The fashion, the frolic and the fabulousness \u2014 from apparel to attitude \u2014 are always the makings of a cover photo shoot, which he would have documented beautifully. The spirit of ski season 2018-19 could be felt across the slopes with parties percolating at the peak of Highlands to the deck at Cloud Nine to the patio at Merry-Go-Round to the entire base from Alehouse to the Ritz-Carlton to Highlands Taqueria and house parties. As \u201cthe first of three closings,\u201d according to ski patroller Tim Grogan, this weekend kicks off a trio of memorable weekends at Aspen Highlands, which continue April 19 to 21 and April 26 to 18.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Shirttail\"><em>To reach May with invites and insights, email allthewaymaymay.com<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aspentimes.com\/news\/weekly\/mountain-mayhem-first-of-three-closings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: The Aspen Times<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuck, third from left, and his powder posse.May Selby Fireball &#8211; the aperitif of choice atop Highland Peak.May Selby Fondue at 12,392 feet &#8211; made with only the finest European cheeses.May Selby Life&#8217;s grand atop Highland Bowl.May Selby Hot dog sandwich.May Selby The three spiked seltzers.May Selby Nicole and crew.May Selby DJ Folami in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2443124","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-local-news"},"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-06-16 21:08:24","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"distributor_meta":false,"distributor_terms":false,"distributor_media":false,"distributor_original_site_name":"KSPN The Valley&#039;s Quality Rock","distributor_original_site_url":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn","push-errors":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2443124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2443124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2443124\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2443124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2443124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kspn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2443124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
