Next Year, Ski Trip.. Aspen or Park City?

i've been going there my whole life so i might be kinda biased but you should definitely go to Aspen. its got 4 amazing mountains and crowds are almost nonexistent. its kinda expensive though but with the economy the way it is you should be able to find some good deals
 
yeah but at park city you are super close to snowbird and alta which have better skiing than aspen. But they would both be sick. If this trip is after the xgames then go to aspen because then you could ski the xgames course.
 
Park City is just so much easier to get to (30 min from airport, Aspen is 4 hrs from Denver) and the resorts are pretty comparable. Nightlife is similar although Aspen has slight edge. PC has better terrain park and more snow.

I would say PC because it is just so much easier and cheaper for skiing that is the same or better.
 
were lookin for a sick park scene and a cool night life for teens were only 15. somewhere we can ski some pow if possible because we dont have real snow in our hometown mountain in ohio haha also some cool scenic trails since our trails here in ohio are are 2 minute rides at the most. also what resorts ?
 
not necessarily a like pro park, just like variety, scenic trails, legit park, and some sick pow (never seen in our lives).
 
Both have pow

Canyons in PC has a sweet beginners course thats super easy for everyone, 11 year old kid I know hits canyons' park. Both would be fantastic trips, I would go to PC because its slightly cheaper, but still crazy exspensive.
 
go to aspen. ski at snowmass. if you need to save money, stay down valley in carbondale or glenwood (30-45 min drive)... have fun!!
 
Depends on when you go. I went to Aspen a the start of Christmas break and they had a jumpline but not many rails. Pc seems to have everything up sooner.
 
Well what time of the year are you going? My choice is aspen, especially if you go after aspen open is done because buttermilk has the x games park and pipe open, and a park that goes from the very top of the mountain all the way down to the x games park. Their is also snowmass witch has a 22 foot pipe also and a super sick 3 set and tons of other jibs and rail and jumps, snowmass also has great terrain on the top of the mountain if it is a powder day so do aspen mountain and highlands. As far as night life goes aspen is super fun their is tons to do for a few 15 year olds.
 
An idea would be getting the epic pass and hit all of colorado's sickest parks, if you can get a way of travelling around and if you stay more than a week
 
nah its right in aspen.
but flying in there is gonna be uber expensive. plus idk if anyone flys in there commercially anymore.
