“A DELIGHTFUL WEDDING,” acclaimed the Aspen Daily Times on June 26, 1903. As the paper noted, “a quiet little wedding was celebrated yesterday afternoon at 3 o’clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Lumsden of this city. The contracting parties were Mr. Samuel Wayman and Miss Gussie Youngberg, both of this city. Rev. E.N. Edgerton officiated.

A number of beautiful wedding presents were bestowed upon the happy couple by their friends here and outside the city as well. Only the immediate and intimate friends of the bride and groom were in attendance. After the conclusion of the ceremony, a delicious wedding luncheon was served by Mrs. Lumsden in honor of the newly married pair. The two who have been made one left on the Denver & Rio Grande last evening for their wedding journey which will be to several cities on the Western Slope. They will return in the course of a week or so and will make their home in Aspen. Both parties are well known in Aspen and need no recommendation to commend them to the community. Mr. Wayman is a stalwart gentleman of recognized merit and deserving of such a wife as Miss Youngberg will make him. The Times extends congratulations and best wishes.” The photo above shows an Aspen home decorated for newlyweds.

GEAR of the WEEK

by STPEHEN REGENOLD

USE IT: FRENCH SURVIVAL KNIFE

GET IT

OPINEL MADE ITS FIRST KNIFE in 1890, and since that date the French company has produced untold millions of its iconic woodhandle blades. This year, the classic look gives ways to a knife designed for survival.

The Opinel No. 12 Explore, new this month, has a whistle, fire-starter and a hook-blade built-in.

These features blend seamlessly into a 6-inch handle that houses the main folding blade.

At $49, the No. 12 Explore is a solid value. Its survival features are reasonable add-ons, and the system to hold them in place is unique.

Like most Opinel blades, the Explore model employs a stainless steel called 12C27 Sandvik. It will not rust and is known as a workhorse metal that holds a razor edge.

It came out of the box medium-sharp — not fine enough to shave arm hairs and in need of some work with a stone. Its blade deployed, the knife is large — a 10-inch piece in the hand ready to get to work.

At first, Opinel knives appear to be nonlocking. But a ring on top of the handle spins, moving into place to keep the blade secured and locked, open or closed.

The company made this knife for backpackers, hunters, fishermen and survival-minded individuals. It can perform for a variety of tasks in the outdoors, though serious knife junkies may prefer a sturdier locking mechanism or a non-folding blade.

Opinel’s design uses its built-in fire-starter as a pin to hold a hook-blade at the butt of the handle. It slides out of the handle a few millimeters and clicks in place when needed in the field.

Pull the pin all the way out and you have a ferrocerium rod capable of producing 5,000-degree sparks. I scrapped it against the

S e pte m b e r 15 - S e pte m b e r 2 1, 20 16

back of the blade to shoot tiny balls of fire, igniting kindling into a smoldering mass.

The whistle is in the handle, and Opinel cites a 110-decibel max output. That can serve as a strong signal if you’re injured or lost.

The handle is reinforced fiberglass. A rubbery material inlayed with topographical line details gives grip. It feels solid in the hand, hiding the fact that the tools are built-in.

The ferro rod, whistle and hook don’t detract from the utility, and they may come in handy in a pinch. Overall, Opinel has built a sturdy, streamlined product with its No. 12 Explore.

At $49, the price is fair, and the features all performed in my test. Look to this blade if you’re a backpacker or hunter searching for an affordable upgrade to the common straight-edge.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

A rare sight: Hanging Lake with no visitors — the perfect dowvnalley offseason adventure.

THAT TIME OF YEAR

WHY OFFSEASON IS A TIME TO CELEBRATE IN A TOWN that is always on during the season, some time off is necessary for a full recovery.

It’s here to remind us that there’s more to life than schmoozing, partying and working (not much more, but certainly a couple of things).

For Aspenites, our time off is known as offseason, and it always arrives at the absolute necessary BARBARA time. When you’re PLATTS tired of taking the extra couple laps around the block in search of a parking spot. When you’re fed up with having to line up as far back as the fire station if you want something to eat or drink at Peach’s Cafe. It arrives when you’re fairly certain you cannot possibly deal with one more tourist snapping a photo in the middle of the street.

This time of year, when town empties and many of us are still here working, I like to write a column that highlights some of the wonderful things about offseason.

Perhaps this is mostly to help me, and that you, as the readers, just find it repetitive and annoying.

PHOTO BY WILL GRANDBOIS

If that’s the case, then try not to worry. This column only happens twice a year, and I will be on to another fancy by next week.

But, in the mean time, here are the top four must dos this offseason, at least this time around (written in no particular order).

GO PAST THE ROUNDABOUT I’ve written it before, and I’ll write it again — offseason is a great time to check out all that the downvalley towns have to offer. Several of the farmer’s markets are open until the end of September to early October. Plus, most restaurants and businesses remain open during the quiet months. Check out what’s on tap at the Roaring Fork Brewery in Carbondale. Do some antiquing in stores in Glenwood Springs. Hell, even spend some time at Target or Wal-Mart. After a nonstop summer in Aspen, that’s sure to give you some culture shock.

TAKE UP A NEW OR NEGLECTED SPORT The temperatures are still tolerable, and the ground is not yet iced. Try to spend some time

in the next couple of months picking up a new form of exercise or revisiting an old one. For me, I spent most of the summer running and hiking; paying little attention to my beautiful mountain bike I invested in a couple of years ago.

This offseason, I plan to shift gears and take to the wheels. Not only is it a fun time, it’s a great way to get in skiing condition.

BECOME A REGULAR AT A NEW BAR It may sound silly to some, but sometimes it’s nice to go to place where everybody knows your name. And (you guessed it) they’re always glad you came. My first offseason here, back in 2012, I was really able to solidify a friend group and get to know Aspen in a more intimate way, and that was through socializing at restaurants and bars when there was no one else around except locals. Sure, many of the restaurants are closed during the offseason, but your staples tend to remain open for a majority of the quiet weeks.

to some, but there are plenty of benefits to reap. For me, during the season, I barely have time to read even what I need to for work.

But in offseason, when we have a chance to breath, I can finally make a dent in that stack of books next to my bed that I’ve been wanting to open for months. Without fail, I will mosey on over to Explore Booksellers (which is open all offseason) and buy three to eight books to add to my bedside pile. It’s a never-ending cycle, but it’s one I enjoy immensely.

From now until Thanksgiving, we get a breather from the busy crowds, outlandish tourists and a hectic schedule of events.

Take advantage of the break and embrace this fall offseason with open arms.

Enjoy!

Barbara Platts is ready for offseason deals, endless parking choices and doing a whole lot of nothing.

WINEINK

THE SOMM

ONE OF THE COOL JOBS “CAN I SUGGEST a glass of our Austrian Grüner Veltliner with that?” said the well dressed, friendly and very confident young woman as she handed me a wine list, “It is crisp, clean and has just just enough acidity to rock that lobster salad.”

I had been thinking about maybe a buttery glass of California chardonnay KELLY J. or perhaps a savory HAYES Sancerre to pair with my lobster lunch that day, but the sommelier’s suggestion was intriguing enough to make me change my mind.

After all, who would know better than the sommelier herself which wines paired best with her chef ’s courses?

Such is the power of the sommelier, a profession that has blown up over the past 20 years or so. There was a time when sommeliers, the wine guy or gal in a restaurant, were almost always stodgy and overbearing.

They could be found only in the most expensive restaurants wearing what appeared to be a spittoon around their necks.

Actually that silver-plated device was a “tastevin,” a relic from an older day that was once used for tasting wine in dusty cellars.

But that was then, and it is now a new day for those who pour wine. Today’s generation of “Somms”, as they are now so casually called, are usually the hippest people in the room.

Nattily attired, knowledgeable, cheerful and friendly, they are the kind of folks that make you want to order, not just a glass, but a whole bottle of wine. And that is exactly the point. With markups on wine coming in at two to two and half times the wholesale price of a bottle, wine sales are amongst the most profitable part of restaurant sales. Even casual restaurants now have extensive wine lists and smart young somms to help guide customers through them.

12

A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY

F

How this all came about is kind of chicken and egg.

As consumers become more sophisticated about food they began looking for new and more sophisticated wine experiences and pairings. Simultaneously, chefs, servers and waiters also became more interested in exploring the great wide world of wine. Organizations like the Court of Master Sommeliers and sommelier contests popped up to provide structure for those who wanted to take the next step.

Then in 2013, San Franciscobased director Jason Wise made a film called “Somm” that followed a group of young men in their quest to become Master Sommeliers.

There was a sequel, and the film morphed into a television show, and, as we all know, if it’s on TV it must be significant.

Today there are more sommeliers than ever on these shores and even entry-level somms have been exposed to more wines from more regions than ever before. Those who have chosen a path of pouring wines and consulting with collectors as their careers and lifestyles are as well versed in the world of wine as any group who have ever come before.

Of course, there is much more to being a sommelier than simply making a suggestion and serving a bottle of wine.

Today’s top somms are the CEO’s of their restaurant’s wine programs.

They are responsible for making buying decisions for their cellars and wine lists that result in profits, not losses.

They need to work with their chefs to insure that their buying decisions also work with the food. They must train a staff and conduct regular tastings to make sure that everyone knows the wines they are recommending.

A wine program also is about maintaining the wines in good condition, so somms have to be cognizant about the condition and temperature of their cellars or storage areas. And the

S e pte m b e r 15 - S e pte m b e r 2 1, 20 16

stemware, the various glasses that are part of any reputable wine program must be cleaned properly and stocked accordingly.

It ain’t easy being a somm in 2000’s.

