Aspen Colorado - Enjoy Your Winter Visit
With world-class shopping, a thriving nightlife scene, wonderful lodging options, and also the country's best ski resorts all inside a few miles, Aspen, Colorado will be the premier place to go for those seeking a thrilling winter getaway.
Although mostly referred to as an outdoors winter recreation hub, Aspen offers something for all. Luxurious spas, theatre, shopping (yes we mentioned that again), and highly-rated restaurants some of the attractions you will find within this Rocky Mountain resort town.
Why don't we cover the three basics associated with a visit to Aspen, Colorado: shopping, nightlife, and skiing.
Aspen, Colorado nightlife.
Some people want a casual, laid-back hotel bar with affordable drinks and friendly service. So enjoy your trip to Copper Mountain.
Just kidding. Try not to expect the libations to be cheap in Aspen. That's the price you'll pay for the privilege of ordering a draft of Fat Tire close to somebody like say, oh, Seal. (the singer, not your pet.)
The J-Bar on the Hotel Jerome is probably the many Aspen hot spots where you may run in to the rich and famous. The bar at the Little Nell is yet another in which the well-heeled play. For a bit more local flavor, (and spots a little lighter around the wallet), try the Aspen Brewing Company (sort of touristy), or Zane's. (More sports-oriented.)

Shopping
Galena Street downtown, right smack down the middle of Aspen, is the hub for world-class shopping. Whether it's charming, unique boutiques, the most recent in trendy ski wear, fabulous jewelry designers, or famous, exclusive stores, you'll leave Aspen looking better than once you arrived. The consignment stores listed below are classy. Clothes not your priority? What, are you insane? Well i guess, then take pleasure in the many art and home furnishing stores that dot the charming pedestrian malls of downtown Aspen.
Skiing
Ok last one. Aspen has skiing too. The primary resort is Aspen Mountain, or as some locals (and tourists who try too hard) think of it as: Ajax.
Founded in 1947, Aspen mountain has been thrilling (and scaring) skiers on a number of the steepest, most awe-inspiring terrain around. Runs marked "Most Difficult" and "Expert" make-up over 50 % of the runs at Aspen. To get a slower experience, drop the path a little, to Aspen's quieter little sister, Buttermilk, where gently sloping hills dominate. Aspen Highlands provides the best views, and it has more of a relaxed vibe. You can ski in jeans here (like real Coloradoans often do.) Our final resort, Snowmass, is very family friendly. The 21 lifts and acres of terrain will make sure that everyone in the household - from green snow bunny to double-diamond stud - may have a lot of fun.
