As the only publicly owned resort in the state, it has great facilities for kids and disabled skiers and the 200-acre Discovery Park , an excellent, economical area for beginners. Experienced skiers, in turn, relish the mogul runs on the awesome Mary Jane Mountain , the fluffy snows of the Parsenn Bowl, and the backcountry idyll of Vasquez Cirque . In addition to skiing, you can snowmobile the Continental Divide on a one-hour tour with Trailblazers in Fraser ($35; tel 970/726-8452), or around a 25-mile course at Mountain Madness ($35 per hour; tel 970/726-4529), just north of town. Summer visitors can enjoy six hundred miles of mountain bike trails, some of the best of which are accessible from the chair-lift ($21 for an adult day bike pass), in addition to the super-fun mile-and-a-half-long Alpine Slide ($6) and several contemporary music festivals. </body>
