hey i go to school in CO (leadville) and i'm getting an apartment in August in Frisco or silverthorne. Rent is probably going to be between $300-400. but its really cheap compared to most of the rest of CO, plus sliverthorne and frisco are smack in the middle of every resort. about 15min from keystone and a basin, 20 to breck, 25 to vail...
anywho the place im renting out is 2-3 bedroom apartments and right now i have onlt found one other roomate, we're looking for another if you wanted in.

yeah i know that's an option, i go to CSU currently and am debating whether to take one or both semesters off next year, though i could do part time at CMC and get some more credits out of the way, i don't have most of my basics.

thatd b a good idea. CMc has a lot of classes at night time because they know their student body likes to ride a lot.

Getting a job is easy. I have moved out to Breck at the end of Jan the last two years, finding housing at that time is tough. Plan on crashing somewhere for awhile while you look. I slept on the floor of a trailor for a month a year ago and slept in a recliner for a month this year. So if you find a place fast, props to you. Also don't look for a place with British people, they suck. Ask for G-man, I am sure he needs some one to live with.

I would only be looking for a place just in Jan and the first week of Feb. Would this be a problem or would it be cool to just pay for those weeks?
