CHEERS | To Pitkin County for trying to educate people about what is — and what is not —recyclable locally. Now it’s up to us to follow the rules. We have faith. JEERS | To the Oscars and what is always an evening of good television. And cheers to the nominees and winners for bringing us quality filmmaking and acting in a world filled with far too much visual and virtual junk.
CHEERS & JEERS | To the town of Basalt and the recent police-chief debacle. Cheers for finally dropping the court battle and allowing the public to see a report about the professional conduct of former Chief Roderick O’Connor. But jeers for allowing the matter to become mired down in bureacracy and secrecy, and even more jeers for what seems to be an internal mess that was a longtime coming.

At last! 100 percent of area ski terrain open
All of the regular terrain at Aspen Skiing Co.’s four ski areas was finally open for the first time this season Feb. 18 when Snowmass received nine inches of snow and added the trails Baby Ruth 2, West 1 and 2, and Adios Bowl and Upper Ladder to the mix, the company reported. Snowmass has all 3,362 acres open, including the 230 acres that was added on Burnt Mountain, according to spokesman Jeff Hanle. The other three ski areas hit the 100 percent open mark slightly earlier in the year, Hanle said. Aspen Highlands reported 1,028 acres open on Monday, while Buttermilk/ Tiehack has 470 acres. Aspen Mountain reports 675
acres open, but there are additional shots, steeps and gullies that boost the amount even higher. Those trails aren’t included in the skiable acreage figure because they can’t regularly be opened, Hanle said. So, in a strict sense, Aspen Mountain is more than 100 percent open. – Staff report A s p en / S now m ass
Another Journey for Jazz Aspen
If the lineup for the Labor Day Festival has a distinctly different feel this year, then Jazz Aspen Snowmass hit the bulls-eye.

Stay in the know – Catch up on recent news & local events of them new to Jazz Aspen, but virtually all of them will be making their valley debuts. “One of the biggest things we hear is, people want to see bands they haven’t seen before,” Jim Horowitz, Jazz Aspen’s president and founder, said. “That was a goal, absolutely. At the beginning of each year, we start with: Who can we get who hasn’t been here before?” While the musicians might be making their first appearances in the Aspen area, they are hardly unknowns. Headliners for the Labor Day Festival are Journey, the rock band formed in 1973; Keith Urban, the 45-year-old New Zealand-born country singer who was a judge last season on “American Idol”; and singer-songwriter Jason Mraz, whose latest album, “Love Is a Four Letter Word,” reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart.
“If it’s a tough water year, you’ve got to be creative.”

Also scheduled to perform at the Labor Day Festival, set for Aug. 30 to Sept. 1 in Snowmass Village’s Town Park, are San Francisco pop-rock band Train; the Denver alternative rock band Churchill; and the country group Little Big Town, which earned a Grammy Award last week for the song “Pontoon.” All of the aforementioned acts will be making their area debuts. Also on the bill are roots-rockers Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, who have performed in Aspen and Snowmass Village. One additional mainstage act is still to be announced. Among the headliners for the June Festival is singer-songwriter Jackson Browne, who will be making his Aspen debut. Two additional headliners have yet to be announced for the June Festival, set for June 21-23 at the Benedict Music Tent. – Stewart Oksenhorn

with JOHN COLSON
Concealed guns on campus? Who thought this one up? Why is it that a small minority of gun-toting advocates feel the need to warp our laws and our morals to the point where everybody, everywhere, can carry a gun hidden in a shoulder holster or an ankle holster or in a pocket as they go about the business of their days? Why on earth, for instance, would any sane person argue that students and teachers should be permitted to carry concealed weapons on campus? It’s happening, and it has been happening now for years. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, in 2011 there were 18 attempts by state legislators to enact laws that called for concealed-carry weapons to be allowed on college campuses. Only two were passed, in Mississippi and Wisconsin. In 2012, the conference reports on its website (www.ncsl.org/issues) 16 such bills were introduced, and as of a report in August, only two of those were still pending. All the others had failed. Now, I attended the University of Wisconsin in Madison, and I can tell you that the idea of a student seated next to me in a monstrous lecture hall filled with perhaps 1,000 impressionable young minds with a gun in his pocket is a scary prospect indeed. For one thing, students of college age are not exactly well-balanced individuals. Most have just left home for the first time and find themselves utterly free of parental restraint (except, of course, for the umbilical cord of financial support). The result is that they dive deep into the ocean of flesh, booze and fun that faces them. I know because I was one of them, and my memories of those times are fond ones. But I also know that students are an impulsive, quick-to-anger lot. Having a gun close to hand would be a temptation I’d rather they not face because the results could too easily be tragic. But students should be able to defend themselves from being shot by a madman intent on killing as many and as quickly as possible, the gunson-campus advocates cry. Right. Such arguments echo other, equally nutty concepts, such as the “mutually assured destruction� doctrine that lies behind the international arms race.
There is an organization, Students for Concealed Carry, pushing for guns on campus, according to the New York Times. One member of this group, David Burnett, is a nursing student at the University of Kentucky, Lexington, and the only time he doesn’t have his gun (a .45 caliber Glock) is when he is in class because guns are prohibited there. He points to the slaughter at Virginia Tech in 2007 and appears to actually believe that if students had been carrying guns on the day that a crazed student killed 33 people, things might have been different. Personally, I don’t buy it. If students had pulled out their weapons and fired back, the greatest likelihood is that they would have shot each other and missed the madman, who ultimately killed himself. I have to wonder how things might have been different back in 1970 when National Guardsmen killed four students while trying to quell a campus protest against the War in Vietnam. If the kids had been packing heat and fired back, the result would have been mass carnage on a scale we can scarcely imagine. Certain misled people and groups seem to believe that possession of a gun in public imparts both wisdom and good aim in a firefight situation, both of which are highly questionable assumptions. If you watch films of people in a crowd where gunfire is breaking out, most simply duck and run — the most sensible reaction — while others scream and cower in corners and behind flimsy barriers. These people are in a panic, and the idea that they would suddenly become calm defenders of the public, if only they had a gun, is simply laughable. Soldiers are trained to shoot back when shot at, and so are cops. And we’ve seen too many examples where those instincts went horribly wrong and innocent bystanders were killed. Think of the death toll when untrained, panicky civilians start pulling out pistols and spraying bullets in every direction. Next, think hard about why anyone would want this to become more of a possibility.

