The trail map of the Aspen ski area shows how extensive the terrain is - far too much to cover in a weeks holiday and thats without mentioning the back-country options - this is Colorado's largest ski area spread over over 4 main mountains.

• Aspen Highlands - a favorite skiing location for locals, with trails that are usually less crowded than other local ski resorts

• Buttermilk is set within the White River National Forest and just 3 miles from Aspen. The terrain is suitable to snowboarders and beginners with 42 trails and one of the longest terrain parks in the world
• Snowmass - just 9 miles from downtown Aspen, this is largest ski resort, offering a vast range of terrain to suit all levels
