We are in the midst of Spring Fever in Breckenridge. It’s awesome. Beginning a couple of weeks ago, on St. Patty’s Day, and continuing through closing day on April 15th, Breckenridge Ski Resort is hosting a slew of events including an on-mountain scavenger hunt, a beer festival featuring craft brews and free music, comedians on Thursday nights, terrain park happy hours on Fridays, and some big name musical acts on Saturdays and Sundays. I saw Julian Marley play this past Saturday, tomorrow Leftover Salmon takes the stage, and Sunday’s musical guest is Donavon Frankenreiter.
Julian Marley was quite the rage. A bluebird day at Breck, the combination of beautiful weather and promise of a jammin’ reggae show brought big crowds to the base of Peak 8. My fiancée, Tym, and I rode the gondola from town to the base area around 2pm. We made our way through the crowd to the bar, bought a round of drinks, and headed out to enjoy the music.
The stage was built on a ski run. Sounds of Jamaican-jam music greeted skiers and riders, while those who were finished riding had plenty of dancing room, at an incredible venue.
Jammin’ with Julian Marley!
Looking back toward One Ski Hill Place. I think it’s safe to say everyone was having a great time.
The SnowCats already hard at work!
Enjoying ourselves before the show.
BRECK!! I love this place.
