GENERAL & ADMINISTRATIVE

ne of the best things about Colorado is that nothing slows down when the snow flies and the temperature drops below freezing. In these parts, all we do is change the gear we stick on our roof racks or head out a few minutes earlier to make sure we get to the show on time on slick streets. Winter has just as many opportunities for fun as any other season, whether it’s in the mountains or right along the Front Range. And that is why we love putting together Winter Scene every year. We get just as excited about all the cool things we find to do between November and April as our readers do. Just in case you get a wild hair and decide to ski every slope the state has to offer in a single season, we have put together a guide to all the resorts. And good luck with your quest. For those whose adventures fall more on the musical side, we have once again put together a guide of many of the best shows coming to the Front Range over the next five months. There is truly something for every taste from classical to the electronic, bluegrass, folk, indie, rock, jazz, world music and metal heavy enough to keep you groovin’ for weeks.

And there’s plenty more than music to keep you entertained this winter. We were amazed at all the interesting stuff going on here on the east side of the Rockies so we broke it all out in our guide to Front Range events. But wait, there’s more. If you have plans to visit the mountains this winter — and we know you do — you’ll want something to occupy your time when you aren’t screaming down the mountain waist deep in powder or too sore to bend over from the same. For those times, we have provided a guide to statewide festivals and events and trust us, there are plenty of interesting things to keep you so busy you won’t even think about the lame excuse you gave your boss for skipping out on Friday... or was it not coming back on Monday? Whatever. We know you can’t get out there and have an adventure every single day this winter, so we included a couple of winter-themed stories you can enjoy by the fire on one of those rare days off (be warned: These are going to make you want to get back out there and adventure some more). In all seriousness, winter is just a cold version of summer in Colorado. So don’t hibernate, get out there and have a great time. After all, that’s why you live here. Boulder Weekly

Once is luck

Colorado figure skaters dedicate everything to their craft by Claire Woodcock

icture a day in 16-year-old Nica Digerness’ skates: she gets to the Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs at 9 a.m. to warm up, then she gets on the ice for a jumping lesson. At 11:25, her partner, 20-year-old Danny Neudecker, gets there and they practice their lifts for an hour with pairs coach Dalilah Sappenfield, one of the top coaches in the United States. They get an hour for lunch, then they alternate between on-ice and Claire Woodcock

off-ice training until 4 p.m., when, depending on the day of the week, Digerness and Neudecker do high intensity cardio workouts before going home, having dinner, doing schoolwork for their perspective college classes and going to sleep. Digerness and Neudecker, who both call Colorado Springs home, keep up this training schedule six days a week. But this is the type of highly regimented training Digerness and Neudecker need in order to achieve their goals of making junior sectionals, nationals and world championships in 2017, not to mention the pair’s long-term goal of qualifying for the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. Their head coach, Sappenfield, keeps Digerness and Neudecker focused with training notebooks that outline their schedules for the next four years. It’s a dedication few of us can imagine, but it’s necessary to help the pair develop strength and stamina. “I have a vision for my skaters,” Sappenfield explains. “What I want them to do for their music depends on where they are developmentally in their skating. For Nica and Danny, my goal this year was to bring out a bit more maturity and sophistication in their skating, so I chose music that I thought we could choreograph that into.” In the last year, Digerness and Neudecker won the Pacific Coast novice sectionals, placed sixth at nationals and received two invitations from the International Skating Union Junior Grand Prix in Russia and Germany, all of which makes it hard to believe that Digerness and Neudecker only started skating together in January 2015. So in a year, Digerness and Neudecker have had to let go of the single skater mind-set and adapt to skating with a partner. “When you work with a pair you always have to match and so you have to work a lot on ... extension and lines,” Neudecker says. “It’s just like being in unison with your partner. And just the training is different. Like when I did singles, the training was totally different. I didn’t train as hard, so obviously that’s helped us develop.” From Sappenfield’s perspective, single skaters are able to skate away when they fumble or fall. As a pair, Digerness and Neudecker had to learn to stay together and communicate with each other in order to keep the emotions that come up when competing at this level in check. Sappenfield says that Digerness and Neudecker as a team have grown Boulder Weekly

