WHAT'S NEW!
A host of on-mountain improvements will greet skiers and riders for the 2007-2008 season. The NEW Treehouse Kids’ Adventure Center – our largest capital project to date – is basecamp for all things family! As the centerpiece for kids programming at Aspen/Snowmass, The Treehouse stands as the first of its kind in the snowsports industry. The NEW Elk Camp Meadows learning area brings beginners into the high-alpine with a dedicated quad chair. Introduced last season, the new Elk Camp Gondola makes quick work of the distance from the new base village to Elk Camp Meadows in less than ten minutes.
Other on-mountain upgrades for 2007-2008 include a new and improved Snow Park Technologies terrain park and halfpipe area, while future projects such as the new Elk Camp Meadows activity center and the new Sam’s Knob restaurant are just a season away.
