Aspen at last

First Night in Aspen

Aspens in Aspen!
... hill climb...think horse face steep, sun exposed and baby head rocks at times! Not bad on a "normal" day...but this is Aspen; which means I overindulged on mojitos at our favorite bar, Zocalito Latin Bistro. This is when you are glad the climb is only ...
Aspen Ho Day 1

A down day
Our plans to hike yesterday morning were thwarted by a nice long rain - sorely needed here so we went to the club instead - not a bad alternative! Lunch with wine and beer naturally followed by another nap - hey we're old and on vacation! I went window ...
What a difference a day makes
This morning dawned clear and sunny though some possible fire smog started infiltration the valley spreading throughout the day. Regardless, we set off up the Hunter Creek Trail - my old stomping ground, and made it up to the clearing in about an hour - ...
More fun with friends

Ajax base to the Sundeck - on foot!
Holy moly! What was I thinking? Even after fueling up big time at Over Easy with longtime pal Patsy Malone, this hike was a lot more than I bargained for. As the gondola only runs on weekends, we took the opportunity to hike up and ride down - a first ...
The Bells revealed

Aspens
The group had to go back to their wives and jobs, so I changed venues to Aspen and the glorified motel called the Sky Hotel. As it has been all season, my snow luck continues with a foot of new snow that rolls in time to make 28,500 ft of vertical quite ...

The gondola up Aspen Mountain wasn't working. And since Steven really wanted me to see the view from the top, we decided to get up there a different way. Back home we left the decision to Sophia between taking a Jeep ride up to the top (and back down), ...
