OUR STORY

ASPEN RIVER SOAP CO. is a small family business, based in Durango, CO. Specializing in organic, plant-based, handmade soap, utilizing the finest ingredients. The soap is named after Jenn Maley’s first born child, Aspen. Aspen is raised by water surrounded by Aspens where she and her Mother venture out to explore… The name Aspen River Soap was born in 2015. In 2017, Aspen became a big sister to brother Jax. In 2019, both Aspen and Jax were equally excited to welcome baby brother Shea into their world of adventure. All three kids live with Mom, Jenn Maley, a formerly sponsored Mountain Trail Runner. Jenn occasionally competes and so do her kids. All three kids are proud members of Durango DEVO Mountain Bike Teams… They’ve already completed a few trail races. Jenn Maley is passionate about raising her kids in the Mountains, processing handmade soap and inspiring others to invest in their well-being. Between raising children, managing a business, sporadically modeling (recently published in ESSENTIALS DURANGO & MOUNTAIN RUNNING MAGAZINE) + inspiring others toward wellbeing, Jenn has climbed podiums... Her most notable accomplishments include First Place finishes at the 2023 MOUNT SNEFFELS 10K, 2021 BEARS EARS 30K, 2021 MOUNT SNEFFELS HALF MARATHON, 2021 SKA BREWING THIRSTY 13, 2011 WILD IDAHO 50K, 2013 BUFFALO RUN 50K, 2013 ANTELOPE ISLAND 50K, 2013 ZEITGEIST HALF MARATHON, 2015 + 2016 SUN VALLEY HALF MARATHON (TWICE, ONCE WHILE PREGNANT), 2015 ELEPHANT PERCH’S 25K, Second Place finishes at the 2015 WILSON CREEK FROZEN 50K, 2013 SILVER CITY ENDURANCE 50K, 2017 MANCOS COWBOY HALF MARATHON, 2018 MOUNTAIN MARMOT TRAIL RUN AND THE 2018 DURANGO DOUBLE HORSE GULCH HUSTLE.

Jenn managed a 4TH Place finish with a broken foot at the 2021 48TH ANNUAL IMOGENE PASS RUN to much younger athletes. “The Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” like Mom, Aspen, Jax and Shea are active, spry skiers, mountain bikers and runners.
