In Aspen the buskers play bassoons

 The farmers' market sells Blood Plums...

... and Wagyu strip steaks

Weller Lake

Upper reaches of the Roaring Fork


The Grottos







 The Rio Grande Trail
42 miles of descending from Aspen to Glenwood Springs


 Hotel Colorado
Deathplace of Teddy Roosevelt




Glenwood hit 100°
We repaired to the veranda

The Hot Springs


The Riviera
"#1 restaurant in Glenwood Springs"

We favored the brew pub
Kolsch - IPA sour - Barrel barley wine - Imperial stout

Glenwood is a funky, gritty, pretty cool town on the confluence of the Colorado and Roaring Fork rivers

Looking west at Electric Pass