But it can be profitable. Estimates as to sommelier salaries vary widely, but if you have the qualifications and the experience, and I might add, the personality, six-figure positions are out there. A salary survey conducted by the Guild of Sommeliers in 2015 (https://www. guildsomm.com/stay_current/ discussion_forums/f/109/t/8508) indicated that the median income for 1,008 respondents was $60,000 a year, but for those (40) who had passed the top Master Sommelier certification the rate jumped to $147,000 per year. In fairness that group is the epitome of the profession and much of their income comes from endeavors other than pouring wine.

Even so, the point is this is a new age for sommeliers and those who love wine are the beneficiaries.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE 2015 CALERA CHARDONNAY- CENTRAL COAST While the Grüner was a great call, I still had a yen for a little chardonnay, and I am a complete sucker for the wines of Josh Jensen and Calera. This little fruitforward, succulent and intensely flavored wine is sourced from some of the Central Coast’s best vineyards. It is fine food wine, but also one that I can sip while watching a sunset. Sweet.

COOKING FROM THE HEART OF AFGHANISTAN

AS SOON AS I STEP into the home, the rich aromas of caramelizing garlic, onion, and spices wrap me in a cozy hug. I follow the sound of excited chatter to a spacious kitchen, where four women are bustling around an island piled high with shiny eggplant, tomatoes, herbs, and a giant bowl of raw, cubed chicken. Knives thwack, oil sizzles, and laughter AMANDA fills the moments in RAE between. Commanding the crowded stovetop is a diminutive woman in a vivid turquoise sheath, her heart-shaped face and dark features framed by a matching headscarf. She smiles and invites me over for a closer look.

Sparkling marble countertops and cutting-edge American appliances notwithstanding, the scene is one that could be found in this woman’s homeland on any given morning. It is energetic and full of joy — which is exactly what Maryam (not her real name), a young Afghan native on scholarship in the US, hopes to share with the 45 guests who will feast on her cuisine tomorrow evening. In her country, food is the tie that binds all people — especially women, for whom cooking is the rare activity they claim as their own in a brutally oppressive, patriarchal society.

Maryam stirs a saucepan of aromatics that have melted down into a deep tawny paste — the base for qorma, a traditional chicken stew fragranced with coriander, turmeric, and curry powder. She’s also preparing a dish of chickpeas with onions, peppers, and tomatoes (nakhod), and will fold dozens of bollani, hand pies stuffed with boiled potato, sautéed leek, and cilantro and fried until crispy.

Slowly sautéed spinach (sabzi), chutney, and lemon-cucumber yogurt sauce will round out the spread.

Maryam explains that these traditional Afghan dishes are

14

F

prepared simply, with plenty of time, allowing the ingredients to shine. “We make a curry, but we don’t put so much spices,” she says, noting the difference between her native cuisine and Indian cookery. Still, Afghan rice (wareje) is unavailable here, so she’ll use basmati rice from India instead.

Maryam and her three helpers have been at it for hours already, and they’ll continue all day tomorrow, too.

Though these ladies are pouring plenty of love and care into the impressive spread, one can’t help but acknowledge a dark truth simmering away alongside it. For the six-plus years that she’s been coming to the United States, Maryam hasn’t been able to tell her family, friends, or neighbors back home in war-torn Helmand Province, one of the most dangerous parts of Afghanistan. It’s too risky. If anyone were to learn that Maryam is here, two years into medical school after completing an undergraduate degree (making dean’s list and serving as a resident assistant while learning English simultaneously), and not working in Pakistan as her father would have them believe, her family might be tortured—or worse.

“My father could be killed!” she says. Her soft-brown, doe-like eyes soften the candidness of her comment. “[The Taliban] will not even take a second to think about it.”

But it’s a risk that Maryam, 29, is willing to take, so that she can finish her studies in the US and return to Helmand to become the area’s first female doctor. (It took her father two years before he agreed to send her through the undergraduate program organized by Action For Afghan Women (AFAW), an Aspen-based nonprofit that helps foreign women pursue educational opportunities in the US.) Her dream is to open a clinic, where she aspires to treat 20,000 women per year, train midwives with basic skills, and offer human rights counseling to those in need.

S e pte m b e r 15 - S e pte m b e r 2 1, 20 16

“When I met [Maryam] about eight years ago, out of a million-plus people, there were three women who were allowed out to work in the whole province, and she was one of them,” says AFAW founder Paula Nirschel. (Maryam was lucky: Her grandfather, rather open-minded for a man of his era, helped her snag a job with the U.S. Agency for International Development when she was 16, leading to a series of jobs in information and training.)

“Women who live in that area (about 500,000) have never seen doctors — they’re not allowed,” continues Nirschel, who carefully curated the medical school program three years ago, after Maryam shared her goals. “The only way they can get healthcare is if there is a women’s-specific facility they will be able to visit together.”

So far, Maryam is the only student pursuing medicine. “It’s near impossible to find another qualified candidate in the Helmand area,” Nirschel says. “And someone qualified who would commit to going back.”

