Love letter to Colorado winter

Colorado Ski and Snow

Colorado poet David Mason's ode to winter celebrates all that is special about Colorado snow. Among its other fine qualities, "the quiet of it warms you like a friend," he says. This video will zoom you across some of the most amazing ski areas and alpine terrain in the Rockies: Powderhorn, Ski Hesperus, Kendall Mountain, Purgatory, Crested Butte, and Echo Mountain. Some of these runs and snowshoe trails are just a quick trip from Denver. Others lie deep in the Western Slope. Regardless of where you go, the white stuff in Snow's Perfect State has a way of turning the landscape into a magical realm. What lines will you carve out there this winter?
