Aspen Snowmass Turns 80 With a New Lift and $42M Lodge
Aspen, Colorado – October 29, 2026 -- Aspen Snowmass marks its 80th anniversary this winter with a $42 million rebuilt mid-mountain restaurant, a new high-speed lift on Aspen Mountain and $80 lift tickets on December 12 and 13.
Ullrhof reopens as a 600-seat, all-electric lodge
The new 26,000-square-foot Ullrhof at Snowmass replaces a 56-year-old building and more than doubles capacity to 600+. It spreads four concepts across two floors: casual Ullrhof (burgers, sandwiches, milkshakes), the Ullrmarket espresso bar, the top-floor Ullrbar with table service and craft cocktails, and the sunny-days-only Ullrgrill for hot dogs, brats and doughnuts. It is the resort's first fully electric on-mountain restaurant.
