New low-income option to receive $11M in tax credits Scott Franz
STEAMBOAT TODAY
STEAMBOAT SPRINGS
The Yampa Valley Housing Authority is a big step closer to delivering the first new low-income apartment units in Steamboat Springs in more than 15 years. The Housing Authority and development partner Overland Property Group recently learned its 48-unit affordable housing project in west Steamboat will be backed by nearly $11 million in low-income housing tax credits from the Colorado Housing Finance Authority.

“We’re just over-the-top excited,” Housing Authority Executive Director Jason Peasley said. “That’s obviously the biggest hurdle to getting this thing done, is securing the funding for it.” The tax credits will be sold to investors to enable the Housing Authority to bring more equity to its partnership with Overland.

A high-speed pursuit Thursday ended with the arrest of a Fort Collins man, as well as some broken fences, at a local equestrian ranch. Jeffrey R. Depue, 32, was booked into Routt County Jail on suspicion of felony criminal attempt, felony second-degree burglary, reckless driving, felony vehicular eluding, driving under the influence of drugs, criminal
mischief and felony possession of a controlled substance. About 2:15 p.m., Routt County Sheriff’s Office deputies were called to a report of a suspicious person in the Silver Spur subdivision. Lt. Doug Scherar said a resident reported a man jiggled her door handle and tried to get into her house. The resident saw the man circle around the block. While deputies were responding, a second resident called and said a man knocked on the door See Chase, page 2

The city’s busiest shopping center will not be impacted by major road construction this year after all. After receiving a single construction bid that was about 25 percent over the anticipated cost of the project, the city of Steamboat Springs has decided to hold off on the reconstruction of Central Park Drive until next year. Public Works Director Chuck Anderson said the city plans to reopen the bidding process for the project in the fall.

The road will be realigned, and traffic will be reduced to one lane each direction on the new roadway. In addition, asphalt will be replaced, and sidewalk connections will be improved. Anderson said part of the reason the project is not happening this year stemmed from the challenge of securing easements and right-of-way acquisitions for the project. He added the work requires a couple of technical subcontractors that were sparse this time of year.

“We’re anticipating it will be more favorable when we go back out and rebid it,” Anderson said. He said going forward with the project this summer would also have been too impactful on the community. The work would have stopped in the winter and had to continue in the spring. “We’ll line up the timing to have less of an impact on the community,” Anderson said. The project will add new bike lanes, dedicated pedestrian crossings and a roundabout where Central Park Drive runs between Mount Werner and Pine Grove roads.
Chase continued from 1 and asked for directions. When deputies contacted the suspect vehicle, the driver fled out the back of Silver Spur on Routt County Road 42. The driver then turned onto Routt County Road 44 and headed back toward U.S. Highway 40. Scherar said a deputy reported following the driver at 70 mph. A trooper was staked out at the C.R. 42 and U.S. 40 intersection west of Steamboat Springs, and the driver turned into Saddle Mountain Ranch, where the driver went through fences and in and out of the outdoor horse arena.

would have ranged from $710 to $1,065, and three-bedroom units would have rented from $820 on the low end to $1,230 at the top of the scale. Peasley said the last lowincome apartment project built in the city was Mountain Village Apartments. Those units were completed in the late 1990s. “It’s long overdue for us to be developing this supply of apartments,” Peasley said.

The housing project, tentatively called The Reserves at Steamboat, was one of 31 in the state vying for tax credits from the CHFA in a competitive application process. Peasley said letters of support from local businesses and community members and a $400,000 financial pledge from the city of Steamboat Springs and Routt County helped the housing project earn the financial support from the state and rise above other projects. The apartments in Steamboat will be built on land owned by the Housing Authority on Elk River Road, and the units will be available to households earning 40 to 60 percent of the area’s median income. The project also will allow the Housing Authority to get out from under the debt it has been saddled with on the Elk River property. “When we did get the approval, they said we had a great project, and the community support was overwhelming and really helped us,” Peasley said. “It’s rare you’ll get approved the first time around. I think we had a really strong team and a really compelling story around the need for affordable housing here in Steamboat.” That need has been a topic of discussion at recent city council and county commissioner meetings, as well as among the local business community. The local rental market was so tight during the winter, two of the city’s biggest lodging operations rented rooms in defunct hotels to house their seasonal employees. The Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association is also concerned about the local housing station. “With the economic recovery, people are getting priced out of the market,” Chamber CEO Jim Clark said. “We can’t provide employees to any of our businesses if the employees don’t have a place to live.” Clark welcomed the news that the housing project in west Steamboat is moving forward
and said it was a “big step” toward overcoming local housing shortages. Overland and the Housing Authority are hoping to break ground on their housing project as soon as next spring. The city has approved the conceptual design for the apartment project, but not all the entitlements are in place yet. Peasley told Steamboat Today in May rental rates at The Reserves would vary on a scale based on renters’ household income. As of May 2015, monthly rent for the two-bedroom units

Mount Werner Water and Sanitation District General Manager Frank Alfone said July 24 that, after purchasing the Shop & Hop convenience store and gas station on U.S. Highway 40 this month to protect its nearby well field along the Yampa River from contamination, the near-term intention of his board of directors is to return the site to “its natural condition.” “We would like to reserve the right, potentially, to put a new (water filtration) plant on that site,” Alfone said. “There’s an outside chance it could be used for another treatment facility, but that would be well down the road.” Records on file at Routt County confirm the water district purchased the property from Terry Marcum on July 24 for $750,000. Alfone confirmed the price is justified by the goal of protecting its nearby alluvial well field along the

Yampa just downstream from Dougherty Drive and immediately to the west of Majestic Valley Townhomes. The well fields provide 20 percent of the Steamboat Springs’ water supply, with the majority coming from Fish Creek. The Water District released a press release saying the owner of Shop & Hop had plans to expand its operation to add diesel fuel and food service, which, in its view, might have triggered the need to expand the facility’s septic system. “Protection of our groundwater resource is of paramount importance to our community and is consistent with the mission of the district,” Board President Kathy Connell was quoted saying in the release. Marcum could not be immediately reached for comment Thursday afternoon. The release went on to say: “The continued operation of the convenience store had become a concern of the district since contaminated soils and a 300-foot plume of contaminants were discovered on site in 2000. State-mandated remedial work was initiated in

2000 and the clean-up completed in 2011. However, the possibility of another sub-surface leak or surface spill or the effects of the cumulative surface contamination would continue to pose a risk to the community’s groundwater supply and the district’s multi-million dollar investment in well field infrastructure.” Shop & Hop has been located on the west side of U.S. Highway 40, just south of the city limits, and Routt County Commissioner Doug Monger confirmed this week that it is among a small handful of grandfathered commercial properties existing outside of urban centers in the county. Any change of use in the future would required the owners to come back to the county for a permit, he added. Shop and Hop, in the meantime, has ceased operations, and Marcum is expected to begin decommissioning fuel storage tanks and related infrastructure this summer.
With limited supplies, the town is asking residents and businesses to limit water use to essential functions. No irrigating or vehicle washing is allowed. The town posted orange notices at key places in the community informing residents of the issue. Water use can resume to normal once the notices are removed.

When members of the Steamboat Springs High School class of 1995 assemble for their 20th reunion here today and Saturday, they’ll set aside some time to send positive thoughts to a classmate, David Virgili, who is in Portland, Oregon, undergoing treatment for Hodgkin’s lymphoma (cancer of the lymphatic system). Classmate Renee Patterson Gaerlan, who is organizing the reunion, said Virgili, who spent the last four years teaching English as a second language in several Asian countries, was diagnosed within a month of returning to the United States. “This is a disease that’s terrible, and David has no one right now,” Gaerlan said. “I’ve been on the phone with a lot of my classmates, and it’s devastating. What’s special about my class is that we’ve been friends since grade school, and we’re still friends. There have been many situations over the last 20 years when we’ve been there for everybody. I’m so excited to see my friends – I’m sure tears will be shed.” Matt Cloven — who now lives in Denver, where he advocates for children with disabilities — counts Virgili among his best high school buddies and has created a Go Fund Me account in his friend’s name. As of Thursday afternoon, the site had raised $1,975 over the span of four days. Cloven recalls Virgili as a free spirit who loved the outdoors and brought a touch of Southern California to Steamboat Springs High School when he moved here to live with an aunt and uncle after his own mother died of cancer. “He was a long-haired surfer boy then when he showed up in Steamboat,” Cloven said. “He dreamed big and has traveled to so many countries. He’s been able to be absorbed into different cultures and collected amazing stories.” Naturally, Virgili won’t be the only member of the graduating class of ’95 who won’t make it to Steamboat this weekend. Ironically, Todd Lodwick, the Olympic medalist whose name is likely the most recognizable of all of his classmates, will be attending the high school reunion of a friend in another state, Gaerlan said. Another classmate, Jonathan Bricklin, who has gained fame as an actor in the AOL show, “Connected,” is a maybe. Joe Panepinto will be coaching football in Gunnison this weekend, and Mark Dudley is making preparations for his wedding in Denver. Eric McClelland is on the confirmed list. Lisa Goodrich Carter, and her husband and former classmate, Ben Carter, are confirmed. Nicole Andrew Struble, who teaches school in Steamboat, is expected to attend. Gaerlan, a former city of Steamboat Springs fire technician now living in Norfolk, Virginia, is looking forward to seeing Ann Acker Hodgden at the reunion. She isn’t certain about the status of class valedictorian Kristin Wolff, who was also class treasurer. Brenda Duncan was the class president, Mindy Wagner was the V.P. and Kerry Brophy was the secretary. The class of ’95 was high school princi-

