We had our March 18, '2 days before the official start of Spring' trip to enjoy Copper Mountain planned since January. My wife Sarah would take a lesson and I would ski with my good friend Kevin. For years I had been telling her, because she was not a skier or snowboarder, about the perfect day. The sky so blue it makes you want to swim through it. Snow on the trees from the snowfall last night. A sunny, beautiful powder day--one of God's finest gifts to a guy like me. Well, it was handed to us and we have the sunburn to prove it.

I can't say enough good things about Copper Mountain. It is a joy to be there. We are SOOOOOO lucky to call Colorado home.
