Aspen, Colorado
There are four separate
ski areas within a 19km
radius with skiing suitable
for all levels. In the late
19th century, Aspen was a
bo oming silver-mining town
which fell into disrepair
when the price of silver
eventually dropped. The
historic centre has be en
beautifully restored with
the emergence of the town
as a ski mecca for the rich
and famous. The town has
a variety of restaurants and
bars which provide some of
the world's best après-ski.
