that was so amazing is not comparable with A-Basin, this is a moderate resort
Copper Mountain review written Apr 25 2016 - 03:02 PM
Kokomo is the easiest beginner slope! I recommend doing that one first and then working your way to the left
Copper Mountain review written Apr 04 2016 - 02:13 PM
take lifts to the top of the mountain.. there are greens and blues and blacks there, ski down to lift at the mid mountain level then take lift back up to top. The bottom lifts get crowded. Also, these slopes are steeper than most- greens here are actually like blues at breck and keystone.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 17 2016 - 10:37 AM
I always love going to Copper, and think it offers some of the most diverse skiing in the Summit County region of Colorado. Watch out for the crowds at the base on weekends, but the other lifts move quickly and offer great skiing. The back bowls are certainly more challenging than anything at Vail resorts, except for the Lake Chutes at Breck.
Copper Mountain review written Dec 17 2015 - 11:40 AM
Hadn't been skiing out West for many years and still think Copper is the best in Summit Co. Skied Easter week-end, Sat. busy, Sunday no lift lines and great skiing from Super Bee and both American lifts. Be sure and check out the view from the timber ridge run.
Copper Mountain review written Apr 09 2015 - 07:27 PM
Copper Mountain is a great place to ski and less pricy than Breck, even the ski resort feeling must be better in Breck due to nicer architecture there. The ski terrain does not need to hide behind Breck in terms of size and altitude. The ski terrain in Copper is great and has a wide range of trails for any of skilled skiers and boarders. I enjoyed a lot the long runs on blue and black trails around the super bee and also the green ones for fast carving runs at timberline. I was staying two days and couldn´t run all of the trails. I am from Germany and I enjoyed a lot the powder at end of March, which slightly became slushy at the lower couple of hundred feet, but that is much common in the alps in that season. The copper trails starts at altitude of 9770 ft (2970m) at an altitude, where most of the ski resorts in the alps ends. That was a great experience and especially there was no artificial snow, like usually in the alps nowadays. A ski ranger told me, they didn´´t employ the snow machines since December, which is great to run on nature powder. Residents told me, that this season didn´t had so much snow in the Rockys either than usual, but this was not visible at all end of March, the snow cover was given everywhrere. Copper has a lot of muggle trails and also fun parks like halfpipes, ramps, board cross trails and tube pipes. During my stay was the US ski and boarders championships, but even so, the waiting times at all of the lifts was almost nothing. The trails were so wide giving you the feeling of being alone on the trails opposite of the alps, where you often feel crowdy on the trails. A great experience!

This was a great site to find. If you book even the night before you can save lots of money. We did the lift and rental combo and it was so easy. The mountain is set up very nice. Not all skiers come down to one area much like it seemed at Breck. The mountain was divided up so that beginners can stay at one area and more advanced can ski in other areas and not be trying to go around all of us new ones. Makes the whole experience more enjoyable. Would go back for sure!! Copper was great!
Copper Mountain review written Mar 20 2015 - 05:32 AM
2nd time at Copper, fantastic day. Groomed runs in excellent condition, spring crunch on the ungroomed runs. Cat skiing on Tucker Mountain with only a 10 minute wait for the cat on a Friday, way cool thing to do. Copper is a beautiful resort with beautiful trees in and around most of the runs. It's really one of the best in Colorado.

Great prices here at Liftopia.com even at the last minute! We were going to hit Breck, but didn't realize that their "online promotional prices" had ended 7 days before our arrival. That was enough to push us over the edge so we found liftopia.com and Copper Mountain and were so glad we did! We ordered our tickets 11:30pm the night before we went and our reservations were flawless. Here are my tips: - If you have gear and tickets go Copper Sports Center...we went in three rental shops before finding the right one - Pay for parking, especially if you want go to your car throughout the day..the buses are nice but take time - Pack along snacks/lunch unless you want to eat in the village..the mountain is so fun you won't want to stop to eat! We'll be back!

Copper Mountain has always been a favorite of mine, and this visit proved no different. Something about the runs, the views, and the overall layout that makes it one of the best mountains I've ever skied. Truly a great ski experience no matter what level skier you are. Buying my lift ticket in advance through Liftopia offered a very good savings, and was super easy. We skipped the free parking assuming it would be a long walk, and went to the paid parking section. You have three choices, and the prices aren't marked anywhere, so we picked the second lot called Chapel lot at Center Village, and it only cost $5.... not bad. The walk wasn't too bad. We went to the Copper Sports Center where the rentals, and day lockers are located, and gave them the printed Liftopia vouchers, for our lift tickets.... no issue or problems. Around the corner from the Sports Center were the ticket windows outside... so we could have gone to either location. From here you have quick access to the American Eagle and American Flyer Lifts.... there right in front of you.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 05 2015 - 06:54 PM
Took the trip out to Copper this past week, and man was I impressed. Everything at the Mountain was top notch and the foot of fresh wasn't bad either. The Mountain was super laid back and my friend and I rode right onto the lifts both days. Mid-week riding at its best! TIP - pay the $10 to park right by the Village, it is totally worth it and makes the whole experience that much more enjoyable. Terrain was great, snow was fresh and light, weather was a little foggy, but still great views all around. No complaints here, definitely going to make it back in the years to come. Copper is a seriously fun time.

