Colorado

Colorado is our most-visited state throughout the years. Beginning in the 1980’s, it is the state where we really learned how to ski, after a painful, ill-prepared introduction on a hill in St. Louis. We began yearly visits to the ski areas of Winter Park, Summit County, Steamboat, Vail, Purgatory, Wolf Creek, Crested Butte — sometimes driving, sometimes flying, usually with friends or family for sharing lodging expenses. As the century turned, ski trips became much less frequent, but we discovered off-road, 4-wheelin’ old mining trails, and expanded our trips to the summer (incredible mountain wildflowers) and autumn (golden Aspen trees).
