DEW Tour comes to Breckenridge

Well the Dew Tour hit Breckenridge this last weekend. The event is quite spectacular and the logistics of setting this up were quite amazing. Just being a local here observing the fleets of 18 wheelers coming into town with all the equipment, teams, atheletes, support crews, it was all quite amazing. They put up these huge flood lights for the night events that could be seen driving down from the Eisenhower Tunnel!  The music event at the Riverwalk Center was overwhelmed.  I think over 3,000 people showed up to listen and watch The All American Rejects

Construction at Peak 8

Peak 8 is a huge construction area this winter as Vail Resorts continues to build our new ski village. The cranes currently running are for the One Ski Hill Lodge construction. Eventually nearly all the existing buildings at the base of Peak 8 will be torn down and replaced with new buildings, including some retail, restaurants, lodging and more.

Crystal Peak Lodge

When Peak 7 finally opens this ski season you will be able to enjoy the super ski patios that have been completed. Crystal Peak Lodge was completed over the last few weeks with The Grand Lodge at Peak 7 still being built to the north. This will create a ski village atmosphere at the bottom of Peak 7 with amenities for you to enjoy. Note the Independence chair was lowered this summer to create ease of access from the new Peak 7 base. You can get directly to this area from town by getting on the Breck Connect Gondola.
