Guidebook for Red Cliff
Food Scene
Great locals hangout, reasonably priced food and the closest restaurant (about 5 mins) from the tiny home. They occasionally close for the offseason and typically the kitchen closes on Monday and Tuesday (aka only open for drinks), so doesn't hurt to call in and check their hours.

Excellent Breakfast! 15-20mins west from the tiny home in the town of Minturn. There is typically a wait on weekends so be prepared. Again, they close during the offseason, so keep that in mind.

Though pricey, you are getting a lot for your money. The mountain is huge with plenty of awesome expert terrain and fast moving lifts. There is also a cool little resort called Adventure Ridge at the top with tubing, skating, ski biking, etc., if you want to play on the mountain but skiing isn't your thing. During the summer, you can rent bikes to bike down, or take the mountain "coaster" among other summer activities. Every Thursday in July the gondola is free after 5PM for twilight gondola rides and discounts at the restaurant on top as of summer 2018.

This is the ski mountain to go to if you are a beginner or average skier on a budget. Combine this with the ski rentals here, you are paying about 25% per day of skiing than any of the larger more well known resorts. Smaller mountain with slower lifts, but this is really all most skiers visiting the area need, and you can save the money for a fancy dinner in Vail! Views atop Ski Cooper are breathtaking.
