It seems that life is returning to some sense of normalcy. In a welcomed move, Aspen City Council rescinded its outdoor mask ordinance by a vote of 4-0 two weeks ago. And in even better news, Belly Up announced that they will be opening up at 100% compacity with no masks required to a full schedule (proof of vaccination or negative COVID 19 test are required). Click here for a schedule of shows.
Food and Wine will return to Aspen September 10-12 and has already sold out at half compacity. It is a great time to visit Aspen with cooler temps and plenty of fun to be had.

If you need a place to stay, please reach out with your rental needs. I have dates available across the calendar.
It has been a wild month in the Roaring Fork Valley. These foxes were taken by surprise by the 3-5 inches of new snow we had last week.
Snowstorms have blanketed the valley, only to be followed up with 70 degree temperatures less than 24 hours later. We need the moisture and it looks as though we are settling into a stable weather pattern.
The summer rental market is as crazy as the weather. Rentals are going for $20,000 per 1,000 square feet for the summer months. July close to 99% booked and guests are scrambling for places to stay. I still have a couple of options if you are looking. It is not too soon to start thinking about next winter. I have two units that are already booked for December, January and February.
Do not hesitate to give me a call with any of your rental or general real estate questions.
Selling the Mountains Podcast by Christian Knapp, a great intro into the Valley’s real estate market.
Christian Knapp the former Vice President and Chief Marketing Office for the Aspen Ski Company started this podcast a few months back. 16 episodes later, Christian is finishing up his last episodes in the coming weeks. I love podcasts and listen to this one religiously. This is his first foray into podcasting and Christian’s guests have been diverse and extremely interesting to listen to. There are great stories told and I found the best two episodes to be episode 11 with Craig Morse and episode 12 with Steven Shane. Click on the picture above for the Selling the Mountains Podcast.
