SNOWMASS, COLORADO WILL BE THE SITE OF THE 2023 TSC TRADITIONAL TRIP!



The world-class resort of Snowmass has been among the list of favorite destinations requested by TSC clubs year after year and for good reason. Your trip will be coordinated by Kerry Huffstutler,  from Los Amigos.

 

 

This first-class skiing deserves all the hype with its diverse terrain which offers something for everyone. If the extensive uncrowded, blue intermediate terrain of Snowmass isn’t inviting enough, your lift tickets include access to three other nearby mountain resorts by just hopping on one of the quick, free buses. Celebrity-favorite Aspen and Aspen Highlands will challenge seasoned experts, while the slopes of Buttermilk will satisfy tamer skiers and riders. Just learning to ski or board? Snowmass has some of the world’s best ski/board instruction. Plus, we ski out from our lodging onto an easy green close to the base. 

 

 

This trip is not just about the skiing and boarding. Skiers and non-skiers can revel in all the area has to offer in other ways, including the facilities at the Top of the Village such as the heated pool, hot tubs, close by spas and snow sports such as cross-country and snow shoeing. There is a vibrant slope side village bustling with shops and restaurants along with a new public plaza in the Base Village. Aspen offers world-class shopping including the bargain thrift shops of the rich and famous. Of course, everyone needs to experience the legendary après-ski and nightlife of Aspen.

 

ACCOMMODATIONS

Most clubs will be staying in deluxe two and three-bedroom condominiums at Top of the Village in Snowmass Village. This is a favorite with TSC. There is no wasting time and effort on this trip lugging skis and boots around! These true ski-in, ski-out feature washers/dryers in every unit, a full kitchen, a full bath for every two occupants, a heated pool and several hot tubs for après ski fun. Other amenities include high speed wireless internet, fireplaces, sauna and fitness room, elevators, private shuttles within Snowmass Village, on-site parking, and overnight ski tuning.
  

 

MORE THAN JUST GREAT SKIING

 

Snowmass boasts a Nordic Trail System with 60 miles of FREE show shoe and cross-country skiing. There is also an Alpine Coaster at the top of Elk Camp that you shouldn’t miss, as well as snowmobiling and dogsledding. The highly rated Spa at Viceroy Snowmass is a short 5-minute ride or 15-minute walk and is just one of several spas available to pamper you.

 

  

  

 

Since our last visit three years ago, Snowmass has done a $600 million dollar expansion of their Base Village which is the largest mountain resort construction project in North America. It features a FREE ice-skating rink, patio with outdoor fire pits and Colorado’s tallest indoor climbing wall. The heart of Snowmass Base Village is the new community center known as the “The Collective” with a bar, restaurant, game arcade and live entertainment.

 

TSC events include a Welcome Party and Final Dinner/Dance Party. Our tour operator, Sports America, will also host a free California Wine Tasting Après Ski Party! your evenings are already packed with fun.
