Destination: Aspen
Cheat Sheet Text Size A A A
A longtime Aspen transplant summed up the town’s charm by saying, “It’s small town and big world at the same. You never know whether you are going to ride the chair lift with a sultan, a senator or a ski bum, and all can be just as grateful about getting to be here.” The same is true in summer, only rather than sharing a chair lift, you are probably sharing a hiking trail or a restaurant terrace.
In this report: The area’s best hotels under Where to Stay, authentic restaurants under Where to Eat, sights not to miss under What to See & Do, a guide to the shopping scene under Where to Shop, and great insider recommendations in Indagare Intelligence.
