I write this post from Aspen CO, USA, after an epic adventure today! I had a nice 6hr ride today, it took in most off the trails that Aspen has to offer. Started on a hill named smuggler, took around 1hr to climb, lung-buster! I was rewarded with 30min single track descent and then it was time to climb again up onto a ridgeline, the views were awesome and the environment changed every few kms, from grassy fields to birch forests, then into desert like red dirt and insane rocks! The descent of the day took down through the 10-15 million dollar estate. Then a small commute to Snowmass for another adventure across the mountain to Buttermilk and onto aspen. Massive day. 6hrs and only 80kms, super steep climbs.
The Rocky Mtn Festival, was a great chance to see some gucci ti frames and parts, the festival was slower than I was hoping for, some good contacts were made all the same.

Hey Jaman, Its pretty damn hot here, Moab is super hot, so I am heading back into the mtns, a few days at Creste Butte...
You will love the Crested Butte singletrack! To me it is the best riding in Colorado. Be sure to find the best trails. And if you make it up far enough into the backcountry remember-
"Don't eat yellow snow!"
Some locals refer to the area as "Crusty Butt"
Snowmass really make good memories out of me. I bet you'll be able to have good memories too out there. You'll never leave the place. Thanks for the share. Good luck and Keep us posted.
