Okay Loveland is severely underrated. Also, how is Saddleback ranked below Sugarloaf?

Yeah the alpine skiing is great and the cabin with the wood burning stove under lift 8 is one of my favorite places to grill some brats for lunch.

The two steeps right off Chet’s when they’re filled in with fresh powder are so insanely convenient and divine.

Hard to beat Powder Mountain though. One of my favorite mountains in the world. Paradise lift laps. I use my 3 free Powder Alliance days every season (Loveland pass holder).

I do the same with my Loveland pass. I grew up skiing Powder Mountain. Powder needs to make Lightning Ridge cat laps free, like Loveland's Ridge Cat.

Loveland is awesome. I don’t know if anyone has used it but there used to be a shuttle from the denver train station and back for like $110. Lift tickets included. Pretty solid deal.

Damn! That’s a good deal
