Colorado Ski Areas
If you don’t see your favorite resort, contact their Ski and Snowboard School and let them know you would like to see their instructors featured on Ski School Pros.
In many cases, resorts will give permission to instructors from another resort to visit with their private clients. In Colorado, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone and Vail Mountain have the same parent company (Vail Resorts), so no special permission is needed for for those instructors to travel with their clients to sister resorts (but in some cases, a travel fee will be charged). Similar with Aspen Highlands, Aspen Mountain, Buttermilk and Snowmass.
