New snow helps extend Copper Mountain ski season

Apr 17, 2026, 11:53 AM

After a terrible season for snow that has led to most ski resorts to close early, many as early as this weekend.

But Copper Mountain is taking advantage of some of the recent snow storms their way and announced they will send it into May extending their closing day to May 3rd.  And not only will they give skiers an extra week, but at a great cost with lift tickets only being $49 during their last week.

Now through April 26th lift tickets will be $99 before the discount begins, and you should be able to take advantage of their Eagle, Excelorator and Super Bee lifts (and their Flyer lift is set to run through April 26th)

Some of their remaining events include:

  • 4/18 – Peace out in Central Park hosted by Danny Davis
  • 4/24-4/26 – Sunsation Music festival
  • 4/26 – Skimmy Dippers Dual Pond Skim
  • 5/1 – Party Laps
