While there are lots of aspens along the road as one drives towards The Basin, there are not actually very many aspens within the ski area boundary. There is a nice little grove at the bottom of the Zuma hike back. There is also a nice patch at the bottom of the 1st Steep Gully. They are not big and stately, but are more small and shrubby. When they turn gold in the fall, they really stand out from Highway 6.
