Peterson AFB Amenities Part 4 - Outdoor Rec

Continuing our guide to military members and current residents in the area of Peterson AFB Real Estate, today we explore the Peterson AFB Outdoor Rec.

Most military members know that Outdoor Rec is the place to go for renting sports equipment. And if you're moving to Colorado, I bet you also know about all the great skiing this state has to offer. That makes the Peterson AFB Outdoor Rec a service worth looking at.

Perhaps the 2 best deals are for renting ski equipment and buying lift tickets. If you're new to skiing or snowboarding and want to get a taste for it, then renting is the way to go. And if you like it, I recommend renting for your first season to get a feel for what kind of equipment is gonna suit you the best. Then you can make the bigger investment of buying your own gear.

And you can buy Lift Tickets at a significant discount...usually anywhere from 15-40% off the window prices.

Take a look at some of the rental rates:
