"Excellence in Action"
Summit County is “not just a spot on the map” – it’s a true Community with people who live here full-time, who truely care for each other, help each other out – and are dedicated to preserve their Mountain Community lifestyle and the environment they live in. It is a welcoming place and the locals are happy to share it with those who decide to move here or “set up tent” on a seasonal basis. On that note, however, it should be mentioned that:
The ski areas of Arapahoe Basin, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain and Keystone are world-famous for snow, hospitality and ski terrain for all abilities. But there is a much broader world in Summit than “just winter activities on the slopes”. Each town in Summit County has festivities year-round from the 4th of July Parades, to the Ullr Fest, Copper Country, the Bluegrass Festival in Keystone and so much more. In addition there are the amazing theater offerings as well as the arts that abound year-round with shows of comedy, drama and musicals.
Fuel your passion for biking, hiking, skiing, rafting, the arts and more or simply sit quietly in these serene mountains and take in the natural beauty that Summit County offers to everyone here.

Summit County’s proximity to Denver, and it’s international airport (DIA), as well as the “Big City Life” is unique. Coming “up” from Denver you have a short drive and after less than 80 miles on I-70, you’ll cross the threshold of the Continental Divide – so many adventures to look forward to!
