Travel: Aspen Outdoor Sports

Posted By: KK on 06/10/11 7:47 AM | Categories: Travel

There are so many glorious things to do in Aspen in the Summer – hiking, biking, fly fishing, rafting and on and on.  Our personal faves are The Food and Wine Classic , the Aspen Music Festival, the Aspen Institute’s Aspen Ideas Festival,  and dinner and dancing at the Caribou Club. For our daytime activities, we are hiking the beautiful trails and riding the rapids on rafting adventures.   And we never tire of strolling around this charming Victorian cowboy town with so many great shops, galleries, like the Baldwin Gallery, and restaurants.  What to wear in Aspen? For day wear, we like a layered look to be ready for your inevitable healthful pursuit.
