It is acutally 15 miles north of Winter Park and 2 miles south of Granby along Hwy 40. We are staying at a condo there from Sunday night (11th) thru Thursday night (15th). I indicated we would like to go to Winter Park because we have been there and it is close. We want to ski 2 days in Silver Creek and 2 days somewhere else. If you can make it during the week to Keystone, then yes we will go there instead of WP. I would love to go to an Avs game, but we will probably need to be on the road by late afternoon on Sunday. Once again, we get in on Saturday (10th) about 9pm. That's pretty late so we may or may not be able to do anything that night. We will leave on Sunday (11th) for Silvercreek and be back in Denver at your place on Friday (16th). Then our plane back to Houston is early Saturday (17th) morning. If you can get away during the week to ski, that would be awesome. Thanks for all your hospitality. See you soon.

One day we could get 12 inches of snow, the next day it could be 80! I have a pass to Keystone, Breckenridge, Vail, Beaver Creek, and A-Basin. My pass does not include Winter Park (although I have a free lift ticket that I could use and go skiing with you.). My pass cost $300 and I get unlimited use (I have been 23 times this year-I think I got my money worth!). I do not know where Silvercreek is, but I will look. Do you mean Silverthorne by chance? If there is any way to go to Keystone, it would save Tracie and I some money. But, I understand that it is your vacation and if you go to Winter Park, let me know and price is no concern. This is how I rank the resorts as far as skiing: 1. Vail 2. Copper 3. Keystone 4. Winter Park/Mary Jane 5. Breckenridge. I have not been to Beaver Creek, but I heard that it was awesome. Even though I ranked WP fourth, it is still a great resort. The runs at Keystone and Vail are long and Vail is the largest resort in USA (5300 acres compared to 2000 for Keystone!). As far as atmosphere (night life), Vail is by far the best. Winter Park does not have much at the ski resort as far as night life (that I recall, but I have not been there much.). You have to go into town, which is small. Breckenridge is good for the night as well and so is Copper, but Vail is the best (I love Vail if you have not noticed!). Just let me know as far as plans. We have a busy March. On March 17, the day you leave, we have a wedding. On Friday night, we might have to go to the rehearsal dinner, but I do not know yet. Michelle and the kids are coming up in March also. Maybe she can come up at the same time. We always have a room available. I am looking forward to seeing you and Kristi. Let me know if you guys want to do anything in Denver. You can also go snowmobiling and snowshoeing as well. If you guys need any ski gear or accessories, let me know and I will check here for prices. Plus, you can borrow some of my gear on the days I can't meet up with you. You guys are going to love it here. You also need to come out in the summertime. It is so much better. I think my sisters and dad are coming out again for the 4th of July. We went white water rafting last year and Kim loved it. Looking forward to seeing you. Sean