Western lifestyles, as well as those who had never even heard of the United States. “You could whiz around the world and hit major cities and see nothing else on a cruise ship,” McGee said. “We deliberately avoided major cities and spent time everywhere we went. You get to know people in a totally different way when you don’t have an agenda, and we came away from the trip believing in the goodness and hospitality people offer you with the simplest request for reciprocity.” McGee’s presentation is one of the programs the Steamboat Springs Yacht Club hosts for its members once per month at Aurum Food & Wine. It is the first geared toward fundraising for the burgeoning club, which has grown from 60 people at its inaugural meeting to more than 100 and ranges from people with a casual interest to people who, like McGee, have sailed around the world. Cocktail hour will begin at 6 p.m., followed by McGee’s presentation at 7. Copies of “Voices on the Wind” will be available for purchase and signing. Tickets are available for $10 at All That, The Shoe Chalet and, if not sold out by the time of the show, at the Chief Theater. All proceeds will go to the Steamboat Springs Yacht Club.

In 1984, Steamboat Springs resident Bonnie McGee and her then-husband left their jobs as teachers for a sailing voyage across the world, a burning desire for adventure fueling their leap. Thirty-one years and a book later, the Steamboat Springs Yacht Club will feature McGee and her story at its inaugural club fundraiser at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Chief Theater. At the fundraiser, McGee will share the presentation with which she briefly toured the country when her book, “Voices on the Wind,” was published in 2009. The book features pictures and vignettes of the myriad people she met throughout the four and a half years she spent circumnavigating the world. “My take is that sailors are the last bastions of freedom,” McGee said. “We had no idea how long we would take to do this, and there are no signposts in the ocean. It’s such a free thing that you can come and go from place to place.” “Bonnie is a renaissance women,” said Rick Bear, founder of the Steamboat Springs Yacht Club and Allergic to Cities. “She’s the kind of person that you’ll love chatting with, because she’ll tell you so many things that she experienced on and off the boat.” Whether or not audiences spontaneously buy a sailboat after her presentation, they will sure catch the travel and adventure virus. “I always tell people, when you get me talking about sailing, it’s contagious,” McGee said. “It’s interesting, because people have the dream or the idea, but when they’re with someone like me who has done it, you realize that ordinary people can take trips like this.” Through her four-and-a-half-year voyage around the world, McGee sailed alongside porpoises leaving a trail of phosphorescence in the night sea, hid in her cabin in fear that a cargo boat would smash her 33-foot sail boat in the blinding fog off the coast of Cape Town and even watched a circumcision ritual. She would spend days without sight of land and months waiting for the weather and seasons to provide her and her then-husband a window for safe travel. Along the way, they bonded with people with

letter to the editor
4-H youth hard at work Scattered across the county, Routt County 4-H youth members are busy at work every day getting ready for the Routt County Fair. Many have had their animals since November, feeding and caring for them daily. The Routt County Fair takes place Aug. 7 to 16. The culminating event for the kids who have a livestock project is the Junior Livestock Sale at 5:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 15, where they will sell their animals. There are many ways you can support the Junior Livestock Sale. You can purchase an animal with a group of buyers, donate the meat to charity or add on money to a member’s final bid. Here are some reasons to support the sale: ■ 4-H animals are some of the best quality in the nation and are locally raised, drug-free and support efforts to
use the whole animal. ■ 4-H supports the education of local children and encourages articulate, well-spoken, organized and adaptable youth to pursue success in life. ■ 4-H members have to keep business records properly on their animals, which encourages financial responsibility. It is estimated that over 80 percent of kids use their money from the sale for higher education. ■ Knowing where your food comes from is not only very important, but it teaches a lifelong lesson to children, while shaping their future decisions in regards to food, cooking and nutrition. ■ 4-H sets high standards of care for the animals that are exhibited in its shows. It gives participants a good, solid motivation for practicing the best animal care that they can. It also encourages the young agriculturalists to educate themselves more on things like animal and crop genetics.
Readers weigh in ■ You are encouraging our youth to see the value that hard work pays off. ■ Free advertising — as a buyer you will be recognized in several ways. ■ Support youth who give back to our community. A Tuft’s University study on 4-H found participants get better grades and make wiser social decisions than their peers. The study also found 4-H participants are three times more likely to contribute to their communities when compared to kids who don’t participate in 4-H. Routt County is recognized as having one of the top sales in Northwest Colorado. There are many businesses and individuals who have supported the Junior Livestock Sale for years — some for more than 50 years. I urge you to make our sale the top in the state and support our Routt County youth.

Commentary
Today’s exhausted superkids Frank Bruni
New York Times
There are several passages in the new book “Overloaded and Underprepared” that fill me with sadness for American high school students, the most driven of whom are forever in search of a competitive edge. Some use stimulants like Adderall. Some cheat. But the part of the book that somehow got to me most was about sleep. It’s a prerequisite for healthy growth. It’s a linchBruni pin of sanity. Before adulthood, a baseline amount is fundamental and nonnegotiable, or should be. But many teenagers today are so hyped-up and stressed-out that they’re getting only a fraction of the rest they need. The book mentions a high school in Silicon Valley that brought in outside sleep experts, created a kind of sleep curriculum and trained students as “sleep ambassadors,” all to promote shut-eye. The school even held a contest that asked students for sleep slogans. The winner: “Life is lousy when you’re drowsy.” Sleep ambassadors? Sleep rhymes? Back when I was in high school in the 1980s, in a setting considered intense in its day, the most common sleep problem among my peers was getting too much of it and not waking up in time for class. Now, the concern isn’t how to rouse teens but how to lull them. And that says everything about the way childhood has been transformed — at least among an ambitious, privileged subset
of Americans — into an insanely programmed, status-obsessed and sometimes spirit-sapping race. Take one more advanced placement class. Add another extracurricular. Apply to all eight Ivies. Lose a few winks, but never a few steps. “Overloaded and Underprepared,” published on Tuesday, was written by Denise Pope, Maureen Brown and Sarah Miles, all affiliated with a Stanford University-based group called Challenge Success, which urges more balanced learning environments. The book looks at homework loads, schoolday structures and much more. And it joins an urgently needed body of literature that pushes back at helicopter parenting, exorbitant private tutoring, exhaustive preparation for standardized tests and the rest of it. This genre goes back at least a decade and includes, notably, Madeline Levine’s “The Price of Privilege” and Paul Tough’s “How Children Succeed.” But it has expanded with particular velocity of late. “How to Raise an Adult,” by Julie Lythcott-Haims, came out last month. “The Gift of Failure,” by Jessica Lahey, will be released in two weeks. There’s a unifying theme: Enough is enough. “At some point, you have to say, ‘Whoa! This is too crazy,’” Pope, a senior lecturer at Stanford, told me. Sleep deprivation is just a part of the craziness, but it’s a perfect shorthand for childhoods bereft of spontaneity, stripped of real play and haunted by the “pressure of perfection,” to quote the headline on a story by Julie Scelfo in The Times this week.
Scelfo wrote about six suicides in a 13-month period at the University of Pennsylvania; about the prevalence of anxiety and depression on college campuses; about many star students’ inability to cope with even minor setbacks, which are foreign and impermissible. Those students almost certainly need more sleep. In a study in the medical journal, Pediatrics, this year, about 55 percent of American teenagers from the ages of 14 to 17 reported that they were getting less than seven hours a night, though the National Sleep Foundation counsels 8 to 10. “I’ve got kids on a regular basis telling me that they’re getting five hours,” Pope said. That endangers their mental and physical health. Smartphones and tablets aggravate the problem, keeping kids connected and distracted long after lights out. But in communities where academic expectations run highest, the real culprit is panic: about acing the exam, burnishing the transcript, keeping up with highachieving peers. I’ve talked with many parents in these places. They say they’d love to pull their children off such a fast track, but won’t the other children wind up ahead? They might — if “ahead” is measured only by a spot in U-Penn’s freshman class and if securing that is all that matters. But what about giving a kid the wiggle room to find genuine passions, the freedom to discover true independence, the space to screw up and bounce back? Shouldn’t that matter as much? “No one is arguing for a generation of mediocre or underachieving kids See Bruni, page 9

