The Power of Four: Part Two - Aspen Highlands
Aspen Highlands Mountain will be the focus of part two, in the Power of Four. Locals call Aspen Highlands their favorite mountain to ski, and their predilection for this 12,500-foot mountain is not unfounded. Aspen Highlands has over 970 acres of extreme terrain, groomed cruisers and breathtaking views of the Maroon Bells. Lift lines at Aspen Highlands tend to be minimal as most skiers are hiking to Highland Bowl - the ultimate off-piste experience. This ski season, the new Deep Temerity lift will only make the skiing experience at Aspen Highlands more amazing than it already is. Deep Temerity features a new triple chair, which rises 1,700 vertical feet in 7.3 minutes and gives access to 180 acres of new advanced, expert and extreme terrain. The lift will allow for new acreage to be added in future years, eventually leading to an additional 270 acres of new terrain. Below is a picture of the bowl and a view looking at the bowl including the spectacular panoramic that you see from the top - a nice reward after a long hike.
