Aspen v Mammoth
I have just spent a week at Aspen and was extremely impressed by the snow
and runs but was wondering how it compares with Mammoth. Has anyone been to both mountains that can give a comparison? |

I've never been to Aspen but I've been to Vail (it sucked). Mammoth is
the real deal on par with Alta-Snowbird. The only negative to Mammoth is weekend crowds and poor visibility above tree line. |

Mammoth gets frequent high winds and massive dumps of wetter snow. The town is more of a bedroom community than Aspen -- kind of boring. Aspen is sort of like Hollywood in the Rockies.

Vail I spent too much time treversing and accessing terrain. It
reminds me of Whistler in a lot of ways. |
