Aspen, Colorado:
Abundant early season snowfall has prompted Aspen Skiing Co. to open Aspen Mountain ahead of schedule on Saturday.
Skico announced today that Silver Queen Gondola and Ajax Express will be open, giving skiers and snowboarders access to 120 acres of terrain. A recent storm brought more than 21 inches to Aspen Mountain, which will offer top-to-bottom skiing.
“We aim to open and bring skiing and riding to the community and our guests as soon as we can,” Skico Chief Operating Officer David Perry said in a statement. “We are a ski town, we have the snow and we are pleased to start spinning the lifts.”