Huckabee’s ‘oven’ remark words, ‘never again,’” Netanyahu said to bipartisan applause. “And I wish I could promise you, Elie, that the lessons of history have been learned. I can only urge the leaders of the world not to repeat the mistakes of the past.” What mistakes? Precisely the mistakes Huckabee says Obama is making. It’s the same argument. And it’s not a dumb argument. At least it’s not a dumb argument if you listen to the Iranians. As my National Review colleague, David French, recently catalogued, Iranian civil, military and religious leaders have for years vowed to “wipe Israel off the map,” deliver a new Holocaust (while denying the first one happened), etc. Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Iran’s pet terrorist group, Hezbollah, has said, “If all the Jews gathered in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them worldwide. ... It is an open war until the elimination of Israel and until the death of the last Jew on earth.” Until that time, Hezbollah has had to make do with killing Jews where they find them. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry don’t take the Iranians at their word when they say they want to kill Jews, no matter how clearly and consistently they say it. But they trust the Iranians to stick to their word on this nuclear agreement (which would be a bad agreement even if Iran could be trusted). George W. Bush was routinely compared to Hitler with a fraction of the outcry Huckabee has received. Perhaps that’s because Huckabee’s real sin has nothing to do with Hitler analogies and everything to do with Iranian reality.

It’s been a hard time for politicians not named “Trump” to get any attention, but Mike Huckabee managed it. He did it by comparing Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler. At least that’s what I gathered from headlines like this one from Gawker: “Mike HuckGoldberg abee Compares Obama to Hitler.” I don’t put huge amounts of stock in Gawker headlines (or really any headlines on the Internet), but then I saw that CNN’s Wolf Blitzer said Huckabee had “essentially likened (Barack Obama) to Adolf Hitler.” National Journal’s Ron Fournier went on a tear on Twitter, insisting that Huckabee apologize for comparing Obama to Hitler. And of course, Hillary Clinton and Obama himself denounced Huckabee for making a Hitler comparison. Clinton even said she was “really offended personally,” as if her feelings are what really matters. Here is what Huckabee said in full during an interview with Breitbart News: “This president’s foreign policy is the most feckless in American history. It is so naive that he would trust the Iranians. By doing so, he will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven. This is the most idiotic thing, this Iran deal. It should be rejected by both Democrats and Republicans in Congress and by the American people. I read the whole deal. We gave away the whole store. It’s got to be stopped.” Now, I’ve never been a big
fan of Huckabee’s style of politics — or policy. But a remotely fair reading of the statement strongly suggests that Huckabee was comparing Obama to Neville Chamberlain or some other member of the “Hitler is a man we can do business with” school. That’s the point of calling Obama “naive” for trusting the Iranians — the Hitler in Huckabee’s analogy. We can parse more deeply if we must. Hitler didn’t march Jews to the doors of the ovens, but into them. The Iranians are the ones with sinister intentions in Huckabee’s description, not Obama, who, again, is described as naive and feckless, not sinister and evil. Huckabee probably shouldn’t have used the word “march” because it muddies his point. “Delivered to” or “abandoned at” would have worked better. I think, as a general rule, one should pretty much always avoid talking about Jews and ovens unless discussing the actual Holocaust. And one could argue that Huckabee, who insists he never compared Obama to Hitler, was cynically hoping to be misconstrued in order to get some media attention — which he got. But on the merits, Huckabee isn’t saying anything lots of serious people haven’t said, albeit more eloquently. In countless speeches, Bibi Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders have stressed that the legacy of the Holocaust is such that Israel cannot take a chance on Iran having a nuclear weapon. In his address to Congress in March, Netanyahu movingly singled out Holocaust survivor and Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel from the audience. “Elie, your life and work inspires to give meaning to the

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4265 invites the community to join them as they welcome a unique group coming through Craig this week. Roaring into town at about 3:30 p.m. today will be the Veterans Charity Ride to Sturgis, a cross-country motorcycle journey for men and women who have served their nation in the Armed Forces, an effort which raises awareness about vets who have been injured in the line of duty. Starting in Los Angeles earlier this week — complete with a send-off by comedian and bike enthusiast Jay Leno — the ride went through Las Vegas before driving through Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon and other stops in Utah. As the venture comes through Colorado, the bikers will take a break in Craig before pressing on to Hahn’s Peak for the night, moving along into Wyoming before arriving in Sturgis, South Dakota, for the 75th annual Sturgis Rally early next week. People from Northwest Colorado are welcome to meet and mingle with the veteran riders during their stopover at the VFW, whether it’s to trade stories between those who have seen combat or for civilians to drop by and salute vets for their sacrifice. Craig’s David Grabowski aided in bringing the route through town. Having served in the U.S. Army from 1986 to 1992, he feels the endeavor will be one the local populace will want to join, even in a small way. “Craig does a great job of supporting its veterans, and I suggest everybody get out and say ‘hi,’ see some great motorcycles and meet some great veterans that served for us and show our support,” he said. For more information on tracking the ride, who’s involved or how to donate, visit veterans charityride.org.

Group to embark on Iconic ride Dave Wittinger
For Steamboat Today
REDUCED
21146032
For nearly a decade, a group of cyclists have gathered at Smartwool headquarters in Steamboat Springs to begin a journey they call the “Ride to O.R.” This year’s trek starts today, and I will have the honor of traveling alongside these riders who are banded together by their love for adventure. It all started in 2006, when Mark Satkiewicz, president of Smartwool, brought together some of his outdoor industry chums with a simple plan to ride their bikes to the Outdoor Retailer trade show in Salt Lake City, Utah. The ride’s original support was a lone Subaru with the driver following along, handing out water, energy bars and peanut butter sandwiches. Satkiewicz and his posse chased the sun each day, covering more than 360 miles on a journey that eventually evolved into an annual tradition. Before I started packing my bags for this year’s ride, I had the chance to sit down with Joe Solomon, owner of Iconic Adventures, the Steamboatbased travel company that now helps orchestrate Smartwool’s “Ride to O.R.” I wanted to better understand what I should expect from the ride and the local company that specializes in custom-crafted group travel services. Sometime in early 2010, Solomon left his coveted job with another well-known travel company to start something of his own. With no existing clients, Solomon reached out to Satkiewicz and his team at Smartwool and offered to help Smartwool turn its ride into something very special. “The biggest challenge of this new venture turned out to be the parts of the job I didn’t even know existed when I first launched Iconic,” Solomon said. “I tend to run things on what I now call the swan theory.” Solomon explained that his swan theory correlates to how beautiful and serene a swan appears above the surface of the water while its feet are churning underneath. Making sure things look easy
and operate smoothly is what Iconic Adventures strives for when hosting events like the Smartwool ride. “The first year we got involved it started with a few support staff and a trailer to haul supplies,” Solomon said. “Now we have a fleet of 24-foot box trucks, a traveling chef, a yoga instructor, a bike mechanic and eight support staff.” As we talked in detail about this year’s ride, it was clear Solomon values his relationship with Smartwool. “This ride launched my company,” Solomon said. “Mark has been an incredible partner to work with, and I owe him a large amount of gratitude for trusting me to care for him and his staff.” The 2015 junket will feature a wide range of riders, including Smartwool employees, athletes from the USSA Center of Excellence, sales reps from across the country, shop owners who carry Smartwool products and other industry kin. “The idea is to bring together a group of people who are unified in the spirit of their profession,” Solomon added. “This group will endure over 80 miles of pedaling a day, battling chip and seal, glass, heat and whatever else might happen along the way. But there’s a contagious vibe of positivity that happens on this trip, and it’s hard to explain.” Solomon said the ride has evolved over the years as an extension of Satkiewicz’s vision. There’s no denying that great leadership spawns great brands, and Smartwool sits as one of the leaders in the outdoor apparel world. So as I continue to pare down my gear in anticipation of the ride, I can’t help but get excited as I realize the next week of my life has the potential to alter the way I see the road ahead. I invite you to join me on this journey by following the Steamboat Pilot & Today’s Twitter (#SteamboatPilot), Facebook and Instagram (SteamboatPilot) accounts where I’ll be posting pictures and updates over the next five days.

