If you have decided to take a trip to Aspen you have made a wonderful choice.
Aspen has some of the most breath taking scenery and world class facilities.
When we do make this decision to take a ski vacation its good to get an idea about what to expect and where to go to get the best deals on ski rental equipment.
I will give some basic information on the ski resort of aspen and list some good places to rent gear.
As for the resort of aspen its commonly called Ajax amongst the locals.
The ski area is located in Pitkin County, Colorado just above the city of Aspen.
Aspen Mountain is on the north flank of the city.
The higher Bell Mountain is just to the south of Aspen Mountain.
The resort has a base elevation of 7,945 feet and top elevation of 11,212 feet.
It has a total of 673 skiable acres of terrain with 76 ski trails.
The ski trails break down as follows: 48% intermediate.

Getting to the ski rental stores and why it's so important to go to the right place.
Number one the right place will have the best gear, the staff will be knowledgeable and know how to adjust and fit a binding and boot.
Not to mention to pick out the right skis and snowboard for you body type, ski or riding style and weight.
Three stores in the Aspen area stand out to me above all the rest.
They are: 1) Incline Ski and board shop 2) Aspen sports 3) Hamilton Sports I hope this help you get the best gear and have the best experience possible.
