We started out at the parking lot of the ski resort and hiked along the Aspen Draw Trail looking for fall colors. An hour and a half later, we reached the very top of the mountain and spotted the running chairlift....at 9100 ft.
A couple who had just ridden the chair to the top and were planning on walking down the trail, gave us their lift tickets to ride on back down. A very appreciated gift!
If you want to hike the trail one way, buying a round-trip ticket (no one-ways are sold) at the gift shop would be a great way to see much of the mountain.
The trees are all burned here due to the devastating Aspen Fire of 2003.
