Aspen's Elk Mountains Gear Up for Epic Thanksgiving Pow Stashes
Ski Report for Aspen Snowmass, Colorado
Daily Ski Conditions for Aspen Snowmass, Colorado
Hey shredders, Aspen's Elk Mountains are gearing up for epic turns as Snowmass and Aspen Mountain fire up on November 27, just in time for Thanksgiving pow stashes. Think early-season vibes with snowmaking cranking on key runs, building that sweet base under projected colder nights perfect for machine-made fluff.
Right now, upper slopes boast about 53cm (21 inches) snow depth, thinning to 35cm (14 inches) at the base—mostly artificial cover keeping pistes firm and grippy for carving, while off-piste waits for fresh dumps to open up stashes. No new snow in the last 24-48 hours reported, but season totals are ramping from early October storms toward Aspen's beastly 307-inch annual average.
Lifts and trails? All four mountains (Aspen Mountain, Snowmass, Highlands on Dec 13, Buttermilk Dec 20) are prepping, with Snowmass's Big Burn calling intermediates for wide-open glory. Expect limited early openings focused on groomed blues and blacks.
Weather's crisp today around 42°F at base (freezing higher up), with clear skies and light winds—prime for laps without the deep freeze. Next five days look mild and dry: highs 50-60°F valleys, dropping to 30s nights, mostly sunny with a slim shot at 1-3 inches mid-week. Freeze-thaw cycles could crust things up, so hit mornings for best groom.
Season snowfall's on track for above-average December (30+ inches forecast), fueled by La Niña vibes boosting early winter dumps up to 60 inches. Locals whisper of a Thanksgiving storm potential—pack your fattest skis. Pro tip: Free shuttles link everything, and village beds are 95% ski-in/out. Avalanche awareness ramps up off-piste; gear up and check reports. Time to book that heli drop—Aspen's about to rip!