from their dedicated work, and success will come from longevity, which takes a whole staff of people. The pair has jump coaches, spin coaches, strength and conditioning coaches, in addition to the other physical therapy resources the World Arena provides its athletes. “If you think of it as a football team, you have a head coach and then you have coaches underneath that work on specific things,” Sappenfield says. “We work as a team to reach the goals of the skaters, so it’s a group effort. I manage the whole thing, but it’s definitely a group effort and I have a lot of people working with me.” In the figure skating world, a newly established judging system has taken the technicality of the sport to new heights, which requires coaches to be even more mindful of expectations of the gold standard in figure skating. “We’re seeing a lot more quad twists, quad throws, we’re seeing a lot more triple-triple jumps. ... The technical aspect of it is even more demanding,” Sappenfield says. “So we start these kids very young doing all these triples, and also because of that demand we have changed how we coach. We now ask for a lot of recovery [time], and we ask for a lot of [physical therapy] so we can avoid injuries. But in every aspect it’s changed a lot. It’s more extreme, I would say. There’s more risk involved.” Sappenfield says the overall move to quadruple jumps in competition has happened over the last five years. Before, solo or pair skaters would do one or two quad jumps per program. But now, Sappenfield says, it’s difficult to win without packing in even more. She continues to be amazed with how figure skaters can do three, four, even five quad jumps in a program. That’s what Digerness and Neudecker are working toward — three-and-a-half to four tight revolutions in the air. But Sappenfield also says her job has become a lot more about managing risk, which requires taking the athletes’ body into consideration. It requires more off-ice training in front of a mirror in order to make sure the pair’s bodies are in unison. In their long program, Sappenfield says they’re advancing well with triple twists and triple throw jumps, but naturally, they’ve had their share of spills together. “One time we were doing a twist and I fell and got the wind knocked out of me,” Digerness

says. “I couldn’t breathe for like 10 seconds. I don’t like that feeling. It doesn’t feel very good, but the next time we do it, [the jump] gets better. We just have to get over the fear of falling and do it again.” Neudecker says he feels “pretty bad” when Digerness falls because he’s the one responsible for catching her. He says he tries to forget the fall happened and just move on, which always involves getting right back up and trying the move again. For Digerness and Neudecker, office training, like ballet and weight lifting, helps build their confidence when they go into big jumps, throws and twists. The off-ice training also makes it easier for them to bounce back after a tough fall. For Digerness, the member of the team being launched into the air, she’s had some falls that have been too painful to forget. “When an element’s not working very well, I really have to think of what I need to do in order to get it done, and not think of falling, or else I will fall,” Digerness says. “Mainly going back to the basics. [In an element], I don’t really feel too much other than what I’m thinking about technique.” Digerness is shy to admit it, but her mother Savannah Mclean says there were a lot of unexpected sacrifices that came with making her daughter’s professional path to the podium a reality. She points out that Digerness is only 16, has already graduated high school and is very dedicated to her training time. But that has come at the cost of high school dances, sleepovers and many of the other “typical” experiences adolescent and teenage girls experience. “She hasn’t had much of a childhood,” Mclean says. “I’ve tried to incorporate friends coming over when she can, but she’s so busy with her off-ice training. ... She had so many activities in one day that by the time she’d get home we’d have dinner and she’d have schoolwork and be so tired. You don’t really have a life outside of skating, once you make that commitment to really be a serious skater, because there’s so much involved besides just what you see on the ice.” But Mclean says she never gets tired of watching her daughter and Neudecker. Her daughter is a perfectionist and so committed, she says, that she sometimes

has to pull her off the ice. Digerness and Neudecker try not to think ahead to the big competitions. Instead, they say they take their training day by day, attempting to live in the moment. They say they haven’t thought much about their futures outside of skating, but that certainly doesn’t mean they don’t have other interests. Neudecker is currently working on a degree in communications and counsel-

ing from the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs. Digerness, four years Neudecker’s junior, says she’s not totally sure, but thinks she might want to become a zoologist when she grows up. Her face lights up when she talks about spending time with her pet chinchillas. “I used to have eight but we gave them away because I didn’t have enough time for all of them,” she says. “The three I have now are Chili,

Chino and Pepper and they’re each different colors. I hold them, I play with them, I clean their cage like every other week and give them treats and dust baths.” Digerness and Neudecker are looking to medal at nationals and to qualify for junior worlds next year. As their coach says, “Once is luck.” It’s time to prove these two have more than luck on their side.

