LOVE ON THE ROCKIES
DENVER, Colo. - February 6, 2008 - Colorado Ski Country USA (CSCUSA) understands that love can be complicated, fickle, and sometimes elusive. Skiers and riders love powder days but are partial to bluebird days too. They love new equipment but will never give up a favorite hat or comfy old sweater. Snow aficionados are forever in search of the perfect day even if yesterday was epic. CSCUSA loves its resorts but simply cannot commit to just one.
With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it's time to commit to a romantic getaway in Colorado's high country. Whatever the relationship level, a commitment to a ski country getaway is sure to satisfy. Guests will be hard-pressed to find a more charming locale than a quaint Colorado ski village aglow with warm street lights and the promise of a cozy fireplace.
Colorado ski country supplies dozens of heart warming activities. Couples' massage, sleigh rides, mountain-top dinners, and starlit gondola rides are just a few options. Many of these are also perfect for popping the question. For the ultimate powderhound proposal, duck into the trees with your sweetheart at Steamboat, ride the all-glass Silver Queen Gondola at night on Aspen Mountain, or stand at the top of Telluride overlooking the breathtaking San Juan Mountains.
No matter the commitment terms, take your relationship to a higher level and take advantage of these romance centered packages.
