Winter X Games Are Here Again!

Since 2002 Aspen, CO has been transformed to host the Winter X Games. Each year Aspen Ski Company builds massive jumps, a snowmobile course, and the largest half pipe in ski and snowboard competition. Competitors come from all over the world and numerous are home grown right here in the Roaring Fork Valley.

Events throughout the four-day weekend include, Ski and Snowboard Superpipe, Snowmobile Snocross, Ski and Snowboard Big Air, concerts on site, VIP tents, and free vendor booths with prize options. Aspen is flooded with over 100,000 people who fill hotels, restaurants, and the bars throughout the Roaring Fork Valley. The local bus system brings in many more busses to accommodate all the people since riding the bus is the only way to get to Buttermilk Mountain. Columbine has helped ESPN with behind the scene set up at the hotel at the bottom of the mountain and miscellaneous storage since 2003.

If you can’t make it here in person, you can watch it on ESPN all weekend long!