The Mahon warrior way Redefining the weekend warrior by Emma Murray

or the Mahons, a weekend’s success depends on how much energy they have left when Monday morning rolls around. “We typically pack it all in the weekends,” Christy Mahon says of her and her husband’s outdoor adventures. “The goal is usually to come back as tired as possible on Monday.” Christy and Ted are ski mountaineers. Since meeting in 2000 — through mutual friends on skiing adventures — they’ve been ticking off achievements, one by one, from a never-ending list of objectives: hike all the 14ers, ski all the 14ers, run an ultramarathon, run another, traverse that ridge, connect those features and so on. For three years they chipped away at their biggest project to date: skiing the 100 tallest mountains in Colorado, known as the Centennials. Last May, when they finally finished, Ted became the third man to do so, and Christy, the first woman. For the couple, who’ve been married since 2009, their pursuits feel incremental. They take one, sometimes two mountains, one weekend at a time. The sum of these pursuits accumulated in their nomination as 2016’s National Geographic Adventurers of the Year. “We’re not doing anything that anyone else couldn’t do,” Christy explains. “It’s just about being consistent and making the most use [of your] time as possible.” But considering that both, while sponsored for their outdoor pursuits to some degree, also maintain day jobs — Christy as a development director for the Aspen Center for Environmental Studies, and Ted as a full-time ski instructor, guide, website designer and photographer — their commitment to the outdoors goes beyond the scope of the typical weekend warrior.

“There’s a challenge to find the separate, friends and relationships. time,” admits Ted, a 44-year-old New For us it was the same thing. It’s cool York native who moved to Colorado because you have someone who shares in 1994 for a ski season and never left. the common interest,” Ted says.

The work week is the rest time.” “Exactly,” Christy adds. “But during the week, it’s still waking up at six to skin up [our local mountain] and running after work. So Ted and Christy Mahon have been you have to be a little adventuring together since they girl, a lot of my friends bit structured to get it met in 2000.

I think a lot of people don’t talk about [turning around before the summit] that much because it’s not much fun.

That gets lost in the instant Facebook and Instagramming where it always looks like wild success. It’s not really the reality.” “Very true,” Christy adds. Now having completed the Centennials ski challenge, Ted says, “We have a goal to eventually do the bicentennials. We want to ski at least five a year.” Christy laughs, “Yes, a 20-year project.” Ted says, “After all the years of the Centennials keeping us kind of local...” Christy interjects, “Well, in the state.” “Yes,” Ted resumes, “Now we’re trying to line things up [to ski] abroad: Japan, Europe, loosely talking about going to Nepal. These things take a lot of planning. We need to figure out what’s realistic. We’re always working on this stuff. It’s not always grand, but there’s not enough time to do everything we want to do. “It’s really special to share all this stuff. Because these outings are the most memorable things we’re doing, so it’s special to be doing them together, not with others, and then coming home afterwards and trying to relate it.” Christy hums in agreement. “Yeah, I wouldn’t have it another way.”

Skiing with style... not Crested Butte’s Alley Loop attracts the zany and the serious to a great mountain town by Rob Jackson

olorado’s largest cross country ski race doubles as the most goofy one. Entering its 31st year, Crested Butte’s Alley Loop Nordic Marathon draws some of the country’s elite Nordic athletes while also engaging the town’s free-spirited locals. Although there are hundreds of serious racers clad in aerodynamic spandex and seeking fast times at the Alley Loop, attendees are just as likely to see tutus, boas, masks, wigs, the ubiquitous Viking helmet, and elaborate costumes of all sorts on race day. It’s as if the Alley Loop is Crested Butte’s very own Halloween with a few key modifications: winter white replaces shades of fall orange, ice is more likely to accumulate on exposed facial features than sticky candy residue, and everyone decides to wear the same costume — snug boots and skinny skis — on their feet for the big day. Okay, the similarities between Halloween and the Alley Loop are found mostly in the creative clothing and spirit of it all, but the playful visuals do belie some sort of connection there. It’s not unusual to see the most enthusiastic participants take group costume themes to a whole new level by attaching themselves together to form a “Nordic Train” with whistles and all, an airplane or a Viking ship. If one member of the festive group falls down on the course, the whole costumed bunch is likely to go down in a cloud of snow dust (or, more realistically, with a hard crunchy thud). Another unique feature of this race is the course layout itself. Starting on freshly groomed corduroy tracks on the town’s main thoroughfares, the course then leads racers through back alleys, over narrow foot bridges and between storefronts and residences. Large portions of the course are lined by the towering snow mounds typical of high altitude mountain locales. This design means passing other racers can be a challenge in the narrow confines of what some call “the last great Colorado ski town.” However, the course does open up eventually as it winds up and into the elevated and jaw-dropping outskirts of town. The finale brings skiers back to where they started in the heart of the action. There are various races throughout the day that cater to different age groups, fitness levels and