Routt County Fair is best
W
e’ve come a long way since 1914, but the “feeling” of the fair remains the same, according to Sandy Boston, of Hayden, who says, “Because no matter where you’re from — a big city or a little town — the Routt County Fair makes you feel as if you’ve come home.” And that is exactly what the folks who coordinate the fair like to hear. With continued county support and tens of thousands of hours from dedicated volunteers, today’s Routt County Fair is held on the same tract of land as it was 101 years ago. The Routt County Fair was born of a time when “children did chores, arrowheads could be found on the back 40 and ice was cut from the river.” Since then, we’ve seen “the outhouse hauled away, the plow horse replaced by a John Deere and farm kids majoring in agribusiness.” The fair honors the pioneers

who gathered at the Routt County fairgrounds 101 years ago to share laughter and lies. In 1914, many felt that Hayden was the perfect place for a county fair. Though located on the western end of Routt County, it was the center of Northwest Colorado, which included vast areas of Routt County and the newly formed Moffat County. The success of Railroad Days (a 1913 event celebrating train cars full of the best steers and hogs), coupled with the town’s enthusiasm for hosting an annual celebration, led to the birth of the Routt County Fair in September 1914. State Sen. John Cary, of Hayden, encouraged using a
fair to promote the agricultural products of the region and proposed that land south of town — the site of some ball fields and a crude race track — become a permanent fair and racing track. The group that hosted Railroad Days, meeting informally in the back of a local store, organized the Routt County Fair and Racing Association in November 1913, which was incorporated in August 1914. The location became “permanent” when the association purchased 40 acres at $50 per acre from Wilson Cary, who took half the payment in association stock. In time for the 1915 fair, the grounds boasted a 1,000seat grandstand, an improved
race track, a livestock shed, a large corral and an exhibit hall housing fair offices and surrounded by balcony for agricultural displays. Immediately prior to opening, it was decided to build another small building for restrooms. The Great Depression forced the cancellation of events in 1932, 1933 and 1934, and on March 13, 1934, in an attempt to save the event, the association deeded the rairgrounds to Routt County. Today’s fair is organized by the Routt County Fair Advisory Board, a nine-member volunteer board appointed by the county commissioners. While this board works closely with the commissioners, it’s the board members who spend countless hours to produce the annual Routt County Fair for the enjoyment of locals and visitors alike. They truly deserve your thanks for a job well done. The 101st annual Routt

I’m constantly researching ways to keep Skippy comfortable when I have to leave her unattended inside my car. Hot cars or trucks can create a coffin for someone left inside. We hear about these devastating cases through the year, but for some of us, leaving our dog at home is either not an option or we are taking a road trip for adventures with our canine buddy. Here are some ideas on how I manage my dog in my car. It begins with planning and spending some money and packing up your hot weather gear.

what expensive, but that investment has paid me back time and again. There are less expensive fans out there, but if you go with this option, be sure you know how long the batteries will last. If your dog will ride in a kennel crate, the best one for summer is a wire crate, which allows the air to circulate very well. You can wet down towels or an old sheet and drape them over the crate, and as they dry, they will help cool the air. And don’t forget a chill mat. These are made of various materials and can be sized to fit your dog’s crate. If your dog will wear a vest or coat, there are great products out that will help keep your dog cool. These include cooling bandanas, cooling vests and cooling coats. Purchase a cheap temperature gage to start with. I keep a sticky thermometer on the rear window of my car by my dog’s crate, which reads the interior temperature. For the past few years, I’ve kept one attached to the door of her crate to log temperatures during some of our trips. What I found out is that it doesn’t matter how much gear you have, but how long you leave your car parked with your dog inside. So I have invested in a wireless digital thermometer. I can keep
watch on the temperature inside my car and make sure I’m back to my car before the temperature exceeds 80 degrees. For my small dog — who has a short coat — that temperature is comfortable. She can stretch out on a cool mat and maintain a normal body temperature. Don’t forget plenty of fresh water. If you use plastic water bowls, be sure you change the water every time you leave the house. Those plastic containers, when heated in a closed vehicle, can release plastic chemicals into the water. Not a good idea for keeping our buddies healthy. For those of us with experience in outdoor dog sports, we know our dog’s performance is affected by how they feel on any given day. If I am melting prior to running an agility course or traversing an outdoor nose work search area, then I’m not at my best. Our dogs deserve the same consideration, because we take them along, and they cannot choose to find their own cool resting place. You wouldn’t dare leave a young child in your car under warm-weather conditions. Don’t let your dog melt inside your hot car. You can search the Internet for some of the items I have found to be extremely helpful. Now go play outside. One last note: if you see a dog inside a hot car, call 911. Do not try to break a window to get the dog out. Leave that to law enforcement. Only they can legally break into a car. Laura Tyler is a certified professional dog trainer with more

responded to a fire on the bypass in Craig at 2101 Moffat County Road 183. Fire officials also responded to a fire at 487 County Road 18 South and a third fire on Highway 40 near mile marker 98. As firefighters tackled the three fires, a fourth fire sprung up at 616 Moffat County Road 31. Officials managed to contain a portion of the bypass fire that was threatening a nearby residence. The owners of the house as well as neighbors helped shovel dirt on the small flames. Larger flames spread across the hillside to the north of the residence. Firefighters continued to battle
these flames as gusts of wind caused scattered eruptions. The fire on County Road 31 began just a hundred feet from the Longwell residence. A large aflame woodpile constituted the majority of the fire. Investigator Gary Nichols was the first to respond to the scene. He saw the smoke as he was following a separate investigation and said that residents of the home were already tackling the fire when he arrived. “Individuals were spraying the fire with a water hose,” Nichols said.

Craig community leaders hosted a meeting Thursday at Moffat County High School to provide a brief update on the situation at Colowyo Coal Mine, answer questions and facilitate public comment on the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement’s environmental assessment. Ray Beck, Craig mayor, opened the gathering by telling the audience about the economic significance of Colowyo mine’s 220 jobs to Craig and Northwest Colorado. “This is not the time to slow down,” Beck said, emphasizing the importance of community feedback on the development of the mine’s new environmental assessment. When the OMSRE’s recommendation to approve mining plans for Colowyo’s South Taylor Pit was successfully challenged in federal court, the presiding judge determined that public comment was not adequately sought — this
time around Colowyo officials, Craig community leaders and OSMRE are trying to ensure sufficiency of the assessment’s public comment is uncontestable. “Look at this room and how many people showed up on very short notice to be a part of this,” said Christina Oxley, Craig Chamber of Commerce executive director to the approximately 100 people gathered in MCHS’ auditorium. “Any organization with an ounce of common sense would rethink attacking the industry and livelihoods of people who can and will band together to fight.” Oxley said the Chamber would host a series of informal community meetings where any interested individual can ask questions provide their comment to OMSRE.

State debates flouride in water Ivan Moreno
the Associated Press
DENVER
Colorado’s largest supplier of public drinking water is in the midst of a debate over how much fluoride — if any — to put into its delivery system after the federal government announced new standards in April. The discussion at Denver Water, which serves about one out of five of Colorado’s 5 million residents, comes as other utilities in the state and the country debate fluoridation. In some cases, fluoridation opponents are pressuring them to do so, claiming it damages teeth and bones. Two weeks ago, the mountain community of Snowmass Village, about 165 miles west of Denver, decided to stop water fluoridation, joining a handful of other Colorado municipalities
that have discontinued the practice in recent years. “The ultimate goal is to stop this absolutely insane process,” said Paul Commett, a retired chemistry professor and director of the New York-based Fluoride Action Network. About 200 places worldwide have stopped putting fluoride in drinking water since 2010, according to the group. The movement has caught the attention of Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper and his chief medical officer, Dr. Larry Wolk. They released a joint statement Wednesday, hours before the Denver Water Board met for public discussion. “More than 70 years of research has proven that community water fluoridation is a safe, effective and inexpensive method of improving the oral health of all Coloradans,” the statement said.
Denver Water plans to decide Aug. 26 what to do about adding fluoride to water, a practice it has maintained since 1953. Skepticism about fluoride has been around for years. Voters in Portland, Oregon, rejected a proposal to fluoridate water two years ago. In Sheridan, Wyoming, meanwhile, city officials this year decided to fluoridate water for first time since 1953 when a referendum stopped the practice. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in April lowered its recommended dosage of fluoride in drinking water. It was the first change in standards since 1962 when the federal government suggested up to 1.2 milligrams per liter in cooler climates and 0.7 milligrams in warmer areas where people consume more water. The new directive puts the dose at 0.7 milligrams everywhere.
No fire restrictions for Northwest Colorado Fires continued from 16 While the cause of the fire is still under investigation, Nichols said it appears to have been man-made. Five of the Longwell children were home alone while their parents were at work. James Longwell, 16, was burning rabbit hutches with a torch when he saw a piece of wood that had caught on fire. No animals or humans were hurt in the fire. “I grabbed it and put it outside,” James Longwell said. While the wood was not on fire when he left it, James said it may have still had live embers on it that caught flame. “I went back in the barn and a minute later there were flames outside,” he said. At that time, Mercy Longwell, 12, called 911 to report the fire. The flames were quickly extinguished, and investigator Nichols said there were no injuries and minimal property damages. Still, the Longwell children are a
bit worried about what their parents will say when they get home. “They probably won’t be very happy,” Nathan Longwell said. To report a fire, call 911 and provide your location, the location of the fire, landmarks, description of fire behavior, smoke color (white, black, etc.) and if the fire is threatening structures or other values. Fire danger is high in Rio Blanco and Moffat Counties and moderate in Grand, Jackson and Routt Counties, according to a press release from the Bureau of Land Management. Higher temperatures and dry conditions are forecast through next week. Vegetation at lower elevations continues to dry out as seasonal curing occurs. “Any winds that develop, particularly in the afternoon when temperatures are at their peak, will spread fire quickly in grass and brush,” Assistant Fire Management Officer Jim Michels said in a statement.
BLM officials advise the community to be extra cautious during the dry, hot weather. When using fire outdoors fire officials remind people to be aware of their surroundings, such as dry vegetation, and know what’s anticipated with weather situations like high winds, according to the press release. No fire restrictions are in effect in Northwest Colorado.