Had a great day skiing on Mon 2/23, conditions were excellent.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 25 2015 - 03:59 PM
i have used this site for tickets several timers, really easy. Problem in turning my ticket to an actual pass to ski. No instructions, so stand behind someone waiting in line. Blondie says i have to go to the end of a queue after i waited and approached her station. I explained there was no queue when i first arrived and no instructions. She acted all super important and told me i had to to stand behind the 6 people that were now in queue. Instead, I walked outside and got my pass immediately from very nice lady with jolly ranchers. I came back in to explain she was wrong, she got all like she was important or something. She has a future in the Post Office or Disney. As for Copper, love to ski the mountain, good hills and EVERYONE ELSE easy to be around.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 22 2015 - 06:50 PM
Overall, using your Liftopia ticket at Copper is easy. However, if you are getting rentals with your ticket make sure your first stop is the rental registration computer. Having your rental form makes getting your lift ticket easier.
Copper Mountain review written Dec 28 2014 - 12:27 PM
Copper is my favorite mountain in Colorado! Iv been to all the big resorts and if you ride a snowboard and haven't been to Copper you need to check it out!They have the longest and steepest runs with best groomers iv rode on-if you want to go 100 mph no problem here, also prices are not stupid like vail,breck,keystone.
Copper Mountain review written Apr 14 2014 - 05:35 PM
I love Copper!!! Just returned from skiing there and can't wait to go back. I continue to be impressed by the great customer service and the fun atmosphere provided by the Copper staff. They REALLY seem to love their jobs which makes the experience even more fun for me. I am still a beginner and am enjoying the challenge of the green runs. Love the great prices and discounts on lift tickets!
Copper Mountain review written Mar 17 2014 - 02:17 PM
I skied with another beginner on the slopes. We discovered a NEW service Copper has begun.........FREE SKI TOURS for Beginners. These are led by COPPER AMBASSADORS A couple led our tour. They customized the tour to meet our time expectations b/c we had made plans to meet the more experienced people in our group for lunch at T-REX grill at 12:30. There were 2 guides and 4 skier's in our group. The tour began at 10 a.m. and finished at the T-REX grill right on time. We skied 6 runs. The couple gave us good information on how to navigate the slopes; some history about Copper, history of the area, some forestry identification, tips about getting on and off the lifts, etc. They were positively gracious ambassadors of Copper Mountain. I recommend this NEW tour for groups that have varying abilities of skiers. SKI TOURS are morning's at 10 am and afternoons at 1 p.m. Snowshoeing tours are also offered at 10 am and 1 p.m. Again, free! If we had stayed longer we would have done it. Very good experience.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 12 2014 - 02:48 PM
We had a great time with our 8 y.o. "advanced beginner". The terrain runs together nicely so she was able to explore and test herself in a very controlled and fun way. Fast lifts make for lots of runs. Near the Woodward/UnionCreek area was a little too busy for her, though, so we stayed up on Rendezvous and American Flyer. This was our 2nd year here. btw - one day we had hard snow and ice early in the day - the Copper staff and ski patrol were stationed on foot in obvious locations on the slopes reminding people to be careful and proceed with caution. I've never seen that kind of safety awareness/prevention anywhere.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 28 2014 - 07:49 AM
I had so much fun falling on my butt over and over again at Copper Mountain. All of the staff is super friendly and can answer any question you have. They also have a wide variety of runs so from beginner to expert you will have a great time :)
Copper Mountain review written Feb 21 2014 - 01:17 PM
Great deal, buying lift tickets thru Liftopia. Stay in East Village if you want to avoid the crowds and lift lines at Center Village. Superbee is a fast chair, Resolutionn had some fun runs, quick glade runs in Excelerator which is only a four minute chair ride. While the Liftopia purchase asks for specific names to purchase the tickets, we had only one person pick up seven tickets, and Copper never cared about IDs.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 02 2014 - 02:39 PM
Ski over by the east side of the mountain ( super B, Alpine, resolution bowl) if you want to get away from the crowds and stay off the beginner runs. Great snow and most of the lifts are high speed. Except the alpine. I have a pass at Loveland, but will def go back to Copper, especially with the deal I got frol Liftopia
Copper Mountain review written Jan 24 2014 - 08:03 AM
First time at Copper Mountain. Fantastic day with my son. The mountain was as good as Vail or Breckenridge. Access from drop off to the lift was the easiest of any mountain in Colorado. We felt there was fewer skiers or snowboarders on the lifts and trails compared to Vail, Beaver Creek, or Breck. Staff were very helpful. Lifts were the best in the area. Had a great instructor. Plan to ski at Copper Mountain every time we come skiing to the area...which we have been doing for the past 12 years.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 06 2014 - 08:33 PM
Get there wicked early, I had to rent my stuff and didn't get on the lift until 11, the lines were insane and big families kept cutting in the mess. It was irritating but the mountain was awesome! It was early in the season so the snow was OK but there are tons of intermediate runs and once you get past the big base lift lines the summit lines were virtually non existent. Thumbs up.
Copper Mountain review written Dec 20 2013 - 04:04 PM
Get the Lift Ticket and Lunch!!! What a great deal and the mountain was the best in the area.
Copper Mountain review written Apr 02 2013 - 08:13 PM
Head to union meadow if there is fresh powder, talk about fantastic tree skiing. The bowls here are great too, and obviously, you can't beat those lift ticket prices. The tow lift at the top is slooooow. They need to replace that thing or add another line to mitigate the crowds Staff is excellent, two awesome ladies were dancing there way through scanning tickets at central village. I would definitely go again, especially at the liftopia tix prices.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 30 2013 - 08:17 AM
I really did not believe this deal was real when I got it from Backcountry.com. Wow, I sure am glad I tried it out. Great savings on lift tickets to Copper Mountain. The weather was sunny and perfect. New snow and then it snowed again toward the afternoon. Runs were fantastic! I was so tired I could not walk up the stairs after. One of us was on a board and one of us on skis. I will be back to Liftopia and Copper Mountain next year and years to come.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 25 2013 - 08:19 AM
Amazing weekend in Coper Mountain... 2 days in a row, Did tons of runs, ca'nt move my body but I'm so happy. The best mountain that I have ride so far (I'm an East Coaster). Amazing deal for us, but I'm sure it worth every penny for the resort too since we went with a group of 10 (Paying full ticket) Keep doing this liftopia...super nice
Copper Mountain review written Mar 18 2013 - 06:04 PM
I had a great time with my son and grand children, and saved alot of money with lift tickets. The weather was great, the runs were great and not too crowded. The staff was very friendly and helpfull. The view was awsome. This is our fourth time and I would go again.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 16 2013 - 10:39 AM
It was great trip to Copper last weekend after getting up before the dump and enjoying 7 inches of fresh powder over the two days. I hadn't skied there in about 14 years and it was a great weekend. I was glad the lift tickets were reasonable compared to Keystone and Brenckenridge were wanting $110 to $129 a day. I will pay in the $70's all day at Copper instead and you should too. I have never paid over $100 a day but that is becoming more difficult.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 13 2013 - 08:58 AM
Buy tickets ahead of time and head for lifts above kokomo. Kokomo is very nice for beginners but it also has a number of beginner snowboarders and very small children that I had to constantly watch for so I did not run over them. :)
Copper Mountain review written Mar 11 2013 - 03:42 PM
Copper is a beautiful ski area with most runs surrounded by fantastic stands of pine trees and is especially suited for beginner and intermediate skiers, although there is plenty of terrain for the advanced as well. The back bowls were in great condition with plenty of new powder. I enjoy Copper and Breck much more than Vail which I believe is overrated and too expensive.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 11 2013 - 08:20 AM
I am actually beginner/intermediate. Due to a knee injury, I ski mostly greens but mix in some blues. I love Soliquoy and Roundabout for long, wide green runs where I can cut lose and ski. My grandchildren will be learning soon and I see the runs and lifts west of the West Village as a great family place to bring young children learning to ski. I'm putting together a family vacation to stay in that area of the resort where the little ones can learn in an uncongested area.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 10 2013 - 10:45 PM
No lift ticket specials available at Breckenridge or Keystone. Not through Liftopia nor anywhere else. Evidently these hills no Longer extend discounts. So we skied Copper and Abasin. Had a great time. Copper snow was fabulous. Powder on 3/4 Monday. Thanks Liftopia.mainder
Copper Mountain review written Mar 09 2013 - 09:27 PM
Skied Copper on 3/6/13 for the 1st time and had a great time, enjoying it every bit as much as Beaver Creek & Vail skied on preceding days. Copper was large enough that we were unable to ride all the runs in one day, and was surprised at the size and quality of Copper Bowl. With the Liftopia coupon ($20 lunch credit), by far this was the best value of our trip.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 08 2013 - 04:02 PM
We loved the mountain. I skied with a group of young boys who are intermediate. My tip is that if you are going to rent gear on a weekend, go EARLY, or rent before you get on the hill.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 06 2013 - 07:38 AM
Skied over last weekend (22-24 Feb 13) and fresh snow made the skiing fantastic. Plenty for beginners to expert. Get there by or before 8:30 and park for free in the Alpine or Far East parking lots and take an easy free ride to any part of Copper you want to go to. Free bus ride to return to your car at any time. Looking forward to hitting the slopes there again and soon!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 27 2013 - 06:11 PM
This place is awesome! We took a tour with Ambassadors Aussie Bob and Dr. Anne in the morning and they showed us all of the greatest blue runs. Later, we explored the blacks at the top of the mountain and had such a blast! The snow was fabulous as well. An added plus is that they groom a run at noon, so if you miss fresh (grooming) tracks in the morning, you can get them at noon. Great mountain, very friendly staff and a great price while using Liftopia.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 21 2013 - 06:04 PM
know which parking spot you need/want they vary from free to $20 Great mountain!!!!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 19 2013 - 08:40 AM
Accomadations good, but hottub down for 2 days. Village is nice and convenient. Close to slopes but lack of snow. Runs are good and variety of terrain. Front range is getting less snow year by year. IF you want snow go south or north, better and more snow
Copper Mountain review written Feb 18 2013 - 09:59 AM
Take the free Ambassador tour at 10. They will give some history, show you how to navigate the mountain and provide some really good tips on where to ski. Two off-duty ambassadors joined our tour and took us into Union Bowl afterwards. We had a great day on a fun mountain!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 18 2013 - 05:48 AM
The green runs were not much easier than the blues, I would not suggest bringing a first timer or a relatively new begginer to this resort. That said the resort, staff and mountain are awesome. One of the best layouts for a ski village, not too big not too small. The mountain was in great shape even though the overall snow fall for the year is below average. Had about 6 inches of fresh powder on our last day. We have skied here before and will be back again sometime.

