  • Aspen Snowmass 20-21 Chamber Letter
    October 6, 2020 Dear Business Owner/Manager, As another ski season approaches, it is time to roll out our Chamber Pass Program for the 2020-21 season. As I am sure most of you have heard by now, we made some significant changes to our pass program this year. As you all know, this season will be like nothing we have seen before and it is going to take all of us working together to keep the season alive through April. The new Valley Weekday Pass offers great value for those with flexible schedules, and the Valley 7-Pack is the perfect option for the occasional skiers and riders. Combining those two products provides tremendous value and flexibility. The Chamber Premier Pass is also available, and for the second year, it includes a complimentary Ikon Base Pass. While our ticket offices remain open, we have introduced new technology to allow you to complete your Chamber Pass purchase without visiting a ticket office. Use this link to complete an online order form. Instructions for providing payment for online purchases are included on the order form. The attached guidelines should be helpful in planning your winter, but as always do not hesitate to go onto aspensnowmass.com for more information or to call us at 877-872- 7702. We appreciate your continued support of this discount program. WHAT’S HAPPENING AT ASPEN SNOWMASS New Big Burn Chairlift at Snowmass This summer, we replaced the Big Burn lift on Snowmass with a new six-passenger, high-speed chairlift as the old lift had reached its ‘operational lifetime.

  • Aspen Skiing Co. Vs Aspen Highlands Skiing Corp
    Arash Etemad presents The 1985 Supreme Court Case of ASPEN SKIING CO. v. ASPEN HIGHLANDS SKIING CORP Background • Aspen Skiing Co. owned one of four major ski resorts in Aspen, Colorado; Aspen Highlands Skiing Corp. owned the other three • In 1979, Aspen Skiing Co. filed a treble-damages action in Federal District Court alleging Aspen Highlands Skiing Corp. had monopolized the downhill skiing market in Aspen and was in violation of §2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act • In 1985, the case was taken to the Supreme Court Sherman Antitrust Act §2 Monopolizing trade a felony; penalty Every person who shall monopolize, or attempt to monopolize, or combine or conspire with any other person or persons, to monopolize any part of the trade or commerce among the several States, or with foreign nations, shall be deemed guilty of a felony, and, on conviction thereof, shall be punished by fine not exceeding $10,000,000 if a corporation, or, if any other person, $350,000, or by imprisonment not exceeding three years, or by both said punishments, in the discretion of the court. The Good Times (Oligopoly) • Prior to 1977, there were only three major ski resorts in Aspen, all of which were independently owned • Each competitor offered its own daily and half-day ski passes, as well as a 6 day All- Aspen ticket • The All-Aspen ticket was a booklet containing six coupons, each redeemable at any of the three resorts. The coupons were voided if not used within six days of purchase, and were sold at a considerable discount to buying a separate lift ticket each day • Initially, the revenue from the sale of the coupons was distributed at the end of the year in accordance with the number of coupons collected at each resort • Later this policy was changed so that revenue was distributed based on a system of random-sample surveys that attempted to determine the percentage of All-Aspen pass users that would visit each resort And the Bad Times (Aggressive market share seeking) • In 1977, Aspen Highlands Skiing Corp.

  • Aspen Mountain Ski Resorts by Lisa Marie Mercer, Demand Media
    Aspen Mountain Ski Resorts by Lisa Marie Mercer, Demand Media The story of Aspen is a story of two dreams fulfilled. Friedl Pfeifer was a ski instructor who wanted to build a ski area in Aspen. Walter Paepcke was an industrialist who saw the town's potential as a mecca for cultural and intellectual pursuits. The men joined forces, and Aspen became a world class ski resort and center for the arts and culture. Aspen is actually a family of four resorts, which are accessed with one lift ticket. They function as a true family, sharing similar traits while displaying distinct differences in character and ambiance. Aspen Mountain The town of Aspen's commitment to opulence and elegance began in 1892, when the Macy department store magnate Jerome Wheeler built the luxurious Hotel Jerome and the extravagant Wheeler Opera House. The hotel continues to provide upscale accommodations, and the opera house is a thriving entertainment venue. Aspen Mountain is known for its steep terrain and lack of suitable beginner runs; but even if your skills are not up to par, the town itself is worth a visit. If you are over age 50 and want to conquer your fear of moguls, consider enrolling in one of Aspen's three or four-day "Bumps for Boomers" clinics. As of 2010, the three- day clinic costs $747, and a four-day clinic costs $996. Aspen/Snowmass P.O. Box 1248 Aspen, CO 81612 800-308-6935 aspensnowmass.com Snowmass Ski Resort Snowmass, thanks to its 25,000- square-foot Treehouse Kids' Adventure Center, is Aspen's most family-friendly resort.

  • Pitkin County at a Glance
    Pitkin County is on the Move. Please note these new locations during our 2-year construction project... 123 Emma Road | Suite 106 | Basalt, CO 81621 | www.pitkincounty.com PITKIN COUNTY AT A GLANCE GEOGRAPHY Covering 975 square miles, Pitkin County is located in the heart of the White River National Forest, surrounded by the spectacular peaks of the central Rocky Mountains. Pitkin County includes the communities of Aspen, Snowmass, Woody Creek, Old Snowmass, Meredith, Thomasville, Redstone and portions of the town of Basalt. DEMOGRAPHICS The total population of Pitkin County is 17,845 - an increase of 17% since 2000. The median age of residents is 43.4. The County is experiencing rapid increases in the population over the age of 65 with the number of persons over the age of 65 in 2045 expected to nearly double. The median household income of Pitkin County residents is $71,196, but the average wage per job is just $49,460 — 14% lower than the State average. Even though the County has been very prosperous over the past 40 years, there are still significant community sustainability concerns including the affordability of housing, healthcare, transportation and an aging workforce. ECONOMY Best known for its four world-class ski resorts — Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk and Snowmass, tourism is the mainstay of the local economy with arts, cultural and recreational events providing a year-round attraction. TRANSPORTATION Highway 82 is the only major roadway in Pitkin County leading into and out of Aspen via I 70 at Glenwood Springs to the north and over 12,000 foot Independence Pass to the south.