Defense, DA argue for life Lawyers make 1 more appeal for mercy for theater shooter Sadie Gurman

Defense lawyers for James Holmes made one more appeal for mercy Thursday, urging jurors to consider mental illness in his sentencing, even though they rejected his insanity claim when they convicted him of murdering 12 people and trying to kill 70 others at a Colorado movie theater. “It was not about notoriety, it was not about hatred. It was about the delusion,” attorney Tamara Brady said. “The stressors triggered his psychosis, the psychosis caused him to be delusional, and come up with this plan to shoot people in this theater,” she said. “No one has said that Mr. Holmes is malingering or faking or exag-
gerating psychiatric symptoms. He is indisputably mentally ill.” Brady said prosecutors tried to explain the “random and senseless crime” with a theory that Holmes methodically pursued a mission to kill. “But the mere senselessness of it shows that it was psychotic. There was no political statement or religious statement or statement of any kind about what happened in that theater,” she said. “He didn’t send anything to the New York Times or The Denver Post. He sent his notebook to his psychiatrist. It had nothing to do with notoriety.” District Attorney George Brauchler countered that Holmes wanted to increase his value by killing others. “Is mental illness going to be a shield here to protect someone who had the capacity to make decisions?” the prosecutor asked. “Nobody in their right mind could plan the massacre of a theater full of human beings. We should take comfort in that. But not having the right mind does not protect you from the ramifications of your decisions.” A woman interrupted the prosecutor, screaming “he’s wrong!” ‘’mental illness is real” and “don’t kill him, it’s not his fault!” She started climbing over seats toward the defense table before three deputies pulled her from the courtroom. Brauchler then returned to his argument, and the judge later told jurors to disregard the outburst. After they left to deliberate, the judge described her as a homeless woman who had behaved herself until then. Prosecutors asked that she be held in contempt. The defense said it would
James Holmes: Happy boy to mass killer CENTENNIAL
He flashed a toothy grin in his second grade photograph, but by the ninth grade, the smile was gone, replaced with an awkward smirk and a wild look in his eye. James Holmes, now 27, was by most accounts a happy, mild-mannered kid, but he was morphing into an odd loner, so quiet and detached it was easy to forget he was there. A fuller portrait of the Colorado movie theater shooter has emerged during his death penalty trial. Yet more than 12 weeks of testimony — most recently about his unremarkable suburban childhood and college years — have made it even more difficult to comprehend his descent from a wellbehaved child with a quirky sense of humor into a killer capable of gunning down defenseless strangers. Robert Holmes assumed his son had been hurt when he got an early morning phone call from a reporter telling him of the shooting at a crowded midnight movie premiere. “It never occurred to me that he would be the shooter,” the older Holmes said. “He was not a violent person. At least not until the event.” James Holmes’ defense said mental illness contorted him from a once-promising neuroscience graduate student into the deranged-looking man police arrested outside the blood-drenched theater where he killed 12 people in July 2012. A forensic psychiatrist who diagnosed him with schizoaffective disorder testified that Holmes suffered delusions that drove him to kill and said the massacre would not have happened if he weren’t severely mentally ill. — The Associated Press
be more humane to hospitalize her as mentally ill. The judge said he would decide later, and wasn’t concerned that jurors were influenced. Now each juror must decide if he or she sees reasons to override a potential death penalty and sentence Holmes to life without parole. They went home after deliberating for less than an hour, and will resume today.

A University of Cincinnati police officer who fatally shot a motorist during a traffic stop pleaded not guilty Thursday to a charge of murder and was ordered jailed on $1 million bail. Fired UC officer Ray Tensing later posted 10 percent of that amount and was released, the Hamilton County Court clerk’s website said. He was freed at about 6:30 p.m., county sheriff’s spokesman Mike Robison confirmed. People in the courtroom audience had erupted into cheers and clapped when Tensing’s bail was set at $1 million,

drawing the ire of Judge Megan Shanahan. “Ladies and gentlemen! This is a courtroom,” the judge said sharply. Tensing also pleaded not guilty to a charge of voluntary manslaughter in the July 19 shooting of Samuel DuBose, who was stopped for not having a front license plate. Defense attorney Stewart Mathews said there are two sides to the case and the officer’s much-viewed body camera video of the traffic stop can be interpreted differently from the prosecutor’s version. He described Tensing as “very depressed” and “in shock,” adding the officer felt “like he’s been run over by a train from the start of this case.”
Trump’s call for mass deportations messy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK
In one of his first forays into policy as a presidential candidate, Republican Donald Trump called for the deportation of all 11 million people estimated to be living in the country illegally while allowing the “really good people” to return. It’s a plan Trump offered with few specifics — and one complicated by the messy realities of the nation’s immigration system. Such an effort may be more difficult than Trump realizes because deporting so many people means finding them first. The government does not know the
identities of many of the millions of people who have come into the country illegally or remained after their legally issued visas expired. Locating immigrants who don’t have a legal immigration status has stymied officials for decades. Deporting them all “is impractical and is opposed by a large majority of Americans,” said Clint Bolick, an Arizona lawyer who co-authored a book on immigration policy with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, himself a GOP presidential candidate. During an interview Wednesday on CNN, Trump said the “good ones” could return via an “expedited” process and then remain in the country legally.

A barnacle-encrusted wing part that washed up on a remote Indian Ocean island could help solve one of aviation’s greatest mysteries, as investigators work to connect it to the Malaysia Airlines flight that vanished more than a year ago. The surprise discovery of the debris on a rocky beach stirred hopes and emotion among families of the missing, after a year and a half of grieving and frustration at a lack of answers, despite a wide, deep and expensive multinational search effort in the southern Indian Ocean, the China Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. Even if it is confirmed to be a long-awaited first clue to the disappearance of Flight 370, there’s no guarantee investigators can still find the plane’s recorders or other remains. French authorities moved the plane piece from the beach to the local airport on Reunion and will
send it next to the city of Toulouse, where it may arrive Saturday morning, according to the Paris prosecutor’s office. Toulouse is the hub of Europe’s aerospace industry, with the headquarters of Airbus and a network of hangars and plane facilities. The plane part will be analyzed in special defense facilities used for airplane testing and analysis, according to the Defense Ministry. Air safety investigators, including one from Boeing, have identified the component found on the French island of Reunion as a “flaperon” from the trailing edge of a Boeing 777 wing, a U.S. official said. The official wasn’t authorized to be publicly named. Flight 370, which disappeared March 8, 2014, with 239 people on board, is the only 777 known to be missing. The unsuccessful search for the plane has raised concerns worldwide about whether airliners should be required to transmit their locations continually via satellite, especially when flying long distances above the ocean.

