1 SUMMIT COUNTY GETAWAY: BRECKENRIDGE, SILVERTHORNE, FRISCO, DILLON, KEYSTONE & COPPER MOUNTAIN COLORADO Appropriately named “Colorado’s Playground,” Summit County is an easy day trip from Denver and the Front Range. The area is hugged by three mountain ranges and presents enough activities to satisfy anyone itching to get out and go. DAY 1 Start the day scoring deals at nearly 70 name-brand stores, including J. Crew, Banana Republic and Coach, at the Outlets at Silverthorne . Counter your shopping with a trip down to the water. Silverthorne’s Blue River Trail (6) runs parallel to the outlet shops and provides access to the river’s Gold Medal trout-filled waters and scenic walkway. Watch how far your ball flies through the thin mountain air while teeing off at one of Keystone’s two 18-hole champi-onship courses, Keystone Ranch and the Keystone River Course (3) , before heading west to Frisco for an afternoon on Dillon Reservoir , where you can rent canoes, kayaks, pontoon boats and paddleboats. FROM TOP: TOWN OF DILLON; LAKE DILLON, TOWN OF FRISCO. After exploring the 25 miles of shoreline, stop off at the Peninsula Recreation Area for a round of disc golf and loads of picnic sites perfect for spreading out with lunch from one of charming Main Street’s tempting delis and chef-owned eateries. The Frisco Bay Marina (2) has a sandy beach and a lakeside watering hole that serves up delicious dark and stormy cocktails. The Frisco 2 QUICK TIP 152 / The Cheese Shop of Breckenridge is the perfect spot to pick up all the fixins for a picnic — cheese, cured meats, chocolates and other delicious bits and pieces.
