I love skiing Copper. It's closer that Vail and easier to get to than Breck, Keystone or Winter Park. But the best part is when you get there, the lift lines are the shortest in Summit County and the snow is always great. Even last year when some resorts had snow problems, Copper had great skiing the whole year. Since Interwest took over the parking situation kind of stinks, but there is free parking if you park out in the remote lot and take the shuttle. But the extra lifts and the terrain parks they added(for both skiers and snowboarders) makes the mountain a whole lot of fun!
Pros: Friendly, Great Snow
Cons: parking
