The Poor Man's Aspen
Wish you could go to Aspen but aren't friends with Goldie and Kurt? Now you can, for much less.
Head to Aspen Park, about 40 miles from Denver and cozily lacking of a private runway or resort. Farmers and ranchers abound, housing is cheap and everything's authentic. Or maybe it just hasn't changed in 40 years.
The Denver Post waxes poetic about the little town, especially its hardware store which offers everything from drywall to marriage advice. And the Coney Island hot dog stand which has the best eats in town. You can eat your $1.83 chili dog with a beautiful view of the mountains. Sometimes a way better experience than any crowded four-star eatery.