Copper mountain was a great place to ski with many long trails. My best advice to give is to buy the lift tickets and ski rental gear in advance and plan on one day before to get your gear and tickets so you are not rushing and standing in lines the day you want to ski. You just arrive and hit the slopes.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 12 2013 - 07:17 PM
We really liked Copper. The mountain is arranged in an easy, medium , hard set up from West to East, which helped us decide more easily where we wanted to spend our time. Also, we highly recommend getting a food voucher if it's available when buying lift tickets from liftopia. We were so glad we did.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 10 2013 - 03:53 PM
Be aware that the back bowl is closed. I am, however, forever impressed with the grooming and comfort that Copper provides its skiers and riders. Check out Treble Cliff and Bouncer for sure. Have fun.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 07 2013 - 08:33 PM
Copper Mountain was everything I wanted from my first snowboarding experience. The staff and instructors were awesome! They were friendly, helpful, and fun! I have been skiing several times before this and Copper Mountain was definitely the best winter vacation by far!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 05 2013 - 12:13 PM
Great mountain for advanced beginners! Take a high speed chair to the top and ski from the top to the bottom on multiple challenging green runs. Tubing was a blast as well...book in advance and get a discount!
Copper Mountain review written Jan 24 2013 - 06:22 PM
Use the Free parking and shuttle. You'll walk less distance than paid parking. JJ's for table service lunch green chili pork chili is amazing. Lots of long blue runs with optional black segments. TimberExpress gets busy so start there in the morning and move over to SuperBee Express (6 passenger lift) when the crowds arrive. Lots of variety for everyone. CO needs more snow!
Copper Mountain review written Jan 23 2013 - 09:42 AM
Best place to learn was green acres. There was no line. We ate at cb grille which was in our condo building. The lady who rented us the condo, Marcella, was very helpful and we found our condo in the passage point building to be very nice and comfortable. Will definitely return to Copper and rent from Marcella again.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 15 2013 - 04:44 PM
This was my first time to Copper. As a newbie skier (I've skied a few times in my life) I found the green slopes to to have several steep places. I only skied High Point and Coppertone, and there were parts of Coppertone that were blue IMO. I fell down a few times and had to take it really really slow on those steep downhils. Luckily, it was during a Broncos playoff game so there were not a lot of skiers and boarders flying around me. However, the Liftopia deal I got was a good one and I will definitely use them again in the future.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 14 2013 - 02:21 PM
Copper mountain was great! The snow ,the staff everyone. If staying in Frisco area make sure you take advantage of the Summit Stage a free stage to the local ski areas drops you off about 100 feet to ticket windows.no driving no parking problems . Hope to get there again loved it!
Copper Mountain review written Jan 11 2013 - 02:45 PM
We just returned from a 3-day ski trip to Summit Co. and skied at Copper our first day. The Liftopia discount for the lift ticket was significant compared to our cost at the two other resorts: Breckenridge and Winter Park. Since it was our first time at this resort, we took the Mountain Host tour which was great. We had two hosts all to ourselves from 10:00am-1:00pm! They took us all over the mountain, staying on intermediate runs but pointing out the runs we could take for bumps. We so enjoyed this experience that we did the host tours at the two other resorts as well. Despite the fact that the whole area needs snow, we found Copper to have good conditions. The only negative was that we couldn't find parking slopeside and it was quite a hike to walk in our boots with skis from the parking lot to the ticket area.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 11 2013 - 09:34 AM
Actually I'm an advanced intermediate in that I can do anything but moguls. We skied at Copper on Jan. 9 and the runs were beautiful and wide and scenic. There was a lot of sapplings and stripped pines that made the runs less the perfect. Watch out for ungroomed greens (Soliliquy) that are truly blues.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 10 2013 - 02:13 PM
GREAT place for beginners and experts alike!!! The price is very reasonable and it's just small enough to keep large crowds and tourists busy at the more expensive ski resorts. There is a central hub with shops and decorations for the holiday season. Definitely check Copper out for a great day and some fun runs!
Copper Mountain review written Dec 20 2012 - 05:34 AM
We were there to watch the Nor-Am races. The mountain looked like fun so we decided to try it. Lots of terrain, loooong runs, great lift system. The ambiance is great....very friendly employees, nice alpine village at the bottom of the hill. We had a great time and will return. My tip is this: there are lots of little pay parking lots tucked into the village. You can park practically next to the lift that you want to ski. If you chose to park for free, the bus system is really efficient.
Copper Mountain review written Dec 10 2012 - 05:38 PM
Went to Copper Mt on 11/30/2012 and WOW this place is great for early season skiing. I am from VA so our ski season lasts about 5 weeks these days so the long groomed runs of Copper Mt were a welcome sight. Fast lifts all over the mountain, broad groomed runs with little traffic and a large amount of varied terrain. I bought the demo package and it is TOTALLY worth it! I skied the whole K2 AMP line and exchanged all day with no hassle. If you get hungry the village is at the based of the lift and they have a broad range to choose from, if you want a muffin and coffe they have that, want a full out dinner there a place for that! THe trails are great and while this wasnt a POW day i still enjoyed skiing for 7 hours straight!
Copper Mountain review written Dec 02 2012 - 11:02 PM
Though Mother Nature is not cooperating this year, Copper is holding up better than most of the other ski areas around. Way better than Vail!! Wish they didn't charge for parking for half full lots this late in the season, but the people are the friendliest most helpful of the many CO ski areas I have visited. From guest services to rentals to lift operators, all showed a courteous and friendly attitude. All staff were helpful and it was a satisfying experience with two young kids.
Copper Mountain review written Apr 12 2012 - 11:03 PM
Oh, and thanks liftopia and Copper for the deals! I paid $84 for the lift ticket and $20 lunch combo. Copper lift tickets (while still expensive) are a much better deal than some of the other resorts and they actually reduce the price for multiple days of skiing unlike Vail resorts which is almost the same price per day.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 29 2012 - 02:56 PM
We got the $20 lunch and lift ticket option at Copper Mountain. We boarded four parks (Eldora, Copper, Breck, Keystone) from 3/20 - 3/23. The snow at Copper was the best of the four this late in the season. Breck was good as well but don't bother with Keystone this season! We ate at JJ's in the east village which had excellent food and service at a very reasonable price. We liked it so much we returned for happy hour. They have an awesome patio and it's much less crowded than the center village. I read another review that said the food was overpriced at Copper but I found it to be a good price for the food served as opposed to Breck where you feel like you get raped if you eat on the mountain. I paid $5 and change for a 20 oz gatorade at Breckenridge - ridiculous. If you go to JJ's I highly recommend the prime rib sandwich (Titanic dip). Their portions are big and the food was delicious!

