There is truly nothing in the world like getting out on the Colorado slopes during the winter. The air is fresh, the snow is crisp and ready to be carved, and your skis (or board) are calling your name. So why not take full advantage of your trip by pairing it with the perfect marijuana product?
With so many different strains out there, how do you know where to begin?
Well, if you’re planning on spending the majority of your trip on the slopes then you may want to consider purchasing something from the Sativa strain. Sativa strains are known to provide users with a more invigorating and uplifting cerebral effect. This strain pairs well with the vigorous activity of winter sports. Sativa does not come with the same sedation side-effect that other strains have so you can keep your focus on the slopes. We would suggest something like a Moonshine Haze or even a recreational Juicy Fruit for a change of pace.
If you are looking for more of a mellow, relaxing experience, consider purchasing an Indica strain. Known for their sedating effect, Indica strains are a perfect way to unwind from the physically demanding activities of the day. We’d recommend something like recreational Banana Kush. This will give you a pleasant high with a burst of subtle banana flavor for some fun.
Want a mix of both? Hybrids might just be exactly what you’re looking for as they offer the best of both worlds. The effects of a hybrid strain will depend heavily on the traits the strain inherited from its parent strains. Recreational Agent Orange not only provides the perfect mix, but it also delivers incredible citrus flavors. You truly cannot go wrong with a hybrid during your mountain vacation!
From vape pens to concentrates to edibles, there are a million different ways to take advantage of the medical and recreational weed Colorado has to offer. You don’t need to commit to just one style or strain, but it can be a bit overwhelming if you’re a newbie or you’re just not the best decision maker–we’ve all been there. So if you need a little assistance finding the perfect strain for your next trip, stop by our dispensary for a little education.
You don’t need to have a clear idea of what you want (though I’m pretty sure you’ll enjoy any of the above suggestions), you just need to come with an open mind. Open late, Northern Lights Cannabis Co. boasts an incredibly knowledgeable staff ready to listen to your needs and make recommendations. Soon you’ll be enjoying the perfect high and one of the most memorable ski/boarding trips of your life.
