Slopes Of Aspen

    in Aspen, Colorado there are a couple mountains you could go skiing and snowboarding on. Those mountains consist of: Buttermilk, Aspen Mountain, Aspen highlands, and Aspen Snowmass. There is terrain there for everyone..... bowls, glades, groomers, rocks, bumps, and parks. HAVE FUN!
 
 

Some Info. on The Mountains

    Buttermilk is the easiest mountain of the four and the location of the
Winter X Games VII. I would suggest this hill for a beginner and intermediate,
the terrain is perfect for parks and pipes. Not to worry about the lift lines, they are usually quite small.Buttermilk is an awesome mountain and if you like don't have fun there or feel you need more of a challenge you can jump on the bus, FOR FREE, and go to one of the other three mountains.

Aspen Mountain overlooks the cute little town of Aspen. This mountain is for intermediate to advanced. This is because its is a steep mountain with lots of bumps and trees. This year they might even add a rail at the bottom.

Aspen Highlands is the place where the locals go.This mountain is famous for the big bowl on top. You have to hike a big long hike up it but on a nice powder day it just might be what you need.
On this mountain there are no parks but they do alllow you to build your own jumps. But on one condition, its not in the way of any runs.

Snowmass is very large and has terrain for all. The variety of terrain
here makes Snowmass popular with familiesNo worries there is plenty of steepness. The terrain park is crazy at snowmass! Anything you can think of is there.The only thing that isn't so great at snowmass and buttermilk wopuld be the flat spots. But you can handle it.
