General info: 

Snowmass, with its new base village well underway is a mere 15 minutes from the town of Aspen. The Treehouse Kids’ Adventure Center is basecamp for all things family. As the centerpiece for kids programming at Aspen/Snowmass, The Treehouse stands as the first of its kind in the snowsports industry.
The Elk Camp Meadows learning area brings beginners into the high-alpine with a dedicated quad chair. Introduced last season, the new Elk Camp Gondola makes quick work of the distance from the new base village to Elk Camp Meadows in less than ten minutes.
Then there's the all-time favorite intermediate run -- perhaps in the world -- known as the Big Burn. It's reason enough to ski or ride Snowmass itself.
