Aspen Mountain
open summer
Aspen Mountain, and its famous black-diamond terrain, has kept our mountain on the map since 1947. In bounds Aspen Mountain offers a variety of glades, bumps and steeps. For an out-of-bounds experience, Aspen Mountain Powder Tours will hook you up with fresh tracks on the backside. While the mountain hasn't changed much, you'll appreciate the new gondola, great views and food at the Sundeck at the summit and Ajax Tavern at the base, where the apres rivals the skiing and snowboarding. Come visit Aspen Mountain today.
