When people think of skiing, they almost invariably think of Aspen, Colorado, one of the most popular ski destinations in western United States. But it doesn't just stop there. Vacationers can also tour historic landmarks like the Wheeler Opera House or the Hotel Jerome. For the culturally minded, Aspen offers a concert hall, theater and art galleries, and it hosts several festivals, competitions and workshops practically year round. There is also no shortage of trendy outlets and other smaller shops within the city to keep those who love to shop till they drop busy. For the avid outdoors person there is plenty to do even when it isn't winter like horseback riding, off-road ATV, rafting, boating, biking and so much more.
