Click: A Photo Editor’s Top Pics of Aspen

We invited photo editor Etta Meyer to curate a gallery of images for The Little Nell’s Instagram. Etta, a well-heeled travel writer, pulled together a series of photos that reflected her vision for a perfect day in Aspen as a guest at The Nell. See below for her favorite pictures from morning to noon to night.

The #TakeoverTuesday starts off with an introduction from our host:

Next, she touches on breakfast at her favorite local spot:

I like my pancakes as I like my snow: light and fluffy. The breakfast situation at #element47 just so happens to be the best in town. PC: @danielkrieger. #TakeoverTuesday by @ettadynamite

No visit to The Nell is complete without an adventure:

The Little Nell makes getting on the mountain a breeze. From the slopeside ski concierge, to bypassing lift lines during #firsttracks, to riding the Nell’s own #powdercat up the backside of Ajax. #sendit #nelladventures. PC: @scottmarkewitz #TakeoverTuesday by @ettadynamite

Apres at Ajax Tavern – the most inviting in all of Aspen:

After a day on the hill, we ski home to what appears to be quite a party. It’s 5 o’clock somewhere, right? #AjaxTavern @veuveclicquot ? PC: @stevegoffphoto #TakeoverTuesday by @ettadynamite

Wine on your mind? Have we got the cellar for you:

Master Somm @carltonmccoy tells a bedtime story in the wine cellar aka the most exclusive bar in Aspen. Fun fact: the walls of the cavernous cellar are covered in autographs of the ghosts of tipplers past. #redlightlounge PC: @danielkrieger. #TakeoverTuesday by @ettadynamite

Etta ends her day within the cozy confines of her Mountainside Suite:

Ending my perfect day @thelittlenell. Time to sleep tight in that sweet, sweet, mountain air. Thanks for following along. Goodnight! ?PC: @jeremyswanson. #TakeoverTuesday by @ettadynamite
