Return to Highlands

Today was our last ski day in Aspen. We skied some of our favorite runs on Aspen Highlands. Along the way I found this interesting sign that gave us both a laugh. Oh and we also figure out what "MGR Restaurant" was: Merry Go Round Restaurant, where we ate lunch. We're both pretty tired and think that next year, wherever we end up, we should probably add a day of rest in between ski days.

I wanted to comment (and commend) the excellent ski corral service on these mountains. At the end of the day instead of carrying your gear around, you give it to these guys. If you want to switch mountains, they'll transport your skis and poles where they'll be waiting for you the next morning. It cost a few bucks but for us "premium renters" it was free. And most convenient. Today we returned our boots, skis, and poles to the rental company (Four Mountain Co.). Everything was bar-coded so they just scanned in our stuff and said we were good to go. And just like that our four days of skiing was up.
