Breckenridge Ski Resort - high alpine resorts, champagne powder, glorious sunshine, unbeatable service, great lodging and dining, historic villages,
Breckenridge’s long history with snowboarding began in 1985 when it became the first resort to host the snowboarding world championships. Today Breckenridge remains the top go-to resort with it’s top-ranked pipe, park, and snowboard programs.

Breckenridge has four mountains with terrain for any ability level and one 140-year-old Victorian town with shopping and dining for every taste–just think great snow, rich history, and vibrant nightlife.
Here are some things to keep in mind if your planning a day on the slopes.

Word of the Wise
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. At 10,000 feet, altitude sickness can hit hard and fast- proper hydration will help keep it at bay. Ski with a buddy. Even on a powder day!
Know your limits. Don’t let someone talk you into trying a run beyond your skill level. Space not speed. Slow down, Speed Racer! It’s not NASCAR. Watch your speed and keep your distance when on crowded slopes. Look up hill when trails merge. Seriously? Don’t make us explain. Obey all posted signs. If it’s closed, it’s closed for a reason… even if the snow is whiter on the other side of the fence!

Diet Tips
Do you get cold when skiing? Sometimes what you put in your body is as important as what you put on your body. Body heat comes from what you eat. When you are active, you burn calories, and that produces heat. So what are the best foods to eat to fuel your muscles and to keep you warm? Well, it may not be exactly what you think. Believe it or not, you need some fat in your diet!
Carbohydrates burn quickly and if you rely on them alone you’ll constantly have to refuel. Fats on the other hand, burn long and slow so they last throughout the day.

The muscles you use in skiing require you to replace energy as you burn it to work efficiently. The best way to fuel your system and to stay warm is a balance of 40% Carbs, 30% Protein, and 30% Fat. So at breakfast, go for the pancakes and bacon, not just the plain bagel.
