Gondola Travel can be pretty adventurous. In Aspen, Colorado, visitors can enjoy a breathtaking trip to the top of Aspen Mountain onboard Aspen's Silver Queen Gondola. Aspen can be for non skiers, too! In this video, I'll share all of the highlights of taking a sightseer trip in the winter onboard the Silver Queen Gondola. This Gondola trip travels all the way to 11, 212 feet above the village of Aspen. Gondolas are great ways to travel long distances or up to high altitude destinations. We'll explore Aspen Mountain from the Silver Queen Gondola at the height of Aspen's Winter months. This is a great experience in the Rocky Mountains for kids, too! We didn't ski, but still had a fantastic time onboard this Gondola

Nice. Change in format, but still your voice. which I think you should concentrate on as well. In my life there have been a few great orators, and I think you have that ability honestly. Pursue your passions, but you should remember you have a perfectly pitched and, for lack of a better word, soothing voice. Use it. I've watched a lot of your videos, and you are interesting because of you. I've travelled a ton of miles, so that is why I connected. Now it's because of you. I hope you find what you want to do, because I'm sure we would all want to listen to you talk. Good luck Jeb.

Great video Jeb! Aspen is a breathtaking place. Next you should visit Steamboat, CO and ride their gondola, which is equally impressive. Better yet, you can fly commercially into Steamboat (KHDN) to make another exciting mountain flight review.
Although, you could fly from Denver into Telluride (KTEX, arguably the most dangerous airport in Colorado, on a small turbo prop. Would make for an amazing video. And theres an awesome free gondola at telluride you can review!

Ive ridden gondola lifts in New Hampshire and the Walt Disney World Resort with there new Skyliner system. The only New Hampshire gondola lift Ive ridden in on Loon Mountain in Lincoln NH. Each gondola carries only 4 people. The gondolas on the Disney Skyliner holds 8 people. Ive had a gondola to myself as well as me and my Mom. Gondola lifts are fun. That gondola lift on Aspen Mountain looks higher than any mountain Ive seen. Way to go Colorado Rockies.

If you ever get a chance to travel to Switzerland in the winter, can you please do a review of the Eiger Express in Grindelwald? It is the coolest ski lift on the planet! I think also the most advanced one in the world. You also don't have to ski to ride it and it goes to a great view and restauruant and lots of other cool non-skiing activities!

my mums cousin lives there! she got married at the top of the mountains and had her after party back here in new zealand and i went to it. she and her husband work there. they just had their first child a few years ago and he is gorgeous, we cant wait to go and see him! also new zealand has amazing ski fields too!

As a lifelong skier I must say I thoroughly enjoyed this video! You should try the Silver Mountain Gondola at Silver Mountain (longest single stage gondola on either American continent) or Roundhouse Express Gondola at Sun Valley! Both are in Idaho & have absolutely amazing views.

We where in aspen a few summers ago and we overheard these people at out hotel saying that they took the silver queen and the wind was so bad they were sitting in the gondola for over an hour and a half. And on top of that, they still had to take the trip back down the mountain.

Jeb, thank you so much for sharing this video. This is a place I will most likely never visit, but I LOVE the video just as much! Keep on showing us more of the areas you visit. It is a real treat! For me anyway! Greetings from Pretoria, South Africa!

Was Aspen Winter 1996 for USCSA Nationals and that was the first time I ever rode (at that time the original 1986 Gondola Cabins were the ones still in service) the Silver Queen Gondola. It's similar to Heavenly's Gondola in Lake Tahoe.
reply

be sure to take the gondola ride at River Run at Keystone. It is equally as impressive and you get great pictures going up and down. Good video. By the way the company that owns Aspen, owns Breck, Keystone, and Cooper Mountain.

Jeb is running out of modes of transportation to review! Before you know it hell have a kid pulling him in a wagon while he complains about the ride!
JK Jeb, you do great stuff.

reply

Jeb, I suggest you come and review the Peak-2-Peak gondola in Whistler, BC when borders reopen! They have a special 2 silver cabin with a glass bottom in the middle.

Gondolas and chairlifts are engineering masterpieces and don't get enough credit! As someone who grew up in and still lives in Colorado, I super appreciate this video.
reply

Knowing what I know about Colorado, I imagine for a 15 minute gondola ride, that no smoking sign may be loosely followed by the boarders as they get higher lol.
reply

Just returned to Chapel Hill from Colorado. Always loved the gondola in Telluride but the views from the Silver Queen are much more dramatic. Safe travels.

Pilots ski in Aspen frequently - but I guess thats the reward they get after landing in that difficult approach! 4: 17 also solid german accent hahahah

I use to ski in the town of Red Lodge, MT. Id go up there on a weekly basis, to ski with a program thats for people that have developmental disabilities.

Why do you have mask on when its just you and your creative director? I would like to think its to protect the identity of your creative director.
reply

That was beautiful. Have you ever taken the tram at Sandia Mountain near Albuquerque? The trip you were on reminded me of that one.
reply

Granby, CO! One of the best small-ish mountains to learn to ski on with instructors that are actually there to instruct first timers.
reply

I really want to get out to Aspen sometime soon, Im not much of a skier either though so I think the sightseeing pass is perfect
reply

reply

Beautiful place. First time I snow ski was during a winter camp in the north during my time in the military. Was very interesting.
reply

Ive always wanted to ski Aspen since I was a kid. Now that its safer to fly. Aspen here I come! Congratulations on your engagement!
reply

Well that was definitely a different way to be up in the skies
Absolutely stunning scenery!
The ride looked safe, too.

reply

Thank you so much for this info! Im a trip planner and Im planning a trip for a client in Aspen. This was very informative!
reply

5: 40 We were above 10, 000 feet after all. Does this mean you were allowed to pull out your electronic devices? lol
