Crystal River Valley - Northwest Colorado
Thirty miles from Aspen and 12 miles from Glenwood Springs, this valley, surrounded by the White River National Forest, offers unique charm and secluded, untouched beauty. For a retreat even further off the beaten path, try the Redstone-Marble area with its mining past, ghost towns and dramatic mountain scenery. Redstone was founded by John Cleveland Osgood at the turn of the century as a model community to house employees of his coal mines. Although the workers and their families lived in simple cabins, Osgood built the luxurious Cleveholm Castle for himself, furnished with Tiffany chandeliers and Italian paintings. Marble was best known for its quarries, which produced a pure marble that rivaled Italy's Carrerra marble. Some of it was used in the Lincoln Memorial monument and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The difficulties of mountain transportation closed down the quarries, but you can now take a tour.
Commercial air travel accommodations are handled by Aspen/Pitkin County Airport. Please contact your preferred travel agent or airline for flight arrangements.
