Copper Mountain

Copper Mountain Always a Favorite...

It's clear why Copper is the #1 choice of so many Colorado skiers and riders. Naturally divided for all abilities, it offers steep terrain to the east, gentle slopes to the west, intermediate terrain through the middle and some of the best bowl skiing in the state.

Location: Copper Mountain is just 75 miles from Denver with 2,465 acres of skiable terrain and a village that feels more like a neighborhood. Copper's guests enjoy lodging steps away from the slopes, après ski entertainment, naturally divided terrain, exciting events and a welcoming, knowledgeable staff. Welcome to the Copper experience!
