⛷️ Winter Park 2026: Fresh Tracks & Legendary Eats!

The Nashville Ski Club officially kicked off the 2026 season with an unforgettable week at Winter Park, Colorado. Over 20 members and guests traded the Nashville humidity for the high-alpine air, and the mountains did not disappoint!

The Snow Report: Nature Delivers
While the week started with leaner coverage than usual, our group brought the good luck with them. As the week progressed, the clouds opened up, fresh powder fell, and the mountain team opened more terrain just for us. By the end of the trip, we were carving through excellent conditions and enjoying every inch of the newly opened runs.

The Social Scene: Dining in Style

If there’s one thing the NSC knows how to do, it’s Après-Ski. Our social calendar was packed:

The Kickoff: We started strong with a welcome reception at Locals Pub, right on the mountain.
The Classics: We headed to Randi’s, a long-time local staple. Between the roaring fireplace and a custom menu of steak, salmon, and Shepherd’s Pie, it was the definition of "mountain cozy."
The New Favorite: We took over the wine room at Volario’s for an epic family-style Italian feast. The lasagna and Bolognese were hits, but the real highlight was having our own private space for our "rowdy" crew—which included some great guest skiers from the Huntsville and Greenville clubs!
The Grand Finale: We wrapped up the week the right way—with a pizza and leftover party at Judy’s condo on Saturday night.

The Verdict: Success!

The best part of the trip? Zero injuries! Everyone returned home safe, sound, and ready for the next adventure.

A massive thank you to our incredible trip co-leaders, Judy and Tom, for keeping the logistics smooth and the energy high. Here’s to the next one!

Be sure to check out trip photos in the Photo Gallery and have a look at this cool video from the trip! Our very own Howard H. put it together.