Harper’s Weekly published this scene of the Maroon Creek trestle using technology and artists The Aspen Times could not afford.
Technology and the Times the new Aspen Times office will not likely include a photographer’s darkroom. The paper has come full circle; there wasn’t one when the paper was founded, either. Scanning a century of Times editions provides a historical journey through newspaper technology. the aspen times’ first issue, in 1881, employed typical technology of the day. Each page, and there were only a few, was created with handset type. A weekly production schedule gave its founders, E.O. Connell and G. Lavelle, time to write, set the type and run off copies on a press that had been hauled over Independence Pass. Aspen’s most enterprising businessman, B. Clark Wheeler, took over in 1885, adding “editor” to his varied and storied occupations. Using the same slow and labor-intensive methods, he began publishing the paper daily. The challenge of a daily paper was not as daunting as it may seem because much of the paper was composed of constants. The masthead, ads that were all text, section titles and even headings such as “Silver Prices” needed only minor tweaks for production; only the news stories required daily

typesetting. Specialists created printing blocks and sent them to the Times for national/state ads. The paper added locally crafted artwork to advertise for Aspen’s businesses. The local prints were small and primitive, and
and world news filled sections of all papers. Newspapers competed to print the best-told stories first and then encountered a technological leap. Two papers with better national and international news, Harper’s
Using the same slow and labor-intensive methods, he began publishing the paper daily. they often produced smudged copies. The Times endured local competition with, at times, two additional dailies vying for readers.

Weekly and Frank Leslie’s Illustrated, featured illustrations almost as lifelike as modern photographs. Nearly half of the page was covered with block prints carefully carved with lines so close and narrow you almost needed a magnifying glass to view their intricacy. Offering pictures worth a thousand words, as did Life magazine and
Look a century later, the illustrated papers appealed to a broader audience. Readers who only scanned the illustrations and headlines came away with an accurate impression of the state of the world. Some of America’s most notable illustrators contributed to Harper’s and Frank Leslie’s. Cartoonist Thomas Nast introduced images of Santa Claus, the Republican elephant and the Democratic donkey on the pages of Harper’s. Winslow Homer began his career drawing for the newspapers. The Aspen Times had to rely on the local talent pool and could not afford to pay staff to create complicated print blocks, even if only once a week. The final insult followed: Harper’s and Frank Leslie’s produced feature pieces about Aspen, complete with magnificent illustrations. While the beautiful and realistic artwork was often created from photographs, especially during the Civil War, it wasn’t until 1897 that newspapers printed photographs. Photographs in Aspen’s papers appeared decades later. I wonder what B. Clark Wheeler would think of today’s digital photography and color newspapers. What would he think of easily accessing a digital paper from anywhere in the world seconds after it is posted? Tim Willoughby’s family story parallels Aspen’s. He began sharing folklore while teaching for Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Mountain College. Now a tourist in his native town, he views it with historical perspective.

“The masquerade ball given by the Aspen Union Athletic club last night was a success far beyond the expectations of those who had the entertainment in hand,” declared the Aspen Tribune on Feb. 15, 1900. “About 150 couples were present, many of whom were costumed in glittering, gaudy, grotesque or artistic dress. All sorts of representations were in evidence and not a few were decidedly clever. Princes, pages, flower girls, fairies, knights of the court of King George, milk maids and numerous other characters were represented by the shapely young ladies and dignified young men of society. A more jolly or successful party has not been given in Aspen for many a day.”

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS
by GUNILLA ASHER
NEED TO KNOW 1½ ounces Bulleit Bourbon ½ ounce Smith & Cross Rum ½ ounce Lustau Pedro Ximenez Sherry 1 spoonful Leopold Fernet Muddle 8 mint leaves with the sherry, and then add the rest of the ingrediens and crushed ice. Swizzle, top with more crushed ice, and garnish with 3 mint springs and powdered sugar.
Fresh Powder Mint Juleps aren’t just for Derby Day, at least not in the eyes of bartender Jim Meehan, of the Chefs Club at the St. Regis Aspen. Meehan proves it with his ski-town version of this classic cocktail, where the mint-inflected Fernet is a perfect addition to this sherry-sweetened Julep — and a garnish of powdered sugar brings it all home for après-ski. Gunilla Asher is the general manager of The Aspen Times. She writes about libations without any real training other than in the spirit of “She is not a connoisseur, but she is heavily practiced.”

