At noon tomorrow, May 25, Aspen will once again have two entrances from the east and west, when Independence Pass reopens for the summer. Once again, visitors will be able to access the winding, vertiginous road over the Pass and into Aspen from the east. Although not for the faint of heart, it's a gorgeous drive, and even saves you some time while driving from Denver. The opening of that part of Highway 82 also offers access to many natural sights and activities on the way up the Pass, including rock climbing, the Grottos, the Lost Man hiking area, Weller Lake Campground and more.
