Things To Do
Oh My Gosh. There is so much to do in the mountains and that's why we live here.
HIKING: We live minutes from several trailheads. Bring good shoes and a backpack and be ready to be awed by the good mountain beauty.
HOT SPRINGS: You can choose between the hobo pools of Penny Hot Springs, ~3 miles down the Crystal River from our house, or treat yourself to the private pools of Avalanche Ranch (reservations required).
MOUNTAIN BIKING: We're conveniently located on the edge of a mountain bike mecca. Check out TrailForks or MTB Project for the full maps of the zone or ask us for recs.
CLIMBING: We've got that too. There's tough bolted stuff a mile from the house, easier bolted stuff within a couple mile drive and plentiful boulders across the river.
BBQ: If you've ever dreamed of eating delicious BBQ while surrounded by huge mountains, check out Slow Groovin' BBQ just down the road.
Visiting a little place called Asssspen: We hear the beer flows like wine there. 1 hour drive.
