WELCOME TO THE TOWN OF BRECKENRIDGE!

ou are currently 9600 feet above sea level with Tenmile Range to the West and the Continental Divide to the East. Breckenridge sits on Ute tribal lands. As a community first inhabited by the Ute tribe and later settled by mining prospectors in 1859, Breckenridge has grown to 5,000 year-round residents, but we know there are many more who call Breckenridge their home away from home. The Town of Breckenridge is home to 60+ miles of town-owned, manicured trails with ample opportunities for travelers to recreate, relax, take in the view while physically distancing and healing in nature. Breckenridge’s collective diversity and community spirit is infectious and is the “vibe” people want to be a part of – it’s why we’re all here. As the world has recently begun to open up again, there is a renewed appreciation to venture out, while still taking care of each other and planet Earth. Known for its world-class outdoor playground and historic downtown, Breckenridge provides memorable experiences while preserving what makes it special for generations to come. Breckenridge is committed to climate action with goals of reducing emissions by 50% by 2030 and 80% by 2050. The Town of Breckenridge protects over 4,800 acres of open space, which are critical for wildlife habitat, recreational opportunities, view corridors, and sequestering carbon in an effort to reduce greenhouse gasses. Recently, Breckenridge launched its first two electric Proterra buses as part of the FreeRide Fleet, and the Town received a $2.1M grant to transition three more buses to all-electric. You can always learn more about Breckenridge’s green commitments at SustainableBreck.com. While we are thrilled to welcome back our visitors to 100% capacity, we encourage all to visit responsibly and

sustainably to ensure that Breckenridge remains healthy and thriving. We are genuinely all in this together. Whether you are a long-time local or a newer arrival, if you are here, you are part of our community. We hope you don’t take this charge lightly but see it as an invitation to join in on the Breckenridge way. Our strong sense of communal resiliency is what has carried us safely through the coronavirus pandemic, and will continue to allow Breckenridge to weather any storms that come our way. The vibrancy and well-being of Breckenridge is a collaborative process. So we ask you to join in and help keep Breckenridge a sustainable destination! The well-being and inclusion of all in our community, along with responsible tourism and sustainability, are our top priorities. Breckenridge is a real mountain town with friendly locals that love living here. We hope you enjoy being a local for however long you’re in town. For additional travel and visiting guidance, please visit www.GoBreck.com. Sincerely,

Mayor Eric Mamula

Came for the Winter and Stayed for the Summer Three Breck visitors dish on how they became fulltime locals.

| GOBRECK.COM

Came for the Winter and Stayed for the Summer

Teague Holmes Ski instructor and owner of TSH Tree Service Teague Holmes will tell you he came here for the winter and stayed for the summer in the grander sense, that this this area, our home, has so much more to offer than just the winter. With that being said, “I love that we are buried in winter here six months out of the year,” Holmes says. The ski mountaineering and skimo racer drove his van from Lake Placid, New York to Breckenridge in the spring of 1998 to teach skiing and climb mountains. Years following, he split time between Vermont and Breck and then Estes Park and Breck until putting down yearround roots in the summer of 2003. “I saw Breckenridge as a small mountain town right actually in the mountains. With very long winters, easy access to the alpine, an incredible summer trail network, a very healthy and growing economy and a central location to travel for climbing and skiing. It became a good fit. And after a few more years, the local friends and relationships have made it hard to leave,” Holmes says. WHAT IS IT ABOUT BRECK LOCALS? How or when does one become a local? I don't recall if or when that may have happened. Long ago, an older gentleman told me you are not a local until you are here for 30 years. Ok, but that is still an arbitrary number relative to one's own arrival. Nearly all of us moved here from somewhere. I think if someone desires to be a 'local' or calls themselves a local they are likely still visiting to some degree. We are all visitors and we all tour and travel. I feel it is unimportant whether we are local, weekend visitors, second homeowners or year-round county residents. What matters is our approach to the towns, people, wildlife and landscapes. And knowing that those who have been before and built this kingdom showed care, forethought and respect. FAVORITE HANGOUTS? The Breckenridge Brewery, South Ridge Seafood, Cool River, La Francaise French Bakery, Giampietro WHERE CAN YOU BE FOUND ON YOUR DAYS OFF? I find myself using trails to get established above treeline. From there, I run the ridges and summits surrounding the town.

