Hey guys I've got a little dilemma and I could use some help/ideas.
I'm going to winter park jan 5-10 this season and I've got the invite to chill at vail from the 10-16. The only problem is I have no idea how I would get from place to place. Anybody from the area know about buses or any other kind of transportation that would allow me to do this?

thanks for the help

there is no bus that can take you directly to vail, but I believe there is a bus that can take you from wp to Silverthorne, and then you can take a bus from Silverthorne to Vail. not sure what its called though, someone here should know about it

The only way to meet a chick in Colorado is wait for a drunk texan to show up

hey ponyboy, go fuck yourself. Hood ain't got shit when your comparing it to any top colorado mountain. we got better snow, bigger/badder/better terrain, hotter babes, better skiers, better bars. better everything. so why don't you shove your poles up you ass and stop talking about shit you don't know anything about

best bet is getting in touch with a property management company and seeing if you can bum a ride in a non full van out to vail with gapers.

taxi service would be redic expensive.

vail pass is probably one of the worst roads in the world to travel on in the winter, i have been forced to pull over for hours on end by police in the pass, when i woke up with the officer knocking on my door, there was prolly 3 feet of snow around my car. i was asleep for maybe an hour and a half.

thats a pretty bad storm!  its rarely ever that bad though. try to hitch a ride with someone going back. i'm sure if you offer them a couple bucks plyus gas money they'd do it. oh, and you probably would have to smoke them up haha
