Aspen Mountain, Ski resort in Colorado, United States
Aspen Mountain rises to an elevation of 11,212 feet, featuring over 3,342 skiable acres with runs primarily designed for intermediate and expert level skiers.
The mountain transformed from a mining site in the Elk Mountains to a ski destination when the first ski race was organized by The Roaring Fork Winter Sports Club in 1937.
The Silver Queen Gondola represents the central point for winter sports enthusiasts, connecting Durant Street to the summit while offering mountain views during the ride.
The Hero's lift provides access to 153 additional acres of terrain, with specific uphill policies requiring climbers to reach the summit before 9:00 am.
The mountain maintained a no-snowboarding policy until April 1, 2001, making it the final mountain among the four Aspen Skiing Company properties to accept snowboarders.
