Good News…If You Love Snow

Don’t put away your snowshoes yet. Rocky Mountain National Park received more than a foot of snow Tuesday night, with more snow forecast. (This picture was taken Wednesday.) If you haven’t snowshoed at this park, you’re missing out – trails retain deep powder for days after a storm. My favorite? Loch Vail, that starts at Bear Lake.

And if you’re mourning the end of another ski season, this will lift your spirits: The Rocky Mountain Superpass is on sale – buy before June 1 for $449 and you get three free lift tickets for friends or family. The season pass covers unlimited skiing and riding at Copper Mountain and Winter Park and six days at Steamboat. For info, go to www.skicolorado.com or call 1-800-977-SNOW.
