Aspen/Snowmass Ski Resorts Closing Weekends
Closing weekends are approaching quickly and it's hard to believe this 2010/2011 ski season is almost over! But with the "Power of Four" Mountains it doesn't all come to a screaming halt!

- Closing Day is planned for April 3, 2011 - Play and ski on the last day of the season at Buttermilk! Don't miss the new event Red Bull Buttercup! Watch this crazy rail jam with
riders of all levels to come show off their most creative skills on a custom butter park. Only trick sequences that feature buttering will count and riders will be judged on style and creativity.
- : April 10, 2011 - stay tuned because depending on how much snow we continue to get and the final snow conditions these dates can be extended and changed!
- April 24, 2011 - Due to a late Easter this spring, Aspen/Snowmass will have one of its longest seasons to date. Aspen Highlands will stay open for three more weeks than usual through April 24, providing guests more time to experience spring skiing in Aspen/Snowmass. Sunny days, spring powder, live music and après parties will keep the 2010-2011 season going longer than ever.
- While you enjoy the spring skiing by day, be entertained at night with the annual AspenFilm Shortsfest. Watch some of the best shortsfest new to the planet right at the Wheeler Opera House in Aspen!
