I have a vacation planned for this Christmas break, we will be going to breck for about 5 days.

I recently heard that breck only has 15% of its runs open. Im just wondering if its worth it to head out there over the break, or just hold off until spring break.

Yeah, Breck has always been my dream place to ski, but not sure if I should wait until spring break or go next week.

well, if you think about it, they are going to try to open a lot more. mountains know that lots of people are going to come, so they try to open more trails for more $CASH$ so i guess you could check their facebook for updates

They're supposed to get a good amount of snow this week, so I'd wait and see I guess. I'm heading out there December 27th. I'm going no matter what though. If the skiing sucks, the partying is still definitely worth the trip.

If you wait you will for sure have 100% of the terrain open. I go every year during winter break and Spring break, and I have racked up better days in March. It is the snowiest month of the year for them.

just my .02

Go spring break. Its the best time to be at breck. Its the PERFECT temp its so high up that the snow doesnt get shitted on and doesnt get too hot so it makes the perfect blend.

Breck just got a foot of snow in 24 hours. With another foot today through tomorrow morning, with another huge storm headed in next week. Things are starting to clear up nicely in Colorado.

spring break breck protips: first fuck the gondola...ride the kinked double up and then lap singles line on Colorado or Rocky chair instead of waiting on 5chair. shits cashbro

or go in early april. spring break blows cause literally the entire state of texas is there, but around spring massive time is ideal. honkeys have cleared out and the weather is immaculate

Go during Spring Break rather than Christmas break, and make sure you stop into SlopeStyle while you're there. Sick shop and good dudes.

Best snow, shorter lines, and all the terrain should be open during Spring Break.
