Grand Lake Nordic Center offers 35km of groomed scenic ski trails. One of our favorite trails "River Run" is parallel and crosses the Colorado River. We also offer snow shoe trails and a tubing hill. After skiing you may relax in front of a roaring fire and enjoy a cup of hot chocolate along with a scenic panorama view of Rocky Mountain National Park.
I raced at GLNC years ago, it was wonderful the course conditions, the beautiful setting. Best ever!

We offer guided snowcat skiing and riding for the powder addict. Our terrain consists of high alpine bowls, gladed meadows, rock bands, open chutes and gullies. The high altitude combined with good Northern exposure keeps our snow cold and light. Operating in the Jones Pass area with an operating permit of 2,600 acres, we have the powder, vertical and adventure for an epic powder experience. All seats include Safety Equipment (Mammut Pulse Beacons, Shovel, Probe, RECCO), Professional Guide Team (4:1 Guest Guide Ratio), Access to our K2 Powder Skis (Pinnacle 118 and PON200N models), Lunch catered by Rudi's Deli, and Craft Beer Provided by Steamworks Brewery at the end of the trip.

Voted Best Ski Resort in North America by USA Today readers & named Colorado’s Top Adventure Town two years in a row by Elevation Outdoors, Winter Park is Colorado’s favorite ski resort. Tucked away in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, Winter Park offers more than 3,000 skiable acres and is home to the legendary Mary Jane Territory. The Resort also boasts six other unique territories to explore, offering trails to accommodate all skill levels. Situated among vast wilderness of untouched and open space, Winter Park invites you to experience Colorado Unfiltered.
We came back after 4 years to give this place another go, only for 2 days, and we had a blast. Kids went to ski school to improve their skills while we cruised mostly the green runs. It is a well organised place and relatively easy to book lift tickets, gear and lessons online. Hope we can return in the future.

This was our first time to try Coca Cola Tubing Hill. It was a blast! There were three different paths to tube down (slow, medium, fast). Our young son was able to do this on his own too! You don’t have to walk up the hill neither. There is a magic carpet to take you and your tube back up the hill

Granby Ranch is one of Colorado's best kept secrets and great for that family getaway. Located in Granby Colorado, Granby Ranch offers 35 ski trails covering 2 mountains, six terrain parks, ski and ride school, rentals, and convenient ski-in ski-out lodging. Granby Ranch Grill at the base of the mountain features delicious food for the whole family.
We were at Granby for Spring Break 2019 after visiting Winter Park at New Years 2018. I can not tell you how vastly different the two areas are. If you are a beginner to intermediate skier, I would recommend Granby. There is enough terrain to keep you entertained and the lines were typically 5 minutes long to get up the lift. We have already bought a season pass for the 19/20 season as we are coming twice. The pass right now for kids is only $169 or the equivalent of a day at Winter Park. The parking is right in front of the lodge and the longest walk was about 5 mins. We did not take lessons but, the terrain is great to learn on as the trails are not overrun like WP. The cost is significantly less at Granby than WP. While lunch is expensive it is convenient and cheaper than WP. We stayed at Mountainside via RCI and it was ski in ski out. We had a blast at Granby Ski and loved it so much we are going back again at New Years and Spring Break. If you are a great skier you would probably be bored at Granby. I don't have any experience with lessons at Granby but, think you would have a better teacher/student ratio at Granby although WP had some awesome instructors.