Look for the Cat skiing on the backside of Copper Peak / Copper Bowl. We accessed it from the Storm King lift or the Rendezvous lift, then take the long easy Otto Bahn trail around the backside to the base of the Mountain Chief chair, the cat rides are FREE but close at 1:30, we "missed it by that much" but it looked like a blast.

Everything went smoothly over spring break. My first time at Copper. The atmosphere is very laid back compared to Breck or Keystone, they are very easy going. we had kids in ski school, and you can check them in at 4pm the day prior and you get your equipment in the same process (diff than keystone.) Recommend going a littly early, as the ski storage closed PROMPTLY at 5pm. It took us just over an hour to get them checked in and all of our equipment, so the first day we had to load up the skis and all and take them home with us. After that we checked them each day and it went great.

We keep coming back to Copper, despite other choices in Summit County. Terrain for all levels. Good deals on Liftopia - we saved over $30/day vs. window prices. Skiied w/o 3/15 - below freezing in the morning, above freezing in the afternoon (mashed potatoes) but still enjoyed - people are great!
Copper Mountain review written Mar 17 2012 - 03:54 PM
I have skiied all over Colorado, and I LOVED Copper Mt. Great place for all skier's. What I loved is how the mountain is set up by your level of skiing. Be sure to get up Kokomo and stay on LumberJack if you are a beginner to bypass some of the ski school. TimberLine Express was nice going down Siloquoy. Long runs and look for G "Groomed". Especially since snow is down this year. I didnt have trouble with tickets. Just had to take off old and put on new one each day. Take some scissors to clip them off each night. Really they should print for the amount of days you purchasaed. Would be easier:-)

Loved the lunch option. Good deal. Copper is an awesome mountain. The folks there keep things in control so all can ski safely and have an awesome time. Trails for all abilities. Loved it!
Copper Mountain review written Mar 13 2012 - 05:20 PM
Was there last week with 2 others thru great deal on LIFTOPIA! Highly reccommend both Copper & using LIFTOPIA. Stayed/skiied at Steamboat with no deals, day skiing at Copper & Vail (no deal). My opinion, this Mtn is a sleeper not to be missed, I felt skiing here 20 years ago that it was better than Breck, Keyston & A-basin. I know, i'm from out east but never forgot how good it was here.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 12 2012 - 06:59 PM
Very new to skiing and found even the greens to be too steep for me. Have heard that Breck is better for newbies, but haven't been there.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 11 2012 - 07:57 PM
We started going to Copper last year, and for the second year in a row it was my favorite place to ride. We actually went two days in a row this year because of the great deal that we got on Liftopia. Copper has great advanced/intermediate runs, plenty of bowls, and the lift lines we're short compared to Vail and Breck which we also visited on this trip. Parking in the paid lots was also much cheaper than Vail.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 25 2012 - 03:26 PM
Copper as always was great. However, I purchased 4 days of lift passes for 2 people. The passes did not indicate which ticket to use for which day. They were all dated the same. This caused a hassle in the lift line as I had the wrong pass attached to my jacket. The attendant had to scan all of my passes to determine which one I should be using for that day. This is definitely an issue the Copper should correct. I haven't ever experienced this at any other resort when purchasing multiple day lift passes.
Copper Mountain review written Feb 24 2012 - 05:37 PM
Copper has always been my favorite place to go - so keep that in mind! The staff are the best, friendly and laid-back. The ski patrol are always friendly and helpful. The prices for food are a little cheaper than the other places around the area, but still more than you might expect to pay outside of a resort location. The terrain is awesome - this year, even with weaker snow fall, we were lucky enough to ski the limited open runs in the bowls. The snow and the difficulty are just right for everyone though.

Bought 2 adult tickets with the lunch credits. GO FOR IT. Im really glad I did. My son, daughter, and I had a great day skiing on an absolutely gorgeous Friday, Feb 17th. (My daughter is a junior so I just got her ticket at the window.) You really want to go thru Liftopia because I got a slightly reduced ticket plus (2) $20 lunch credits. When the cashier said the lunch total for 3 average lunches was $53+ I did a double take. I live in Colorado and know that it is standard highway robbery to eat on the mountain, but I didnt buy a damn 12-pack for crying out loud?!!!! I had one beer and my kids had soda. 53 BUCKS????? A total rip off for what they callled lunch. But, the pill was a lot easier to swallow with $40 in credit. Lunch cost me 13 bucks, less than 3 Mc Death meals Because of Liftopia I had a happy meal, and not a completely disgusted one. The food? edible, but certainly not spectacular. Another tip. Try the jalapeno bacon cheesburger mid mountain. Yes, I was skeptical, but the Jalapeno dusted bacon was actually good.

We skied Copper Feb. 8,9 2012 and I liked the quality of blue runs and it seemed to have more tree islands than Arapahoe Basin and Keystone (which we skied earlier in the week). Very few lift lines I might add. It was mostly packed powder and the last day we had 4 inches of fresh powder and very little grooming. We crashed alot since we're not used to skiing in powder and mainly stuck to more green runs. The green runs were pretty challenging I thought and could be considered blue at other resorts. The free parking lot was a hassle since accidentally we got on the wrong bus the first day and missed precious time. Too far to walk. You have to take the shuttle everytime. Also I give their customer service A+. I accidentally left my snowblades by the bathroom at the parking lot, found them the next day luckily. Since I had my phone no. on them one of the staff called my home phone to report them lost. I really apprecitated that!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 16 2012 - 07:27 AM
Was at Copper Feb 10-11. Fresh powder and absolutely gorgeous full day on the 11th. Had an amazing time. I agree that the greens outside Kokomo and Lumberjack lifts are a bit challenging but it was great for me to since I'm a notch above beginner's level. Beautiful runs, lots of variety, quick lifts (except Kokomo and Lumberjack; those are SLOW and stop multiple times...) We ate bfast at Endo's which makes amazing omelets!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 13 2012 - 07:54 AM
I skied Copper on 2/9 we had great snow and it was snowed . The best tip is to walk in shoes and rent a locker for all day for 6 bucks. you can get in out as often as you want. This 4 time here and will return.

