Ski Cooper - A Family Ski Trip to Leadville, Colorado
First airplane ride and the first time skiing for our niece, Eliza. We stayed in Leadville, Colorado just a short drive from Ski Cooper. A great place for families and learning how to ski or snowboard. You cannot beat the prices either, and still enjoy the awesome snow Colorado offers!

Leadville Home Tour pt.3
At 10,152 feet, it's the United State's highest incorporated city. In addition to the rich mining history, the unique, creative, artistic paint schemes on the Victorian houses and other distinctive house designs create an eclectic array in this small town.
Leadville was home to H.A.W. Tabor, who became almost as famous for leaving his wife and marrying a younger woman as for discovering one of the richest silver strikes in the state. His second wife, Baby Doe Tabor, became the stuff of legends — there's even an opera about her.
Leadville was a very influential boomtown — it was almost named as Colorado's capital city. Well-preserved, Leadville has 70-square city blocks of Victorian buildings, all part of a designated National Historic Landmark District, along with 20-square miles of a preserved mining district. More than 50 buildings date back to the 1870s, including the Tabor Opera House.
Leadville is located in the geographic center of Colorado, on U.S. Hwy. 24, part of the Top of the Rockies Scenic and Historic Byway. The town's paved Mineral Belt Trail offers year-round recreation for bikers, hikers, snowshoers and cross-country skiers.
In winter, head out to Ski Cooper, a great and affordable family ski area; in summer, catch a ride on the Leadville, Colorado & Southern Railroad excursion. And don't miss the National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum, a truly fascinating look at the powerful industry and all the metals that helped build the state.
Just 20 miles from the town of Leadville at the base of Independence Pass is the historic Twin Lakes area, where you'll find world-class fishing and some of Colorado's most spectacular lake and peak scenery. Twin Lakes is close to the trailhead of Mount Elbert and the renowned Interlaken Hotel historical site. It's a true small-town American West experience.

Colorado Birthday Trip
My boyfriend, Tyler, and I took my bunny to Lakewood, Colorado for my 22nd birthday. My best friend, Summer, lives there and we are thinking about packing up and calling it home sometime soon. Ski Cooper in Leadville is the ski park we went to, and you will also see a short few clips from the Brewery in Golden and Red Rocks Ampitheater. Everywhere you turn in Colorado, there is a breath-taking view. Sorry most of the videos are taken from the car-- we put over 2,000 miles on my car in less than a week for my mini-vaca.

Ski Cooper Snowboarding - Powder Day 2019
Spent the day playing in a foot of fresh powder for my first time ever at Ski Cooper, near Leadville, Colorado. After 6 feet of snow fell in 7 days and another 12 inches the night before, this day turned out to be pretty great. A few crashes of course and I even got stuck a few times in the super deep stuff. A good day on the board...
The video starts out with a long and incredibly fun blue run down Homestake...
2:55 – Big Crash!!
3:30 – Bigger Crash, head fully under snow!!!!!
5:20 – Little crash.
5:45 – Get so stuck in the deep snow!
6:20 – Curse word!
7:18 – Met up with an instructor visiting from Eldora who wanted to ride with me down the black diamond run Pando, riding directly below the lifts.
7:35 – High five from the instructor cuz I look so good!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the tips!
What an unforgettable experience!!!!!!

Avy1 Hut Trip Leadville CO
Ryan and I took a trip from Austin to CO to get our Avy1 certification. Instead of just doing the certification at a resort, we decided to step up our backcountry experience and do a hut trip at the same time. What a solid weekend it was... not to mention the 40in of fresh that fell within the time we were there.
We did our AIARE 1 at a 10th Mountain Division Hut.

Day 17 of 365 day Life In Motion Challenge - Ski Cooper, CO
life2thefull.com Dr. Lance A. Zimney, DC Life In Motion Chiropractic & Wellness, Loveand/Fort Collins Colorado
Enjoyed a black diamond tree day with my little NO FEAR buddy, Luke. We closed down the last 2 lifts of the day to take full advantage of the great sunset, snow, empty chair lifts, and tree runs.
Ski Cooper is the perfect little resort for families, although it does have some fun & challenging little black diamond runs when the youngsters head to the lodge for snack or nap time.
Family video will be next.
