Now the Details
The 25th Silver Anniversary Ski Bonanza over President Day weekend, February 17th – 20th offers exciting skiing and snowboarding on the well groomed and non-groomed slopes, trails and bowls of Aspen featuring the best snow in the nation, along with two new activity venues during the weekend. Coupled with this are fun non-skiing adventures for those for whom Green, Blue and Black are only colors. Alpine/Downhill Skiing Ski the advanced, intermediate and beginner trails of Aspen Buttermilk, Highlands, Mountain and Snowmass set into the spectacular setting of the Maroon Bells mountain range. With over 300 inches of annual snowfall, cutting tracks in the deep powder is too much fun in America’s best skiing and board riding. Being a first time skier is no problem with ski schools and beginner slopes available to insure you advance quickly. Intermediate skiers and board riders will have your choice of 50% of the runs at all four areas. And for those advanced skiers, if you haven’t met the challenge of “AJAX”, this is the trip, this is the time. Non-Skiing Adventures Those nonskiers also have a great time off the slopes as well. The Ski Bonanza invites you to kick up a rooster tail on a snowmobile, enjoy the serenity and beauty of the mountains while making tracks snowshoeing, or the fun of a horse drawn sleigh ride to a four star restaurant. Break out the camera for sightseeing and shopping or enjoy a relaxing spa and massage. Also make time to enjoy the internationally famous Glenwood Hot Springs.
