Skiing and the Mountains

• This really is a mountain for all abilities and the mountain is generally split into 3 area’s – beginner on the west, intermediate in the middle and advanced on the East – experts there’s a couple of bowls to. This is great especially great for novices, as they don’t get intimidated by the more advanced skiers.
• In some resorts you pay for cat skiing – not in Copper it’s a free service. They take you to the high peak of Tucker Mountain and this gives you access to some amazing untracked powder and glade skiing. No hiking, no paying it doesn’t get much better.
• Jump the lift queues! The Beeline Advantage is an exclusive lift ticket that allows you to skip the lift lines by accessing the lift through your own dedicated lane.  Additional perks are accessing the mountain 15 minutes early, as well as VIP lesson and rental lanes.  To get the Beeline Advantage, all you have to do is book your lift tickets with your lodging, prior to arrival