MEG LASS

Feature: Came for the Winter and Stayed for the Summer

Meg Lass remembers when Main Street Breckenridge was a modest mélange of wood planked sidewalks, hippies and ski bums. That was 1960-something, when she and her husband David came to ski Breckenridge for the first time. During the Vietnam war, the couple sold everything and traveled around the world for a year on $10-a-dayeach budget. They ran out of money somewhere around Scandinavia and David connected with an old legal aid colleague from Denver who offered him a job in Breckenridge. They landed here in 1973. Neither had lived in a small town before; she being from Grand Rapids, Michigan; he from Chicago. “The beauty and the quiet were something to get used to, coming from the city,” she says. A few years in, Meg started a career with the Breckenridge Resort Association stuffing mailers to potential vacationers, later becoming director and instituting beloved traditions that include the Breckenridge Film Festival. Meg later went on to found Breckenridge-based marketing agency Wilson Lass. DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT BRECKENRIDGE DAY? A mid-morning hike and then go into town and hit Amazing Grace, see people, chat. We also like to hangout at Ridge Street Wine. WHAT ARE YOUR GO-TO TRAILS? We’re big hikers. There are great trails near our home in Blue River off of Hoosier Pass, McCullough Gulch and Red Mountain. Secret trails we found a long time ago. FAVORITE HANGOUTS? Amazing Grace. We have hung out there for years. It’s a place where a lot of old locals still go. We also like Fatty’s, Ember and Relish. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE COMMUNITY VIBE? What I love about this community is I find it to be really inclusive. You can be yourself and be accepted here. Everyone is really generous with their time, their expertise, their charity. And our leaders have always been forward thinkers. I love that.

ERic Mamula Breckenridge Mayor Eric Mamula moved around a lot as a kid. His father’s pharmaceutical job meant a new state every year. After graduating from Moravian College in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, he helped his parents move to Breckenridge to retire. The plan was to attend law school in Vermont. But Mamula decided to stay for a year and help his dad open Café Breckenridge. (His father wasn’t a sit-still kind of guy and also wound up serving as mayor of Breckenridge from 2000 to 2004.) “One thing led to another,” Mamula says. “One year led to two, led to 10, led to 30.” His father’s footsteps laid an admirable path and Mamula opened popular pizzeria and pub Downstairs at Eric’s in 1989 and began his own mayoral term in 2016 after eight years on town council. “I have this distinct memory of driving back to Breck after a year in the Air Force,” Mamula says. “I came around the corner on Highway 9, saw the whole mountain range in front of me. And that was it for me. I said this is home.” FAVORITE HANGOUTS? The Crown, Mountain Flying Fish, Aurum. WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT OTHER LOCALS? The amount of time that people give to this community, all of the nonprofit volunteers, all of those people who donate their time to Breck Music, the Breckenridge Tourism Office, FIRC Family & Intercultural Resource Center (FIRC), and so many others. WHAT MAKES BRECK STAND OUT? The great sense of community here. I really like the fact that there are people who visit for two weeks a year that feel at home in Breckenridge.

Feature: Came for the Winter and Stayed for the Summer

And the citizen-driven push for sustainability. We have a memorandum with Excel Energy; we’re the first in the country to have a deal with a major energy provider to switch from coal to solar. We hired a sustainability director. We’re increasing recycling efforts. Restaurant composting is my next push. (Mamula’s restaurant diverted 13 tons of compost from landfills in just three months last winter.) YOUR DREAM BRECKENRIDGE DAY? Coffee and breakfast with my wife and kid, Sarah and Quinn. Sarah goes for a run, I go for a good long mountain bike ride and then hangout on the deck at home with the family. We’ll walk the dogs together—the Wellington Trail is right out our back door. If there’s an event going on—I love Town Party, Fourth of July, Oktoberfest—we’ll hit that.

Finding Fresh All Over Town From fresh concepts to fresh flavors, Breckenridge’s dynamic restaurant scene is on par with - or several thousand feet above – any big city .

ost people can agree that even a smashed peanut butter sandwich tastes amazing on the slopes or on the hiking trail. By that same logic, uniquely Colorado, seasonally fresh, chef-inspired eats are especially mind blowing at 9,600 feet. As luck would have it, Breckenridge is rife with fresh offerings – not only in the way of comestibles, but as far as concepts, too. Ember, a mainstay of Breck’s fine dining scene for more than a decade and Semplice Cafe, the brand new casual breakfast/lunch haunt are two shining examples of creative menus comprised of the freshest ingredients while Mimi & Pin offers an equally tasty and unique experience for desserts in Breckenridge.

| GOBRECK.COM

Not only has owner/chef Scott Boshaw been sourcing as many ingredients as possible from nearby farmers and ranchers since opening Ember in 2009, but he’s found delightfully inventive and flavorful ways to combine them into a menu that is basically a taste bud carnival. Whether it’s soft shell crab with marcona almonds, dates and phyllo crust, elk drizzled in pine cone syrup and paired with blue cheese mashed potatoes or quail with miso-maple brown butter, even the most discerning foodies will admit that an Ember dining experience delivers unique charms to their palate. Rest assured, new culinary masterpieces arrive on the menu constantly, completely depending on what’s fresh. Also, Ember offers an aptly named Euphoric Hour from 4 to 5:30 p.m., presenting a prime opportunity to taste small, innovative bites and sip discounted drinks.

