What a Storm!

What a storm! 21 inches of white fluffy snow fell the last 2 days, causing the Aspen Schools to close for 2 days. The kids and teachers are out on the hill enjoy the fresh powder!

The slopes are open and the skiing and riding is fabulous. The Big Burn opened yesterday. The new Gondola will open on December 15th.

If you have not made your reservations its’ not too late but call soon as we are running out of space!

Thanksgiving was another success at the Chalet. We sold out and enjoyed a wonderful traditional Thanksgiving dinner. The skiing was the best, but everyone seemed to enjoy the holiday anyway.

Snow and Opening day!

We received an abundance of snow these past few days. The hill will be waiting to all of the skiers and boarders next week. It’s going to be a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!

If you are looking for a white Christmas, give us a call at the Snowmass Mountain Chalet. Snowmass Village has white slopes, brightly lit with holiday cheer. Santa and carolers strolling will be wondering the Snowmass Village Mall and Christmas lights twinkle throughout the Village:

December 23: The annual Torchlight Parade down Snowmass' slopes is magnificently luminous, and families with kid’s ages 8 and older are invited to participate in this trail of light down the mountain.

Ski & Snowboard Season is almost here!

The hotel is almost ready for our Thanksgiving guests. The guest rooms look great. We think you will really like our new look! We are looking forward to seeing everyone again as we host our 7th Annual Thanksgiving Day celebration and dinner.

Some area activities happening are:

Nov. 25-26, Aspen
Sirius Satellite Radio Aspen Winternational Audi FIS Women’s Ski World Cup
It sounds like a mouthful but promises an eyeful when the fastest women in the world head to town for two days of Giant Slalom and Slalom competitions. Aspen/Snowmass is the only place on U.S. soil to see such American faves as Olympic Gold medalist Julia Mancuso, Lindsay Kildow, Resi Steigler, and Stacey Cook compete.
Comedy at the Cabaret

Nov. 24, Snowmass
Need a good laugh? The Silvertree Hotel presents Louis Johnson and Steve Gastineau in a hilarious evening for adult’s age 21 and older. Comedy at the Cabaret is the perfect antidote to the rubber legs you'll incur from your first day out on the slopes.
