About the Area

The ski resort is known for its family-friendly atmosphere and beginner-friendly terrain. It is located at the base of Buttermilk Mountain, which is one of the four mountains that make up the Aspen Snowmass ski area. Buttermilk Mountain has a summit elevation of 9,900 feet and offers a variety of terrain for skiers and snowboarders of all levels.
Other notable mountains in the Aspen Snowmass ski area include Aspen Mountain, Snowmass Mountain, and Highlands Mountain. Each mountain offers unique terrain and breathtaking views for visitors to enjoy.
The best trails for intermediate to advanced skiers are the Upper and Lower Buttermilk, which offer challenging runs with steep pitches and mogul fields. For beginner skiers, the T-Bar trail is a great option, with gentle slopes and wide runs. An interesting fact about Buttermilk Resort is that it was originally a dairy farm, and the ski lodge is housed in the old barn. For apres ski, the Barrie country club is a popular choice, with a cozy fireplace and live music on weekends.
