Skiing Aspen Mountain Colorado

A bit overshadowed, literally, by Aspen Highlands and Snowmass Ski Area, I think that Aspen Mountain holds the best bang for your buck across the AspenSnowmass complex. The gondola rises top to bottom over 3000 vertical feet where you can ski quick long runs until you legs have had enough. Head over to the Shadow Mountain Lift also known as Lift 1A to ski the original trails dating back to the 1930s and 1940s. Aspen Mountain has a rich skiing history along with the rich mining history of Aspen that you really experience when you ski the mountain. Follow along as I take you through each zone of Aspen Mountain, each serviced by its own lift. 00:00 intro 00:37 Ajax Express Lift #3 03:00 FIS Lift#6 06:04 Ruthies Lift#8 12:45 Shadow Mountain Lift 1A 17:34 Mine Dump Zone 22:38 Gentlemans Ridge Lift#7 27:40 Bell Mountain Lift#5/ Silver Queen Gondola 34:52 Zoot Chute
