Aspen Snowmass Announces New Product Line-Up, 2020-2021 Pricing and Winter Operations Plans Aspen Snowmass Announces New Product Line-Up, 2020-2021 Pricing and Winter Operations Plans New Products Include Valley Weekday Pass and Valley 7-Pack Premier Pass Remains and Once Again Includes a Free Ikon Base Pass ASPEN SNOWMASS, Colo. – Sept. 24, 2020 – Aspen Snowmass announces a new pass line- up and will resume selling 2020-2021 season passes Wednesday, Oct. 7. New this year, the Valley Weekday Pass and the Valley 7-Pack will join the Premier Pass, offering a range of products that allow purchasers to customize their access and experience. The new products offer great value and flexibility and will help manage capacity at the busiest times of the season. “Skiing feels more vital than ever this season, a chance to connect with nature and enjoy time outside with friends and family. So, we’ve worked thoughtfully to come up with a pass and ticketing strategy that addresses the reality of operating in a pandemic and maximizes our chances of staying open for the full season,” says Mike Kaplan, president and CEO, Aspen Skiing Company. “Our passes and pricing this season are designed to spread people out and enable capacity controls should the pandemic require them. The product selection will allow our guests to choose the product that works best for them, and to contribute to keeping the season going through April.” The new Valley Weekday Pass is for Roaring Fork Valley residents only and gives passholders a full season of access to the four mountains of Aspen Snowmass, Monday through Friday, with a handful of days blacked out over the Holidays, and costs $899 for Chamber members ($999 non-Chamber) through Nov. 13. Additional days can be purchased for weekends and the holiday blackout period at a discount of at least 50 percent off the 1-day ticket rate. The discount amount will vary throughout the season, and will be displayed online at www.aspensnowmass.com/valleypass. Valley Weekday Passholders can add one Valley 7-Pack to their purchase giving passholders unlimited weekday skiing and seven weekend days for the best available price. The new Valley 7-Pack costs $399 through Nov. 13, and gives purchasers seven days throughout the season, with a limited number of blackout dates over the holidays, with the flexibility to add more days, or days during the blackout period, for at least 50 percent off the 1- day ticket rate. This product is for Roaring Fork Valley residents only. Pricing for additional days will be displayed online at www.aspensnowmass.com/valleypass. Aspen Skiing Company is providing a complimentary Gratitude Valley 7-Pack to all Roaring Fork Valley teachers and school workers and select frontline workers at area hospitals. In addition, select employees on the front lines at area grocery stores will receive a complimentary Gratitude Valley 7-Pack. “It has been inspiring to see our valley come together over the last six months, and we owe a huge debt to our essential workers who keep our community going,” says Kaplan. “This is our small way of saying thank you, and giving these committed workers the opportunity to get out in the fresh cold mountain air and make some turns.” The Premier Pass, which provides unlimited skiing/riding across all four mountains with no blackout dates, an Ikon Base Pass, more than $1,000 in exclusive benefits, and unlimited summer gondola and chairlift sightseeing access, costs $1,799 for Chamber members ($2,399 non-Chamber) through Nov. 13, 2020. The exclusive benefits include transferable vouchers providing discounts on lift tickets, lessons and rentals in addition to passholder discounts of 50 percent off lift tickets at Mountain Collective destinations, and discounts on ski/snowboard lessons and rentals from Four Mountain Sports. Premier senior passes cost $1,799, Premier Child, Teen and College cost $899, and Premier Silver costs $819. New safety protocols will be instituted across every aspect of the business, including new technology that will allow for contactless commerce and pick-up of season passes. Operating procedures will include distancing protocols, face-coverings, limits in buildings and all recommended health and safety measures from County and State agencies. In addition, redesigned operating procedures will be introduced in ski school, lift lines, on-mountain dining and in rental and retail stores. New technology will allow for “digital distancing” with many of the processes that formerly took place in person. “The health and safety of our community, employees and guests is our ultimate goal, and everyone should understand that we each play a part in this season’s success,” says Kaplan. “We learned a great deal through our summer operations and we have been applying that to our plan for winter.” Businesses located and operating in the Roaring Fork Valley