I have done both the "Ute Cemetery" and "Aspen DarkSide" and you cannot go wrong with a walking tour with Dean! The Ute Cemetery was during Halloween season and is great for groups or locals - I learned a lot that I had never known about Aspen. The Aspen DarkSide was another great walking tour I would recommend. Dean is extremely captivating, friendly and always has such a great time on the tours! I would recommend this whether it is your first time in Aspen or if you have lived here for 20 years - Dean is sure to shed knowledge that is new and insightful to Aspen's history!

Most ghost tours have more information about the town, stories of intrigue. The ones that were shared were ok but not worth doing again.

Hi Sherry, Thank you for sharing your experience. I've meant for the collection of stories shared on the tour to capture a little bit of Aspen through it's timeline from Ute territory through the mining years to near present day Aspen. My apologies if the picture was not complete. Guests can contact me directly at 970-948-4348 or by searching the web for Dean's Aspen Walking Tours.

We took Dean’s Ghost tour on a chilly June evening. Dean was great, you can tell he loves what he does. Not only does he share local ghost stories and folklore, but he also shares a lot of Aspen’s history. Highly recommend spending an hour with Dean, it’s an easy walk around town!!
