Keegan Burkhart, a 27-year-old credit management professional in Tampa, Florida, loves to snowboard. Unfortunately for Keegan Burkhart, Tampa doesn’t offer a lot of snowy mountains for snowboarding enthusiasts like himself. On the other hand, Keegan Burkhart enjoys having an excuse to visit his favorite state: Colorado. Snowboarders around the world agree that Colorado is one of the best places to snowboard. Here are Keegan Burkhart’s top 4 reasons to snowboard in Colorado: - Colorado has the highest lifts. As Keegan Burkhart knows, ski and snowboarding resorts in Colorado provide access to some of the highest lift terrain in the United States of America. In face, some of the resorts in Colorado can deliver skiers and snowboarders to elevations of 14,000 feet. Higher elevation means better views, better snow, and more challenging runs.
- Colorado has the longest ski and snowboard season. If you have a busy schedule like Keegan Burkhart, you’ll appreciate Colorado’s extra-long ski and snowboarding season – the longest in the entire country. Some resorts are able to open as early as midway through October. Colorado’s extra-long season is possible because of its extra-high peaks. Keegan Burkhart has found that Colorado resorts not only open early, but stay open late as well. Some resorts in Colorado stay open until late May or even early June!
- Colorado has the biggest resorts – and the smallest ones! As a frequent visitor to Colorado, Keegan Burkhart has found that Colorado not only has some of the biggest snowboarding and skiing resorts, but also some of the smallest. When Keegan Burkhart is looking for a larger resort – perhaps one that can provide thousands of acres of uninterrupted mountainside or enough space to take a vigorous hike without leaving the area – Colorado’s larger resorts have him covered. When, on the other hand, Keegan Burkhart is looking for a high-quality, no-frills, pure snowboarding experiences, he turns to Colorado’s smaller resorts.
- Colorado has the best skiing and snowboarding classes. While resorts in Colorado offer plenty of skiing and snowboarding classes for children, Keegan Burkhart points out that Colorado resorts provide ample learning opportunities for adult snowboarders as well. At Telluride Ski Resort, one of the most famous places to snowboard and ski in Colorado, the resort offers both private and group lessons for adults. While Keegan Burkhart believes that practice is what truly makes perfect, he would never hesitate to take a lesson from the pros. Even seasoned veterans can benefit from skiing and snowboarding classes.
