Own a piece of Aspen Snowmass history.
In operation for 33 years, the Big Burn Quad Chair at Aspen Snowmass shuttled hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of skiers to some of the most popular terrain on the mountain.
Big Burn's namesake came from a massive fire that tore across the mountain in the 1880's. There is dispute over the origin of the fire. Some say it was lightning, but others contend it was started by ranchers trying to clear land. Another camp asserts the fire was started by Native Americans of the Ute tribe in an attempt to discourage settlers from moving in.
Anyone familiar with Aspen Snowmass certainly took at least a ride or two on the legendary Big Burn lift and this is a limited opportunity to preserve not only a piece of history but to have a permanent capsule of fond memories of days spent knee deep in Snowmass in your business or home.
