Aspen/Snowmass opened Thanksgiving Day. Aspen Mountain has limited runs open with top-to-bottom skiing, 3,267 feet of vertical, while Snowmass has nearly 100 acres and limited runs with 2,100 feet of vertical. Aspen Mountain opened with four trails and 48 acres of skiing all of it at the top of the hill with 1,100 feet of vertical. Snowmass opened with seven trails and 93 acres of terrain and more than 2,100 feet of vertical. We also received some snow in Helsinki, but I guess we need to wait another month before starting the ski season in Finland.
The Aspen Winternational Audi FIS Alpine World Cup races were held last weekend. The Giant Slalom kicked off the event on Saturday and the Slalom continued on Sunday. Robert Randolph and the Family Band played the first Bud Light Hi-Fi Concert of the season at the base of Aspen Mountain on Saturday. Finally fireworks were shot over Aspen Mountain.