Copper is our favorite! We skiied 2 days, one was sunny and beautiful nobody on the mountain and the second day 2inches of snow--- beautiful! At the end of the day we like to relax at Jack's bar. Can't wait to go again! We have been coming to this area for the past20 years. We ski the blue Runs!
Copper Mountain review written Feb 10 2012 - 03:41 PM
Great mountain with long runs. We were there Feb 5-7 and there were no waits to the lifts and hardly anyone on the slopes. I loved the mountain as a boarder, but had a beginner boarder with me that had problems with any greens that were not off of lumberjack or kokomo lifts. Any greens outside of these lifts were too challenging. We stayed in Snowflake and loved the access to bar/restaurant/rentals.

This was my first trip to Colorado and skied Breckenridge and Copper. The area is beautiful. I preferred Copper for the more challenging intermediate runs. The slope is more sheltered from the wind than Breck and the views are more spectacular.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 30 2012 - 06:59 AM
Copper is a lot of fun with ski runs for every level. But I don't recommend riding the long lift American Flyer in cold, windy weather. BRRR! Really, why can't they put in a gondola like everybody else in Colorado?
Copper Mountain review written Jan 24 2012 - 06:40 PM
Our family skied January 16th - 20th 2012. It snowed almost everyday we were there which made for awesome skiing. (except for the runs at the very top of the mountain, they were very icy.) The mountain has a great mix of runs for groups traveling with a mix of people who ski at different levels and also groups with boarders and skiers like ours. If you are a beginner, then you should stay on the right side of the mountain (lifts: lumberjack, kokomo, and american flyer) Our family usually skis at sunlight and cresteD butte, but copper is definetly my favorite, especially with it being 2 hours closer to us from kansas. (only 75 miles from denver) We NEVER had to wait in lift lines and the mountain was not cluttered with lots of people. I would definetly recommend ski in ski out here. We stayed in Lewis ranch which was steps away from lumberjack lift which made us very spoiled, but I wouldn't do it any other way. it is such a pain to carry your skis to the bus. We found a great deal on one of the summit mountain properties (almost a third of the price which was on special during this week) and also used liftopia and saved tons of money on rental and lift tickets. Definetly recommend this mountain over any other. Hope to make it our family tradition for my son who is 6 months old.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 20 2012 - 09:15 PM
Love Copper, don't like having to pay to park is my biggest issue. There is plenty of free parking for a free shuttle in but we paid to park instead. Shuttle is too much of a pain when it is at the opposite end of where we were skiing. Kokomo green is as easy a green as your going to get. Some of the runs should have been closed because of not enough snow and weeds and stobbs sticking up. Great for kids with all the extra activities they have for them to play. My husband is a boarder and he loved the terrain parks. We were there Jan. 12-14.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 20 2012 - 01:44 PM
Free parking OK, but you have to shuttle in. Small pay lot at Center Village, $20 on weekend and holidays and $10 on weekdays, but close enough to Center Village if you want to leave stuff in your car and not get a locker.. Skied Jan 17 & 18. Little thin on snow on runs without snowmaking, but snowmaking runs good. Runs at the top and bowls not open yet due to lack of snow. For intermediates suggest Timbeline Express lift or Super Bee. After skiing, try Pizza Carlo on the east side of the of center village. Had a large single topping hand topped pizza (18") and pitcher of draft for $25. One of the best pizzas I"ve had anywhere.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 20 2012 - 06:36 AM
Had family there on Sunday; conditions were great. Liftopia tickets worked out great! Parked for free at the free lot and took the shuttle to the UNION (West Center) and walked onto to the lift. (Total Time from car to Lift (15 minutes - perfect timing) Highly recommend that route as carrying skis was at a minimum for the little ones. Snacked at Center ate lunch at West and never saw East as we are not there yet :) Ambassadors in Blue Coats for Copper were very helpful and large electronic lockers for $10 bucks at West worked out great given I was in there 5x during the day ! Understand there maybe a baggage check at Center and may try that next time ....... Departure buses were running every couple of minutes ...Awesome Day!!
Copper Mountain review written Jan 18 2012 - 07:53 AM
Had a great trip. Buying the tickets were easy online. Easy to pick up right there on site at Copper. We skied Christmas Day. Not everything was open, but we did have a lack of snow, so we expected it. Will buy tickets again on this site.
Copper Mountain review written Jan 04 2012 - 11:01 AM
Excellent mountain. We skied around Xmas break 2011, which was actually pretty low in terms of snow. there were some trails that had little fir trees popping up through the snow, i am not sure there was more than 10 inches coverage in some areas. but not their fault. most of the trails were in good shape, but obvioulsy more snow would have been ideal. I think it is an excellent ski resort. best of the 4-5 I checked in the area.

Had a great time at Copper and thanks to this site for getting us a nice discount! My college aged son even hit the half pipe with his board.
Copper Mountain review written Dec 19 2011 - 08:24 AM
Your service is GREAT, but I do snow plowing on the side, and my neighborhood got hit again Sunday night, so I had to remain at home and plow, and plow somre more. Wish I could have plowed it up to Copoper to add to some of their runs. But it will come.
Copper Mountain review written Dec 07 2011 - 02:22 PM
Can't understand why Copper wouldn't open Union Creek first--came with beginner skiers and the easiest part of the MTN was not open--one would think the easiest part of the MTN would be covered with snow and easy to open--Copper needs to let everyone know BEFORE you buy a lift ticket that there are NO runs open for beginners. The slopes off of American Flyer do not qualify as beginner slopes--they would be black/blues on the east coast.
Copper Mountain review written Nov 25 2011 - 06:14 PM
After living in Colorado for 14 years, Copper Mountain is still our favorite place to ski and snowboard, we ended up at the Lodge at Copper, next to the American Flyer lift that accesses the easiest terrain to Expert. Terrific ski in-out location, you can drop your equipment off and head to the Center Village for ski apre cocktails.*Copper Mountain Lodging does not promote the older buildings, you have to ask and make sure they have been updated. Best bargain around..
Copper Mountain review written Oct 31 2011 - 12:40 PM
My GF and I skied copper in March and the weather was perfect, nice sun shine and 5 inches of fresh snow made for a fun morning until all the fresh stuff got tore up. She is a beginning skier and we hung on the greens, of which there are plenty and we had a good day. I skied the blues and they were a bit more challenging but not too much for her if she took it slow. The black diamonds here are plenty stout and the bowls get your hear racing. I skied union bowl and let me tell you when you get to the top of that and look down and the wind is blowing 25 mph you get a bit excited. A few too many bumps for my taste but maybe I am getting to old to ski them all day? 36 yrs old. I like bumps as much as the next guy but would like some of the blacks and double blacks to have some nice steep smooth surface for high speed cruising without launching…… Nice place, friendly staff
Copper Mountain review written Jun 15 2011 - 12:22 PM
Excellent! If you are traveling with beginners take American Flyer lift up instead of American Eagle. American Eagle services some steep blues where a true beginner can struggle early. We enjoyed running Timberline Express which services a nice green, Soliloquy, and some nice intermediate runs so our group could be together. Found plenty of good tree skiing under American Flyer and still could re-join my friends at the end on Timberline Express. On the other side of the hill, Resolution bowl was a good option when the wind picked up! Copper is Great! But no drinking water after the base to refill your bottles. Love it!