WINEINK
words to DRINK by
by KELLY J. HAYES
A Worthy Inductee Who are the most important people in the wine industry? You could argue that they are the winemakers who craft the vintages. Perhaps the marketers or the bankers who sell the wines and fund the operations. Maybe they’re the consumers, those who buy the wines. But none of them would be able to pursue their role in the wine chain were it not for the efforts of the laborers, the field hands, the planters and the growers. And in California, the overwhelming majority Kelly J. of these hired hands Hayes are migrant workers of Mexican descent. This week the Vintners Hall of Fame, an adjunct of the Culinary Institute of America’s Napa Valley campus, inducted its seventh class of enshrinees. The most compelling member of the class is Cesar Chavez, an American-born farm worker who became one of the most significant labor leaders of our time. Chavez was instrumental in changing not just the California wine industry but also the lives of thousands of migrant workers. To this day, changes that were made in the 1960s and ’70s in response to the nonviolent protests that Chavez led have had an impact on how workers and the wine industry interact. The inclusion of Chavez in the VHOF is not just a nod to the role that he played in the organization of workers but an acknowledgement of the important part that these workers play in the industry. As Chavez was a leader of a movement, he also became a symbol of those who worked in the
fields and vineyards in California, toiling tirelessly for minimal wages in deplorable conditions. Born in Yuma, Ariz., in the late 1920s, Chavez became aware of inequality as a child when his family lost a patch of land during the Depression. The family followed the seasons in California, working the harvests. By Chavez’s count, he attended 38 schools before they finally settled in Delano, Calif., the heart of the table-grape industry in America. After a stint in the Navy, Chavez returned to California, where, inspired by the nonviolent tactics espoused by activists like Mahatma Gandhi, he became a community organizer working with farm workers who were harvesting table grapes and lettuce in California’s fertile fields. He first became a national symbol of a movement in 1968 when then-Democratic presidential candidate Robert Kennedy traveled to Delano to break bread with Chavez following Chavez’s 25-day fast in protest of labor conditions. In 1975, Chavez led a march of members of his United Farm Workers Union from San Francisco to Modesto, Calif., and the headquarters of America’s most profitable wine concern, E & J Gallo Winery. By the time the group completed its 110mile walk, 15,000 people had joined them. The march led then-Gov. Jerry Brown to propose, and the California Legislature to pass, the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act, one of the most significant pieces of
KJ’s Suggestion legislation of its kind. While far from ideal, things have changed dramatically for seasonal laborers in the wine industry. In Napa Valley, vineyard owners are assessed a fee per acre of land that goes into a fund to provide shelter for migrant workers. The funds support three dormitory facilities in the heart of the valley where more than 150 daily laborers share two-toa-room facilities. But perhaps even more dramatic have been the changes in perception and the relationship between farm workers and those who employ them. Today, as illustrated by the inclusion of Chavez in the VHOF, there is both recognition and appreciation among the wine community for the accomplishments and contributions of the workers who till, toil and pick. While it is a business and owners will forever try to keep labor costs to a minimum, there is a greater understanding of the need to maintain simple human decency as a key component of the workplace in the vineyards. Chavez is celebrated each year on March 31, his birthday, with official state holidays in California, Texas and Colorado, and there is a continued call to make the day a national holiday. In 1994, President Bill Clinton awarded Chavez posthumously (he died in 1993) with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian award. California has honored him with a spot in the state Hall of Fame.
One of my favorite Napa wineries is Ceja Vineyards, located in the Carneros region of Napa Valley. The Cejas are the descendents of Mexican farm workers who originally came to pick grapes in Napa under the brasero work programs in the early 1960s.
Ceja 2010 Carneros Chardonnay This wine took a gold medal at the San Francisco Wine Competition. Bright flavors, acidic, this Chardonnay is a treasure of the region.
Ironically, with his induction into the VHOF, Chavez will join Ernest and Julio Gallo, whom he feuded with and protested against, in the barrel room in the Culinary Institute in bronze relief. This is a bold statement on the part of the CIA’s Vintners Hall of Fame, and it demonstrates the kind of courage that legitimizes its mission. Congratulations to both the Chavez family and the VHOF. As Cesar would say sí se puede, “Yes, it can be done.” Kelly J. Hayes lives in the soonto-be-designated appellation of Old Snowmass with his wife, Linda, and a black Lab named Vino.

