Aspen Highlands is the local's favorite mountain due to the
fact that it is not nearly as tourist infected as the other
3 Aspen mountains. It is not necessarily the tourists that
are the problem, but the other 3 mountains have changed a
lot to fit the tourist needs. Aspen Highlands, on the other
hand, has been unadulterated.
Editors Note: The Highlands has terrain suited for
any level of skiing/snowboarding with % of each difficulty
well spread out. For those of you who like the extreme stuff,
Aspen Highlands certainly can take care of your appetite as
well.
