Pole Creek Moonlight Snowshoe What a great way to spend a Saturday Night: on the links of Pole Creek Golf Club with skis on your feet and the moon lighting the ground below. Pole Creek Golf Club had their first, of hopefully many, moonlight snow shoe and ski events this past Saturday night and the event was fantastic.  Show up...

VS Skiing back on the East Coast vs skiing in Colorado out West??  Is there even a comparison?  I found an article on CBS website about skiing back East vs skiing in the West and I thought it would be a good piece for the Winter Park Lodging Company blog.  I have never skied back East but Sarah, my lovely wife, grew...

Winter Park Pub I thought I would help Jeff the owner of the Winter Park Pub get the word out that the Pub has The NFL Sunday Ticket.  So all of you Packer, Steelers, Giants, Bears, Browns, Dolphins, Cardinal and I won’t  forget Cowboys fans, get your grid iron fill at the Pub.   All season long you can find your NFL...

I thought this old ski brochure for Winter Park was cool.  Look at the prices $5.00 for a day of skiing in 1968.  The lodging prices are very nice too!  $20.00 to $28.00 for two people at Beaver’s.  They were even having fashion shows there.  It really must have been a hoot.  Check out the trail map.&n...
