We paid the $22 to ride up to the top of the mountain during the summer. But it was worth it. Just fabulous views from the top.

Aspen Mountain (Ajax) is the jewel of the town both in the summer and in the winter! Best tough skiing and great summer hiking.
All you see are mountains!!! Took the gondola up to mountaintop. So romantic!!! You will love it & you will never forget it!!
The view is beyond belief, the gondola ride smooth. The lodge at the top is a perfect place to enjoy selections from the full bar or a meal (decent) from the cafeteria.
Bluegrass musicians on the day we visited added a lot of enjoyment
This town and mountain was somewhat of a disappointment. The mountain is fun, but beware the end of the day "last run" to town. The mountain funnels to the bottom. Tired legs and bad skiers make this last run very dangerous.
Want to go out to eat at night? Bring a ton of money. And, if you don't own something made from dead animal fur, be prepared to have people look down on you.
My suggestion? Go ski in Summit county!
At the highest course in the world, free, and they provided discs. Food at the Sundeck was surprisingly good. Views of the Rockies don't get any better.
Went back a few times this July trip.
