Looking for lift tickets? Click Here For More Info ABOUT ASPEN HIGHLANDSAspen Highlands is a 12,500-foot mountain with ambiance and attitude. It is meant to be skied—hard. With 970 acres to play in and a 3,635-foot vertical, the mountain is skewed to the advanced skier and is constantly looking for ways to challenge further those up to the task. Deep Temerity, a speedy triple chair, climbs 1,700 vertical feet in just over seven minutes and accesses acres of new, advanced, and expert landscape. Plenty of mid-mountain, easier terrain to practice on before hitting the steps. But for the locals, it’s all about the Highland Bowl—an off-piste thrill ride—which culminates in untracked descents down 45-degree pitches.
