The rest of the weekend was spent in Aspen, Colorado. We drove through Independence Pass to get there. What beautiful landscape!
In Aspen, we enjoyed walking around the town, eating at the famous Little Annie's restaurant, watching fireworks, listening to a symphony, and hiking. While hiking, we found a memorial garden for John Denver. Many of his famous songs were inscribed on rocks. I thought of my mom who introduced me to John Denver's music. We watched fireworks in the evening on Aspen Mountain.
On Monday, we got up early and hiked to Crater Lake, which sits at the base of Maroon Bells.
We decided to be adventurous and hiked off the beaten path to a beautiful waterfall near Crater Lake. Ian is pictured here after having conquered the mountain to get to the waterfall.
