General Comments/Likes

There are a few trails and areas of Breckenridge that I do like; the hike to terrain above the Imperial Chair, the steep runs off of the E Chair and the area to the far skier’s right off of Peak 10.
The town of Breckenridge is fairly interesting if a bit over built these days.
Favorite runs; Devil’s Crotch, Snow White, Mustang and Little Johnny’s.

Dislikes

Breckenridge, the ski resort that never fails to disappoint. The parking situation at Breckenridge sucks! It used to be that the one free parking lot was Gold Rush just a short hop on the shuttle to the Breck Connect Gondola, but this year the geniuses that run Breckenridge made Gold Rush a pay lot and moved the free parking way down Highway 9 practically to Frisco. It’s very disheartening to arrive at a mountain’s base only to turn away and drive several miles away. Otherwise get ready to shell out some some major jack for the privledge of parking at Breckenridge. The snow always seems poorer at Breckenridge. We skied great powder all day at Winter Park and then drove to Breckenridge the next day where we proceeded to destroy the base of our skis. Is it the notorious Breckenridge winds that strips this away? Save yourself the hassle of finding a place to park, go to Keystone, better terrain and much better parking.
