yes, but how many days is it good for? (3, 4?)

You get the price of 60 dollars for the entirety of the trip. So if you board Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri, it would be 240 bucks for all 4 resorts. I'll have to follow up on that one though.

All considering, I think it's a pretty reasonable price for Aspen

So in terms of lugging equipment, i'm assuming all of you have a snowboard bag, do you have a seperate bag for boots and such? I'm afraid of getting charged an arm and a leg for hauling shit out there.

eh. it's only a couple hours and we've never been to steamboat. for that price it's worth the drive. and when you think about it, it's the same distance as going up to WI...only you're greeted with powder and a real mountain.

It's worth it to drive to Steamboat

I'd choose Copper over Winter Park personally.

They are all different, but keep your bags to a minimum and keep the weight under 50 lbs. I have a ski/board bag that I load everything up to 50 lbs. and then have a carry on if need be. United jacks you for $15 the first bag and then $50 the next. When we went to Utah we used Southwest and they had two free bags up to 50 lbs. Nice.
