S3 Park

(Ski and Snowboard Schools)
Location: Reds Rover Trail and accessed from the West Buttermilk Express lift.
The Gist: S3 consists of roughly 20 beginner- and intermediate-level features. There are several true table-top jumps ranging from 5 to 25 feet. The jibs include flat boxes, flat rails and a variety of shaped jibs (flat downs, bonks, rainbows and mini wall ride). This is a great park for entry- and low-intermediate level park riders, far from the prying eyes of lift riders and out of the way with lots of room to breathe.
Opens: Typically opens by mid-December, and evolving throughout the season due to snow conditions. rich-text

Midway Avenue Bank Track

Location: Midway Avenue Trail
The Gist: Whatever your skill level or choice of equipment, almost everyone can find joy and challenge in a well-executed carve on a carefully shaped berm. Once the home of the X Games ski and Boardercross courses, Midway now plays host to one of the most popular and accessible zones on any of Aspen Snowmass’ four mountains, as a flowing snake run winds, weaves, and rolls its way through mid mountain Buttermilk before rejoining the main park line at the top of Government trail.
Opens: Mid to Late December.

X Park

Location: Spruce and Government trails and accessed off of the Summit Express lift.
The Gist: This is the apex of Buttermilk's legendary freestyle terrain. X Park consists of approximately 25 advanced and expert features and is home to the famous 22-foot Zaugg cut Superpipe and Big Air Jump used in the ESPN Winter X Games.

Simply put, legendary professional reputations have been earned in this place.

In the X Park, ambitious and talented skiers and riders can test their skills against the same Slopestyle terrain as their X Games heroes, plus find hidden gems such as banked turns and rollers down the left side of Spruce on their way to the pipe.

Note: X Park usually opens just before Christmas, but shuts down for a little over one month shortly after the New Year. It reopens following the Aspen Snowmass Open. This closure is necessary due to the prep work needed to host the ESPN Winter X Games and the Aspen Snowmass Open, which are held on the same course as X slope-style. Following these two events, the slope-style course is only slightly altered before opening up to the public for the remainder of the season.
