Join the Dallas Ski Club for our annual Aspen Ski trip! We'll be staying at The Gant again this year. What better way to welcome the month than with a visit to our favorite annual party place in this extraordinary winter home of the rich & famous! Whether you are a beginner, a dedicated blue cruiser, a double-black rated Perro Grande, a racer going for those next level medals and trophies, or an après-ski lover at Little Nell dancing all night, you are sure to have a great time!
Aspen, Colorado boasts four world-class ski mountains—Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk, and Snowmass—each offering unique terrain for all skill levels. Aspen Mountain, right in town, features steep, challenging runs favored by experts, while Buttermilk is ideal for beginners and families with its gentle slopes and famous terrain parks. Snowmass provides the largest area with diverse trails and incredible views, and Aspen Highlands is known for its thrilling Highland Bowl and expert double-black diamond runs. Together, they form the Aspen Snowmass resort, delivering some of the best skiing in North America with reliable snow and stunning Rocky Mountain scenery.
Aspen’s après-ski scene is lively and upscale, perfect for unwinding after a day on the slopes. Popular spots like the Little Nell, Ajax Tavern, and Cloud Nine offer cozy vibes with craft cocktails, live music, and hearty mountain fare. You can also enjoy shopping along the charming streets of downtown Aspen, visit art galleries, or relax with a spa treatment at one of the luxurious resorts. For something active, try ice skating or snowshoeing before settling in by a fireplace with a glass of wine or hot cocoa. The town’s vibrant nightlife ensures there’s always something exciting to do after skiing.
Let's rock Aspen! Join us for our favorite annual ski trip! Sign up now - it will fill up fast!
