The Aspen Skiing Company in partnership with the City of Aspen, is hosting an uphill event at Buttermilk Ski Area — AT skiers, trail runners, snowshoe-rs, split boarders, hikers and all non-mechanized uphillers are welcome.

Don’t have the gear? No problem, demo some. Also, Four Mountain Sports will be open for the weekend with gear rentals and other end of season specials.

There will be a festival village set up at the base of Buttermilk offering demo gear, merchandise, guides, clinics and food.

For anyone that wants to learn about uphilling, the gear, skills — stop by for hourly demos at 9am and 10am at the base of Buttermilk.  The Cliffhouse will have complimentary hot cocoa or lemonade and a limited selection of food for sale.

The event is free and open to the public (all skill levels!).  Check the website for more details.

Sorry no dogs or bikes.
