Republished in 2022, To Aspen and Back comes vibrantly to life with a full complement of 216 photos, curated by National Geographic photographer David Hiser. This enhanced republication includes the original introduction written by Hunter S. Thompson, a friend, admirer, and political collaborator of Clifford’s who called her “the ultimate authority” on Aspen and her book “an act of passion.” The book also features a new afterword by Daniel Joseph Watkins, who saw the value of Clifford’s story of Aspen as a living idea and led the effort to republish this new and improved version.