Yogi spends time in Steamboat I
made a big mistake in Steamboat Springs this past weekend. I don’t mean overeating at the Creekside Cafe or overindulging at Strawberry Park — which, to be true, I did do (at least three times each). I didn’t get too close to the bears at Mad Creek or Kaliszewski the cougars at the Double D. Okay, I might’ve overdone it a bit at the Gondola happy hour, but the site of the sunset alone is enough to make you tipsy. And, to be fair, I must’ve done a few things right — I said as much to my old man KenK as we took in the scene from our balcony at the Grand. “We’re doin’ somethin’ right, huh?” I asked. “Sure are,” he replied. We clinked our cans. From the Movement Fest to all of the amazing people I met, my time in the ’Boat left me feeling full. In my experience, our offering of service is most sustainable when it starts within. If our wells aren’t full, how can we possibly effectively fill the cups of others? More times than I can count and in so many wonderful ways, my time in Steamboat invited me to slow down, look around and

draw in deep, nourishing, peaceful gulps from the source itself, so much so that my well feels overflowing; my spirit, glowing. I can’t thank you enough, Steamboat Springs, and everyone in this wonderful community, for taking the time to connect with me. Oh, the mistake I made? Wading out into the Yampa while Marco DiFerreira played the ukulele on the bank, as the tubers floated drunkenly by, I looked up into the sky and fell in love with this amazing place. The “Yampa Valley Curse” has taken hold of me. There’s a blessing embedded
in every curse, an opportunity present within any challenge. As I willed myself away, I felt my heart torn wide open — the blessing within the Yampa Valley Curse — a lifelong connection to this amazing place and its people. Every time I come up, it gets harder and harder to leave. One day, I pray, it will become impossible. Founder of Outlaw Yoga, Justin Kaliszewski is an avid yoga instructor and student who infuses creativity and perseverance into his teachings, along with a distinct blend of humor and wisdom that redefines what it means to be an Outlaw and a yogi.

Judge leaves Katy Perry’s bid to buy convent in limbo Anthony Mccartney THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES
Katy Perry’s dream of owning a hilltop convent near Hollywood is going to have a wait a while longer. The convent, which Perry has wanted to buy to be her personal residence for several years, is in the middle of a legal fight between a group of elderly nuns and the archbishop of Los
Angeles over who has control of the sale and its proceeds. Some of the nuns don’t want Perry to buy their former home and in June hastily sold the convent to a businesswoman with ambitions of turning it into a boutique hotel. Superior Court Judge James C. Chalfant said Thursday that he thinks the sale to entrepreneur Dana Hollister is invalid. Still, he blocked Perry and representatives of the archdiocese
from visiting the convent until after the court case is resolved. That could take months, if not years, the judge said. “You’re not selling to Katy Perry anytime soon,” the judge told lawyers for the archbishop. Archbishop Jose H. Gomez wants to sell the convent to Perry, but the sale cannot go forward because Hollister has already registered a deed for the property. The Roman villa-style convent sits on 8 acres in the Los
Feliz neighborhood. Perry’s involvement as well as infighting between the nuns and archbishop packed the courtroom Thursday with journalists, concerned residents, Hollister and two of the nuns. Chalfant’s mixed ruling requires Hollister to pay $25,000 per month to the nuns until a September hearing, when he will determine who should pay rent on the property while the court battle is waged.
Sand mandala reminds us to reflect on life
An attorney for Perry, who performed her hit “Roar” at this year’s Super Bowl halftime show, said the singer would pay rent on the property. With a pair of nuns watching in the audience, Chalfant said it appeared they had acted improperly when they sold the convent to Hollister in June. “There is no doubt in my mind sale to defendant Hollister was improper and invalid,” the judge said.

learning how to define it.” After a while, he learned his style is inspired by 1940s- to 1970s-era clothing, and his music is soul, also described by a fellow musician as a cross between Mumford and Maxwell. But when he was performing covers on the show, he stepped up to the challenge to make those songs his own by adding a new dimension. “I try to find a way to make these songs my own by finding something that I can relate to,” he said. “It’s about finding that timeless message or common thread to make it mine and something that I believe in, because when you do, you can pour yourself into it.” Many who watched David evolve through the course of the show said it’s an
experience to go to his live performance to watch and listen to him and his trio with their intricate three-part harmonies. “Hearing his music and seeing him live in person — just the way he handles himself on stage and draws you into his music — is awesome to watch,” said Ginny Rangitsch, a Steamboat local who is also a fan of David’s music. “His music is so soulful, and it hit me on so many levels and brought me back to those memories, because it’s one of those old styles I grew up with. There’s not a lot of that left anymore.” Tickets for the show are $12 and can be purchased online at chieftheater.com or at the Shoe Chalet and Boutique, next door to the Chief.

“Music from the heart, for the heart” is a motto Nicholas David lives by. Be it his appearance on NBC’s talent show, “The Voice,” live performances across the world or soul-infused albums, he knows how to strike a chord with audiences. On Saturday, the Nicholas David Trio will travel to Steamboat Springs for the first time in what is expected to be an intimate show at the Chief Theater. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., and the show follows at 8. “His voice has its own distinct sound,” said Ryan Fleming, a local fan who saw the 2012 season of “The Voice,” when David placed third. “He’s never trying to sing someone else’s version of a song; it’s from his heart, and he pours his heart and soul into the music.” The singer songwriter from Saint Paul, Minnesota, worked with CeeLo Green on the show, wowing audiences with his vocal flexibility and adding his own personality to covers ranging from Jimi Hendrix to Corrine Bailey Rae. Prior to his run on the show, he had five critically acclaimed albums which saw national radio airplay, and he was also a major supporter of charity projects and events such as “Make Hope,” his most recent EP. “A lot of this music is basically me processing the past few years and defining my outlook and perspective on life,” David said. “We are hoping to make music as a vehicle for change.” Incorporating multiple genres and influences, David’s approach to singing and songwriting has allowed him to go on this “Make Hope Tour,” but through it all, he still remembers his experience on “The Voice.” “One of the things that CeeLo Green told me was ‘just stay true to you,’ which is hard to do unless you’re CeeLo because look at him — who does he sound like?” David said. “No one sounds like him. But ultimately, he taught me to stay true to myself. The only thing that was hard was

New films ‘Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation’ Action PG-13, 131 minutes
With “Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation,” we’re getting the best Bond movie since “Casino Royale” in 2006. OK, so Ethan Hunt isn’t Bond, and the Impossible Missions Force isn’t MI6, but the “MI” films are essentially Bond movies, with a touch of “Bourne” and a whole lot of Tom Cruise doing what he does best — performing harrowing stunts, engaging in clever banter with his adversaries and doing it all with just the hint of a smirk that tells us even when it appears certain Mr. Hunt is facing imminent death, he’ll find a way to free himself from the clutches of the most dastardly, sneering villain. At times the deception and the intrigue and the twists and turns make it nearly impossible to follow every detail of the plot, but even when things get muddled, we know Ethan’s our hero.

‘Vacation’
Comedy, R, 99 minutes
Few comedy franchises in film history have a more bizarre saga than the “National Lampoon’s Vacation” series. Now we’re subjected to “Vacation,” with Ed Helms as Clark Griswold’s grown-up son, Rusty, and it’s a vile, odious disaster populated with unlikable, dopey characters bumbling through mean-spirited set pieces that rely heavily on slapstick fight scenes, scatological sight gags and serial vomiting. There’s a callback to the famous scene from the 1983 film where Clark leers at a beautiful blonde (Christie Brinkley) who zips by in a red convertible — but this time around the payoff is brutally unfunny. A stopover at Debbie’s college results in some really bad acting from actresses playing sorority girls, some cringeinducing reveals about Debbie’s past and a drinking-and-vomiting scene because we haven’t had enough of those.

1860s baseball card fetches $179K John Stewart off show Pre-Civil War Brooklyn Atlantis’ Archibald McMahon pictured Man leaves after 16 years of Daily Show Ula Ilnytzky
the Associated Press
NEW YORK
A circa 1860s Brooklyn Atlantics team baseball card that's been in the same family for more than 150 years has fetched more than $179,000 at auction. The pre-Civil War baseball card was owned by Florence
Sasso of Great Barrington, Massachusetts. It shows her great-great-uncle Archibald McMahon, an outfielder for the squad, pictured with eight of his teammates in bib-style shirts and two gentlemen in suits. Auction organizers said it was purchased by an anonymous collector from the West Coast. It had a presale esti-
mate of $50,000. The Atlantics were a founding member of the National Association of Base Ball Players — the sport's first organized league that held the championship from 1859 through 1861. The sale was among the highlights of a sports memorabilia auction held Thursday by Heritage Auctions in Chicago.
Safier: Human nature makes show timesless Goodnight Gracie continued from 30 based upon the numerous books about him, and the humor crosses generations. “It’s timeless, because it’s about human nature mostly, and that doesn’t change,” Safier said. “After talking with people after the show, I’ve found that there are a lot of teenagers and those in their 20s who didn’t know who Burns was, but became fans after seeing the play.” Illustrating the actor’s life through theater, the performance will traverse a range of emotions with sad and tender moments, but also joy and laughter. “I think that, if you get all of those emotions to come forth in an evening, you will have been successful,” Safier said. “Expect a gamut of emotions.”

