2017 FIS World Cup Finals

2017 FIS World Cup Finals

Mar 22, 2017

Lindsey Vonn went down as she crossed the finish line of the downhill. She finished in second place. For five days last week the top men and women ski racers in the world descended on Aspen for the 2017 FIS World Cup Finals. It was the first time in twenty years that the event was held in the U.S. and while Aspen has a long history of hosting World Cup...

Women’s World Cup Weekend

Women’s World Cup Weekend

Nov 30, 2009

The final turns of Saturday’s World Cup Giant Slalom Another fun opening weekend has come and gone, and with that, another World Cup Event. The giant slalom and slalom races, the only U.S. stops on the Women’s World Cup circuit, were on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Crowds of spectators watched from the finish area and grandstand, no doubt contributed in part to the sunny weather and somewhat uninspiring ski options...

Christy’s New Ski Pants

Christy’s New Ski Pants

Dec 18, 2008

What a shame. There was too much snow for Christy to effectively show off her new green ski pants at Aspen Highlands the other day. Were it not so much fun, she might have actually cared that her ’08-’09 ski season fashion debut went largely unnoticed. The twenty inches that fell by Sunday was augmented by another storm that came through Tuesday, with yet a third walllop expected Thursday. Things are looking good. Most of Aspen Mountain...

It’s disappointing to have the spring season trashed by airborne dust and dirt though. 👎 Experts say the continuing drought in the American West is all but ensuring this spring phenomenon will happen with increasing frequency— and even earlier in the season— in the years ahead. 👎 Let’s hope those forecasts are wrong. The spring backcountry season is already short enough. 📷 @aspenchristy
