Lift-served skiing on Aspen Mountain this summer?

Per SkiCo spokesman, Jeff Hanle:

It's a possibility. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's a probability.

noted in the 4/27/08 Aspen Times Weekly.

Before I moved to Aspen Memorial Day weekend of 1999, I visited Memorial Day weekend of 1996 and again the same weekend in 1998.

Both years, the gondola was running to upload and download foot traffic for the holiday weekend.

But in 1998, we were surprised to see that, in addition to foot traffic, there was skier traffic.

They were skiing the top of Aspen Mountain.

Maybe this year too . . .
