 ASPEN MOUNTAIN SHRINES 

Aspen Mountain is home to numerous hidden shrines, each dedicated to various individuals, cultural icons, and themes.

Every ski season I volunteer with a fellow member of the Aspen Mountain Club to give a tour of the local Aspen Mt Shrines.       I especially love taking my clients to discover new shrines.    For example, the new-ish Jimmy Buffett Shrine features one of his guitars, with some of his ashes that were scattered.    Sacred ground indeed.      If you would like more info, then please contact me.
