I'm breaking one of my ski vacation commandants, which is, "thou shalt not book a trip outside of 1 month", due to the fact that I procured a mid-April week of insanely cheap lodging in the Vail Village. Hopefully this doesn't come back to bite me in the posterior. I'll be able to get 6 days of skiing in, and since I'm staying right at Vail I'm thinking it makes sense to ski there twice, and then make it to 4 of these other areas for one day each.
Arapahoe Basin
Beaver Creek
Breckenridge
Copper Mountain
Keystone
Loveland
So my question is the reverse of the typical "which place(s) would you choose" and is a question of, which 1 or 2 places would you leave out of the mix? If it helps, I'm good with most terrain other than Warren Miller hucks etc..., but the woman stays on intermediates & doesn't do bumps/woods.
I'll have a rental vehicle, so suggestions regarding non ski day activities & things to do, places to see is welcome. Also, are there ways to save money on Vail Resorts properties other than buying online? If not, my strategy may be to wait until about Saint Patrick's Day & check Craigslist to see if people are dumping vouchers etc..., because those window prices are insane.
