Vail, CO

Seats: 26

$1195.00

 

Open your 2009-2010 ski season at the largest ski resort in America -  Vail! What more can you say?  Rated as  the number one North American ski Resort by the readers of most ski publications for 14 of the past 21 years,  Vail is simply the best.   There are 32 ski lifts serving the vast skiable terrain and seven back bowls.  One of them   - chair 20 -  serves as a route to your home at Vail, the ski-in ski-out Cascade Resort and Spa.  Located on the banks of the Gore Creek, the Cascade gives you 4 star accommodations including complimentary ski valet, two “on-site” ski shops, spa and boutiques.  You will also have complimentary shuttle service to the rest of Vail Village and Lionshead.  I am certain that all of you are familiar with  the famous nightlife and dining that is unique to Vail. 

For those of you who have not experienced Vail, it is big!  7 miles wide with 5,000 acres of skiable terrain surrounded by 12,000 foot peaks! You can expect powder as Vail gets an average of 350 inches of snow per year.   Vail’s base elevation is 8,120 feet with a vertical drop of 3,450 feet.  If that does not keep you busy, you are within a few minutes of Beaver Creek and Copper Mountain for a day of skiing in a neighboring resort. 

If you are not aware, this is a “kid friendly” trip.  Family participation is encouraged, so feel free to bring your child or grandchild.  If they are under 12 and stay in your room, you will pay the cost of their airline ticket only.  Ski School and lift tickets for them will have to be purchased separately.