FOOD matters
Chip Shot Honest Chips bring a new flavor to artisanal chips I have a weakness for smallbatch, artisanal food products, especially if they are locally made. One of my favorite discoveries from 2012 is a potato chip operation from Crested Butte called Honest Chips. CEO Megan Reamer began cooking potato chips in coconut oil several years ago when her son, Jackson, began grappling with Amiee white health issues and she beazley found that foods high in “good” fats helped his condition. Her chips are not a business, she says, but a part of “a movement to re-introduce healthy fats into the food supply.” > When and why did you start Honest Chips? We started selling potato chips cooked in coconut oil in August 2012 after about five years of making them for ourselves and our friends and family for picnics, dinner parties and such. We chose coconut oil because we only use “traditional” fats in our home cooking: lard, tallow, palm oil and coconut oil. We did this because these oils turned out to be an essential component of our disabled son’s diet that helped his digestion and his neurological condition. We kept hearing from our friends and family members that they tasted so good, so unique, that we should try to sell them. To be honest, we never really took that idea seriously because we didn’t have the time to pursue
it and we weren’t confident that we could possibly break into a $9 billion per year business dominated by global brand names like Lay’s. By late 2010 we started giving it some real thought, trying to figure out what we’d actually have to do from a supply, production and distribution standpoint. So in 2011 we contracted with some farmers who are friends of ours in Paonia and Hotchkiss to produce a few varieties of potatoes for us for the summer of 2012. So when those potatoes started coming out of the ground in August last year, we started frying them up, bagging them, and selling them at two local health food stores. It was a moment of truth since we really had no expectations whatsoever about whether anyone but us would like them or care that they were made in coconut oil, which was our chip’s real differentiation. > What has the reception of the product been like since then? As it turned out, the demand has been pretty spectacular, which is to say, almost more than we could handle. Because we were cleaning, slicing, frying and salting every single potato chip by hand, we couldn’t produce many bags at a time. We ended up having to work nights and weekends for the first few weeks as we struggled to find a rhythm to meet demand, both from our two local stores as well as the farmer’s markets in Crested Butte, Telluride and Basalt. In September
we started selling the chips online; we wanted to see if someone outside the Crested Butte-Aspen-Paonia triangle might like coconut oil potato chips. Apparently they do. We’ve sold thousands of bags of our potato chips so far to hundreds of consumers and more than a dozen health food stores in 44 states and eight countries (including United Arab Emirates, Australia and Switzerland). We’re still in a bit of shock that there is such a demand for potato chips cooked in coconut oil, especially internationally. After all, I’d be willing to bet that 90 percent of the world’s population is no more than a half a mile from a bag of potato chips they can buy. It’s the most popular snack food in the world. That folks are willing to buy these online and have them shipped halfway around the world is encouraging to say the least. And even more heartening really is the overwhelmingly positive response we’ve had to why we started this company in the first place: to highlight the role that nourishing traditional fats played in helping our family deal with my son Jackson’s ongoing health crisis, and to bring those fats to market in snacks. > What makes your product special? Two things really. First, we fry our potato chips in coconut oil and, as far as we can tell, no other potato chip company takes this expensive and difficult step. The result is a healthy potato chip that tastes better than any potato chip available today. Secondly,
we started this company to optimize our mission, not our profits. That mission: to spread the word that traditional fats like coconut oil are an important and healthy part of a balanced diet and to introduce those fats back into the food supply. So it’s a unique, great tasting product with an honest mission run by a family, not a corporation. > what are the benefits of coconut oil and why do you use this ingredient? Well, first and foremost coconut oil has been around and been consumed by humans for thousands of years. In fact, it’s a staple food for many tropical cultures: the milk, the flesh, the oil, and even the husk fibers are used in thousands of ways. It is a foundational part of the economy and the culture of many equatorial societies. The same is not true for polyunsaturated vegetable oils like canola, safflower, sunflower, corn or soybean oils. It was only after the steam engine became efficient enough around the turn of the 19th century that quantities of these vegetable oils became widely available and widely consumed. The reality is that although humans have been consuming “traditional” oils like lard, tallow and coconut oil for thousands of years, we’ve really only been eating industrially manufactured polyunsaturated vegetable oils for a bit more than a 100 years.

particular so unique relative to polyunsaturated vegetable oils is that it’s incredibly stable under heat — largely due to the fact that it’s 93 percent saturated. When you eat the flesh of a fresh coconut you are eating coconut oil that’s in precisely the same molecular form as the oil we use when we fry potatoes in them. The same cannot be said of polyunsaturated vegetable oils that are industrially manufactured. Vegetable oils — because they are massively unsaturated — actually break down rapidly under high heat and pressure. The industrial manufacturing process of turning sunflower seeds into sunflower oil involves tremendous heat and pressure, to say nothing about chemicals (like hexane) that are used to bleach and deodorize the oil. These industrial manufacturing steps create oils that look — chemically — nothing like the oil you would find naturally in a sunflower seed if you were to eat a handful of them while watching a baseball game. Indeed, the vegetable oil industrial manufacturing process creates a large amount of free radicals and other difficult-to-digest by fat byproducts. Among foodies, these types of industrially manufactured contribute d photo
vegetable oils are called “Frankenfats” because they have undergone a massive chemical and physical transformation from their original form. The reason we eliminated these vegetable oils from our diet was because our 11-year-old son Jackson came down with some sort of immuno-neurological disease that we still don’t have a name for. What we found was that when we eliminated these polyunsaturated vegetable oils from his diet and substituted large amounts of “traditional” oils like coconut oil to his diet, his neurological condition improved significantly. At the time we didn’t have a sense of precisely why this was happening (we have a much better sense of why these types of oils affect him biologically), but we didn’t care: it worked so we kept on doing it. So we started using coconut oil (and raw butter and lard, etc.) to cook things in our house. Over the years, we came to realize that every single potato chip on supermarket shelves was made with one of the big three industrially manufactured vegetable oils: canola, safflower or sunflower oil. So we did what anyone would have done: If we couldn’t buy chips fried in coconut oil, we’d have to
make them ourselves. Because we have three other younger kids who love chips, we started making coconut oil potato chips with regularity. It was only after doing a lot of research about lipid chemistry that we realized all the reasons why traditional fats like coconut oil, butter and lard are better for human consumption (and for our son Jackson) than vegetable oils. It’s a remarkable complex chemistry involving terms like saturation, medium chain triglycerides and Lauric acid, but the sum of all that chemistry is that industrially manufactured polyunsaturated vegetable oils are generally a novel, denatured “Franken-food” that has unappreciated health risks associated with their overconsumption. Highly saturated fats that are processed with traditional low heat/low pressure methods represent not only an essential part of the human diet (and have for millennia) but they also taste really good.
thus far. Once we have those larger bags, we’ll be attempting to get into some grocery stores in Colorado like Whole Foods Market and expand to some more independent health food stores throughout the state. We’ve also developed some flavors over the last few months that we’re really proud of because they are so unique; if all goes well with finding new stores to sell our chips, those new flavors will be available in the spring. After that, if we are very lucky, we’d love to have the opportunity to bring healthy oils to other snack foods, and we’ve got our eye on a few different products outside of potato chips if we’re fortunate enough. We are definitely taking one step at a time though; the demand has been wonderful and our son Jackson’s story has touched so many lives that it really is an honor and a privilege to be doing all this.
> What are the company’s future plans? In the next month we’ll be introducing a larger (5 ounce) bag of potato chips, which will be a big step for us since we’ve only sold smaller snack-sized bags in limited quantities

VOYAGES
DESTINATION | canada

Summer in Wonderful Whistler
Comparisons to Aspen are elusive. The mountains are festooned with blue-green glaciers. The air is humid and mild. The forests are primal and impossibly tall. On a summer visit to Whistler, the Coastal Mountains of British Columbia unfolded with wonder. In Aspen, Whistler-Blackcomb is mostly known for skiing since it usually ranks among the top ski resorts in North America. The snow depths are something to marvel at as revealed by directional signs at the top of the resort that stand 30 feet off bare ground. Gazing up at them gives you an idea of how much snow accumulates from wet Pacific storms. I visited Whistler at the invitation of the Whistler Forum for Leadership and Dialogue – a kind of sister program to the Aspen Institute, though on a smaller scale. The “Wild Spirit” five-day seminar I ran with William Roberts, president of the Forum, would take place in the forests and mountains in and around Garibaldi National Park. Participants would delve into nature and the native Squamish culture. My co-moderator was Chief Ian Campbell, tribal head of the Coast Salish people. From Vancouver, gaping at the views along the Sea-to-Sky Highway, I saw ragged peaks jutting above timbered ridges and felt my pulse quicken at the thought of getting closer to them. At sea-level the fjordlike Strait of Georgia stood placid and reflective. All highway signs were written both in English and in Squamish, though I learned later that this is an oral language. That lesson came at the start of the seminar at the Brew Creek Lodge, a

few miles south of Whistler. When I opened the seminar with the first reading – Thoreau’s essay “Walking” – Chief Campbell announced that he had done none of the readings as a way of honoring his oral culture. I shifted gears accordingly and let the program evolve. The result was a nice balance of oral and written material. We spent two days at the lodge discussing Thoreau, Muir, Leopold and others. Afternoons were spent hiking through the rain forest of the Callahan Valley and visiting the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Center as Chief Campbell described his cultural union with nature. The third morning we drove to Whistler, slung on backpacks and rode the tram up to Blackcomb Rendezvous Lodge from where a sea of glacial peaks extended in all directions. We hiked three miles back on the ridge to a beautiful basin and set up tents around gem-like Turn Lake. All around us were high peaks and glaciers. Without hesitation I dropped my pack, wrapped a jacket around me, and headed up one of the ridges. I had to see a glacier up close, and I wasn’t disappointed with my proximity to ice and snow in August. Massive peaks jutted up as far as the eye could see in a primal landscape of mountains being formed by the crushing weight of ice. This view recalled the Pleistocene Epoch, and it didn’t take much to imagine thousands of feet of ice covering the entire region as had been the case during the last ice age 10,000 years ago. That night we gathered around a huge flat boulder and took turns reading poetry from our seminar notebooks. Dinner was a pre-made
Fe b r u ar y 2 1 - 27 , 20 1 2
curry dish we had packed in from an Indian restaurant in Whistler. A brilliant show of stars completed the perfection of the night as we silently communed with the Wild Spirit of nature. The next morning, Chief Campbell led only the heartiest of us in a ceremonial bathing in icy Turn Lake. We packed up and hiked back to Blackcomb, where we boarded the Peak-2-Peak Gondola, a cavernous aerial capsule that crosses a deep canyon to Whistler Mountain Roundhouse. After lunch and our final seminar discussion, we boarded another tram and cabled back to the valley floor where a pro mountain bike race was in progress. The village was festooned with banners, crowded with spectators and pumping techno music. Whistler in summer is a bustling alpine village with a mountain buzz, a strong native legacy and an international culture at the edge of the Pacific Rim. A winter visit is now on my bucket list. Paul Andersen is a freelance writer, book author and regular columnist for The Aspen Times. His latest book, “Moonlight Over Pearl,” is a collection of short stories about Aspen.

