Many Colorado mountain passes close during the fall due to the heavy winter snow and wildlife migration patterns.

However, there are a few that stay open all year, providing great alpine access for snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, and snowmobiling.

One prominent example is Loveland Pass, just an hour from Denver: https://zurl.co/OhMK

Other ski areas may offer more varied skiing on a larger set of terrain, better amenities, etc, but no #Colorado #skiing location can rival the jaw-dropping vista of the East Wall at #ArapahoeBasin.

A second great day of skiing at #ArapahoeBasin today. High winds up top meant that three major lifts were shut down, but we still had fun on the front side with many laps of the Pali lift.

Believe it or not, my entire family is in the first photo. Spouse and Kid 2 are obvious, but Kid 1 and his friends are half-way down that crazy couloir in the background (for the second day in a row).

It was a great day to be Spacin’ at the Basin. #skiing #Colorado #ArapahoeBasin
