Gluten Free In Snowmass, Colorado

[LindaNewYork]

Has anyone had any experience with gluten free eating on Snowmass mountain? I have been trying to contact the food service there and have not had much luck getting anyone who can respond.

Linda,

We are going to snowmass at the end of March and I am looking for information too. i haven't had a lot of luck either. Please let me know if you find out. Both of my children and myself are gluten-free.

Hi,

I wasn't gluten-free when I went, but I remember having trouble with the food issue anyway. The one thing I can say is there was this ski-up restaurant & bar - you could literally ski down the low slope & walk right into the bar area outside - you could go into the front door too (I can't remember the name). Anyway, they had awesome chicken wings free with a happy hour pitcher or whatever.

I remember food was hard to come by - mostly restaurants, sandwich/salad place, bar & grill, pizza place. We packed a bit of food - we stayed for a week.

There was no grocery store or anything like it (as far as we knew) - maybe you'll have more luck in the food department than I did.

We had lots of fun, though ... hope you guys do too. The elevation and dry, cold atmosphere really killed us though - we were glad we brought the ibuprofen & hot tea.

Hi there, I just read your posting and we just got home from Vail last Sunday, I was worried about eating the cafe foods as well........ what I did is wore a fanny pack and took Dinty Moore beef stew (their a little salty, but for 3 days it worked) and popped it in the mico wave, if there's no microwave out for you to use, you could ask the staff (I had to do that at 1 restaurant on the mountain), I also put an apple in my jacket pocket and put the individual carmel dipping in my fanny pack. One day I took an individual peanut butter I found at Jewel, I think it's Jiff. It got me through the ski day. Hope this info. helps.
