Buttermilk is also home to ESPN’s Winter XGames, featuring some of the best terrain park features in the country. Buttermilk's 5 terrain parks offer something for everyone, from the beginner Panda Pipe to the world-famous XGames Superpipe. With incredible views from the Cliffhouse restaurant at Buttermilk's summit, to lovely gladed skiing on the West Buttermilk side and a new high-speed chair serving the Tiehack side, Buttermilk is definitely worth a visit. Rent a pair of skis or a snowboard from our Aspen or Snowmass rental shops and head over to Buttermilk for a day of fantastic skiing or riding.
