This Rocky Mountain Town Is Home to the Most Popular Ski Resort in the U.S.
"Winter Park Resort, which is one of the closest mountains to DEN (it's about an hour and a half west), rounded out the top five most popular ski resorts in the U.S. Powder hounds can expect to pay about $250 per day for lift tickets at Winter Park. However, the resort participates in the Ikon Pass, a ski and snowboarding network similar to the Epic Pass — it gives members access to 50 resorts worldwide (as well as other discounts) for $1,449 per person. Plus, if you'd like to hit Winter Park's slopes but want to skip the rental car, you can board Amtrak’s popular ski train, which provides seasonal service between the resort and Denver Union Station." - Alison Fox Alison Fox Alison Fox is a Travel + Leisure contributor.
