Highlands Ranch
We had a great time here, watching the US/Belgium world cup match, with a great and very enthusiastic (college soccer player) owner, and crowd.  The food is tex/mex style, quite good and the portions are generous

East Aspen

East Aspen
High alpine lake.  Great hike.  3.5 miles from trail head.  431 elevation gain. Easy to hike, bike or xc ski.  Absolutely stunning especially with lilies.

Downtown Crested Butte

If you're spending some time in Downtown Crested Butte, Crested Butte Chamber of Commerce and Crested Butte Mountain Heritage Museum are top sights worth seeing.

Downtown Crested Butte
From a hiking trip last fall!  <3 Colorado.  While this is not the most difficult hike, the views are absolutely spectacular especially when the Aspens are changing color.  Early morning is the best time to go to get beautiful lake reflections.
