Town Treasure
Between qualifying for the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, designing a signature apparel line for Oakley and raising awareness of global warming, what’s a snowboard angel to do? Local superstar Gretchen Bleiler gives the inside track on Aspen’s must-dos.

1. TOPPER’S
Head to Topper’s for one of their “Aspen” bowls. My favorite is the chicken cacciatore. toppersaspen.com

2. BIG WRAP
I could eat lunch at the Big Wrap every single day! Easy, delicious wraps and salads on-the-go; try the pesto wrap. 970-544-1700

3. KING YOGA
Take a yoga class at King Yoga at the ABC. You’ll feel totally invigorated (and sweaty!) afterwards. kingyoga.net

4. THE COVERGIRL SNOW ANGELS INVITATIONAL
I helped create this event (April 2–4, 2010) with the Aspen Skiing Company. The world’s top female half-pipe riders are invited to Snowmass for three days of pipe progression, pampering and fun. These are the girls you’ll be seeing on TV at the Olympics, so check us out! aspensnowmass.com

5. WIN HEALTH INSTITUTE
I go whenever I’m in town and leave feeling like a new person. Try the acupuncture to gain more insight into what your body’s trying to tell you. Afterward get your neck and hips back in place with an adjustment. winhealthinstitute.com

6. THE ASPEN CLUB
For a new, innovative and totally challenging workout, head to The Aspen Club for Bill Fabrocini and Pete Holman’s “Core 10” workout. aspenclub.com

7. SNOWMASS MOUNTAIN
On a powder day, definitely explore around Burnt Mountain at Snowmass. aspensnowmass.com

8. ASPEN NORDIC CENTER TRAIL SYSTEM
A great way to get outdoors and sweat it out is to go cross-country skiing at the Aspen Golf Course. aspennordic.com

9. FULL CIRCLE
Need some more pampering? Head to Full Circle for a relaxing and rejuvenating facial. fcmassage.com

10. ESPN WINTER X GAMES
14 Last but not least, cheer me on at Buttermilk Mountain during the X Games women’s half-pipe event (January 28–31, 2010)! aspensnowmass.com
