Aspen Square Daily News

After a morning of heavy snowfall and slick roads, the skies are beginning to part over Aspen/Snowmass. Aspen Mountain and Snowmass are reporting additional accumulations of 3-4" and with moderate temps and clearing skies, it's going to be a great day to hit the slopes!

NASTAR, the world's largest recreational ski race program, returns to Snowmass Village today and runs through Sunday, March 24. Skiers of all ages from approximately 45 states will take part in the competition for national titles in various divisions during the races. And an added bonus for fans will be the chance to see Olympic and World Cup skiers like Julia Mancuso and Ted Ligety up close and personal.

We have enjoyed more snow on the mountains of Aspen over the past days, and now we have a mix of blue skies, light clouds and sunshine. The colder temps of night time are giving way to more moderate daytime temperatures and conditions are the best. March started out with amazing snow and great weather -- just what we want as we move into the Spring Skiing Season! More snow is expected later in the week. Call your friends at Aspen Square Condominium Hotel and learn about special spring rates. What a great time to come and ski or snowboard with us!
