Hey, there is a chance that I'll get to head to Breck in a few weeks. Don't now the area at all but I'm looking to see if anyone can give ma an idea on where to get a deal on lift tickets, Good eat places, good drink (micro brews) and such?
Also, I want to take a day and do some touring if the conditions permit, so info on that would be great also!
Thanks much,
RA

RA - Sounds like you'll be in my neck of the woods. I can probably drive up on a weekend from Denver and show you some of the areas on Breck. I'm by no means an expert, but have skied there plenty. Send me a PM with dates.

Tickets - Usually the grocery stores around Denver (King Soopers, Safeway, City Market) have the cheapest tickets (but still expensive).

Downstairs at Erics is a decent place to grab some grub.

Microbrews - Breckenridge brewery is decent (and you can eat there as well). Try to find some Wynkoop or Oskar Blues if you're at the local liquore store.