Finding Fresh All Over Town

Ember

Semplice Café

In musical terms, “semplice” describes a simple type of performance. This holds true for Semplice Café, the newest coffee/breakfast/lunch nook on Main Street. Offering every iteration of fresh coffee as well as a creative variety of burritos, toasts and paninis made right before your eyes, Semplice is a grab-and-go sort of joint that keeps it simple, but only with the freshest ingredients, chopped and mixed daily. Accommodating vegan and gluten-free diets, some of the café’s finest fare incorporates unlikely yet tasty ingredients like siracha and maple syrup in the Can’t Even Vegan, which is also stuffed with spinach, sweet potato and quinoa, or the Appleleen Panini with apples, Havarti and cheddar cheeses and bacon. This historic shack serving sweet sandwiches is quickly becoming everyone’s go-to for a fresh bite before hitting the mountain.

Local artist Profile: Andrew Dengate

he Town of Breckenridge instituted a 10-cent fee for single-use bags in 2013 in an effort to encourage sustainability. In 2017, the Town put a call out to artists to design the next reusable shopping bag. When Andrew Dengate read about the contest, he knew exactly what the design should be. He gathered his Sharpies, watercolors and colored pencils and poured his passion for the mountains and sustainability into four creative panels. Dengate’s winning hand-drawn design tells the story of Breckenridge through its seasons, peaks, skiers, bikers, hikers and wildlife. He tells us how the ski resort opened in 1961, how the Breckenridge Open Space Program celebrated 20 years in 2017 and how, in 1950, our booming Colorado home nearly became a ghost town dwindling to just 296 residents. Dengate, 30, grew up in an artistic household just outside of Detroit. His dad was an oil painter and he remembers having backyard painting sessions with his sister. Though he attended the University of Michigan to study biology, he says there has always been a nagging inner leaning calling him to create. His colorful Breckenridge reusable bag design is the sublime blending of Dengate’s backgrounds, weaving art and biology to celebrate environment. Following his devotion to rock climbing, Dengate found himself ping-ponging between Boulder and Summit County after college. He made the leap to full-time mountain living in 2013 and, like many locals, balances a variety of jobs to support a mountain lifestyle.

Producing 50,000 of Dengate’s beautiful bags annually, Breckenridge’s reusable bag program has likely saved millions of single-use plastic and paper bags since its inception. The Town is diligent about providing the reusable bags to lodging and retail partners to ensure residents and visitors are never without. The good news is, visitors are taking these bags home with them—Dengate’s family in Minnesota and Michigan sees his blue, pink, green and purple bag pop up in the Midwest all the time—and Breck’s good example is spreading.

“

It was a love for our natural resources that brought me out here and keeps me here,

”

Dengate says.

The awareness piece is huge, Dengate says. We’re starting to ask ourselves, “Do I really need a straw? Do I need a coffee sleeve? Can I bring my own bag?” “There are a ton of road blocks to recycling,” he says. “We want it to be super easy. But it’s not. If the bags take one tiny step toward the greater cause, we’re doing something right.” Buy a bag at the Breckenridge Welcome Center (203 S. Main St.) when you’re in town and more about Breckenridge’s sustainability efforts at sustainablebreck.com/recycling.

ust like the magnificent peaks that drew the silversmith to Breckenridge, Katie Pickens’ head-turning jewelry stands boldly alone.

rings. Pickens’ rings are big, bold statement makers and often call on healing stones sourced from rock and gem shows in Arizona and Colorado.

The 37-year-old designer is notching a name for herself in the Colorado makers scene with handmade necklaces, bracelets and, most famously, her striking sterling silver and stone rings.

She revels in tapping organic miners—her favorite turquoise supplier is Clint Cross of North Star Turquoise in Cripple Creek, Colorado. Quality is paramount and Pickens prefers natural high gem grade turquoise for its strength and durability.

The Grand Junction, Colorado native studied Environmental Design at the University of Colorado Boulder. She landed in Breckenridge after college in 2005, lured by the high-energy snowboarding culture. “I decided to be a ski bum for a season and never left,” she says. “It’s the classic story of most long-term residents here.” After a decade of Summit ski bumming, Pickens knew she wanted more. A trip to Santa Fe in 2014 awoke a passion for the American Southwest, its landscape, mystery and textiles. Inspiration hit hard and she discovered her love of jewelry as an outlet of self expression. Pickens enrolled in the Denver School of Metal and Arts and underwent a private study, hungrily picking up classes around Denver and Santa Fe to hone her newfound craft.

Makers Profile: KP Mountain Metals

KP Mountain MEtals

KP Mountain Metals upholds its unrefined boho vibe while incorporating everyday endurance. “I want people to have the ability to wear their pieces while hiking and snowboarding,” Pickens says. “A lot of my friends work in the service industry and want a solid piece of jewelry that is going to withstand a 12hour day and not bend or be compromised.” Watch for new collections to roll out this year following Pickens’ Tucson travels, along with rising buzz around her custom dog tags inspired by her husky heeler Bisbee. KP Mountain Metals can be found at Vintage Sweet & Chic on Main Street in Breckenridge. Visit @kpmountainmetals on Instagram for Pickens’ latest creations and to order custom pieces.

Today, the talented metalsmith works from her Breckenridge home studio under the name KP Mountain Metals and has amassed an earnest, borderline cult, local following. Fans adore her Southwestern and Native American-influenced turquoise
