A city of west-central Colorado in the Elk Mountain Range of the Rocky Mountains. Founded c. 1879 by silver prospectors, it is now a fashionable ski resort. Population: 5,850. Aspen is among the most popular ski destinations in the entire West. Nestled high in the Elk Mountains branch of the Rockies, Aspen and its sister town of Snowmass Village service four major ski areas, the highest concentration anywhere in Colorado. The surrounding peaks are some of Colorado's most picturesque, and provide a massive playground for both winter and summer activities. The city emerging as a skiing mecca following World War II and the foundation of the Aspen Skiing Company by Walter Paepcke, a Chicago industrialist who sought to create a utopian community of the mind and body.

Paepcke's legacy of the Aspen/Snowmass resorts, along with such institutions as the Aspen Institute, have made the city a year-round international destination for recreation, business, and intellectual discourse. There's no lack of things to do in Aspen itself, either. Visitors can take tours of historic landmarks such as the Wheeler Opera House or the Hotel Jerome, and shop at trendy outlets or smaller local stores. A selection of art galleries, a theater, and a concert hall are available for those seeking culture. The town of Aspen also plays host to a number of festivals, workshops, and competitions during the year, meaning something is nearly always going on. Aspen is located in west-central Colorado, about 90 miles east of Grand Junction. Affluent, cosmopolitan Aspen is now noted for its Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies and Aspen Music School. Its summer music festival was the progenitor (1949) of similar arts festivals throughout the mountain states.
