Aspen Snowmass is sold as one pass across four distinct mountains near Aspen, Colorado: Aspen Mountain (steep, no beginner terrain, gondola from downtown), Aspen Highlands (expert-heavy, home to Highland Bowl), Buttermilk (beginner/family-focused, X Games host), and Snowmass (the largest of the four, ski-in/ski-out village). No US resort publishes a piste-length figure in kilometres — skiable acreage and trail counts are the standard measure here, so those are used instead.
No true reversible cable car exists at any of the four mountains — the Silver Queen Gondola, despite its local “AJAX” nickname, is a standard continuously-circulating gondola.

Every note below is drawn from the resort's own or an independent official publication.
Figures are a sum across four separately-operated mountains (Aspen Mountain, Highlands, Buttermilk, Snowmass), not one published combined figure from the resort itself.
No true reversible cable car/tram exists at any of the four mountains.
US resorts publish skiable acreage and trail counts, not piste-km — piste_km fields are left null throughout rather than converted from acreage, which measures a different thing.
Double-black-diamond (expert) terrain exists at Aspen Mountain and Snowmass but has no direct European "red" equivalent in the grading system used here.