and that are members of the Chamber of Commerce in the community in which the business is operating are eligible to purchase Chamber Pass vouchers for their qualifying employees and employees’ spouses. A new electronic process will be used for Chamber pass purchases. There are two pricing deadlines for individual and Chamber member Premier, Valley Weekday and Valley 7-Pack products: ♦ Early, which offers the best rates on all season passes, for passes purchased through Nov. 13, 2020 ♦ Regular, for passes purchased after Nov. 13, 2020 All season passes are good for early and late-season openings. Season passes are nontransferable. Passes are fully refundable through November [21] (if unused), thereafter, passes are nonrefundable. Fraudulent use is subject to a fee. 2019-2020 Passholder Credit Details In recognition of the abbreviated 2019-20 season, Aspen Snowmass issued all 2019-20 passholders credit to apply towards 2020-2021 purchases. Credits are valid on all Aspen Snowmass pass, lift ticket, activity, rental and lesson purchases through April 30, 2021. Credits are not valid for on-mountain dining or hotel stays at Limelight or The Little Nell properties. Credits do not have to be used in one transaction. Credits may be used for online, over-the- phone and in-person purchases. Credits cannot be redeemed for cash. Credits for Chamber passes were issued to the business that purchased the pass, not the individual passholder. Reservations Aspen Snowmass intends to start the season without requiring reservations on any Aspen Snowmass products. *1 Reservations may become required based on prevailing state and local Covid-19 metrics as determined by health and government agencies. Should these metrics show an increased rate of community spread that initiates additional restrictions and regulations, we may implement a reservations system across all products. If this happens we cannot guarantee that every passholder will be able to obtain a reservation on the days they want. The system can flex based on changing metrics. * Ikon passholders are all required to make a reservation through the Ikon reservation system, though we intend to start the season with no limitation on inventory. Mountain Collective passholders are strongly encouraged to pre-fulfill before arriving. Refund Policy If operations are shut down due to Covid-19 for 10 or more days of the season, we will issue refunds, prorated for each day we are fully shut down compared to our published season dates, for all passes, except the Valley 7-Pack and Classic Pass. Refunds will not be issued in the event we implement a reservation system regardless of whether you are able to obtain a reservation for your desired days. All pass products are 100% refundable through November 20, 2020. Unused day tickets are fully refundable. Blackout Dates Valley Weekday and Valley 7-Pack blackout dates are December 26, 2020 - January 2, 2021 and February 13 - 14, 2021. Discounted extension days may be purchased during these periods.

  • ASPEN MOUNTAIN Master Development Plan
    ASPEN MOUNTAIN Master Development 2018 PlanDraft This is the final draft of the Aspen Mt Ski Area Master Development Plan submitted to the Forest Service by Aspen Skiing Company 1/8/2018. A publication quality document will be produced with final formatting and technical editing. II. DESIGN CRITERIA Establishing design criteria is an important component in mountain planning. Following is an overview of the basic design criteria upon which the Aspen Mountain MDP is based. A. DESTINATION RESORTS One common characteristic of destination resorts is that they cater to a significant vacation market and thus offer the types of services and amenities vacationers expect. At the same time, some components of the destination resort are designed specifically with the day-use guest in mind. Additionally, the employment, housing, and community services for both full-time and second-home residents created by destination resorts all encourage the development of a vital and balanced community. This interrelationship is helpful to the long-term success of the destination resort. Destination mountain resorts can be broadly defined by the visitation they attract, which is, in most instances, either regional or national/international. Within these categories are resorts that are purpose-built and others that are within, or adjacent to, existing communities. Aspen Mountain and the adjacent City of Aspen is an example of such a resort that exists adjacent to an existing community that is rich in cultural history, and provides a destination guest with a sense of the Mountain West and the mining and ski history of Colorado. This combination of a desirable setting and history supplements the overall experience of a guest visiting Aspen Mountain, which has become a regional, national, and international destination resort.

