Full Moon Party

3/29/10 Full Moon Party. Click for pix.Aspen, Colorado (3/29/10).

It was a Full Moon. A bright, beautiful FULL MOON. The Buckaroo's, the infamous Ajax Mountain ski-gang has been known to party when the moon goes full. It's a wee bit of a hike, and a wee bit of a ski. You have to know the way, and you need an invite, but the FULL MOON CABIN  (undisclosed location) is the best spot in Aspen. Last night over 20 Buckaroo's, Buckettes and other invited guests made the backcountry trek to THE FULL MOON CABIN.  When the lunar calander says party, the THE CABIN becomes a full-on rager and the 'roos get wild.

The food, the drinks,  the music, everything was packed into the alpine woods on the backs of the participants. The natural setting is indescribable. Even our photos cannot capture the splendor of this secret location. Civilization is miles away. As the moon was rising, we ate, drank, danced and celebrated.  Its a prime example of "livin' the dream" in Aspen.  After a kick a$$ homemade repast we all skied down in the moonlight. Sure it was icy.... chunky death cookies and unseen bumps were everywhere, but FULL MOON skiing is one of the best experiences ever.

The White Room / KSPN Apres Live

The White Room on Aspen Mountain.Was 3/27/10 the BEST POWDER DAY of the season in Aspen? Maybe so? Top 5 for sure. Mother Nature deposited 10"-12"of the fluffy White River Forrest POW POW on Ajax last night. It got so gnarly overnight (wind, snow, cold) that the 13th Annual Elk Mountain Grand Traverse  became the "grand reverse". Racers were sent back to Crested Butte and the race was cancelled or at least delayed.  Conditions were hard and slick underneath, but super-soft on top. A full-on winter storm on March 27.......niiiiiice. Everybody in Aspen was out on the four mountains. Tourists, locals, rippers, shredders, free healers, kids, seniors--everybody had a blast. 

After stomping the POW on Ajax, AspenSpin sped over to Viceroy Snowmass (yes, its true) to participate in Saturday Apres Live with KSPN (the Valley's Quality Rock).  It was the culmination of a season long contest with the grand prize winner scoring an all expenses Heli-Trip to Valdez, Alaska.  The pool at "the Vice" was rockin'.  The winner is....... a snow boarder???  Congratulations to Madeleine Hawken, have fun in AK.  Click  APRES LIVE for PIX.

The Stars Shine in Aspen (again).

Shining Stars Go BIG in Aspen. click 4 pixThe Shining Stars Foundation hosted their annual Winter Games at Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen last week. Shining Stars Foundation and their team of dedicated volunteers provide support and recreational  opportunities for kids with Cancer and other life-threatening diseases. The 2010 Shining Stars Winter Games was a HUGE success as over 50 sick kids got to GO BIG for a week in Aspen.

AspenSpin had a chance to meet and greet the Shining Stars again this year. Watching these kids bond with each other is heart-warming.  The kids come out of their shells as they rip ski (and snowboard) runs down B-Milk and party like rock stars at the Disco. Many of the children are isolated and separated from their friends because of their medical conditions.  At Winter Games, they meet other kids with similar issues, they get to form new friendships with young people "just like them".  Winter Games allows them to forget about the tests and medications for a week of activities and ....just be kids.