This was my first stay right on the mountain and it was definitely the way to go. No driving around. My daughter and I just walked to took a shuttle to the night life. Everyone was friendly and helpful from restaurants to the Village Rentals and Shops.
Copper Mountain review written Apr 08 2011 - 06:58 PM
Great mountain. If you are with anyone who is at a lower level than you are you can still meet up for lunch, etc., just study the map and lifts and ask the friendly people who work their for suggestions. I was with a green skier and the way the mountain is divided up really suited us both just fine, and she didn't suddenly find herself "over her head" by miss reading a trail sign...we could connect easily and I could ski a bit with her...and their were several green slopes that were really nice because I could zip off into the trees and still be there with her...really great experience. PARK IN THE FREE PARKING AND SHUTTLE OVER!!!
Copper Mountain review written Mar 26 2011 - 12:48 PM
Too much fun! Love the mountain and the way that it is naturally divided into abilities. My husband is a "black" skier, I am a "blue" and the kids are both "blue" and "green".I agree with a previous reviewer that using the FREE parking is both quick and EASY and we really never waited over 3 min. for a bus and that was the most we waited...delivered to the "door"...couldn't be better. Nice, helpful employees (always a plus). So glad to hear that you are replacing the High Point lift...that was the only negative I WOULD have to say, but since you are replacing it...I will not comment! For those of you who have fairly new skiers this is the best place to both learn and grow...Kokomo is a nice length and width and not scary at all. The Luberjack lift offers access to the widest trail I have ever seen, and a nice step up from the the access from Kokomo. We will probably make Copper mountain our permanent ski mountain...it is the first time we have been there, but not the last! I am calling my level green because I want those of you who are beginners, or green to read this.

Copper was great for our family. This was our second year of skiing for our children ( ages 9 & 11 ). We spent all our time on the green runs which didn't bore my wife and I(intermediates). The lines were minimal (5min). The kids improved greatly. Next year we will be skiing the blues as a family! I wish we could pick up all our Liftopia tickets at once (4 days, 4 ticket window trips).

Copper is a great mountain for families. There were plenty of good greens and blues. The lines were not long and the runs were not congested and this was at Spring Break. I would highly recommend this mountain to all levels of skiers.

You can't go wrong riding at Copper. It's never super crowded and the mountain offers terrain for everyone to enjoy. Good chill atmosphere on the mountain and of course at the bars. The food is great, especially at JJ's, kick ass food and good deals on beer. If you are looking for great conditions and a resort that's run by polite professional staff, then Copper is the place to go.
Copper Mountain review written Mar 06 2011 - 07:41 PM
After skiing at Loveland, Copper is a Class A resort. Ditto to all of the information already posted, but I found the most pleasant thing about Copper is that most of the lifts were detachable, so they slowed down for loading and unloading and then sped up at twice the speed of Loveland. I also like having the safety bars on the lifts for resting your ski's on plus making me feel safer when riding high above the ground. I was also impressed with the food choices and the prices were remarkably reasonable. I give Copper Mountain 5 Stars.*****
Copper Mountain review written Mar 04 2011 - 03:18 PM
Copper mountain is an awesome mountain, the naturally divided terrain has the good blacks on the left side, the intermediate in the middle and the green on the right hand side.This natural divide allows the beginer and intermediate skiers or boarders to stay in the middle and leaves the blacks available to ski or ride without dodging beginers. The kids ski and ride school on the green side has excellent instructors. The access to the back bowls via Storm King "a poma lift" is awesome. Spend the day back there if you can.

The Red Bulls have played many statement games during their franchise history, and more often than not the statement told fans, "We're not a very good team."
Saturday night, however, that changed. The 4-0 thrashing of the first-place Montreal Impact at Red Bull Arena had to send a chill throughout Major League Soccer.
The fear? The Red Bulls just might be as good as their roster indicates.
Since their inception, the Red Bulls have boasted some of the greatest players in MLS history, players who in their prime won World Cups, European Championships and club titles at the highest level. Yet all that talent didn't translate with the Red Bulls into anything more than a couple of conference titles and a loss apiece in the MLS Cup and U.S. Open Cup finals.
This year could be different, but surprisingly, it's not only the talents of their established stars that have been the difference, but the play of a couple of hardworking midfielders who are not in the spotlight.
Eric Alexander was acquired Feb. 2 from Portland for allocation money, and Jonny Steele arrived nine days later from Real Salt Lake for a conditional Supplemental Draft pick.
They have been the steals of the season.
Although their statistics don't tell much — Alexander has two goals and two assists and Steele has two goals and three assists — they are becoming an integral part of the offense, which will loosen the marking on Thierry Henry.
Alexander, 25, played 39 games with FC Dallas in 2010 and 2011 before he was traded to Portland for former Red Bulls' first-round draft pick Jeremy Hall. With the Timbers last season, Alexander played 30 games and picked up six assists.
He earned a starting spot with the Red Bulls in the second game of the season and has been in the lineup ever since. Though he settled for doing a lot of the dirty work on the outside, tracking up and down the field, he didn't translate that effort into the offense until just recently.
In the 2-0 victory over the Houston Dynamo on June 30, Henry thought Alexander, a converted central midfielder, was the best player on the field, moving into the attack and pushing the play forward.
On Saturday night, he scored the first goal of the game when he dribbled through three players and beat Impact goalkeeper Troy Perkins low to the left side of the net.
"I've been saying all year, I know for some reason Eric's been getting some stick from whether it be the media or the fans about not playing good, (but) to us he does very well," Red Bulls coach Mike Petke said following the game. "We're very happy with Eric's play, and tonight, I think, was a great example of what he is capable of, and I hope that many people don't forget that he is not an outside player. He's someone that we've converted to it, and I think he has adapted very well, and tonight he showed what he could do."
Steele, 27, kicked around with a number of minor-league clubs in the United States before signing with Real Salt Lake last season, where he scored two goals in 28 games.
The Northern Ireland native also had a quiet start to the season, but his consistency and work rate couldn't be ignored and he earned a starting role on the left side of midfield.
The Red Bulls, who like to spray the ball wide to open the inside for their attacking players, have had that kind of combination before.
When Joel Lindpere and Dane Richards were at the top of their game, so were the Red Bulls. But Richards, for all his speed, was too inconsistent and his crosses too inaccurate. And if you took away his long runs with the ball, there wasn't a whole lot else to his game.
Lindpere, like Alexander and Steele, didn't cause anyone to look twice when he was signed, but he quickly became a fan favorite with his tireless work on and off the ball. He was arguably the team's MVP in 2011, when he had seven goals and seven assists, but the Red Bulls didn't want to give him a raise as they retooled the team and they shipped him in the offseason to the Chicago Fire, where, along with former Red Bull Mike Magee, he has helped rejuvenate the club.
So the Red Bulls have a couple of young, inexpensive players who combined are making approximately two-thirds of Lindpere's 2013 salary. And the savings could be earmarked for a third designated player this summer.
More importantly, Alexander and Steele are quickly becoming bigger factors in the offense, and that will only make the Red Bulls a scarier team to face the rest of the season.

