That’s right, the top of Aspen Mountain is open for skiing and riding on Memorial Day Weekend, May 28-30.

“We haven’t had summer conditions this good since 2008,” quipped Rich Burkley, vice president mountain operations. “We figure that if we open for skiing maybe it will quit snowing. We encourage everyone to go up and make a few turns then jump on your bike, hit the trails or swing the golf club. It’s certainly a unique opportunity to enjoy everything the valley has to offer.”

Premier, Premier Silver and 6-and-under passholders are free with their 2010-11 winter passes.

My parents are going to be in town and hittin’ the slopes for the first time in 20 years! Keep your fingers crossed for them …
