I've been doing the ASE flying for 2 years and I don't see that many that are weight restricted. We typically plan GJT as an alternate unless we are coming from DEN then we use DEN as the alternate. Even with alternates we are usually able to carry a full load and jumpseater. Flights from ASE to DEN are never a problem. LAX, SFO, ORD, IAH and MSP will likely be restricted if an alternate is required. ATL is a new one this year and they tell us a fuel stop may be used to be able to carry a full load.
ASE weight restrictions aren't as bad as you'd think. That extra 1000' they added to the runway a few years ago made a huge difference.
