Snowmass

Snowmass is one of the largest ski resorts in Colorado, and its proximity to and shared lift tickets with neighboring Aspen create one of the largest ski regions in the country. Steeps, gentle cruisers, above-timberline bowls: whatever terrain type you're looking for, Snowmass has it. The view from the ridgetop at over 12,000 feet takes in a breathtaking panorama of the central Rockies, including the scenic Maroon Bells. Snowmass also features the longest half-pipe on the continent.

Nearby Ski Resorts

Other Ski Resorts in the area include Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, and Buttermilk Ski Resort. These can all be skied using the same lift ticket.
