Would anyone be interested in flying out west to hit up a mountain for a day? ---

you would have to get on a plane in pit at 5 am to land in DEN at 7 local time. It’s at least an hour to A-basin or Loveland, which are 2 of the closer resorts to the airport. You would probably only make it through half of any big resort like Breck, before you would have to leave again (no night skiing means they close at 4:30). One day is not worth it. Save up for another 3 months, and go out the first week that they start spring rates. Still great snow, the occasional storm (I got to ski 20" of powder this past april), and cheaper. I’m going out Tomorrow, and will be back Sunday. It has been the snowiest start to a season in 26 years. ---