But if you wear a fur coat, you’ll look like Kelsey Grammer, and they’ll laugh us back to Beaver Creek.” Like everyone else living outside Pitkin County, I’d always sensed a certain peculiarity with Aspen’s relationship with its famous visitors: They come to town to pretend that nobody notices they’re here, and you largely oblige them, though you are indeed fully aware of their presence. So what’s it actually like to roll around with the weight of a Grammy winner and her entourage, insufferable dog in tow and weird concierge requests played to the hilt? Not so bad, it turns out. Those folks with the private jets bigger than the American Airlines commuter do get very special treatment, but according to the community’s

highest-ranking celebrity handlers, they mostly tend to be pretty nice about it in return. With a few glaring exceptions.
Inside information
Sadly unable to convince anyone to loan us some time in their Gulfstream G650, we’d opted for the next-best tool to connote immediate presence: a new BMW M6 Coupe, one of the fastest, most wildly distinctive, rear-wheel-drive subsupercars on the market. With 560 twin-turbocharged horsepower and a paint job (the notat-all exotic Sakhir Orange Metallic) that allows the car to be seen from space, I braved the Interstate 70
passes with ultra-high-performance summer tires to make our entrance, avoiding incarceration and very much enjoying the non-frozen portions of the trip. At the Jerome, still vitally fresh from its 4 1/2-month, Todd-Avery Lenahan/Rowland + Broughton high-luxe makeover, the M6 seemed to have found an appropriate home, and we were quickly surrounded by the cowboy-hat-wearing staff, eager to help us in any way we desired. This, we discovered, might be the biggest secret to those living the big life: You will always receive morethan-enthusiastic service. Your every wish will be catered to. At times, you will require a lacrosse stick to keep the bellmen and room cleaners and

Fred water Deluxe filtered water from the world-famous aquifers of … Santa Monica, Calif.? Hipster water. Probably the favorite of Jennifer Aniston. $21 a liter online. Good we did not drink it, after all. www.fredspot.com.

front-desk attendants from providing you with too much help. However, if you are like two of the Jerome’s most recent, high-profile guests (Christina Aguilera and Alanis Morissette), your entourage will help keep you safely isolated from too much public contact as you settle into one of the hotel’s three, refurbished executive suites. Somehow, in the flurry of intense courtesy and the bellman’s instructions on how to operate the in-room cappuccino maker and the iPad that serves as your electronic concierge connection (a nice touch, indeed), our bags did indeed temporarily disappear. So we contemplated our own junior suite’s celebrity-friendly larder — “everything is complimentary except the Fred-brand bottled water in the fridge,” we were told, our interest now piqued in that exclusive and dangerous Fred water — and settled around the suspiciously mirror-topped coffee table while the bags were rediscovered. Then the cheese plate arrived. I was hoping for

Cristal, as well, but they were on to us already. “This is not bad at all,” my friend noted. Critical to the complete satisfaction of guests with their own reality series, and even those without, veteran Jerome concierge James Cryer said he prides himself on providing just as much service as the hotel’s now-even-more-high-end clientele desires — noting that Daryl Hannah had been in the hotel’s very attractive new Living Room bar the night before. “With higher rates comes a certain expectation of service, and we’re working very hard to maintain that,” he noted. “We’re getting more recognizable celebrities, but they mostly want to be treated like everyone else.” Cryer, who grew up in Los Angeles and says he attended junior high with Paris Hilton (“She likes to cause the scene — and she’s more of a Little Nell kind of client”), also deals with the typical routine of catering to celebrity diets. And as for the
Fe b r u ar y 2 1 - 27 , 20 1 2
over-the-top requests? “It’s never anything like asking for a cheetah in their room,” he said dryly. “But I did spend almost five hours one time doing the legwork for a client who wanted to land a helicopter in our courtyard so he could go on a raft trip on the Upper Arkansas. I was going to call in a high-altitude-capable helicopter from Grand Junction, and I got a permit to land it on the Rio Grande field – and then I told the client the exorbitant price that all would cost. And he decided to pass on that.” Cryer says his biggest coup is being able to land his highflying guests the off-peak dinner reservations they often desire, which for some reason always seem to be in the restaurant dead zone of 7:30 p.m. Cache Cache, Matsuhisa and Pinions always top the list, be it stars such as Bill Murray, Cheech Marin or Mick Jagger – all of whom are pretty cool in person, he said.
“That’s the witching hour, and sometimes even the general manager won’t call you back with a request like that,” Cryer said. “So sometimes I have to drop the name, mention that this person is going to come in and they should anticipate a higher bill, and they can put them in a high-visibility location if they want. That’s where being a long-term concierge comes in.”
A home for high-rollers
True enough, things are indeed a bit different at the Little Nell, the more well-established nexus for high-roller visits. On a tour of the 1,900-squarefoot Little Nell suite, retailing for about $5,000 per night and situated literally spitting distance from the
J - B ar an d S pa P hotos by J ason Dewey ; g uest room photo by d avi d marlow
BMW’s menacing M6 Coupe gondola, I began to understand the appeal of the hotel to those Alist clients. You’ve heard the stories of the days when the sparring Trump clan decamped there, The Donald taking one side of the joint and Ivana settling into her own set of suites; turns out that’s all true. Katriona Hembury, the Little Nell’s pleasant and very British guest-relations manager, explained that the hotel’s long-established position as go-to spot for celeb visits has drawn the occasional paparazzo to the lobby – but in the hotel’s efficient approach, they’re asked to check their camera equipment or to kindly vacate the premises. “Our guests are paying for that privacy, and we do everything to honor their requests,” Hembury said. “We want our staff to be aware of who they are, but we also don’t want them to be asking for autographs, either. You can come here, be yourself, and we won’t shout about it.” In her eyes, the Little Nell’s guests understand what they’re getting themselves into. Otherwise, they’ll cross the street and end up in the pool at 39 Below. “Most recently, it’s been a lot of high-end international businessmen from Australia and Brazil,” Hembury said. “We also had a group of Ukrainian diplomats who did not want to tell us who they were or
what they were doing.” And what about the tales of celebrities behaving badly? Hembury said that, like Cryer’s clients, people are, for the most part, low-key and pleasant, but occasional problems do arise. “I would say that my experiences with that caliber of guests have been 99 percent positive, but there’s just that 1 percent that ruins things. In our eyes, spitting on staff members or destroying rooms is not acceptable,” she added. For the majority who do exhibit good behavior, the Little Nell is more than happy to cater to requests ranging from private shopping trips (“They’ll sit outside Fendi while their staff goes inside and picks stuff out,” Hemburg said.) to arrangements to head off to Silverton for heli-skiing, plus the typical desires for first tracks with private ski instructors. (I had hoped for a bit of dirt on how the Aspen Skiing Co. caters its on-mountain offerings to the occasional celebrity skier or snowboarder request, but they graciously declined to discuss their policies.) Tour complete, my friend and I settled into Campari and sodas and yet another local artisan cheese plate at the Nell’s Element 47 and theorized what it was going to take to pull off this lifestyle. “You’re going to have to write ‘Marley and Me,’” my friend said. “Or maybe some young-adult book with werewolves. Otherwise, we’re out of luck.”