degrees of athletic ambition. The kids’ races range from 1.5 km to 3 km, adult races start at 5 km and the main event requires skiers to traverse 42 km. The long 42 km version of the Alley Loop is a qualifier for the American Birkebeiner which is the country’s largest Nordic ski race and attracts over 10,000 racers to Wisconsin each year. By comparison, the Alley Loop has drawn upwards of 700 racers in recent years. Aside from serving as an opportunity to qualify for the nation’s premiere Nordic race, there is cash on the line for the more serious skiers at the Alley Loop. The prize purse totals $5,000 with $1,000 of that going to the fastest finisher in the 42 km main event. The “King and Queen of the Loop” awards pay out $400 and go to the man and woman who finish their first lap fastest. An achievement bell is given to everyone who completes all 42 km in under three hours. In addition to the Nordic races, a fat tire bike race was recently added to the lineup and takes place on the Friday before Saturday’s Alley Loop ski events. There is also a pub ski crawl on Friday night, although that probably doesn’t fit into the schedule of the most serious racers. Anyone who has ever been to Crested Butte knows that few places rival its stunning beauty. Telluride makes a strong statement with its waterfalls, towering 360 degree mountains and easy access to the slopes, but if you have any inclination towards claustrophobia then the open valley and wide vistas surrounding Crested Butte will probably be more to Boulder Weekly

your liking. If collecting icicles on your face isn’t really your thing, the town boasts plenty of attractions for more casual onlookers. Taking deep breaths of high country air is a good place to start, both for sanity in our chaotic world but also as a sound practice for lowlanders to ward off potential altitude-related health issues due to the town’s elevation of 8,885 feet. As in all high-end mountain towns these days, there are oxygen bars in case things really go awry. And multiple coffee shops roast their own beans fresh. Crested Butte’s fine dining, small shops and Photo Credit

the amenities of a first class mountain town await skiers and non-skiers alike. The paradoxical yet alluring nature of the Alley Loop is that some folks register for the cross country ski race to pursue athletic achievement at the state’s highest level while others view the event as a good excuse to dress up regardless of their ability or inability to ski. Case in point — Superman actually won the main race one year. Maybe one of the jubilant Vikings, butterflies or cowboys on skis has a chance for glory in 2017.

Your guide to hitting the local trails in winter

by James Dziezynski

oulder’s wealth of excellent hiking trails are not to be missed once winter arrives. Most trails in town are reached by very accessible trailheads, so exploring the natural beauty of the foothills remains a viable option year-round.

important things to know before heading out on local treks. What to bring The obvious difference for winter hikes versus summer will be the ice and snow that lingers on

James Dziezynski

Stay active year-round by enjoying some of Boulder County’s trails all through the winter.

As many locals know, the winter months in Boulder County tend to have mild weather and sporadic snow, though a few days each year bring about Arctic blasts that drop temps below zero. If we’re lucky, these fronts drop a significant amount of snow. Rarely do trails get so burdened by powder that hikers have to use snowshoes — though it’s a real treat when they do. Cold weather hiking on the Front Range showcases a unique palette of colors, accented by long shadows and the moody lighting of the winter sun. While conditions remain relatively tame — trails see less human traffic, but it’s rare to be the only one out — there are some

trails. Boulder County’s outdoor community stays active year-round, meaning there will be enough foot traffic to hard-pack snow. Our fabled 300 days of sunshine can work against us, melting and consolidating the pack into bulletproof tongues of ice. Add into the mix the fact temperatures can fluctuate from the high 50s to below zero on a regular basis. Pardon the expression: Arm your feet with microspikes. These lightweight spikes slide over your boots and provide much needed traction on dicey terrain. On warmer winter days, you can get away with wearing light hiking shoes, though if you plan on hiking above 7,000 feet, boots are usually the best choice even if it’s warm in town. An adjustable pair of microspikes that can fit any type of footwear are worth bringing along, even if it seems you Boulder Weekly

