Copper Mountain offers some great skiing. It is part of the Ski the Summit region and is well worth a day or two's skiing if you are staying in the more atmospheric resorts of Breckenridge or Keystone.  Copper Mountain is a functional, purpose-built resort, high on convenience, low on charm - rather like some French purpose-built resorts. The apartment blocks are surprisingly spread out, making the free shuttle-bus pretty essential. It's good for families, with superb children's facilities, spacious self-catering accommodation and quiet evenings. There's a fine sports club (free entrance to resort guests), with a huge pool and indoor tennis. Copper is a Ski the Summit resort, and has half-hourly buses to the others: Keystone, Breckenridge and Arapahoe Basin. The ski area is quite sizeable by American standards, and it is very easy to work out where you want to ski. As you look up at the mountain, the easiest runs are on the the right hand side and the terrain gradually gets steeper the further left you go. Two high-speed quads take you up to the tree-line, from where numerous runs head back towards the base. Further lifts serve the resort's open bowls. Height and an extensive snowmaking operation give Copper very good snow reliability. Good skiers will also enjoy the double diamond terrain of Spaulding Bowl, and there are great bump runs through the trees to the bottom of the two lifts on the left as you look at the mountain. Good intermediates have the benefit of the steepest runs also being the longest. These are in the Copper Peak section. The slightly less proficient can enjoy shorter, gentler runs on the middle section of mountain.
