Skiing for Spring Break
Most college students are just returning for their spring semester, but many are already planning on where they will go in two months for Spring Break. While many students automatically head to a warmer climate, March is still optimum skiing time in certain parts of the country.
Colorado has several great places to ski for spring break, including Breckenridge and Aspen, but if you're looking for a college-friendly ski resort in Colorado, try Crested Butte. It's friendly and informal and considered one of the better places for college-aged skiers. It has a lot to do outside of skiing and a good nightlife.
Winter Park in Colorado is another good skiing locale for college students. It's not far from Denver and therefore, is cheap to get to by car, bus or train. Students can typically receive a discount on Greyhound Bus or Amtrak.
