I came across another cool maze. I used the word cool for a reason. This newly made maze is located at the Copper Mountain Ski resort in Colorado. Specifically in the White River National Forest, about 2 hours drive west of Denver. Previously, I found 5 of the World's Largest Winter Mazes. While this one doesn't hold any records, its size and location are impressive. The Snice Snow & Ice Carvings team built the maze in nine days, using over 50,000 cubic feet of snow (that’s a lot of snow!). The final maze, with its 7-foot walls and carved artwork, is free to visitors of the ski resort. Located in East Village next to the Super Bee lift & Tubing Hill, you can find the maze rules and photos on the mazes webpage.
You can plan a trip to the resort here. If you are in Colorado and need some ice or snow carved into something interesting contact the Snice Snow & Ice Carvings team. Their Insta page is worth following to see all the wonderful work they do !
This is the third straight year a maze has been created at Copper Mountain and here is a look at last year’s version:
But snow mazes are just one type of maze; there are many others to explore. What kind of mazes do you prefer? Ones made of ice and snow? Corn? Hedges? Stones? There are so many to choose from ! If you prefer maze art, I have some examples from Colorado. I think you'll especially like the Cadet Chapel!
US Air Force Cadet Chapel Maze
Cliff Dwellings of Mesa Verde Maze
Blue Mustang Sculpture Maze (also known as blucifer)
While you are in Colorado you might want to walk a labyrinth where you are sure not never get lost:
