From Dillon lake to Breckenridge

From the lake we headed south on Hway 9 for a 20-30 minute drive to Breckenridge.

There you can take the gondola up to the top and just sit with a cup of expresso if you wish.

Or...you can zip-line above the trees, ride a wheeled sled through the toboggan trail, or just ride down the slopes along the mountain bike trail. What fun.

Lots of super rich folks have built huge houses along the lift trail . 
And, in fact, the gondola makes two stops there to pick up those folks, right there in their neighborhood!

But, there are other spots in which you can stay.

Personally, these along the stream, down by the city seem more appealing to me.

If you get tiered of looking at the slopes, and hearing the stream rush by, right besides you,

you can just take a look at the local wildlife or flowers.
