I'm in leadville right now then heading to Colorado springs then Telluride. Hoping to get a day of skiing inbetween all of that. I was thinking of going to Copper or Breck, but if you know what mountain is best right now lmk (snow quality, trails open, park).

copper has a little park with like10 features and a few options for top to bottom runs.... If keystone has the mini park set up on the back side that is pretty fun but you need to be pretty assertive in the lift line because it is full of thugs....I wouldn't recommend breck because it is not that good early season.

Would definitely stay away from Breck right now, unless you want to wait 30 minutes in line to ski one crowded ass run with no park.

Arapahoe Basin is real nice right now. Key's terrain is very limited but they have a dope park setup.

From what some friends have been saying and from the videos from their insta it looks okay, nothing too impressive probably pretty similar to A Bay right now.

Loveland's park is the shit right now. If you don't have a season pass to any of the places mentioned above I would go there. Cheapest and no crowds. However if money is no object Keystone or Copper would be next.

Can't speak for today but I was at copper yesterday when they opened up mine dump off their excelerator chair and we got a 3 good runs of pow after ski patrol skied their 5 or so runs to "make sure the snow was safe". Nothing like face shots in November
