Colorado boasts the highest city in North America, and at 10,152’, Leadville offers winter activities to experience outdoor fun in a genuine and historic mountain town. Ski Cooper, known by those who love it as a ski “resort” without the pretense, is set to open on December 8, 2021.
Cooper is a place to escape the crowds and take a much-needed break in the mountains. There are no lift lines, high prices, high-rise condos, or hard man-made “snow.”
Cooper boasts wide-open spaces in a family-friendly and affordable environment. There are 62 ski runs at Cooper, including 16 double-black diamond and 3 black diamond runs available in Tennessee Creek Basin.
