An annual meetup for snowboarders of the internet
One day a year, the Angry Snowboarder community takes over Ski Cooper on Tennessee Pass, Colorado — group laps all morning, board talk on every chair, and a well-earned round at the base to close it out.
Next up: … · the annual edition
Lifts turn in
Valid: third Thursday of February · every year
Admit: all shredders
The third Thursday of February, every single year. No sign-ups and no tickets from us — grab your own lift ticket, show up, and find the crew. Weekday laps mean the lines stay short and the snow stays fresh longer.
Ski Cooper, ten miles north of Leadville on US-24 atop Tennessee Pass. Base at 10,500 feet, 100% natural snow, and the kind of old-school, no-nonsense hill that still feels like snowboarding. Trail maps and tickets at skicooper.com.
Group laps all morning, gear nerdery on every chairlift ride, and a thirsty après at the base to cap it off. Bring water and pace yourself — the altitude up here is undefeated.
