Hi

Going to Breckenridge in 6 weeks, any suggestions for the best places for our apres ski?

Checked the weather and its snowing already!

Really excited as we missed last season due to a small accident.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

Jacki :D

Hi J :) welcome to the site and be prepared for some 'odd' humour from the inhabitants ;)

I only have anecdotal evidence for Breckenridge, however I suggest Austria as a fantastic location for Apres Ski.

Welcome to the forum :D My memories of Breckenridge were of plenty of bars and a Micro Brewery at the top end of the town. It was quite a while ago though.

Never skied Breckenridge, but the resorts I have skiied state side seem to have lots of free food.

Buffalo wings are my favourite!

Is a buffalo some kind of American Haggis?

On thread -

There is a big bar at the pond at the foot of the slopes in Breck. Think it is called Maggies. They have a bit of apres ski going on, but I have to say, like most North American resorts Apres ski is quite thin on the ground.

I have found that most North American resorts seem to cater more for their seasonal workers than their tourists. By that I mean Bands playing and fun starting around 11pm when most tourists have turned in and looking forward to an early start on the hill.

No. I think a buffalo is actually a real animal and not bits of one )

It was the mention of wings which made me think it may be some mythical North American delicacy :lol:

I like the idea of buffalo with wings. Not so delicate though.....

Duh! Dont you know anything?????? Every haggis has wings. They dont taste good so we remove before eating.
Honestly, what do they teach in those anglo-centric schools!!!!!!
