Aspen Skiing Company (ASC) will invest nearly $8 million in on-mountain improvements this year and has invested more than $130 million over the previous six seasons, giving guests the most seamless skiing/riding experience in the industry. This includes 11 new lifts with two new gondolas, the industry-leading Treehouse Kids’ Adventure Center, three new restaurants, additional terrain plus the new Snowmass base village. In addition, the first phase of the $18 million room renovation at The Little Nell hotel (Aspen’s only five-star, five-diamond hotel) was completed in the fall.

"Adorable, Classy Town"
Aspen is an interesting and beautiful town. We stopped by while passing through Colorado, so we did not take advantage of the skiing aspect, but we loved the shopping. There are lots of stores to choose from. The views are also great! We visited in May and it was snowing, which was such a beautiful sight! The buildings are cute and everything about this town appears classy!

"SKIING AT ITS BEST"
Want to avoid the crowds? Want to find steep and deep terrain? Do you like X-Game terrain parks? Do you enjoy to eat fondue outside on the top of a sunny peak surrounded by breathtaking views? If you said yes to all these things and are hunkering for more than come ski at one or all of the four mountains that Aspen & Snowmass Ski Resort has to offer.
If your a beginner and want gentle and friendly go to Buttermilk. If you like wide, open slopes with access to a short hike to steep walls and cliffs visit Snowmass and go to the new Sweet Life candy shop in the landmark red barn in the new base village.
If you want mostly expert terrain with incredible views and a great lunch visit Ajax Mountain and eat at Bonnies, the local restaurant, and if you are truly an expert, looking for double diamonds and a hike that will leave images of jagged peaks in your mind as you go back to your everyday living and leave you wheezing for more, go to Aspen Highlands, where the lifties are throwbacks from the leather ski boot days and the Highlands bowl awaits you.
