Aspen Mountain

Aspen Mountain is the premiere ski resort in the Aspen area. The rich and famous come from across the country to ski these intermediate and advanced slopes. There are no beginner runs here, allowing experienced skiers and boarders free reign.

Aspen features a number of other unique features, including the world's first skier-only terrain park. The gondola to the top of Ajax Mountain provides outstanding views of the surrounding countryside.
