Who was on the trip with you? Chris' parents have a house here and sometimes we go just the 5 of us but many of our trips include the whole extended family of cousins/nieces and siblings/aunts/uncles!

As experts to the area, what are recommendations you have for others planning a Snowmass vacaion? There are so many fun things to do in this area - like many of the Colorado destinations!       

                

Summer: Many hiking and nature walk paths, Gondola ride up in Snowmass village where there's a rock climbing and mountain coaster as well as a ropes course. The weekly rodeo in Snowmass is also a fun outing! And of course, exploring and walking around the town of Aspen is a great activity since it's only 20 min drive down the road.

Winter: Skiing is the obvious activity of choice but there is also a (free!) ice skating rink in Snowmass Village. You can also ride the gondola up to do the mountain coaster in the winter or go Tubing. In late January, they host the X Games - which is on our bucket list (to watch in person).

Do you Fly or Drive? We usually fly (the drive is 17 hours with no stops!)

Do you have any recommendations on places to eat/drink? There are so many good places to eat and drink!
