And so it begins. Examiners "Best of" series. This is where I either make friends, or make enemies. Nonetheless, the resorts and services mentioned are the result of a consensus amongst friends, both in cyberspace and real life.  So here goes.

 

Best Colorado Ski Resort: Drum roll: Steamboat

With a gondola for those cold days, varied terrain and Deb Armstrong as head of the ski school, you can't go wrong.

Best Terrain for Beginners: Hands down, Copper Mountain

Skiers in Union Creek have an entire section of green terrain all to themselves.

Best Colorado Ski School: Vail

Vail sets the ski school standards for other Vail resorts.