  • The Evolution of Ski Resort Sustainability: from On-Mountain Efficiency to Environmental Activism by Kate M. Prendergast Departm
    The Evolution of Ski Resort Sustainability: From On-Mountain Efficiency to Environmental Activism By Kate M. Prendergast Department of Environmental Science Allegheny College Meadville, Pennsylvania April 2011 Name: Kate Prendergast Date: Spring, 2011 Major: Environmental Studies Thesis Committee: Dr. Michael Maniates, Dr. Richard Bowden Title: The Evolution of Ski Resort Sustainability: From On-Mountain Efficiency to Environmental Activism Abstract: Because ski resorts rely on stable environmental conditions and pristine mountain landscapes for their success, the resort industry has a major stake in the climate change issue. This research project examines the steps the industry has taken to address its environmental impacts, from on- mountain mitigation strategies to political advocacy. Research into ski resort impacts and mitigation and interviews with industry leaders were conducted to gather the data used in this project. There is significant data available regarding resort impacts, but little academic information that addresses the current state of ski resort sustainability. Resorts must be taken at their word regarding many environmental claims, and the industry has been accused of greenwashing. Therefore, further research into ski resort sustainability is needed to close this gap. Moving forward, the industry must find strategies to encourage broader participation in sustainability frameworks and climate policy to ensure the future of skiing and snowboarding. This study found that a stronger industry sustainability framework, national

  • Draft of Comments for WWRNF DEIS TMP…
    Our mission is to create and sustain the best possible mountain bike trail system and experience in the Roaring Fork Valley. January 30, 2014 TO: Upper Roaring Fork Trails Plan, Planning Team RE: Comments for URFTP, Mountain Bike User Group Meeting In this document, we intend to address the overall goals for this Trails Plan from a mountain bike trail user’s perspective. These comments are based upon our detailed knowledge of the area and our experiences riding great trails both within and beyond the Roaring Fork area. Using the IMBA Ride Center evaluation system as a guide helps us to understand the types of trails and amenities we should hope to include in this planning process. Achieving a Gold medal rated IMBA Ride Center would mean we’ve achieved many of our trail quality and quantity goals while at the same time providing a valuable community trail network that both locals and visitors will enjoy for years to come. While our focus is mountain bike trails, we are fortunate in that our trail system is not over crowded, and there is almost always plenty of room to share the trail with other user types. While we expect most of the trails in the network will continue to be open and used by hikers, dog walkers, runners, and the occasional equestrian, we are interested in studying separated uses if and when bike specific trails are designed with features that are downhill oriented. The following pages include big picture goals and specific location based ideas that should be studied in the context of existing conditions maps.

  • Aspen Mountain Master Development Plan
    ASPEN MOUNTAIN Master Development 2018 PlanDraft This is the final draft of the Aspen Mt Ski Area Master Development Plan submitted to the Forest Service by Aspen Skiing Company 1/8/2018. A publication quality document will be produced with final formatting and technical editing. I. INTRODUCTION This 2017 Master Development Plan for Aspen Mountain amends and updates the existing 1997 Aspen Mountain Master Plan (AMMP). This Master Development Plan (MDP) provides a detailed assessment of existing facilities and operations on Aspen Mountain, as well as a comprehensive overview of planned elements within the Aspen Mountain Special Use Permit (SUP) area and on private lands. The MDP discusses planned year-round activities, including both winter and summer components slated for implementation over the next ten to fifteen years. United States Forest Service (Forest Service) acceptance of this MDP is consistent with the requirements of the Aspen Mountain SUP, but does not approve any projects contained within the document. The MDP is designed to be dynamic, and may be amended periodically to reflect new developments in facilities and recreation. Pitkin County’s acceptance of this MDP will be via a separate Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) Resolution and Ordinance. The White River National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan – 2002 Revision (2002 Forest Plan) provides the following direction for the preparation and utilization of ski area MDPs: “A Master Development Plan is part of each ski area’s special use permit. MDPs are prepared by the permit holder and accepted by the Forest Service. They describe the improvements and facilities that are authorized at each resort and are the guiding document used to describe the expected future condition for the resort.
