Colorado Startup Ski Day (Vail)
Startup Ski Days are back for another season!
This started a few years ago as a simple idea: get the Colorado startup community together on the mountain once a month. No agenda, just some turns, and conversations that only happen on a chairlift (campfire).
It’s one of our favorite things we do. And it’s open to everyone. If you’re a founder, operator, investor, or just startup-curious - come. If you’re a great skier, brand new, or more into hanging out in the lodge with some chili - come. We’ve even had people snowshoe or cross-country ski at the same resorts. The point is community, outside.
Here’s the 2026–27 lineup:
December 11 – Eldora
January 15 – Vail
February 5 – Copper
February 19 – Winter Park
March 26 – Breck
April 16 – Abasin
The day is real simple:
8:00am - Coffee + breakfast meetup (optional)
9:30am - Hit the slopes (come and go when it works for you)
12:00pm - Lunch
1:00pm - More snow
4:00pm - Optional apres
Everyone covers their own lift ticket, gear, and transportation. We’ll help coordinate carpools so the I-70 stretch feels easier.
It’s been awesome to see this tradition grow over the last five years. Can’t wait to see familiar faces, and new ones, out there this season.
