In addition to great skiing, Aspen Highlands is home to the legendary Highland Bowl. This is a place where experts can push their limits, and they get to do it by hiking the bowl in their ski or snowboard boots.
Boot packing the bowl is a grueling but rewarding experience that bonds the base of the snow to the ground, allowing the Aspen Highlands Ski Patrol to open the longest and steepest skiing in Colorado. Locals who volunteer for 15 days of packing are given a full ski pass, and they get to work with the patrol.
