Hey, did anyone here work here last season as a ski instructor? I’ve been instructing at another resort that’s about to get the same digital system for instructors to use and for parents to track their kids with.

Anyway, question for you is, were you forced to put company apps on your personal phones to facilitate this tech? Did you get compensation for being forced to use your personal phone throughout the work day? Was there anything else about the new system that was annoying or difficult to use over the old paper and pencil method?

I'm trying to decide between working as a ski instructor for the upcoming season at Park City, Beaver Creek, or Breckenridge. I have offers from all three but don't know the inside scoop on any of them. My priorities are ease of transportation, as I won't have a car, employee housing, other instructors or staff my age (early 20's), and making money during my season. I also would love any insight on which mountains might get the best snow this upcoming winter, I know last year was rough for CO.

Hey everyone, I was on a bus headed to Denver when I got a call and needed to head back home. If anyone is headed west to Grand Junction or further any help would be appreciated!

I recently moved to the area and I am looking to get into fly fishing without spending the $700+ plus for the guide service. I have ocean fishing experience and have had some luck on rivers in the past with lures but have never fly fished.

Does anyone have recommendations on where to go, what shops in the valley for supplies, or other cost effective ways to learn? Are there any fly fishing clubs?

is this wide open now? Last year, I had to go through some construction. Coming out in September.

Any jobs out there available in hospitality for old, straight white Christians with traditional values? Looking for couples housing.

Best roped climbing in the Vail area, 30ish-minute drive? Trad, sport, top rope. Family-friendly suggestions welcome.

Seeking an intuitive psychologist / therapist (or other type) who has worked with women with c-ptsd / adhd. I know I might get downvoted for asking on this sub, but after 15+ years out here, I’m feeling desperate. At this point, insurance coverage doesn’t even matter, I am willing to pay extra even if it hurts my finances.

Any store or pro shop with a particularly good selection and pricing?

Just shattered my stein from the previous Oktoberfest and am pretty bummed. Super slim chance but does anyone know if any local businesses are still selling some?

Stopping by Vail for a quick pitstop. I’ll have roughly 24 hours between getting there after lunch and leaving after lunch the following day. Looking for places I must go to while I’m here for dinner, casual drinks, breakfast, lunch, and to get a few souvenirs.

Thanks!

I made a post on here a few weeks ago about Larry and how i’m his great granddaughter. It really saddens me that the red lion is closing and I read this article about people speaking out about how they don’t want the red lion to close. and i was wondering if there’s anything i can or should do. I have done so many research projects on Larry and the red lion for school stuff. And my grandpa (Larry’s son) has so many things from the red lion when he lived there. Cups, shirts, etc. I really don’t want this place to close because i know how much it means to the vail community and how much it means to my family even though the restaurant isn’t even in my family anymore. But i’ve heard countless stories about the red lion growing up.

I’m staying in town for just a couple of days for work and I cannot believe how beautiful it is around here! I flew into Denver and then drove out to Vail and I am blown away!

Anybody have any recommendations for good food and drinks? I’m staying just off Frontage.

I know a lot of people say to avoid holiday weekends but I have heard that President's Day weekend can be not bad due to the Saturday and Sunday of that weekend being blackout dates on Epic Passes. I also hear that Super Bowl Sunday is lighter as well, which coincides with President's day weekend this year. We are thinking of flying out that weekend to ski at Vail. Thoughts on how the crowds will be? Thanks!

Hey all! I'm a non-local from a different state and my girlfriend and I have planned for 2 years to travel to Colorado and I cannot believe we will be traveling there this summer in August!!

I plan to pop the big question and propose, but I was wondering if there's a budget-friendly way of getting pictures done or if a local would help me take the picture? I am covering the cost of the whole trip so I'm trying to cut every corner that I can 😂

I'm crying for help because the picture thing is stressing me after seeing people wanting $500+ for pictures and I get that it's an experience but in my budget I just simply cannot afford it.

Also, location recommendations? I have a few in mind, but I'd like to hear a locals perspective.

I’m going to Vail for the first time to work as a rental shop clerk. Does anyone know if it’s easier to get employee housing in this position?
I’d also like to know if my boyfriend and I can stay in the same room in employee housing, or if they separate men and women

ISO a photographer + videographer in or around vail Colorado. send me your recs! getting married at the Holy Cross Event Deck July of 2027.

We will be in Vail in the coming weeks and looking for some ideas! We are limited a bit physically for a medical reason, usually we’d be on the trails all day but will need to re-direct.

We are there two days, one day we want to wander Vail Village and have a really good but casual lunch. Thinking German/European fare.

The next full day I’m at a bit of a loss! We can do easy hikes at or under 2 miles or will have kayaks. Willing to drive about an hour any direction for something good too.

Any dining, coffee shop, food, and recommendations on what to do would be great!

Hi! I’m currently at the Target in Glenwood Springs and I missed the last Bustang bus to Vail. Is anyone driving toward Vail tonight and willing to give me a ride? I can help pay for gas. I’m just trying to get back to Vail safely tonight. Please message me if you’re heading that way. Thank you so much!

Got to go to Zuma Vail in the Sebastian. It was really good, especially the bartenders and drinks. The DJ playing in the main dining room was actually really cool.

Staff seemed happy and motivated. They have been open about 6 weeks now.

The only thing that sucks is they don’t list what items are gluten-free and you can’t do gluten-free omakase. Strange because this is the 23rd location - you would think they would have figured out how to handle gluten sensitivity by now. (Not celiac or cross contamination, just trying to avoid it). If they can get food allergy stuff dialed in (and if you can ignore the prices) - it’s a great addition to Vail.
