Summer Update

Last summer was fantastic. I just visited with my family.  Here's a taste of what we did this summer (with kids 9, 12, and 14):

  • - Tons of hiking &biking
  • - Aspen Rec Center: Ice rink, 3-story climbing wall, water park with 100meter water slide (Snowmass has rec cen with pool too).
  • - Visit the Glenwood Adventure park, with mile-long natural underground cave tour, bungee jumping, 'alpine sled' (like a personal racecar on roller coaster track - very cool!), Canyon swing, climbing wall, trapeeze trampolines, etc. etc. 45 min drive down the valley to Glenwood Springs.
  • - Whitewater rafting on the Roaring fork river. Even my wife had to admit, this was the best part of the trip!
  • - Rent a 'downhill mountain bike' for the thrill of your life: Take the gondola up (about $40/person/day) to Cafe Suzanne - with your bike -- Have an awesome hamburger, and then ride down the exciting trail to the village again - woohoo!
  • - Or, just hang out on the deck surrounded by the woods: In summer, the back deck is quite possibly the most peaceful place on earth. You are completely surrounded by woods. Read a book, listen to music, or just zone out listening to the fluttering of Aspen leaves in the breeze! You won't get this experience in a condo!
  • Walk out the back deck to directly access the hiking trails:
    • - Powerline trail that takes you over to Elk Camp and the Government trail (that goes all the way from the Snowmass Village to Aspen).
    • - Tom Blake trail (Awesome for mountain biking with the kids - mostly traverses over soft ground, 1 creek crossing) traverses into Owl Creek and connects with the paved bike path.
  • The kids can explore the woods and build forts. It's heaven!