12 Winter Scene 2016

won’t need them. Ice hides in shadows in the most insidious ways. Hiking poles are also a very good idea, especially on steep trails like Royal Arch, Fern Canyon to Bear Peak, and Shadow Canyon to South Boulder Peak. Once you have your stability system figured out, make sure to bring a headlamp (“It gets late early out there,” as Yogi Berra said), a first aid kit, snacks, a thermos or insulated bottle holder for your water and good sunglasses — the reflective light from snow can be harsh on unprotected eyeballs. If you’re bringing your dog along, using booties or paw wax can help make things easier on their feet. And as previously mentioned, if you’re lucky enough to be on the trail during a big snowfall, snowshoes are a lot of fun to use when you can. What to wear Layering can be tricky, especially on typical winter days where the temps hover around freezing but the sunshine is bright. Bitter cold stretches are rare, so a long-sleeved base layer, fleece and outer insulating jacket (i.e, the eponymous “puffer”) usually do the trick. For stormy days or especially cold outings, add in an outer shell, a neck gaiter/buff and long johns under hiking pants. Gloves and a warm hat should be included, though don’t be surprised if they end up stored in your pack. Warmer winter days can mean using arm warmers and thin gloves and yes, you’ll probably see someone hiking in shorts on these days. A normal-sized day pack should carry all your winter gear, including extra apparel for cold days. Footwear with Gore-Tex or another waterproof lining work well, since trails can be wet and muddy, even in the middle of January. Layering systems can help keep you from overheating or getting chilled, especially on mountain hikes where you’ll top out over 8,000 feet. It’s worth mentioning that on windy or bitterly cold days, there’s nothing wrong with bringing along your ski goggles. Where to go Now the big question: Where to hike? Boulder County is lucky enough to have two very different settings for winter outings. To the east, the plains and mesas get a hearty dose of sunshine and have little tree coverage, so they tend to stay dry and warmer. The foothills to the west include mountain

terrain, where forests cast cold shadows and the terrain ascends to over 8,000 feet. Both environments are host to hikes of varying difficulty.

Easy hikes For hikes with good footing that offer outings around an hour or less, Boulder County is ready to please. Boulder Valley Ranch in North Boulder is an excellent option and includes the Sage Trail, which can be connected via an easy ramp to the Degge Trail. A longer adventure can add in the Eagle Trail via the Sage Trail to connect to the Boulder Reservoir. South of Boulder, Marshall Mesa, Doudy Draw and Flatirons Vista can be connected for an enjoyable outing as long or short as you like. Don’t forget the Greenbelt Plateau Trail either; views from the top of the plateau gaze out at the Flatirons and the city below. Finally, Davidson Mesa in Louisville is also a great option. The Flatiron views here on a winter day are excellent — possibly the best in the area. There’s also a fenced in dog park and the trails are all nearly flat.

Intermediate hikes If you’re looking for a hike in the two-to-three-hour range or simply want the challenge of more exciting terrain, here are some options. Mount Sanitas has a variety of trails and loops. Stay low on the Valley Trail and Dakota Ridge or ascend to the top via the Mount Sanitas Trail, East Ridge Trail or the newest addition, Lion’s Lair Trail. Neighboring Anemone Hill is the quiet counterpart to the popular Mount Sanitas and worth a winter visit. Doudy Draw can be a starting point to link up to the Flatirons Vista plateau to the east or the Spring Brook Trail to the west. Finally, both Wonderland Lake and the Foothills trailheads can be used to access the Hogback Trail. The new Joder Trail, accessed by trailheads at either Olde Stage Road or Highway 36 is a fun, less-used option. Difficult hikes Green Mountain via Gregory Canyon or the Amphitheater is arguably Boulder’s best winter summit hike, reaching the 8,150-feet peak in 3 miles one-way. Bear Peak (8,459 feet) via Fern Canyon and South Boulder Peak (8,549 feet) via Shadow Canyon are slightly tougher routes, due to the rocky, steep, shaded trails to the top (which are tougher to descend than to climb). Ambitious hikers can link together these peaks via the Green Bear and Bear Peak West Ridge trails. Walker Ranch has an 8-mile loop that is especially scenic in the winter, notably when the trail crosses South Boulder Creek. And one hike that many people overlook is Sugarloaf Mountain, which stands taller than the Flatirons summits at 8,917 feet. Access roads are maintained to the parking area at the base of Sugarloaf. Views from the summit are a winter treasure, though be warned the wind can really roar near the top.

Board food

An insider’s guide to cool, cheaper eats in Colorado ski country from Dillon to Dotsero by John Lehndorff

do not ski or board nor do I snowshoe. The only black diamond run I attempt is finding a brand of Canadian cheese. I recommend the extra sharp Black Diamond Grand Reserve Cheddar. That said, I’ve spent tons of time in the past year writing food stories and dining guides in the Vail Valley and Summit County plus various I-70 outposts from Dillon to Dotsero and beyond. What I learned is what you already know: Extreme dining sticker shock lurks in Colorado ski country. I marvel at the price of water, never mind a sandwich, in the self-contained “villages” of Vail, Beaver Creek, Keystone and Copper Mountain. In the immortal words of Admiral Ackbar of Star Wars fame: “It’s a trap!” You can pack lunch, but I have found some cool, more affordable food sources tucked away in mountain towns and byways. While some of the eateries are well known to veteran skiers, other stops are under-the-radar or new places. At the very least you should exit the Interstate and grab something good to eat in your car while you are stuck in the stop-and-go at Georgetown.