The Afghan dinner comprises a tradition that Nirschel has shared for 15 years as she’s worked to

better the lives of dozens of Afghan women through various educational programs she’s created from scratch, first based in Washington, D.C., and now in Aspen for four years. It’s a fundraiser to help Maryam and others finish their studies, of course, but benefits extend outward as well.

“It is a chance for people to share in the Afghanistan we know — which is quite different than the way the country is portrayed on the news,” explains Nirschel, who developed the scholarship program, quite literally, from her living room couch, while watching CNN. “And show them Afghanistan through food.”

Nirschel recalls her first visit to Afghanistan, in 2003. Apart from the shock of seeing a violenceravaged landscape with her own eyes, “I remember not wanting to leave the table,” she says of mealtimes. “You’re honored if you’re a guest in their home. Lunch and dinner were the same: a full spread, stopping in the middle of the day to relax and visit. It’s leisurely, it’s heart-centered, and it’s pretty food. It’s nourishing and nurturing.

I remember the appreciation in people’s faces. The irony of it has

gotten me all these years: Why is it that people who have so little and a country that is so torn apart by war has such richness to it?”

Like other AFAW events before it, the recent meal in Aspen would be a jubilant success. “We ate on the floor, on pillows, and for an hour and a half people just milled around eating more,” Nirschel says when I meet with her the following week.

“There was an abundance of good feeling.”

After dessert of rice pudding spiced with cardamom and pistachios, Maryam gathered guests — many of whom donned Nirschel’s colorful Afghan frocks and tried on burkas, ultra-conservative head coverings that reveal only a woman’s eyes — into a circle for a traditional Afghan dance. Upon learning that Maryam had never enjoyed an opportunity to play a musical instrument, a cellist in Aspen’s summer orchestra volunteered to perform and offered her a quick lesson.

The evening raised $2,500, about half of which will pay Maryam’s medical insurance; an anonymous donor has pledged a $5,000 matching donation if AFAW is

able to raise another $2,500. This funding, Nirschel stresses, is crucial for January tuition.

“Sending [Maryam] back with a medical degree is even more than I thought could happen,” Nirschel says. “Her life has been very difficult, but she’s a woman on a mission.

She’s focused. She knows what she’s doing. Let’s help her get the job done.” amandaraewashere@gmail.com

The Bu$ine$$ Planning a wedding is no piece of cake.

The stakes are high for everyone involved in putting on the show — even more so, perhaps, when the stage is Aspen.

But Aspen Wedding Guide cofounder Robin Proctor, whose experience includes 16 years photographing and assisting with weddings at resorts including Steamboat, Breckenridge and Vail, said “the professionalism at the resorts in Aspen is bar-none better than anywhere else I’ve worked.”

Still, the multi-billion-dollar wedding industry — with its costs, complexities and countless cottage businesses beneath one umbrella — isn’t all Champagne and roses.

“This is a crazy biz we are in,” said Aspen wedding photographer Ross Daniels. “And no

matter what, you have to be on your toes and ready to handle anything that comes your way.”

MONEY MATTERS In the U.S., the average cost of a wedding — excluding the honeymoon — is $26,645, according to The Wedding Report, Inc. The Wedding Report is a national research company that collects wedding market research and tracks spending and consumer trends within the wedding industry.

The “average cost” of a wedding is deceiving, however. In fact, that $26K is nearly triple the amount that the majority of couples shell out; most American brides and grooms spend less than $10,000 on their big day, according to The Wedding Report.

What gives? Or takes, in this case.

The additional thousands, hundreds of

S e pte m b e r 15 - S e pte m b e r 2 1, 20 16

thousands and even millions that some wellto-do couples will pour into their weddings tip the scale. It’s the money being spent to create the one-of-a-kind wedding that the bride-to-be has dreamed of since she was a little girl. You know, like the fairytale weddings that take place in fairytale town like Aspen ...

IT TAKES A VILLAGE... ... Of planners, photographers, caterers, cakebakers, florists, entertainers, musicians, jewelers, dress designers, stylists, make-up artists to make it all happen.

Oh, and then there’s booking the wedding venue, which is typically the most expensive component to a wedding.

For instance, in a wedding that costs $26,645 (the national average), The Wedding Report estimates that a whopping $11,944 of that is spent between the venue, catering and rentals.

Much like the key to a successful relationship once the vows are said and done, the key to executing a successful wedding is communication, Proctor said.

Crucial to any wedding is a smooth line of communication between the multiple vendors, and this often starts with a wedding planner.

From the bouquet to the rings and the makeup to the cocktail hour, every part of a bride-and-groom’s walk down the aisle is planned with painstaking attention to detail — and it all comes with a pricetag.

important to us,” Ryan said.

THE PROCESS OF PLANNING Sometimes confused with the bride-to-be’s personal assistant or family therapist, Gold Leaf Events co-founder Kate Ryan said jokingly, wedding planners often assist couples from the moment they get engaged to the minute their plane arrives at whatever is the exotic destination for the honeymoon.

