Pali, Zuma and the Eastwall are still all open! I know other ski areas are closing or closed and that is because only the strong survive (elevation also helps!) There is so much going on around here I don’t know what to tell you about first. We have everything from endurance races to the annual Brew Pubs Festival to the amazing spring skiing! http://clubcolorado.com/2008/04/abasins_palis_ptich_vol_9_2007.htm http://clubcolorado.com/2008/04/abasins_palis_ptich_vol_9_2007.htm Tue, 01 Apr 2008 12:26:41 -0700 It's Springtime in Colorado, and there's no better time to be heading to the slopes for some great skiing, snowboarding, and Spring celebrations.

You know – that process where the edges on your skis are sharpened and the base is waxed. I hate that term “tune up!” It should be called mandatory maintenance.
