The Gant, Aspen

Rankin Family in Aspen 22 Jan 2012 to 5 Feb 2012

To ski for 14 days at Aspen with my adult children was an absolute privilege. They are all terrific skiers who have skied through Europe. They just loved it! Great terrain, back country, Highland Bowl, nightlife, food on and off the 4 mountains, & great retail.

Aspen has it all! And you know what it just all works! Guess what else; it''s not expensive and only as pretentious as you want it to be!

Accomodation at The Gant was great too. Have to love the Gant Bus in & out of town at all times of the day. By the way it is only a short walk so easy either way.

I could go on & on but whats left to is "can’t wait to go back!".

Aspen/Snowmass

After 5 visits to Aspen/ Snowmass we are skiing new terrain every year as our skills improve. Huge area to ski across the 4 mountains and always somewhere to get away from the crowds on the busier runs. Great instructors at the ski school.

The Gant offers comfortable accommodation with gym, saunas, outdoor pool and hot-tubs to unwind in at the end if the day.... Friendly, helpful staff and courtesy buses to run you down to shops and restaurants if the weather isn't conducive to a leisurely 5 to 10 minute stroll.

Terrific choice of restaurants and cuisine or pick up all your own needs to cook dinner from the supermarket and The Butcher's Block ( fantastic butcher, seafood and deli providore rolled in to one) next to the Grog Shop (great selection of beers, wines and all spirits ) and all within a few blocks easy walk from The Gant. We can't wait to return next year!

Gasping Over Aspen

It is snow covered old gold, irresistible to any snow tooth.Snows overnight and then sunny during the day. Wind must blow somewhere on this earth but rarely here. Boldies and oldies mix it together and courtesy is unlimited wherever you go.

If you don''t like it here you won''t like it anywhere.