Dortmund is giving him the No. 10 shirt worn last season by Mario Goetze, who left for Bayern Munich. ... Schalke signed 18-year-old midfielder Leon Goretzka from Bochum of the German second division to a five-year contract. ... Peru defender Luis Advincula joined Brazilian club Ponte Preta on a one-year loan from Hoffenheim. ... Belgium striker Igor de Camargo is returning to Standard Liege after three seasons in the Bundesliga with Hoffenheim and Borussia Moenchengladbach. De Camargo, 30, played for Standard Liege from 2007-10. ... Hoffenheim signed striker Anthony Modeste from Bordeaux to a three-year contract. ... Schalke defender Sergio Escudero left the club and is expected to sign with Getafe. ... Carlos Tevez has been cleared to start the season with Juventus after having his court-ordered punishment rescinded in England. Tevez still had to complete the majority of his 250 hours of unpaid community service that was imposed after a string of driving offences before leaving Manchester City. But the terms were changed by a court and Tevez will instead pay a fine. ... Udinese striker Antonio Di Natale, who scored 23 goals last season, extended his contract with the club through 2014-15. ... Inter Milan signed striker Mauro Icardi from Sampdoria. ... Juventus completed the signing of Italy defender Angelo Ogbonna from Torino. ... Napoli completed the signing of striker Jose Maria Callejon from Real Madrid to a four-year contract. ... Roma signed 17-year-old defender Tin Jedvaj from Dinamo Zagreb to a three-year contract. ... Striker Fabrizio Miccoli left Palermo to sign with Lecce. ... The Spanish league begins Aug. 17. Defending champion Barcelona will host Levante and Real Madrid is at home to Real Betis on opening day. The rivals will play each other Oct. 27 at the Camp Nou and March 23 at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. ... Midfielder Asier Illarramendi became Real Madrid's sixth most-expensive transfer in club history after signing a six-year contract with a $42 million transfer fee and another $8 million in taxes to secure his release from Real Sociedad. Only Cristiano Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane, Kaka, Luis Figo and Ronaldo cost Madrid more, and they were all stars when they arrived. ... Real Sociedad signed striker Haris Seferovic from Fiorentina to a four-year contract. ... Atletico Madrid signed Argentine international Martin Demichelis to a one-year contract. ... Malaga signed striker Roque Santa Cruz to a three-year contract after impressing last year on loan from Manchester City. ... Real Madrid extended defender Nacho Fernandez's contract four more years. ... Barcelona agreed to loan 19-year-old forward Gerard Deulofeu to Everton for one season. ... Paris Saint-Germain sporting director Leonardo resigned a little over a month after he was handed a nine-month suspension for shoving a referee following a home game. ... Shakhtar Donetsk signed Argentine forward Facundo Ferreyra from Velez Sarsfield to a five-year contract in a transfer worth $9 million. Ferreyra, 22, led the team with 13 goals when it won the 2012 Inicial title.

"Fiscal 2011 was a good year."
In a grand slam of a year for the Oregon-based global sports apparel and equipment giant, Parker's role Monday was to trot around the bases. The CEO waved to about 100 people seated in the Tiger Woods Conference Center and many more watching on the Nikebiz.com website.
On Thursday, he'll face a more discerning audience of stock analysts when Nike releases its financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2012.
But on Monday, it was time to flex some muscle and point toward the bleachers where the next blasts are directed.
"You know when we met last year," Parker said at the outset of his presentation, "I told you we would amplify our innovative agenda and we would drive growth at the category, brand and the country level. And we did just that for 2011."
And, as he did for stock analysts at a similar presentation in late June, Parker counted the ways:
- Nike Inc. revenue was $20.9 billion, a company record.
- Nike brand revenue, was $18.1 billion, another record.
- Other revenue — including affiliates Cole Haan, Converse Inc., Hurley International LLC and Umbro International Ltd. — grew by $2.7 billion.
And, in case there were any buy-and-hold investors out there wondering whether they'd made a wise choice in sticking with Nike, Parker offered an elaborate "yes."
In the last 10 years, he said, Nike has:
- More than doubled revenue.
- Increased gross margins more than 5 percent.
- Nearly tripled its cash flow from operations
- More than tripled its market capitalization.
"If you owned Nike stock for those 10 years," Parker said, "we've delivered an annual rate of return of 17 percent."
Shares ticked up 43 cents, or 0.48 percent, to $90.20 in Monday's trading.
Looking forward, Parker acknowledged some grim realities outside the company's control, including a convulsing global economy, high government debt and fluctuating currency valuations.
But, "external forces do not control our destiny," he said. "We do."
He hinted that markets in the developing world would play a big part in future company growth.
"Within 20 years, as much as 65 percent of the world's population could be middle class," he said. "And most of that is in China, India and Brazil. We're already performing very well in these potential markets."
While he did not announce a major initiative on working conditions in Nike's contract factories or on environmental impacts at those factories, Parker issued a position statement on the topics.
"Doing business in today's global economy requires every successful company to integrate sustainability into every aspect of its operations," he said. He noted that the company's huge China Logistics Center in the eastern city of Taicang, Jiangsu province, recently earned Platinum LEED status, the highest rating for a building.
"We innovate to inspire the world," he said. "One of the biggest lessons I've learned as CEO is the need for collaboration.
"Nobody can solve the big challenges, or reach the big opportunities of the future alone — not governments, not companies, not activists. We all have to work together.

