ASPEN, Colo. - Pitkin County officials are urging sledders to slow down. That's because of several close calls on Smuggler Mountain.
The county said Monday it has received multiple complaints from hikers who say sledders are going too fast for conditions.
According to the Aspen Daily News, the road is heavily used by hikers and sledders, along with occasional snowshoers and skiers. It is also open to automobiles.
