Buttermilk Mountain
Home of the ESPN Winter X Games through 2010! Buttermilk also welcomes beginners. Less experienced riders cruise wide, rolling trails while experts jib in the new Snow Park Technologies (SPT) terrain park. Continuing Aspen/Snowmass' commitment to family skiing and riding, a new high-speed quad chair with a midway load station was added recently, replacing the existing West Buttermilk chair and encouraging families, young children and beginners to experience West Buttermilk's more gentle trails.
