Copper is one of Colorado’s gems, popular with couples and families after superb skiing and good value accommodation close to the slopes. The village offers a good range of restaurants and a couple of bars that liven up at the weekend. The mountain is superb, almost split up into ability levels – green and blue runs can be found across the front face, where as the more advanced area is on the far left. For those who came for Colorado’s famous powder, then the back bowls are phenomenal – some days there is even a free caterpillar truck to take you to areas the lifts don’t access!
