SNOWBOARD Mag Visits Echo Mountain

Yesterday, we were invited to take a little tour and take a day to explore Echo Mountain. A short 35 minute drive from Denver and about 45 minutes from Boulder you cant beat it. The first thing that you will enjoy once you drive up to the lodge is the incredible view from a little over 10,000 ft, the next thing you will enjoy is the number of jibs and jumps that you will be able to slay. The highlight of the day was Chris Corning, the 8 year old Echo Team member. I guess you can say he was our tour guide and he did not disappoint, remember that name. Keep an eye out for Echo Mountain's season pass deals going on sale soon. Visit echomtnpark.com
