Yes, I know that this site is for skiing in the Northeast, but yet I need your help. I am taking a trip out west and am staying in Silverthorne/Dillon Colorado and skiing various mountains within a 2.5 hour driving time. I am willing to take one day trip out to the city of Aspen to ski.
I need your opinion. Which one is better, Aspen Highlands or Snowmass Mountain? All the websites online say to "make sure to hit both" but obviously I can't do that because I only have one day.
NOTE: I will NOT be going to Aspen Mountain/Bell mountain (aka the one with the silverqueen gondola). So keep in mind that the choice is between Highlands and Snowmass.
(They should really name all these mountains something completely different---too many things are named "Aspen"!)
