When you come to a place winter after winter and see everything pure white - mounds of snow and heavily laden stark trees, it takes your breath away to see wild flowers and green, green meadows.There is so much to do here in summertime.
People are tubing on the Yampa River and riding bicycles beside it. The Gondola runs every day and there are cyclists and hikers using all the other folds of Mount Werner that are hidden in winter.
Day light runs through to 8:30 at night making oodles of time to get that last golf game or hike or bike ride in before a balmy evening.
We took a Gondola ride one blue bird sunny day - Bruce, Sue and Matilda - and we walk down to the base for 3 hours through the most magic woody glades and across 4 diamond runs, criss-crossing and switching back between them all. It was a wonderful walk through fields of wild flowers and forest thickets with mushrooms and ferns. The reward for all this fantastic exercise - a bucket of margarita at Slopeside.
