This is one of Copper Mountain's designated routes for skinning outside of operating hours, typically before 8:30am and after 4:30pm. It begins in Center Village at the base of the American Flyer lift, then follows blue runs Main Vein and Rhapsody to green EZ Road. The route is sometimes closed above EZ Road due to winching, but if it's open you can continue up Copperopolis and Collage to the top of Super Bee lift.
Description
