Perfect weather greeted us this past weekend.  Sunny and 60's. The Spring skiing was tremendous if you timed it right.  The on mountain extra-curricular activities were plentiful.  April is National Donate Life month to raise awareness for organ and tissue donation.  Aspen's Chris Klug Foundation had a fun BBQ at the Buckhorn Cabin on Ajax to mark to occasion.  Learn more,  Click CKF

The Aspen Brewery gathered their crew to stage a re-make of the Aspen Ski School try-outs from Aspen Extreme. It all got layed down on film....errr digital.

We topped off the weekend with a KICK-A$$ show sold out at Belly Up.   Nederland Colorado's own transcendental folk-rockers Elephant Revival blew the roof off.

Spring-time in the Rocky Mountains...everybody had a ball.

Aspen: We're Not Done Yet!!

Sunday was closing day on Aspen Mountain and it was a great powder day. Monday was probably the single best ski day of the year...free refills.  Tuesday was a pow pow jamboree at Aspen Highlands.  It's supposed to snow tonight. In fact it's dumping right now. Wow, April really is siiiiiiiiiiiiiick. Gotta go.

Aspen Highlands is open through 4/21 with a bonus week-end 4/27-4/28

Spring is storming in Aspen...and we're not done yet.

The Million Dollar March (The Parade of Parties)

Aspen in March.  There's nothing better.  Beautiful, warm, crystal clear, sun-baked, bluebird days for spring skiing and late, bacchanalian party-filled nights.  March is the time when "everybody who is anybody" turns up in Aspen.   The show ponies are in Aspen.   Everyone wants to "see and be seen" and get a head start on summer with a Rocky Mountain tan.

For AspenSpin.com the photo opp's come fast and furious.  Celeb's, beautiful people, gapers, spring break party girls, CEO's as well as some very photogenic people who cannot be categorized.  Aspen Spin is not paparazzi, we always ask permission before capturing an image on digital, so rest assured no people we harmed in the taking of these photographs.

Here's a few pix to get your Friday started.
