It's the winters and the skiing that have lured people to Aspen for close to a century. Experiencing our Rocky Mountain powder snow and clear, brilliant days on one of Aspen's four ski mountains, you'll know why Aspen is arguably the most famous ski resort in the world. Aspen Mountain, is the signature ski mountain in the Aspen area, but there are three other world class ski mountains...Snowmass, Aspen Highlands and Buttermilk-Tiehack. You can enjoy a ski-in home or vacation condominiums at all four ski areas.
Also, year round,
Aspen is a center for
culture and
outdoor sports and is one of the most scenic resort areas in all of North America. You will love to
hike or
bike or
horseback ride the many scenic trails all around Aspen. Or, if you are a
golfer, you will love to live in one of the top quality golf subdivisions and country clubs in the are. Over the years, countless visitors to Aspen have made the decision to purchase a second home or vacation condo here. And, some families have been lucky enough to be able to make the move to live in this special place in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
Besides
Aspen, there are other charming Victorian mining towns such as
Redstone,
Basalt and
Carbondale. You can also find scenic ranch and equestrian communities in areas like
Old Snomass,
Missouri Heights and the
Castle Creek Valley. Forty-five minutes from Aspen is historic
Glenwood Springs, which is famous for its hot springs, which was visited by Teddy Roosevelt 100 years ago. Glenwood Springs also has its own ski area, Sunlight, and is a thriving business and residential community at the confluence of the Roaring Fork and Colorado Rivers, which are popular for
rafters and
kayakers. Please take a look at my
