TL;DR
Aspen Snowmass turns 80 this December, and it's marking the milestone with $3.75 lift tickets on the anniversary itself - the original 1946 price. A discounted long weekend, $19.46 dining specials, lodging deals up to 46 percent off, and a season of anniversary programming round out the celebration across all four mountains.
Aspen Snowmass Marks 80th Anniversary With $3.75 Throwback Lift Tickets
Aspen Snowmass is marking 80 years of operation with a season-long celebration that opens with a weekend of throwback pricing, including lift tickets sold at the original 1946 rate of $3.75 on December 14 - the day the resort was founded.
The $3.75 tickets are available for one day only, on the anniversary itself, with Saturday December 12 and Sunday December 13 offering a more modest discount to $80 as guests build out a longer weekend around the milestone. Both rates grant access across all four Aspen Snowmass mountains - Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk and Snowmass - and the resort has capped ticket numbers to manage capacity, meaning they are likely to sell out.
Four Mountain Sports is running matching $80 premium rental packages across the same three days, and on-mountain dining venues will offer $19.46 food and beverage specials between December 11 and 14, a reference to the year Aspen Skiing Company itself was founded.
