User submitted facts and corrections:
  • Aspen is a very beautiful not to mention awsome, it has wonderful sites, and it is adventrous to many people. It has a lot of log cabins and houses up on hills that you could get the perfect view of the city and its lights. In the morning you wake up to the fresh smell of pine trees. If you want to take a trip to the mountains then I would prefere it to be here. added by Jazy
