Denver is arguably the ski capital of the United States. I actually had a cousin that was born and raised in Chicago but he loves skiing so much that he decided to attend the University of Colorado so he could hit the slopes on a regular basis. The reason for the great skiing conditions is of course, because of the Rocky Mountains.

The average temperature in Denver is 50°. The first snowfall usually comes around mid-October and the snow continues to fall until the end of April. That’s six plus months of prime skiing to take advantage of. The summer months can be pretty hot with highs in June, July and August averaging in the upper 80s. The winters on the other hand, are quite mild and inviting with average highs in the 40s and 50s.

In addition to the outstanding skiing are some glorious state parks and recreation areas. Denver in fact, has over 200 parks and its largest, City Park is a whopping 314 acres. Because of these great outdoor attractions Denver gets quite a few tourists each and every year in addition to their population of permanent residents which as of 2008 is estimated to be 600,000 people.

Of course, all of these visitors need places to stay so to meet their needs there are plenty of hotels, motels and bed and breakfast accommodations throughout the Denver area.