Gold Leaf Events is an Aspen-based eventplanning company that offers exactly this.

Founded by Ryan and Chelsea Dillon, the fullservice firm, which focuses on event design and production, is based locally but travels worldwide in an effort to “keep the seasons of our work original,” Ryan said.

Ryan and Dillon have worked together on weddings in Aspen for about five years.

The duo has also coordinated weddings in other locations, which Ryan said has taught them how planning an Aspen wedding is “very different than others in many ways.”

IT’S ALL IN THE DETAILS Lacking access to places like arts and crafts stores, wholesale shops and linen companies are just a

AND THEN THERE’S THE BOTTOM LINE few ways that planning a wedding locally presents additional challenges.

This forces planners to be “very accurate and extremely detailed” in placing and keeping track of online orders in advance, Ryan said.

“We often compare Aspen to living on an island,” she said. “And while the vendors who are located here are topnotch, we absolutely put our Amazon Prime membership to good use.”

The plethora of vendors and services to select from in less remote destinations also leaves room for a more price-negotiable — and consequently, less expensive — experience, Ryan said.

“There are so many things to consider when planning a wedding, starting with an original design,” which Gold Leaf helps create, she said.

The next step is to negotiate with and contract vendors who will best contribute in “the wedding’s overall aesthetic, coordinating logistics and executing a seamless event” from start to finish.

“Details and personalized touches are extremely

According to The Wedding Report’s financial breakdown, the planning piece of the puzzle is traditionally one of the lesser expensive costs of a wedding.

For a $26,645 wedding, the research group estimated that approximately $827 goes to wedding planners and consultants.

Ryan declined to comment on figures associated with Gold Leaf Events’ wedding planning services but said that its rates are “competitive with other local coordinators” in the luxury market.

“We create custom proposals for each of our clients once we work with them to establish what their expectations are,” Ryan said, “in addition to accessing the level of production.”

A PICTURE’S WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS (AND SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS) A wedding is, to some, the single-most important or

21

memorable day of their life. It also is one of, if not the most, significant milestones in any couples’ relationship.

In another words, the pressure is on, which might help to explain why that wedding portrait costs a pretty penny.

The Wedding Report estimates the national cost of wedding photographers and videographers to be upward of $3,000.

In Aspen, these services tend to be more than double or triple the national average — often costing between $6,000 and $10,000, Proctor said.

Perhaps the high cost is associated with the consummate level of professionalism that Proctor mentioned earlier?

Cath Adams, of Gregg & Cath Photographers — a local husband and wife photography team of more than 20 years, said she and Gregg, “have always gone the extra mile discussing the fine details and what matters most to each couple.”

“We take the time to know each of our wedding couples and what they are all about,” she said. “We offer a variety of services that are catered and designed around each wedding couple’s preferences.

This can either be wildly extravagant with multiple photographers or something as simple as an elopement with one photographer.”

ASPEN ‘HAS IT ALL’ Aside from revealing the Adams’ passion for what they do, the duo’s vow to tailor their services to their clienteles’ vastly different styles also speaks to the diversity of couples seeking an Aspen wedding.

(Much like the diversity in people who live and vacation here, too).

“Whether it’s the multi-million dollar wedding on the backside of Aspen or the elopement at the Maroon Bells, this valley has so much to offer,” photographer Daniels said. “If you’re looking for world-class food, service, planning, venues, entertainment and ease of access, Aspen has it all.

If you’re looking for serenity and beauty in a lowkey environment, we’ve got that too.”

AT THE END OF THE DAY...

Proctor said. “They are a wonderful reminder to really take care of your loved ones.”

BEWARE THE ‘BRIDE-ZILLA’

WE ASKED SEVERAL LOCAL WEDDING PLANNERS, PHOTOGRAPHERS, CATERERS AND FLORISTS TO SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH THE DREADED “BRIDE-ZILLAS” (AND, EVIDENTLY, OTHER TYPES OF ‘ZILLAS’). HERE ARE THEIR TOP TALES: “Our bride-zillas aren’t always (or even usually) the brides; we’ve had a best manzilla, several father of the bride-zillas and even a groom-zilla (or two).”

-An Aspen wedding planner “I’ve really only had one and it was just the most awkward situation. The bride, who was model-gorgeous, didn’t like having her picture taken and so uncomfortable about it. But she didn’t mention that until the wedding day, when I was like, ‘Why is she acting so strange?’ I had to ask (the bride), ‘Are you OK?’ and she was like, ‘Yeah, I just hate having my picture taken.’ I was like, ‘Well how am I suppose to do my job?’ It definitely made things difficult; I had to be really choosy about where I put my camera, that sort of thing.”

