Aspen Skiing Company and its owners, the Crown family, are proud
to make a significant gift through the Aspen Community Foundation
to support the Snowmastodon Project. A large team of scientists
from around the world are studying the unparalleled Ice Age site,
and the knowledge that will emerge from their research has special
significance for Aspen Skiing Company's business and the ski
industry. The site offers a unique window into past climate
conditions and a broader understanding of how a warming planet
affects our environment. The discovery could also boost a
sustainable summer economy for Snowmass Village, bringing both
business and science awareness to the community. Supporting
endeavors such as the Snowmastodon Project is critical to the
success of their business.
Aspen Skiing Company is committed to creating a livable, vibrant
community for all residents in the Roaring Fork Valley. Their
philanthropic donations help sustain efforts to protect the local
environment, ensure that local children can enjoy recreation on our
mountains, and provide a critical safety net of human and social
services. Aspen Skiing Company employees recognize this commitment
as well, volunteering thousands of hours to rebuild trails,
construct homes, and serve the local community organizations.
Aspen Skiing Company operates the four mountains in the
Aspen/Snowmass area-Snowmass, Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, and
Buttermilk-plus The Little Nell, Limelight Lodge, and Snowmass
Club. Each year, Aspen Skiing Company and its employees donate more
than $2 million to hundreds of local nonprofit organizations. Find