The 2014 NYC Mayor's Cup Lacrosse All-Star Games brought together the top male and female high school senior lacrosse players from the Public Schools Athletic League (PSAL), Catholic High School Athletic Association (CHSAA) and independent schools as they competed for the title of "Best in the City" at Poly Prep in Brooklyn. The independent school girls All-Stars, led by MVP Chloe Chasanoff (Fieldston), won their third championship in a row by defeating the PSAL All-Stars by a score of 17-7. In the boys championship, the CHSAA All-Stars defeated the independent school All-Stars in a thrilling 9-6 victory. Tommy Keane (Archbishop Stepinac) took home the MVP plaque after scoring three goals.
Independent School Boys vs. PSAL Boys – Saturday, May 31
In the first game of the weekend, which was played on Saturday afternoon, the independent school boys took on the PSAL boys. The game started well for the PSAL as they struck first on a goal by William Erwin (Bronx Science), but the independent school boys answered with back-to-back goals by Damis Yancopoulos (Hackley) and Adam Philipps (Dalton). Noah Kramer (Stuyvesant) tied the game for the PSAL halfway through the second quarter, and then William Erwin scored his second goal of the game to give the PSAL a 3-2 lead heading into halftime. Rain soaked the two teams as they began the second half, but it didn't stop Noah Kramer from scoring his second goal of the afternoon just 30 seconds into the third quarter to extend the PSAL's lead by two. The independent school boys came right back with five unanswered goals including one from Paul Tetenbaum (Horace Mann), two by Doug Solomon (Poly Prep) and two from Dylan Bass (Rye Country Day). The PSAL's Kenneth Davis (New Dorp) ended the run with a goal of his own right before the end of the quarter, and the teams headed into the final quarter with the independent schools ahead 7-5. Kenneth Davis netted another goal early in the fourth quarter that was promptly followed by another five-goal run by the independent school boys, ending with Xan Jarecki's (Hackley) goal and a score of 12-6. Kenneth Davis made it 12-7 with his third goal of the game, but it was too little, too late for the PSAL as Adam Philipps scored his second and third goals of the day to seal the 14-8 victory for the independent schools. Their win set up a date with the CHSAA in the boys championship game on Sunday afternoon.
Girls Championship: Independent School Girls vs. PSAL Girls – Sunday, June 1
Sunday's action began with the girls championship game, which featured the PSAL girls against the girls from the independent schools. The teams traded empty possessions before Stephanie Frolo (Hackley) struck first for the independent schools three minutes into the game. The PSAL's Emily Karpuzi (Curtis) tied the game less than a minute later, but the independent school girls regained the lead after a goal by Laurel Cassidy (Hackley). Daniela Qyteza (Midwood) evened the score again, but three straight independent school goals by Chloe Chasanoff (Fieldston), Jane Tewksbury (Poly Prep) and Samantha Light (Riverdale) made the score 5-2 and forced the PSAL to take a timeout just about midway through the first half. The independent school girls kept their foot on the gas and added three more goals from Samantha Light, Jane Tewksbury and Caroline Langan (Nightingale) when the teams resumed play following the timeout. Anisa Gjimishka (Tottenville) stopped the bleeding for the PSAL, but Charlotte Hersh (Dalton) answered right back for the independent schools to make the score 9-3 with less than 10 minutes left in the first half. Alissa Romero (Beach Channel) scored for the PSAL to make the score 9-4, but the independent school girls ended the first half with goals by Charlotte Hersh, Madeline Hopper (Riverdale) and two goals by Chloe Chasanoff to take a 13-4 lead into the second half.
The PSAL picked up a goal from Naillenela Haris (Midwood) just 15 seconds into the second half, but once again their momentum quickly vanished after the independent schools went on another run with goals scored by Jane Tewksbury, Kelly McKee (Trinity), Laurel Cassidy and Brigid Regan (Poly Prep). Naillenela Haris and Tara Smith (Curtis) added goals for the PSAL, but the game ended with the independent school girls on top by a score of 17-7. Chloe Chasanoff was awarded the MVP plaque after she netted three goals and assisted on another one to help her team win their third consecutive NYC Mayor's Cup Lacrosse All-Star Game championship.
Boys Championship: CHSAA Boys vs. Independent School Boys – Sunday, June 1
The boys championship game saw the boys from the CHSAA go up against the independent school boys in a battle that included some of the top players in the state of New York, such as Mike Orefice (Iona Prep) who's headed to play his college lacrosse at national powerhouse Loyola University Maryland. The CHSAA opened the scoring on a goal by Jack Korzelius (Iona Prep) less than two minutes into the first quarter, but Dylan Bass (Rye Country Day) tied the game for the independent schools with a goal of his own two minutes later. The game remained tied at one until Tommy Keane (Archbishop Stepinac) picked up his first goal of the game with just over a minute left in the first quarter. Keane made it 3-1 for the CHSAA five minutes into the second quarter, but Damis Yancopoulos (Hackley) answered back with a goal that brought the independent schools back within one with 6:30 left in the first half. Mike Orefice put one in the back of the net for the CHSAA one minute later, and the two teams went into halftime with the CHSAA up 4-2.
Jack Korzelius' scored his second goal of the afternoon early in the third quarter to give the CHSAA a 5-2 lead. The teams traded goals as Jake Margolis (Riverdale) scored for the independent schools, followed by Alex Seabaugh (Xaverian) for the CHSAA, then Paul Tetenbaum (Horace Mann) scored for the independent schools and Tommy Keane finished the third quarter with his third goal of the day to give the CHSAA a 7-4 lead. The independent school boys would not quit and ended up cutting the deficit to one, thanks to goals by Jake Margolis and Tim Truesdell (Trinity). With eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, play went back and forth with both teams taking their fair share of shots at the net, but the stellar play of CHSAA goalie Tyrell Halliman (Mt. St. Michael) and independent goalie Mike Farber (Rye Country Day) kept the score at 7-6. With just over two minutes left in the game, Riley Aviles (Iona Prep) put the game on ice for the CHSAA as he netted two goals within 10 seconds of each other to give his team a 9-6 advantage that they would not relinquish. Tommy Keane took home the MVP plaque after he scored three huge goals to help his team win the NYC Mayor's Cup trophy for the second time in three years

I have not given an album a good kicking since joining TMO. I thought this was going to be the first. I was wrong.
"A World Through Dead Eyes" required perseverance from me, as I prefer Black Metal of the blasting variety, however a change of heads and an open mind has lead to an appreciation of what KROHM has created here. There are moments of utter brilliance on this album, an album that meanders like a corpse clogged river through fields of despair.
Trebly guitars slowly pick tentatively through these songs, akin to a razor blade hovering over an outstretched wrist. Chord-work rarely exceeds a funereal pace and when it does it remains sombre and dirge-like. The only time that any real pace is used is on "My Hearse" and that soon subsides into a ponderous, bleak misery that drags you to its haunting finale.
Numinas, being the single entity in KROHM, has afforded himself the purity of emotion to craft these songs of desolation that a group would otherwise sully and so despite the fairly uniform vocalisation the lyrics are tragic and heartfelt. The simple and occasional use of keyboards only serves to emphasise the wretchedness of "A World Through Dead Eyes," when used, they are a haunting melody quietly flowing through the song structure.
The drum work beats out a steady tattoo, a death march in procession with the warm, rounded bass lines. "The Waning" seeps melancholy from every pore, a hymn for the despondent that possesses a stark beauty in its woeful refrain. Having always shunned this form of Black Metal I am really at a loss for any accurate comparison, rest assured though that this is thoroughly depressing music. I initially considered the songs too long but on reflection the track lengths further compound what KROHM seek to portray.
If you are of a mind to wallow in despair, with a desire for loneliness and isolation, grab this CD and a player and wander off somewhere dark and secluded. Listen to "A World Through Dead Eyes" and allow yourself to be swallowed by some of the most austere of negative emotions. (Online November, 27 2004)