After more than 16 years and nearly 2,600 telecasts, Jon Stewart can feel proud of his scads of Emmys and his pair of Peabody Awards, his cultural gravitas (he hung with the Prez, both on and off the air), even his reprobate status at Fox News. Who could blame him for wanting to depart “The Daily Show” on this high note? Besides, maybe it had gotten too easy. By June, when Donald Trump jumped into the presidential race, a giddy Stewart framed this jest-alluring candidacy as Trump’s going-away gift to him, “putting me in some sort of comedy hospice where all I’m getting is straight morphine.” Or maybe it had gotten too hard. When he took over “The Daily Show” in January 1999, Stewart’s simple mission was to host a program that would lampoon “real” newscasts and newsmakers they enabled. “I like keeping up with the news,” he said at the time, “even though I think it’s gotten so out of control. But that’s what I like about ‘The Daily Show’: It’s like checks and balances.” But in an interview a few months ago, Stewart put a bit more dismally the task of
finding the funny in the news. “I think of us as turd miners,” he said. “I put on my helmet, I go and mine turds. Hopefully I don’t get turd lung disease.” A famous definition of news: “What those in power don’t want you to know.” Meanwhile, the illuminative mockery of Stewart’s “fake news” might be defined as “What those in power don’t want you to think.” Always questioning authority — whether politicians, corporate titans, media barons or, of course, puffed-up journalists — Stewart did what satirists have done for centuries: He seized on the absurdity embedded in accepted truth. But as “The Daily Show” aped the bombast and blizzard of graphics employed, without irony, by “legitimate” newscasts, Stewart never copped to grandiose claims for what he was up to. “Our meeting every morning is an explicit discussion of what’s going on in the world,” he declared in a 2004 interview with The Associated Press. “But then the rest of the day is spent trying to hide that under layers of fart jokes.” While Stewart is undeniably left-leaning, his show, he said, “doesn’t honor the distinction between left wing and right wing, or liberal and conservative, or in some respects between Democrat and Republican.

Back in 2009, a friend of mine pointed to a spot on a map, just on the north side of Big Agnes and Mt. Zirkel, that was supposedly a hidden gem. It would take a little bushwhacking and navigation to get to, but I was told this was one of the best areas the Zirkel Wilderness has to offer. Johnson That summer, I took my first solo backpacking trip to that spot with little direction other than, follow the river over the pass and camp near the lake. I made it there after a beautiful, sunny hike. It seemed like a fairy tale, with jagged peaks, crystal clear lakes and not a soul in sight. A spot like this was what I had dreamed about when I moved to Colorado. The trip left a lasting impression and has

I convinced them merely by giving the same description I was given six years ago. Our adventure started out with sun on our shoulders and an easy first leg to our journey. We hiked a crowded trail with people enjoying a beautiful July day and headed to Mica, or Gilpin Lake. After a few miles, we split from the crowds, into the unknown for a bushwhack to our destination. My backpacking mates gave me inquisitive looks, searching for answers as to where we were going. “We head that way and try to follow the river until it splits off,” I said. My vague direction didn’t instill a ton of confidence in them, but off we went. Through See Zirkel, page 34

As the green saddle came into view, I was relieved. I knew in the back of my mind we were headed in the right direction, but I had my doubts as our hike went on. I had hinted on our way that we might run into snow on the hike, especially on the north-facing slope after the saddle, but I didn’t tell them the final mile of our hike would be down multiple, steep snow fields. In reality, I didn’t really know what would be there. Last time, it was full of snow in July, but conditions change, right? Tired, and now with soaked shoes, we slid down. With vague information and a storm quickly forming overhead, my companion’s spirits were low. Then — finally — our majestic destination came into view, and all was forgiven. We walked into our camp with pure joy. We all agreed that the hike was worth it to be in a place that remained untraveled and serene in its own beauty. At camp the lingering sunlight seemed to never fade away. The Alpine glow gave a spectacular show, lighting up the peaks just above us and making the distant fields and forest sloping up mountains a color of green that can’t be described. The stars at night gave their own performance, and we stared into never-ending universe, contemplating our place in the world. The next day, we woke to the sound of a thunderous storm. The goal of the trip, at least for me, was to reach the lake just on the other side of a ridge toward the base of Big Agnes. I once again told my friends to trust me as we had to hike up and over a steep ridge to gain access to an unnamed lake. The hike in and out pushed us a little past our comfort zone, but the lake and the surrounding cirque transported us to a magical place. It didn’t seem possible, but here it was, right in our own backyard. Pictures wouldn’t do it justice. Colorado is filled with other places that have a magical feeling to them. Sometimes, you are informed by some magazine article as to the best places to go. Those places are great, but the real magic is in finding a place that remains off the beaten path, where it’s you and the outdoor world, living in your own fairy tale, even if just for a day.

Not new story, but strong Bock’s Office continued from 37 suburbs, Margo is the subject of many a school legend for her usually unexplainable exploits, all while simply not caring how she’s perceived. You don’t want to follow her just because it advances the plot — there is a need to figure her out. Austin Abrams and Justice Smith do well as Ben and Radar, the lifelong buddies of Quentin — known to them as Q — the former a hapless seeker of a date to prom and the latter in a rich relationship despite a refusal to introduce his girlfriend (Jaz Sinclair) to his parents, owners of a houseful of niche yuletide collectibles. And you thought your folks were weird. When a road trip becomes inevitable in the search for Margo, joining this crew is Halston Sage as Lacey, the missing girl’s ex-best friend and one of the victims of her late night farewell. It makes us wonder how tenuous female friendships are if one half of a pair of gal pals wants to get away from someone so badly with no explanation. The title of John Green’s novel refers to a cartographic tactic of putting non-existent loca-
tions on a map for copyright purposes — a term our absentee heroine employs as a nihilistic assessment of the overall fakery of the world, or at least her city of Orlando. A little harsh, but we’ll allow it. Like last summer’s “The Fault in Our Stars” — also based on a Green book — this coming-ofage tale is perceptive in capturing the mindset of young adults. In this instance, the subject goes less deep, since it doesn’t approach something like mortality, but still keeps a solid narrative of kids breaking free of the constraints they’ve mostly set upon themselves in their own heads. It’s not a new story by any means, particularly once this group hits the highway, but it’s one of the better entries in the genre of teens finding their identity, perhaps stronger because the romantic angle is present without being the entire focus. You may feel the need to look up the explanation of the namesake of “Paper Towns,” but the characters within aren’t so easily defined, and that’s what makes it an above-average watch. And, for those who still have “Fault in Our Stars” fever, know that a certain cameo will cure what ails you.

It’s not the most important event of the year, and it may not even be the most important event of the summer. There’s still something special about being a “national champion,” and that’s what will drive the top U.S. Nordic combined and special jumping athletes Saturday in Park City, Like us on Utah. Facebook “It’s the nationand follow Steamboatpilot al championships, on Twitter. so everyone wants to win,” U.S. Ski Team member Taylor Fletcher said. “I’m hoping to get my first title.” Whoever wins on the Nordic combined side will be in for a rare honor. Bryan Fletcher, Taylor’s older brother, is actually the only active Nordic combined athlete with a national championship. He won last year when the event was contested in October in Lake Placid, New York. The Fletcher brothers — Olympians born and raised in Steamboat Springs before moving to Park City to train — expect a similar story to unfold as they chase a championship. Bryan, 29, has had a strong summer of training on the jump and is confident going into that element of the competition. Taylor, meanwhile, has been one of the fastest skiers on the World Cup circuit for the past two seasons. Those results have been on snow, but, no surprise, he’s pretty quick on a pair of roller skis, as well. “I think I can hold him off,” Bryan said with a laugh. “He’s skiing extremely fast, and he’s definitely a threat.

un beaming, river gleaming, stillness resounds. Far from the pandemonium of daily life lies a river, one that holds anticipation, excitement and tranquility. Wading into the rushing water, feeling the coolness breeze past with my fly rod in hand, was something I had never experienced. To stand as witness to the grandeur of a river with its unexpected revelations was something I’d only read or heard about. It’s a vantage point fly fishermen and women live for, and last Friday, I had the incredible opportunity to go fly fishing with local guide Andy Radzavich, of Brooklyn Outfitters.

