Things To Do This Week Each week, I take a look at events and happenings in The Valley and choose three things that look adventurous from Aspen down to Carbondale. Here are my picks of the week:
Aspen’s Wintersköl: January 12-15, 2017
January 12 is officially the first day of Aspen’s Wintersköl which dates back to 1951 when local Aspenites decided to celebrate Aspen’s unique Nordic lifestyle with an eclectic weekend of festivities. Translated to “A Toast To Winter, ” Wintersköl has been a staple of fun events celebrated by all. Daily details are in the link, but I highlighted some fun ones to attend.
