Mountain Towns

Written by: Dan

After leaving Glenwood Springs, we decided to bum around mountain towns.  We started with Lunch in Vail.  We picked a Mexican place right at the base of the mountain.   We spent the next few hours walking around Downtown Vail.  A very nice place.

After leaving Vail, we headed to Breckenridge.  We took the Gondola ride up the Mountain (we took the bus back down).  There they had plenty to do during the summer.  Alpine Slide, Put Put Golf, Sky Lift Ride, Even a Roller Coaster.  A great way to spend a summer evening.  We ended the night by finding a local place to stay downtown, finding a local brewery, and walking downtown at night.  A great place.  I, personally, liked Breckenridge a little better.  A warmer town, a nicer crowd, a little more to do, an all around better experience.  That being said, we haven't done either place in Winter.  I gather that is an entire different experience.
