Aspen, Colorado, is one of the best skiing destinations in
the country. It is difficult to find budget vacation packages for this
destination in the middle of ski season. On February 10, we stumbled across a
great one from Sky Holidays. It
includes a coach class discount airline
ticket, six nights in a condominium, and car rental for one week, all
starting at just $906.
The condominium could not be in a better location, as it is
only four blocks east of the Aspen Silver Queen Gondola for Snowmass and Aspen
Mountain. The gondola itself is a treat, offering panoramic views of the Elk
Mountains along its 2.5 mile, 3,000 vertical-foot journey. It unloads at the
Aspen Mountain summit, which towers 11,212 feet above sea level.
Skiers in Aspen receive four vacations in one because they
can experience the quadruple peaks of Snowmass, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk,
and Aspen Mountain with a single lift ticket. Cheap airline tickets put more than 5,300 acres of terrain at their
feet, along with countless restaurants and great nightlife. Between the
on-mountain dining options and restaurants in town, you will never go hungry.
A rental car will come in handy because Aspen features
breathtaking scenery like Maroon Bells mountains and the Independence Pass
scenic drive and lookout. Travelers wanting to experience local culture should
take in a show at the Wheeler Opera House. This small theater is the venue for
most of the Aspen Film Festival showings.
The included studio accommodations sleep two people and
feature a cozy fireplace. During the past 24 hours, Aspen received six inches
of snow, resulting in a total base of 56 inches at Snowmass and Aspen
Highlands, 38 inches at Buttermilk, and 32 inches at Aspen Mountain. More snow
is expected on Sunday, so click here

and vacation package now.
