This is possibly the busiest safeway per capita in the universe. Pick the timing of your shopping. Right after skiing (4-6), this place is a zoo. It is 24 hours, so early am or later in the night is sometimes better.
I generally do some shopping on the way up if at all possible.

Entertainment & Activities
We love sugarbowl for skiing. It is less than 10 minutes and very family friendly. There is great terrain and they usually get lots of snow.