–An Aspen wedding photographer “One the first weddings I planned in Aspen was for a bride who was four months pregnant. Her dress arrived in Aspen and she tried it on for her mother and I at a local hotel the day prior to her wedding. Her mother asked if the sash on the dress was removable, and the bride took such offense to this question, she grabbed a pair of scissors and started cutting pieces of her dress off, as I sat there trying to figure out exactly what to say to get her to stop, I watched piece after piece fall to the floor. I walked over slowly and asked for the scissors

When all is said and done, it is ironic that an occasion that is prompted by love can lead to so many headaches (and thousands of dollars).

While the purpose is to celebrate the love of two people coming together, Daniels said, “it’s also about giving your guests, who probably traveled, a great experience.

“They love you but they also want to have fun and participate in a great party,” he said. “For the mountain-style wedding, there is nothing better than Aspen.”

For Proctor, nearly two decades worth of whimsical, love-is-in-the-air vibrations and emotional sentiments expressed throughout an uncountable number of ceremonies and celebratory toasts has left the local wedding expert with the same impression year after year.

“I think weddings make me a better person,”

in which the bride did hand them over and laid down on the bed bawling. I was able to get in touch with a local seamstress we often use, who was able to repair much of the dress in time, and we also made a call to the florist to add some larger blooms and greenery to create a very beautiful, oversized bouquet which not only helped cover the rest of the damage but also the small baby bump she was still trying to hide. All in all, everything worked out, but in moments like these you do sometimes question whether you’re a wedding planner or psychiatrist.”

-An Aspen wedding planner “I would say 99.9 percent of my brides have been wonderful. Let’s not focus on the .1percent that had a meltdown day of wedding for one reason or another.”

-An Aspen wedding florist “How much time do you have?”

-An Aspen wedding planner “There are those moments that some clients may not be very proud of, but truly it can be a very stressful time. Nothing comes to mind.

Maybe I have blocked them out?”

-An Aspen wedding caterer “I’ve yet to have a bride-zilla and the reason for that is simple: I always have a face-to-face or over the phone consultation before we decide on anything. I think it is hugely important to get to know the people you’re going to be working with and get a feel for who they are and what they are looking for. The pictures are what it’s all about, except it’s also all about the experience. If we don’t get along over a beer and a chat, we probably aren’t a good fit for one another. In that case I will always recommend other professionals in the valley that I think they might vibe better with.”

-An Aspen wedding photographer “‘Bride-zilla’ moments can happen, which we adjust to all situations crossing our path. Being able to remain flexible and cool at hand makes a huge difference in hiring professionals like ourselves who have the experience like we do. One outrageous experience to relate was when a bride lost her balance poolside and fell into the pool where she got caught up in her dress and needed to be rescued. When the situation was underhand and the bride was brought to the edge safely, a number of the guests all decided to jump into the pool together where a huge big ‘pool’ party kicked off.”

ESCAPE ARTIST | CANADA

by AMIEE WHITE BEAZLEY

A FEAST FOR THE EYES, STOMACH AND SOUL THE CANADIAN ROCKIES BY LUXURY TRAIN

I ARRIVED BEFORE DAYBREAK at the Rocky Mountaineer train station in Banff, Alberta, Canada.

It was downright cold, as was to be expected in early morning in the mountains in late fall.

Hundreds of people gathered inside the train station to warm up until finally, at the top of the hour, a light approached in the distance. With its bells ringing, a customdesigned navy blue, AMIEE WHITE white and gold, bi-level BEAZLEY train emerged through the morning mist. The Rocky Mountaineer had arrived to take us on a two-day journey through the Canadian Rockies.

Our trip was scheduled to follow the “First Passage to the West” route from Banff to Vancouver, along the historic Canadian Pacific track, known for connecting British Columbia to the rest of Canada more than 125 years ago. It would be 10 hours of travel each day (one night spent in the small city of Kamloops) with no wifi or cell service. I was cut-off from the outside world and was honestly panicked. Not only did I fear boredom, but I kind of

figured, I live in the mountains, so how exciting and different could this really be from what I already knew and loved?

We settled into the oversized leather seats of the GoldLeaf-level and were quickly given warm hand towels, coffee and pastries to kick off the trip. Around us we met other couples, many of which whom already had experienced Rocky Mountaineer hospitality on previous trips and have returned again and again.

The glass domes of the Rocky Mountaineer are its signature, and they allow you jaw-dropping, panoramic views. Around every corner was a new surprise — craggy peaks, powerful waterfalls and wildlife, seemingly unaware of our passing. The rivers were a stunning turquoise blue, like Lake Louise in Banff, and the trees were at their peak of fall colors, dazzling with a vibrant mix of gold and red, contrasting with the blue sky and white, new fallen snow on the surrounding summits. Almost immediately I was ashamed to have thought that I would somehow be immune to the beauty. Of course, I was humbled.

