Champagne powder and cowboy-town charm
Champagne powder at the resort, gondola laps, then a soak at Strawberry Park Hot Springs after dark. Slopeside burgers at T Bar, Mahogany Ridge for the brewery night, Carl's Tavern when the group wants ribeye and a quiet bourbon. Summer flips to tubing the Yampa and fly-fishing the Elk. The under-the-radar Colorado mountain weekend — less scene than Aspen, more ranch than Vail.
