nightlife

A two-handed mahogany-and-brass door leads moneyed guests down a dark staircase into a wood-paneled foyer with western-style artwork and peak-top views of Aspen. Guests are welcomed with open-arms by a conservative coat attendant who knows most members by name at this posh membership club. If not arriving for dinner, most people gather in the Great Room featuring a well-stoked fire, fluffy couches and overstuffed chairs adorned with down-blankets for cuddling. And cuddling they do, this crowd of leggy ski bunnies poured into their chinchillas and fox tails sipping stemmed champagne spritzers while entertaining their 50-something admirers. For those looking for more of a straightforward bar scene, the adjacent Caribou Bar offers a manly-minded pub environment free of social gossip and blatant social climbing - but then again what fun is that?

Tips

Be a guest. If short on cash and flush with beauty, try to find a local with an invite to spare and save the pricey membership fee.

Last Word

Aspen membership lounge offers peak-season socializing for aging glitterati and rich women looking for their winter boytoy.
