Transportation/Shuttle/Parking Mega Thread 2024-2025

18 Upvotes

Please post all transportation/parking/shuttle/directions questions in this Mega Thread

All the parking rules and information for the town is located on the Breck Park website. Keep in mind they WILL ticket and fine you if you are parked illegally. They literally have people who walk up and down main street (and town) all day checking and rechecking license plates. Thats the their job.. all day.

If you are RENTING a car from Denver, please keep in mind the Colorado Traction Laws. Don’t be the reason I-70 gets shut down.

Most of the main town is walk-able so it’s always recommended to grab a shuttle from the airport vs renting a car.

Boreas Pass Loop is exclusive to Breckenridge. And Blue River is kind of Breckenridge too. Plus there are a few stops on the north end of town that are only accessible by the Frisco/Breckenridge Route.

FAQ:

Where can I overnight park?

Breck Park allows overnight parking in the Airport Road Lot (1700 Airport Road, Breckenridge, CO 80424) and must be purchased in advanced.

Can I vehicle camp?

No vehicle camping is allowed in the Town of Breckenridge per Town Ordinance 6-3H- 4

Screw it I will just Uber everywhere...

Uber/Lyft/Ridesharing can take a while, and it may not be available if there's a big storm or very late at night, so do NOT rely on it like you would in Denver or another major city. Best bet is the bus system, hotel shuttle or walking while in town.

Frisco, Breckenridge inter-commuting options

0 Upvotes

My girlfriend is taking the Bustang to Frisco on a weekend from Denver and will need to make it into Breck. What are the commuting options she’ll have available?

She may have a bike as well for intra-commuting within each town.

Thank you for your suggestions!

Question Visiting in Early November (non snow sports related)

0 Upvotes

How are (non skiing) conditions in early November? Particularly planning a weekend trip to get a house with some friends and mostly hangout at the house, take in the natural beauty/hopefully go for a nice (but not too strenuous) hike, and spend a little time checking out downtown (food, drinks, shops, etc). Just wondering if it's an alright time of year to visit since I saw some posts where people said stuff might be closed due to it being the shoulder season between summer and winter activities. Are there hiking trails that are still accessible around then even with there being some level of snow?

Food and Beverage jobs

1 Upvotes

My partner and I just secured housing in breck this winter, and are currently looking for jobs. We’re both bartenders/servers, with tons of experience, but I haven’t seen many job postings yet. Interested in hearing any insights/suggests on places to apply, what places to avoid, and what the food and beverage scene is like. Do most restaurants offer ski passes Is it just too early to apply places for the winter? We’re coming from Big Sky so we’re used to ski towns.

Question Terrace employee housing rates?

0 Upvotes

Hello, just got accepted for employee housing this season. I got a shared room 3x2, does anyone know how much those are running biweekly? On the site it just gives a range of 250-350 biweekly for shared rooms and id assume 3x2 would be on the lower end of that. Does anyone know the actual fixed rate?

Question Planning a solo post-divorce trip . . . How is December Skiing if I'm not Looking for Advanced Terrain?

0 Upvotes

Wanting to plan a solo trip for my 40th around mid December. I'm going through a divorce so the purpose of the trip is just to get out and enjoy myself, meet new people, and just have fun. I grew up on New Mexico slopes so I don't need anything other than enough runs to not be bored during the day. I don't do double-blacks either. I'm mainly going for the nightlife which seems to be better than most mountains in Colorado and I'm not rich enough for Aspen nor want to travel to a remote resort. Is Breckenridge in December good enough for my purposes?

Parking Ticket despite paying for street parking

0 Upvotes

Back in May we received a ticket from the town of Breckenridge for parking, however we paid for the parking online and had 20+ minutes left when we left. Weve submitted our proof through written letter as they require (what a racket to begin with) and here we are still receiving mail for the violation. Has anyone had any experience with this? We cant call or email as they dont allow you to.

Seasonal employee looking for roommate

Howdy yall! I'm gonna be working at Breckenridge for the 25-26 winter season. I'm looking for someone who's also looking for a roommate. I'm 21F, I snowboard, I love music and playing guitar, and I like to rock climb:)

Ideally, I'd prefer a roommate of the same sex and age range as myself, but I'm open to expanding my preferences depending on the person. Let me know if you're interested!

African population in summit county

0 Upvotes

I found it interesting to see so many African immigrants working in summit county at Walmart, city market or other places. Makes me wonder how and why they chose such an expensive place to live and work. I think it’s great that they seem to be doing well and I know there are some rent deals for local workers under a certain income level but still curious how they came to settle here vs other more affordable areas.
