in Silverthorne. I allready got a Epic Skipass so i will ride Vail, Copper, Keystone and Breckenridge the most. But if anyone could recommend another resort i would be thankful.
Many thanks in regards
Rene

Steamboat Springs is know for their deep powder. It's also a fun town.
Crested Butte also gets some deep powder.
Hard to predict when it will be best, but I'd say January and early February.
You'll be happy where ever you go. I've written a lot about Breckenridge. You may find a post here that will be helpful.
