Instead of just "having a go" like this twit:

One clear day I asked the tower if I could circle to 33 [in a Challenger] just to see what it was like,” one pilot said.
circling at Aspen would require some homework first. A couple of simple plots re turn radius would show whether it was doable or not.

No wonder people prang aeroplanes at places like that...
