The Star Peak Traverse is also known as the Aspen Haute Route. And it is definitely one of the most impressive hut to hut skiing adventures in Colorado.
During this trip, one of our guides will show you the way starting from the historical town of Ashcroft, connecting the Opa Hut to the Friends Hut, through three high mountain passes. During the expedition we will show you how to develop your mountaineering skills. We will instruct you on mountain traveling with skis, snow assessment to avoid avalanches, how to use of crampons., and how to use an ice axe for steeper climbing and skiing.
On this adventure you will have a great time, while admiring some of Colorado’s most beautiful natural scenery. We will go over the Little Italian pass to the Taylor Peak. We will also ski down the north face of Star Peak. And we will see the incredibly beautiful Crystal Peak from an amazing perspective. Plus, you will see more stars than ever before when we spend the night up in the mountain huts.
So send us a request for this Star Peak ski traverse in Aspen. We would be happy to lead you on this incredible 5-day adventure.
And if you’re visiting us in the summer we can also offer you another extraordinary 5-day expedition: 5-day Vail to Aspen Llama Trek.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
