First Tracks: Aspen

Yeah, dude, Git Sum. It finally snowed double digits in Aspen. AspenSpin scored a first tracks hat trick, getting early access to the Gondola Fri. Sat. and Sun.  First Tracks....anybody can do it-- you have to sign up in advance--- and be there at 8 a.m. First Tracks is a hidden gem.

Twenty-some inches of POW POW fell on Ajax this weekend. We claimed our share. Its been a difficult season POW-wise so it was so sweeeeeet to get some softness. It felt like 2007 for a minute.

John Miller is a dedicated first-tracker. The host of Miller Time on Aspen TV, Channel 19 (Thur. 8.30 am), John does first tracks every day. He's raising money for The Buddy Program one lap-at-a time.  A-Spin woke up at dawn and got to sample the untracked with Miller and the early shift---THREE DAYS in a ROW.  Click the pix to ENLARGE.
