Aspen Ski and Board Shop Trip

Upon closing for the season in April, Aspen Ski and Board staff members pick a destination for a week long vacation to celebrate a successful year and seek out some deep snow conditions and big mountain riding! Check out our past trips below.

Our latest adventure took us to Utah, reconnecting with former staff and making the most of every run at Deer Valley, Snowbird, Brighton, and Solitude!

We visited sunny California to take some slush slashing laps and soak up the sun skiing beautiful Palisades/Alpine Meadows!

Lake Tahoe, CA 2024

A great year for the shop as well as the most iconic Shop Trip in Asbco history. Part of the crew soaked up the sun on the beach in the Virgin Islands, while the other 6 Cat skiied in Alaska!

Sun Valley ID, 2011

Our crew of hucksters honored the late, great ski hero Shane McConkey on his home mountain, by launching off every rock in sight, and doing it with high fives and smiles all around.  A hidden gem at Squaw is Granite Chief, which
allows us mortals who refrain from dropping the 50 foot cornice on Palisades, a chance to ski like rockstars through chutes and trees.  When the day ended
we headed to the Chamois, a local spot to hang and get a taste of true
“Squawllywood”.  The Lake Tahoe area will always be at the top of Asbco’s
list for a spring trip that offers the total package.

When deciding on a Shop Trip location, Mount Bachelor, Oregon is always on our radar, having spent our shop trip there in the spring of 2007. The mountain had received incredible amounts of snow starting in March and made the decision to lock the trip up. We were NOT disappointed. Shredding occurred in such quantity and excitement that most other visitors to the mountain simply stopped in their lines to marvel at our steeze. Rails were thrashed. Kickers were kicked. Cliffs were hucked. Powder was pillaged.
