Aspen is an island at 7,945 feet where captains of industry leave their corporate armor behind,
don a flannel shirt, and disconnect from business as usual.
"The dream of Aspen begins high in its mountains. A steep 672-acre playground of peaks and valleys, ridges and streams. Up here, the air is like diamonds that glitter with infinite possibilities and cascade softly upon the village below. Aspen is more than you need -- and all that you desire. It teases with international sophistication and natural charm. It beckons with more rarified snow, called champagne powder, and more art festivals, culinary events and cultural celebrations. From season to season, Aspen distinguishes itself as one of the most alluring -- and incredibly active -- places on earth. "
