April 23, 2023
On Saturday, April 22, Copper Mountain Resort kicked off its Sunsation spring festival with a pond skim competition, live music and all-day festivities.
Skiers and riders flocked to the resort not only to hit the slopes for the last few times before the end of the season but also to participate in Copper’s “Slush Rush” pond skimming competition.
This year, Copper took a unique spin on the traditional spring ski area activity with the resort hosting a team relay pond skim which featured the Copper superpipe with slalom gates, a boarder-cross course with special challenges, a rail section with a jump, and of course the iconic pond skim pool at the bottom.
