| Colorado skiing means blue skies, fluffy powder and some of the best
ski terrain in North America. Aspen/Snowmass, with two towns, four
mountains (Snowmass, Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, and Buttermilk), 4,160
acres, 40 lifts, 270 trails and the steepest vertical drop in Colorado, offers
the best terrain and greatest variety of Rocky Mountain skiing at a single resort.
Snowmass Ski Area. Aspen's giant mountain, Snowmass is a massive
mountain offering incredibly varied terrain for skiing and snowboarding, including
half-pipes and terrain parks. It is said to be the open-glade cruising capital
with good terrain for all skills, all ages, all passions -- and fast lifts and
very long runs. Long famous for the Big Burn, Snowmass has introduced even higher
and more vast terrain for all abilities, thanks to the Cirque lift, which brings
you the longest lift-served vertical in the United States. Accessible by free
shuttle from anywhere in the Aspen/Snowmass area, Snowmass is located just 12
miles from downtown Aspen. The only true ski-in/ski-out resort in Colorado,
Snowmass Village, rests at its base. |
