Vail Christmas 2022 Ski Colorado 12/25/2022

Christmas Day at Vail Ski Resort in Colorado always has a light turnout first thing in the morning. People are busy with their holiday traditions, which don't seem to include skiing on Christmas morning. First stop, Blue Sky Basin. Oops, showed up at the Skyline Express Lift too soon. Doesn't open until later, so we'll just have to do a lap on Tea Cup Express Lift. It's a super overcast day and flat light conditions, so you can hardly see the terrain. Makes it a little dicey sometimes. There was a huge wind event several days ago that blew off the powder and smoothed out and buffed the surface. The sun finally pokes through for a short period and softens things up as the skiers and riders finally begin populating the slopes. Merry Christmas!

Thanks for all of these videos! I have my 1st ski holiday in CO February 25.. I live in western MA and ski mostly on ice, so I am pretty excited to experience CO :)

Thanks for getting up so early and driving so far and getting in line before everyone for the vid. Great job as always

Hope you get to record the new Game Creek and Sun Down lifts when they finally open.

Was that big bang a rocket shot out to start an avalanche somewhere? So nice and pretty out there. I'll be heading there next season hopefully.

I ski vicariously through you, until I lose enough weight where i can go again :)

You can do it!!! I lost 60lbs and last season was my first after 30 years... I now am motivated to stay fit throughout the year so I can ski :)
