Are the Maroon Bells worth a 3 hour drive from Breckenridge?
Maroon Bells are nice but not 3 hr drive nice. I used to ride my bicycle up there when I worked in Aspen one summer. It is a nice drive up through Leadville and over Independence pass to Aspen. Leadville is good for a couple of hours poking around and checking out Camp Hale, the WWII training base for the 10th Mountain Division Snow survival/ ski fighting troops. I did some design work years ago on restoring Camp Hale and creating interpretive exhibits but I don't think Congress ever funded it. I did get to meet a lot of the old guys who trained there and went on to establish ski mountains in Aspen, Vail and other places after the war.
Minturn Saloon in Minturn is a cool spot to have lunch.
