Aspen is everything you've heard. glitzy, flashy, the home of "the beautiful people" but more than that it's a really great place to ski. If you've reached that point in life where the bumps are too hard on your knees, when you want to stop when you want to, when what you really want is to ski something steep enough to be exhilarating yet not intimidating, when you want it to be smooth enough to make just the turn you wanted and you don't care if someone saw that "perfect turn", it was enough that you just did it. Then you've come home.
Ajax mountain, as the locals call the mountain above the town, is a revelation. Gone are the cliches of "poseurs" and "hanger's on", this is a real skiers mountain that will keep you entertained for day after day. When and if you tire of this gem you can always take the shuttle bus to one of the other three mountains that the Aspen ski pass includes - Buttermilk, Highlands and of course Snowmass. You will not be bored!
The town its self has everything a big city has without losing the mountain village charm. From the fabulous food of the Motherlode to quick and tasty burger bars.
Aspen has it all and yes it is a little more expensive than the other ski towns but it is a little more special!
For summer 2006 we will bring you golf in Aspen!
