ASPEN — OK, so the 2010-11 ski season isn't technically over since Aspen Highlands is open through April 24. Nevertheless, the 2011-12 dates are out for skiers and riders already dreaming of making turns next winter.
Aspen Highlands will again remain open the latest, according to Aspen Skiing Co. spokesman Jeff Hanle. Highlands will be open from Dec. 10 through April 22.
Aspen Mountain and Snowmass will be open Nov. 24 through April 15.
Buttermilk, as always, will open late and close early. Its season is Dec. 10 through April 8.
“I think that's pretty firm,” Hanle said of the dates.
The Skico sets the dates at this time of year because its various departments are working on their budgets for the next fiscal year and need to account for the length of the season in their planning.