Not long after we pulled out of Banff, we were escorted downstairs to the first floor where we met our waiter who cared for us for the entirety of the trip. Dining on the Rocky Mountaineer is an event, a throwback to the days of romantic train travel. In the GoldLeaf service dining room, food is prepared by Michelin-trained chefs, Jean-Pierre Guerin and Frederic Couton, who oversee a bustling galley kitchen staffed with more than 80 chefs.

Breakfast included perfectly poached eggs over Canadian ham and buttermilk pancakes with berry preserves and topped, of course, with Canadian maple syrup. Later in the day, I enjoyed a lunch of fresh maple-cured wild Coho salmon from British Columbia, paired with regional wines.

Service was impeccable and friendly (Canadians!) with seasonal hosts and servers who are truly invested in hospitality, ready to share their knowledge of the area and offering tips on what was ahead on the trip.

After breakfast, the train passed over the Continental Divide at Kicking Horse Pass and through the Spiral Tunnels, which cuts

into Cathedral Mountain and Mount Ogden, before descending to the Columbia River Valley.

As landscapes changed so did the animals and colors. Our conductor would slow the cars and our cabin host would alert us to sightings of bear, sheep, elk, deer, otter and heron.

But Rocky Mountaineer is much more than just a sightseeing adventure — it’s an experience in pampering, and a practice in decompression. Instead of checking my email (which I would have done if there was wifi, I hate to admit), I spent the day talking with other passengers, reading and enjoying wine from the Okanagan valley. I also spent a lot of time on the outdoor vestibule, taking photographs and counting bald eagles (35!) as they dove into the rivers to feast on salmon that had returned to the bedrock from which they first spawned.

This trip is perfect for the photographer, for a multigenerational group of travelers, and for those who want to be in the mountains but perhaps physically can no longer make the hike or bike to access them. Through the passing of endless ponderosa pine, aspen and evergreens, I came to understand that while these mountains, rivers and landscapes may be timeless, the view just never gets old.

The Rocky Mountaineer runs from spring to fall.

THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF BELLA SERA

MAY SELBY

NATIONAL JEWISH HEALTH, the leading respiratory hospital in the nation, honored Elain and Marvin Rosenberg and Bob Sharpe on Aug. 8 at the 10th anniversary Bella Sera held at Belly Up. The Caribbean-themed celebration featured island cocktails, fabulous fare and entertainment from multi-platinum artist Michael Franti & Spearhead. Emmy- and Grammy-winning musician Randy Newman also sent his congratulations to the night’s honorees via a video message from his home in Pacific Palisades, California.

All three honorees received the National Jewish Health Humanitarian Award, each recognized for their significant civic and charitable contributions. Elaine and Marvin Rosenberg are known for their generosity and leadership in their hometown Cincinnati, where Marvin was a founding partner of

Towne Properties and Elaine helped launch Cincinnati’s Cancer Support Community after her own fight against breast cancer. Today, they spend most of their time in Aspen.

MUSIC/ART/FILM/LITERATURE

by ANDREW TRAVERS

RAGING AGAIN WHEN PROPHETS OF RAGE announced its formation in May along with a “Make America Rage Again” tour that would begin with a protest at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, guitarist Tom Morello called the politically motivated supergroup and its tour “a historical necessity.”

Bringing together three-fourths of Rage Against the Machine with DJ Lord and Chuck D of Public Enemy and B-Real of Cypress Hill, the activist band’s stated aim is to catalyze a revolution in this season of electoral insanity and social upheaval.

“This is not just music, this is a movement,” Morello was quoted as saying.

When Prophets came to Red Rocks Ampitheatre on Sept. 7, they put on a fierce show fueled by powerhouse renditions of Rage Against the Machine songs, peppered with Public Enemy and Cypress Hill tracks and a few covers.

But was revolution really in the air?

I kept wondering during the show whether the 9,000-plus people in the crowd were there to fight the power or whether they just wanted to sing and scream along with a nostalgia act trotting out old hits.

I expected protests in Denver accompanying the tour. There were none. I expected a parking lot filled with advocacy groups, activists handing out flyers, revolutionaries on soapboxes with bullhorns and raised fists. Instead it was the usual rock show tailgate scene.

The music from the stage, of course, raged against institutional racism, police brutality, the military-industrial complex and other parts of the proverbial machine. And, musically, the band gave a tremendously powerful cross-genre performance with a message. But maybe I wanted more than a great rock show. Maybe I’d come to expect more. As a teenager, for instance, I’d gone to Rage’s infamous 1999 benefit for Death Row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal at the Meadowlands in New Jersey, when the governor and police leaders (and, more importantly for me at the time, my parents) deemed the band dangerous and radical insurgents and tried to shut the concert down. Being there, supporting the band and Mumia, felt like it mattered somehow. I didn’t get that feeling seeing Prophets of Rage.

Prophets did offer intermittent

commentary from the stage. Chuck D asked at one point, “Trump and Hillary, what the f-ck?” B-Real urged the crowd to “Stay woke.” And Morello exhorted the audience to take action in their own communities and noted that proceeds from the Red Rocks show would support the Food Bank of the Rockies: “The world is going to change, but it’s up to you. So aim for the world you want.”

