BUttermilk in Aspen, not sure if they are open that late though. Give copper a try, they have the best laid out trail system you can ever find, lots of greens and blues all together.

keystone, breck, vail, copper all have plenty of easy groomed options. Also check out cooper for easy stuff if they are still open.

I am going to colorado in mid april and am wondering which resorts will be open that are the easiest since i need to take it easy with a dislocated shoulder.


At that time of year, you need to be more precise about your dates than "mid-April". Most of the Colorado resorts are on national forest service land and have to shut on schedule dates. The destination business dries up and blows away on April 1 and Colorado doesn't have enough population to support many ski areas beyond mid-April.


April 6th:
Aspen Highlands & Buttermilk
Monarch
Telluride
Steamboat

April 13th:
Aspen & Snowmass
Vail & Beaver Creek
Copper
Crested Butte
Keystone
Winter Park

April 20th:
Breckenridge

Loveland runs into May
A-Basin runs into June