We are not sure why the German carmakers are so enamored with the sleek rooflines of 1970s American cars, but it seems to be the inspiration for a whole new generation of two- and four-door luxury import coupes, of which the new M6 is a very striking example. Built with the same mind-bending, physics-defying mechanics as the four-door M5, the automobile’s adjustable steering, suspension and throttle response allow the 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 to hit 60 MPH in just over four seconds. A ride to an electronically limited 155 feels like you’ve ignited solid-fuel booster rockets – upgrade to the $8,700 carbon-ceramic brakes, and stops will be just as breathtaking. But it’s that long and slick body design that’s the M6’s most compelling feature, though the oversized doors and low seating position do practically call out for valet parking versus tight garage spots. An avalanche of real carbon-fiber trim (including the entire roof) plus many hides’ worth of hand-stitched Merino leather help create a cockpit-styled experience. Winter usage is plausible, provided you seek out the right rubber and take a conservative approach to the throttle. www.bmwusa.com/standard/content/vehicles/2013/m/m6coupe/default.aspx

The heart of arts season Arts and cultural offerings abound in winter
Singer-songwriter Brett Dennen will perform a free outdoors show in March at Snowmass Base Village. Dennen also contributed to the John Denver tribute album “The Music Is You,” due for release in April.
the days are getting longer. The snowpack is getting (ever so slightly) deeper, and the surface is softer. The lifts are running later. But the season isn’t getting any longer, so naturally you’re feeling the squeeze to get in your ski runs while the gettin’s good. And while you’re putting in extra time on the slopes, don’t neglect the off-mountain activities. There’s a whole lot of culture to fit in before Aspen shuts down for the spring offseason.
Laughs: Despite the rumors, and the apparent ongoing efforts, the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival isn’t coming back to Aspen, at least not this year. While we wait and hope, the Wheeler Opera House’s Aspen Laff Festival (Feb. 21 through 23) does an admirable job of ensuring we are not deprived of the best medicine (and pointing out the humorous side of Aspen’s altitude and shortage of black people). The third annual festival closes with the return of Christopher Titus, whose stand-up show, “Neverlution,” was a throwback to the U.S. Comedy Arts Fest years. Leading up to Titus are Colin Quinn, Bobby Slayton, Jake Johanssen and panel shows on elective surgery and Congress and lady parts.

landscape of alcohol, dysfunction and the agonies of the Tyrone family of Connecticut with a staging of “Long Day’s Journey Into Night,” O’Neil’s autobiographical, Pulitzer Prize-winning drama. The production opens Feb. 22, with dates through March 9 at Carbondale’s Thunder River Theatre. Flashback: Want to be taken back to the era of classic rock? Or prog-rock, soft-rock? ZOSO promises “the ultimate Led Zeppelin experience” (Feb. 24, Belly Up). English prog-rock pioneers YES, with three original members, play three of their classic albums in their entirety in their Aspen debut, a rare club appearance (March 12, Belly Up). Another group of U.K. origin, America, brings its soft-rock songs (“Ventura Highway,” “Sister Golden Hair”) to town (March 15, Belly Up).

Beatles fans have two chances to twist and shout: Doctor Robert, from Crested Butte, plays a free après-ski set Feb. 24 at Ajax Tavern, while Beatlemania now is featured in a benefit for the Aspen Camp for the Deaf (March 9). Document: “Under African Skies” (Feb. 27, Wheeler) is an examination of the politics behind Paul Simon’s 1985 album “Graceland,” which earned criticism for Simon’s apparent breach of the boycott of South Africa. On a more exhilarating note, the film brings back to life the music of “Graceland,” sounding as brilliant as ever.
Read: Karen Russell’s “Swamplandia!” tells of the Bigtrees, a family of island-dwelling Florida alligator wrestlers, adapting to changing times. It was a finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for fiction. Russell speaks with fellow novelist Elissa Schappell on March 4 in an Aspen Writers’ Foundation Winter Words event at Paepcke Auditorium. Discover: Making their local debuts: Big Easy funk group the New
Drink: The tradition of the end-ofski-day beer gets elevated with a new event, the Après-Ski Cocktail Festival (March 14 through 17, Snowmass Village). Cocktail gal Kim Haasarud, who has written recipe books on mojitos, margaritas and more, along with other drink experts, leads sippers on a tour of gins, cognacs and singlemalt scotches. Also on the menu are fondues, pre-ski fruit smoothies and warm beverages, including hot chocolate that is not necessarily for kids.
Jazzed: The buzz is big on Pedrito Martinez (March 29 and 30, JAS Café), a Cuban-born percussionist and singer whose regular shows at a New York nightclub have drawn raves. The buzz also is growing on Jazz Aspen’s series of jazz shows at the Little Nell.
Do good: Vital, a nonprofit group founded by part-time Aspenite Yvonne Neuman, is launching its local presence with a concert (March 2, Wheeler) by Ádám György, a Hungarian pianist who has made multiple appearances at Carnegie Hall.
Rock out: Put the name Robert Earl Keen (March 30, PAC3, Carbondale) on a marquee in this valley, and watch the fans line up for a night of rowdy, Texas-style folk-rock. The 57-year-old singer-songwriter isn’t coasting; his last album, 2011’s “Ready for Confetti,” is on a par with older classics like “Gringo Honeymoon.”
Kids stuff: Aspen High School takes on the musical “In the Heights” (March 8 through 10, Aspen District Theatre), an affectionate look at a Dominican-American neighborhood in New York City. The 2008 production took several Tony Awards, including for best musical.

