Helicopter operations are planned for Aspen Mountain on Monday. The work is part of the construction of a new chairlift, the Nell Bell, which is expected to open this winter.

The helicopter flights will take place from morning until early afternoon. They are scheduled to start at 7 a.m. and finish around 1:30 p.m.

Further information about the helicopter operations and their impact on the area can be found in a press release. The operations will affect access to the Aspen gondola and hiking trails on the mountain.
