Bucky's Favorite Line @ Copper Mountain, CO
Copper Mountain has been the mountain I've visited the most this season, because it got the most snow early in the year. It's not my favorite mountain Colorado because of the large crowds it attracts and I personally don't like skiing a mountain so close to a highway. But I will say this: Copper Mountain has some good terrain and enjoy skiing Copper because it's very easy to navigate even in their most difficult terrain.
My favorite line isn't hard to find and it's a good spot for people to learn the true meaning of alpine skiing. If u would click on the "Copper Mountain Map" just under the title, I would gladly show you where I'm talking about. Start from the Center Village and you'll see the "American Flyer" lift. Take that lift to the top which is located several hundred feet from the top of "Union Peak". After you get off the lift, strap up and follow the "American Flyer" lift line, "Alliroo Alley". Go down "Alliroo Alley" past the "American Flyer" trail. As soon as you pass the easy way down train that's perpendicular of "Alliroo Alley"; you should find a lane in the trees on your left.
This is a playground where you can find pow stashes of the masses if your there on a day after a decent 6 or 10 inch snow. Lean back float through the trees. If you follow the paths between the trees you can keep a steady speed down to the trail "Minor Matter" which you should take to the "Timberline Express" lift. That's one line I can hit all day and never get tired of it. Hope you enjoy it! Leave a comment if you tried it and got BUCK!
your man,
BUCKy
