The Skiers' Guide to Aspen Snowmass

Aspen Snowmass is one of the most challenging and pristine places to ski in Colorado, USA. Great for a solo trip, and fun for the whole family!

4 dif mountains at Aspen Snowmass so you get a TON of variety and you definitely want to spend enough time to hit them all. Ajax is absolutely beautiful and is definitely a party mountain. You should know how to ski or board intermediately here. Buttermilk, on the other hand, has plenty to explore for the beginner rider. It’s a great place to learn to ski trees as well and is very family friendly. Stoked to go back to try the other 2 mountains: Snowmass and Highlands.

Snow is needed badly but we got about 6 inches of fresh which made it quite good for the amount of snow we had. Groomers were icy and thin in spots. New black runs had recently opened so they were good and actually had mogul lines without rocks which was shocking. No lift lines for the most part. Friendly staff.

We enjoyed skiing an staying in Snowmass. Great variety of runs, quality lifts, friendly staff. Food options were however better in Aspen. It’s a short drive though. Crestwood Condos were a super convenient ski in ski out option. Four Mountain Skis for rentals. Best coffee at Gorsuch.

It was amazing, I would totally go back. Just the greatest time. Highly recommended trip. Staff was really friendly

Love these mountains so many optional and not a lot of crowds. Something definitely available for everyone depending on what mood you in for. Has actual mountain too

There is really great terrain and each of the different mountains and you can access any type of terrain for any class of skier.

Truly is a massive resort. Plenty of terrain for all types of riders and a large culture and friendly learning environment. Truly my favorite slope and with the constant influx of professionals practicing in the area it’s just surreal overall.

Aspen Snowmass is the best resort aroundA! Wide open, steep, super deep, no crowds!! DiSilva is the best instructor they have! Book him!

I genuinely like the vibe at Aspen Snowmass. There are 4 mountains to choose from and they all give different energies. Unfortunately this year they haven’t gotten much snow so not much terrain has been groomed. If youre into massive park features then this is a good spot even with the lack of snow. They have ajax & highland for partying and apres. Buttermilk and snowmass for a more family friendly vibe.

We had a great time at The Crestwood Condominiums, staff was friendly and helpful. We got to the resort just after a couple of storms, so the conditions were perfect.

was not the best overcrowded and overpriced for most of it. skiing was fun beside lack of snowfall compared to normal. runs are good and can ski uninterrupted for a while

Snowmass is a massive mountain so many runs from beginner to advanced. With a long trick park. Many spots to stop eat and drink. How highly recommended for family’s or groups of friends

Great resort, world class food, fun apres ski, no lines for the lifts. Busses available in the village to other resorts as well. Pricey
Would definitely return.

The skiing is amazing, mountain works well together lifts placed strategically and effectively. The snow wasn’t the best when I was there, but it still kept up and there was enough places untouched the snow was almost never a problem. There’s much on the mountain, but it gets crowded fast, everything very central a few small huts scattered about. The town is very quit and amazing getting around is enjoyable and fun.

Great variety of terrain amongst the 4 mountains. Snow hasn’t been great this year but it’s coming. Love Aspen Highlands and the bowl. More of a low key vibe and no lines.

Really fun mountain with lots of run options and incredible atmosphere, apres ski and food. Easy to get around with public free bus too!

Love coming to Aspen especially this last storm system! Happy to see it flowing. Don’t forget to hit cloud 9!

The hotels in Aspen could use better hot tubs for having to pay over a thousand night to stay there. The workers at Buttermilk treated me horrible while I was there. I would never go back there again

With 4 ski areas the crowds are always spread out and there is never a lift line. The Highlands Bowl is the best in-resort terrain anywhere.
