| As a ski area, Snowmass is the giant among the four Aspen options—and one of Colorado's biggest as well, with the nation's second-greatest vertical. It is huge, sprawling over a complex landscape of peaks, ridges, gullies, and open slopes that offer the greatest range of terrain, from the gentle precincts of Fanny Hill to the broad cruising expanse of the Big Burn to a wide variety of steeps. Innovative programs and on-slope facilities abound. As a resort, Snowmass offers a congenial slopeside village and some of the best accommodations for families. It's subdued compared with nearby Aspen, but the action is just a bus ride away.
Where: 12 miles from Aspen, off Colorado 82. What's There: 4,406-foot vertical drop, 87 trails, 3,100 acres, seven high-speed quads, two triples, six doubles, six surface lifts, three snowboard parks, speed skiing, and race arenas.
