Looking like me and mrs.sugatowng are heading to ski Snowmass and Aspen after the first of the year.. I've skied many times in Colorodo and was even married in Vail.

Any recommendations on what mountain to spend most of my time. We are staying in a ski-in/ski-out in Snowmass Village.

I would say I'm an intermediate skiier preferring Blues and Blue/Black's. I'd say the same for the wifey...

Any restaurants to hitup?

TIA

Buttercup is the mostly green and blue mountain. Snowmass is kinda mixed. You can find whatever you are looking for there I think but I think it's a lot of easy stuff. The other two have more difficult stuff and are right on top of downtown aspen. Buttercup and snowmass are a few miles away. Awesome views in aspen.

Definitely see a show at belly up. They have the nationsl, the crystal method, kevin nealon, boombox, phoenix, sts9 and others in january. It's a small venue that gets top notch acts. Basically everyone that's not lady gaga or u2 Schedule

There is a nice group of young bulldogs in aspen.

I backpacked around the Maroon Bells and Snowmass with some friends right after we graduated high school. Road tripped all the way from Florida. Absurdly beautiful area and Aspen is a nice town. Never skied it though.