changed my outlook on the sport and culture of fly fishing tremendously.
Step by step Fly fishing, I quickly learned, is “simply complicated,” a term Radzavich used often, but something I didn’t understand until I started casting. In fly casting, timing, not strength, is everything. The weight and flexibility of the

line carries the fly to the fish, and a good cast will have the correct stroking and stopping of the fly rod. After 20 minutes learning the basics, it was time to choose our fly, gear up and go “crushin’ fish” — another catchy term used by Radzavich I was soon to discover the meaning of. “There are thousands of different aquatic flies that trout feed on that are active at different times of the year,” Radzavich explained.
We tested a hopper dropper fly early, then a dry fly nymph, a combination of two flies that resembled a stonefly under a grasshopper. “The goal is to figure out which insect that is and to mimic it with the fly,” Radzavich said. See Fishing, page 42

with disbelief, it took me a few minutes to wrap my head around it all.
Life lessons on river Although this was my only catch of the day — Radzavich caught one later in the afternoon — I was more encouraged than discouraged. I realized fly fishing requires an immense amount of patience and finesse. It’s a progression that cannot be taught on a first trip, or even in one year, but is instead acquired during a lifetime. “I’ve been doing this my whole life, and am still learning new things,” Radzavich

said. “There is certainly an art to it. It constantly renews itself.” Acquiring new techniques or creating new flies is a major component of fly fishing, but so is experiencing those subtle nuances of life, finding solitude within peaceful rhythm of the cast and hearing the water rush past. Now, I’ve got trout fever and can’t wait to get back out on the water to release my next cast.

While I was trying my best not to slip on a rock and fall into the water, Radzavich explained how to read the water and recognize areas laden with fish, such as the outside bend of a river, rock and boulder pockets and merging currents. After a while, I became comfortable with the false casting and casting to a point at which it became rhythmic and natural. Then, I felt a fish bite. “Set! Set! Set!” Radzavich said, hopeful I had caught my first fish. “Point the rod in the air, keep the line taunt. Woohoo! You got one!” And there was my first fish, a rainbow trout … a very small rainbow trout. As he caught the fish in the net, we removed the hook and took a look. I had never seen or touched a fish, and there it was, with its scales glimmering in the sunlight; my adrenaline pumping, and grinning

It will be cool.” The U.S. Championships have become a summer staple, moved out of the winter to avoid that season’s busy schedule. This weekend they’ll coincide with the Springer Tournee at Utah Olympic Park, a skijumping event in its 17th year. In addition to Nordic combined championships, it’s championships for special jumping, and it’s a unique training opportunity for new athletes and old. It makes for a big weekend of Nordic events for athletes from Utah, Steamboat Springs and all across the country. “With the Springer Tournee, it’s a great chance for the

Sure, it’s competitive, and racers want to win. But this weekend’s 14th annual Steamboat Scowboys Regatta at Steamboat Lake is mostly about having fun. “It’s just a little annual gathering up here,” event co-organizer and sailor Harv Holtzman said. “Usually we try and do it so we can get some old friends from Missouri out here. We go out and visit them, and they have the same type of boat … basically, we are just doing a social thing that involves sail boat racing.” The races take place from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday and again from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, with the Steamboat Lake Marina serving as race host and sponsor. The times are wind and weather permitting, with up to four races expected for Saturday and two for Sunday. The event is free, and spectators are welcome. “Steamboat Lake is awesome,” Holtzman said. “With families and stuff, we are usually between 25 and 50 people for get-togethers. It’s a combination of camping out and cabins. So a lot of gathering around campfires.” The regatta usually attracts between five and 15 boats each

year. The boat used by all racers is a 16-foot, one-design MC Scow. The small, flat-bottomed boats are built to be operated by one or two people and are among the most popular scows for sport sailors. “There are marks set up in the water,” Holtzman said. “You kind of race between the marks and around the marks. Depending on different wind conditions, it determines your tactics.” While the majority of the participants come from Colorado, with a good number from Routt County, the regatta has seen people come from all across the country, including New York.
Scowboys Regatta What: 14th annual Steamboat Scowboys sailing regatta Where: Steamboat Lake Marina When: 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday. All times are wind and weather permitting. Cost: Free, although park fees may be required to use certain campsites.
Holtzman said good views of the race can be had near the two fishing areas, located just past the marina entrance on Routt County Road 62. Another good spectator spot is located near Fetcher Barn on the lakeshore along Routt County Road 129.

Squad wins 2 in World Series Steamboat Springs
They didn’t have to pack any trophy in their luggage for the trip home, but coach Jim Hansen said Steamboat’s U12 baseball team got everything it wanted from a week in Park City at the Triple Crown World Series. Playing last week, the squad won two games and went 2-4, capping a long season of baseball. “Our goal was to win two games, and we succeeded in reaching our goal,” Hansen said. “We could have easily won one or two more.” The team won once in pool play and then again after being
seeded in a double-elimination tournament. Winning at all is a step up for the squad, officially the Northwest Colorado Storm, after it didn’t win any games at the World Series a year ago. “The takeaway is that we belonged on the field against some of the best teams in the country,” Hansen said. “This town’s never seen that before, where we’ve got young kids playing at that level. It really was a team effort. Everyone stepped up.” Next up for the squad? Nothing, and that’s OK with the players and coaches. Hansen said the team started its season in March and played more than 50 games

this summer. It finished second in the Triple Crown Mountain Magic tournament in June in Steamboat Springs, earning the trip to the World Series, and there, it met its goals. “We are excited for next year,” Hansen said, “but we’re ready for a baseball break.” To reach Joel Reichenberger, call 970-871-4253, email jreichenberger@SteamboatToday.com or follow him on Twitter @JReich9
Cardinals win on Garcia’s walk, 9-8 ST. LOUIS
Matt Carpenter returned to his comfort zone Thursday. Carpenter hit a pair of home runs and Greg Garcia’s basesloaded walk capped a three-run rally in the ninth inning as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Colorado Rockies, 9-8. Carpenter went 4 for 5 with four RBIs after moving back to the leadoff spot. It was his first career multihomer game and he has a career-high 12 home runs this season. “I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t comfortable there,” Carpenter said. “It’s not to say that I can’t hit in other positions. Today might have bought myself a couple of more games there.” Carpenter is hitting .370 (34 for 92) with six homers and 17 RBIs in the leadoff position. He hit .225 (56 for 249) with six homers and 33 RBIs in the 2-hole. “Leadoff spot fit him well today,” manager Mike Matheny said. “What a great day. Even the out he made was hit on the screws. That just shows if you stay with it, it’s going to come around. That was just a great display of everything we saw in the first part of the season.” Jhonny Peralta’s two-run single off Rockies closer John Axford tied the game at 8-all and Garcia’s walk scored Kolten Wong as the Cardinals recorded their seventh walk-off win of the season. Axford (3-5) took his third loss in his last four outings. “We knew Axford had been going through a rough patch,” Carpenter said. “We just wanted to get the tying run to the plate and see what happened.” Cardinals starter Carlos Martinez gave up five runs on 10 hits in five innings. Carlos Villanueva
(4-3) earned the win. The Cardinals snapped a twogame skid and improved to a major league-best 38-15 at home. The Rockies are 3-15 at Busch Stadium since 2010 and haven’t won in St. Louis since May 12, 2013. The Cardinals ended a 22-inning scoreless streak when Wong’s groundout scored Carpenter in the first. Carpenter’s 423foot homer to dead center in the second gave the Cardinals a 4-1 lead and his solo shot in the fifth tied it at 5. Nick Hundley’s 442-foot home run to left in the sixth tied the game at 6. The Rockies capitalized on a pair of throwing errors by Kevin Siegrist to snap that tie with two runs in the eighth. Nolan Arenado drove in his major league-leading 78th run in the first. “We battled really well offensively,” Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. “We did in Chicago too the last series. I think we’ve linked together a lot of good atbats, we did it again tonight.” Rockies starter Chris Rusin erased one of his mistakes to Carpenter by hitting his first major league home run to tie the game in the fourth. Rusin, who gave up six runs in five innings, became the third opposing pitcher to go deep against Cardinals pitching this season.
Trainer’s room Rockies: Left fielder Corey Dickerson left the game with a right rib contusion after diving while trying to catch Jason Heyward’s triple in the fifth. His status is day-to-day. Cardinals: Matt Holliday was placed on the 15-day disabled list after suffering a Grade 2 strain of his right quad during Wednes-
day’s game against the Reds. It is the same injury that sidelined Holliday for 31 games earlier this season.
Tempers flare Things got heated after Martinez hit DJ LeMahieu with a pitch to load the bases in the fifth. LeMahieu had words for Martinez while being escorted to first by Yadier Molina. After being stranded at third when the inning ended, Arenado then exchanged words with Molina.
