Mix wedding bliss with a celebration of the outdoors in Aspen, with adventurous activities ranging from mild to wild. This Rocky Mountain wintertime playground is known for skiing, snowshoeing or snowmobiling with tremendous views, but in the summer and fall the snow melts to reveal hundreds of miles of pleasant hiking trails, fly-fishing streams, whitewater for rafting groups, rambling roads for jeep tours, or rocky paths where mountain bikes are right at home.