Spring fling: Brett Dennen, the California redhead with a superior batch of songs and an endearingly goofy stage presence, launches springtime in the Rockies with a free outdoor show (March 22, Snowmass Base Village). Flick: Former University of Colorado film student Derek Cianfrance announced himself with 2010’s edgy “Blue Valentine.” He returns with “The Place Beyond the Pines” (released nationally March 29), a hit at the Telluride Film Festival. The film reunites Cianfrance with “Blue Valentine’s” Ryan Gosling, who plays a motorcycle stunt rider on a collision course with the law. Co-stars include Bradley Cooper and Eva Mendes.
Play Dead: Deadheads have two reasons to bust out the tie-dye. The Mickey Hart Band, led by the former Grateful Dead drummer, plays an upto-date brand of fusion/funk (March 2). Dark Star Orchestra has done its ultra-faithful re-creation of Dead shows past numerous times in the area, but its next appearance here is a nice twist — an all-acoustic show in a theater setting (March 29, Wheeler).
Classical music: Conrad Tao (March 16, Wheeler) first came to Aspen as a 10-year-old violin student. How things have changed. Tao has switched to piano, added composing to his pursuits and is all grown up (19, actually). And he’s become a classical-music star: His compositions have been commissioned by the Hong Kong Philharmonic and Dallas Symphony, Forbes included him in its list of “30 Under 30” young people making an impact on the world, and he was featured in last summer’s seasonopening Aspen Music Festival concert. This recital has Tao playing Chopin, Prokofiev, Meredith Monk and Tao’s own “vestiges.”
Pick: Icons from different ends of the acoustic spectrum — the traditionalist Del McCoury and the envelope-pushing Sam Bush — team up as a duo (March 21, Wheeler).
Comedian Bobby Slayton will perform Feb. 22 in the Wheeler Opera House’s Aspen Laff Festival.
Orleans Suspects (March 6, PAC3, Carbondale); Hammond B3 organist Tony Monaco (March 15 and 16, JAS Café Downstairs@the Nell); Andy Grammer (March 27, Wheeler); Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith’s side project, Bombastic Meatbats (March 30, Belly Up); experimental rockers Minus the Bear (April 3, Belly Up); hard rockers Great White (April 5, PAC3); and ’90s hitmakers Soul Asylum (April 12).
Leap in: The Aspen Santa Fe Ballet company, already heralded around the world, might just be hitting its stride. It makes its debut in Russia, the motherland of classical dance, next week. Last week, it gave performances in its Aspen hometown that had audiences searching for superlatives. It repeats that program (March 16, Aspen District Theatre) in an evening that might have even more emotional resonance: Sam Chittenden, a company star for 15 years, takes his final bow from the ASFB.
Download: John Denver might not have been the epitome of cool while he was alive. But 16 years after his death, his cool factor is about to get a boost. The tribute album “The Music Is You” (April 2 release date) lines up 16 artists with plenty of hip cred: Lucinda Williams, Brett Dennen, Train, Dave Matthews. The album opens with My Morning Jacket doing a stirring version of “Leaving on a Jet Plane” and closes with Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros’ trippy take on “Wooden Indian.”

BOOK REVIEW
NOTEWORTHY
Gone Girl Meet Nick Dunne, a former magazine writer whose job has fallen victim to the rise of the Internet. He has a big problem. It’s his fifth wedding anniversary and his wife, Amy, has disappeared. Their marriage has been somewhat turbulent since they left New York for his hometown on the Mississippi River, and it’s no secret that Amy has had trouble finding her place in the provincial setting. Now she’s gone, and it looks like he may have had something to do with her disappearance. Meet Amy Dunne. She loves Nick desperately. But despite her best efforts to be the perfect wife, something is lacking in their once torrid relationship, something she is trying desperately to regain. At least

that’s what she’s written in her diary. As if her life hasn’t already been a big enough challenge trying to live up to an alter-ego named Amazing Amy, the main character of her parents’ best-selling children’s books. Meet the Elliots, Amy’s parents. The perfect married couple, they arrive on the scene to help in the search for their only child. They believe in Nick. After all, he has been a good husband to Amy. Or has he? Where was he the day Amy disappeared? Who cleaned up blood on the kitchen floor? And why does Nick have a second cell phone? Gillian Flynn writes with delicious prose as she draws us into the psychological thriller, incorporating

I don’t know what she’ll choose to write about next, but I’m already afraid.