Whether or not this tour is having any meaningful impact outside the arenas it’s playing may be beside the point, though. The band’s ferocious set tore through Rage, Public Enemy and Cypress Hill songs that kept the crowd screaming, pumping fists and generally losing it for just over 90 minutes. DJ Lord opened with “The Star Spangled Banner” (for which, yes, everybody in the crowd seemed to stand). The band joined him on-stage, opening with an inspired hard rock arrangement of Public Enemy’s “Prophets of Rage” followed by Rage’s “Guerilla Radio” and “Bombtrack” and Public Enemy’s “She Watch Channel Zero.”

Chuck D and B-Real’s dual vocals did Zack de la Rocha justice on the Rage songs that made up the bulk of the set, especially on “People of the Sun,” “Testify” and the explosive show-closing combo of “Bulls on Parade” and “Killing in the Name.” D’s crisp and authoritative delivery, matched with B-Real’s nasal

rap tone, hit both registers of de la Rocha’s intense and inimitable style.

Vocally, the only place they fell short was in the crescendo growls and barbaric yawps on songs like “Take the Power Back” and “Bombtrack.” Nobody else can quite pull that off with the passion and, sure, rage of de la Rocha (who, the morning after the Red Rocks show, released a new single, again teasing the long-awaited solo album that’s been rumored since Rage broke up in 2000).

A high point of the show was the Prophets’ mash-up of the Beastie Boys’ “No Sleep Til Brooklyn” and Public Enemy’s “Fight the Power,” with Lord spinning beats, Brad Wilk matching him on drums and Chuck D and B-Real trading vocals as Morello scratch-played his guitar (which was emblazoned with “Arm the Homeless” on one side and “Nobody for President” on the other). The band debuted the reworked Beasties song in May as the RNCthemed “No Sleep Til Cleveland.”

The energy and purpose of the show flagged only during an unfortunate sixsong medley of Cypress Hill and Public Enemy tracks, during which B-Real and Chuck D walked into the audience and the three Rage guys walked off stage for a break. The medley reduced Public Enemy classics like “Welcome to the Terrordome” and “Can’t Truss It” and

Cypress Hill songs like “Insane in the Membrane” to just a few perfunctory lines as crowd members snapped selfies with the singers. I guess the idea was that these songs were best served without the full band treatment, or that truncating them would allow time for more of the Rage Against the Machine material the crowd was yearning to hear. Either way, the set would be better off without this interlude. And why not put the band to work on interpreting them? Morello is a wizard who can seemingly wrest any sound from his guitar — why not let us see how he might score these tracks?

Prophets of Rage may not be the movement it aimed to become, but the band did put on a moving show at Red Rocks. And it did convince me that these Rage Against the Machine songs need to live on, whether or not the band does — at this point they’re part of a fabric of righteous American protest music alongside Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger and Nina Simone and Public Enemy. We’ve needed them often since Rage went silent in 2000.

And if Zack de la Rocha had to sit out this election season, there are no better stand-ins — politically and artistically — than Chuck D and B-Real. atravers@aspentimes.com

Members of Rage Against the Machine, Public Enemy and Cypress Hill have been touring as Prophets of Rage since late May. The band headlined Red Rocks Ampitheatre on Sept. 7.

BOOK REVIEW

‘WOLF BOYS’ DAN SLATER’S “WOLF BOYS” follows the story of Gabriel Cardona from his birth in Laredo, Texas, in 1986 to his eventual career as a hit man with the Los Zetas drug cartel.

After pursuing a criminal career in high school, the teen catches the eye of a Mexican drug cartel and is lured into working south of the border. The job brings a steady income, respect from his friends and enemies, and a sense of belonging.

Meanwhile in Texas, Robert Garcia, a Mexican-born detective, fights a drug war with which he’s quickly becoming disillusioned.

But when Gabriel’s work with the drug trade brings him back to the United States, Robert’s involvement suddenly gets more personal.

Slater’s work depicts the day-

to-day horrors of drug cartel operations. From brainwashing at boot camp orientation where children and men learn the practicalities of murder to company hierarchies, parties and rules of conduct, gritty details unfold in grueling fashion.

The author also explores the complicated relationship between cartel members and their families.

Mothers, girlfriends and wives beg their loved ones to turn away and pursue legal employment yet eagerly accept the perks of drug trade — wads of cash, new cars and name brand clothes. In one scene, a teen shoots an enemy who sits in the driver’s seat of a Lexus with his family. In the next, the mother of the victim sells plates of chicken and rice on the side of the road to

pay for the funeral.

Slater traces the history and money among cartels, politicians, authorities and the media in Mexico and America’s border towns. While few maintain clean hands, Slater expounds on the complexities tethered to each pass of currency.

Thoroughly researched with stark details, “Wolf Boys” shines a glaring light on the atrocities of cartel life.
