Follow up question - where is this located?
I wanna say Denver, since that's where they were in the movie, but I have a feeling it was just "Hollywood Magic" and it's somewhere entirely different.
In the movie, they are in Aspen, CO, but in reality these scenes were filmed in Estes Park, CO, partially at the famous Stanley Hotel from The Shining.
Oh that's right. I think I was just thinking of another gag.
"I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this."
"I was thinking the same thing. That John Denver's full of shit, man."
