FILM IF YOU HAVEN’T YET

explored Mickalene Thomas’ incredible “Mentors, Muses, and Celebrities” — currently occupying two galleries in the Aspen Art Museum basement — Friday might be a good time. The show looks at the public personas and influence of black women — Eartha Kitt, Wanda Sykes and Pam Grier among them, along with the great Nina Simone. If you have seen it, Friday night offers an opportunity to dig a little deeper.

In conjunction with the Thomas exhibition, the museum is offering a free screening of the acclaimed documentary “What Happened, Miss Simone?” at 7 p.m. on Friday. It follows the museum’s recent screening of “The Color Purple,” jumping off from Thomas’ use of images of Celie (as played by Whoopi Goldberg) in mixed media portraits.

Released through Netflix last year, “What Happened, Miss Simone?” blends archival footage of the singer-activist with interviews with her family and friends, offering a complex portrait of a brilliant and towering artist.

It was nominated for the Oscar for Best Documentary earlier this year.

An Aspen Art Museum artist-in-residence, Thomas used her time here to explore new modes of art-making.

Best known for her intricate paintings incorporating rhinestones, acrylic and enamel, the Aspen show includes audio and video installations along with an inviting living room space in each gallery. The sitting areas are lined with books on feminist theory and AfricanAmerican history, which Thomas invites visitors to read in the gallery.

The Oscar-nominated documentary “What Happened, Miss Simone?” will screen for free at the Aspen Art Museum on Friday, May 27.

THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

VOX POP What’s the fastest you’ve ever traveled?

with JOHN COLSON

Powell’s Puddle may soon be drained and gone ARE YOU TIRED of politics, deeply mortified by the rise of Donald Trump from the ashes of his own outsized ego and premature dementia, worried that the choice between The Donald and The Hillary is a devil’s bargain at best?

Me, too.

So I decided to leave behind the great political brouhaha this week and turn my mind to other matters.

I note with interest that the debate over the fate of Glen Canyon Dam — you know, the one that created Lake Powell in southern Utah, the second-largest artificial reservoir in the U.S., which has bedeviled environmentalists for decades — has reached the point where even the staid New York Times has hinted that the dam’s useful days are done.

Granted, the NYT story last weekend is not the first time anyone has dreamed of this outcome.

The environmental diaspora has been wondering for years about how long it would take before even the dam builders conceded that Glen Canyon Dam was a bad bet.

The late Edward Abbey’s most famous book, “The Monkeywrench Gang,” envisioned that the dam would one day burst or be blown up, and the river would be released to scour away the crumbling concrete.

Environmental warrior David Brower, founder of the Friends of the Earth, inadvertently helped create the lake and the dam when, in the 1950s, he fought to prevent construction of a different dam planned for Northwest Colorado and a compromise settlement lead to the building of Glen Canyon Dam. Brower did that before he had seen Glen Canyon.

Once he saw Glen Canyon, with its immense system of natural arches and glorious side canyons, he immediately admitted that his ignorance had helped bring about a massive folly.

An article in The Guardian about a year ago dealt with the “disappearing” waters of the lake, noting that it took 200 million years for the Colorado River to carve out the gloriously breathtaking canyon country that was drowned by the rising waters of the lake starting in 1963, the year the dam was completed.

According to the May 22 NYT story — penned by a reporter working for the ProPublica news organization — there are a few reasons the idea of decommissioning Glen Canyon Dam is making waves, as it were.

One is that Lake Powell leaks.

That’s right, the waters of the lake have been leaking into faults and crevasses since

the reservoir began filling, at a rate that some say has reached upward of 300,000 acre-feet per year. That translates to what some estimate as 120 billions of gallons of water annually that the engineers hoped would be used to generate power, the original reason for building the dam.

Another is the fact that the lake loses even more water, as much as 160 billions of gallons of water each year, to evaporation in the hot desert sun.

Yet another reason is an effect of global warming — or climate change, or whatever you want to call it — which has cut into the amount of water from snowmelt and other sources that feed the lake each year.

The net result is that the reservoir has been draining faster each year than it is being refilled, which has left Lake Powell looking more like Powell’s Puddle for some time.

Not only has this left an unsightly bathtub ring around the rim of the puddle — remnants of earlier high-water marks — it has slashed the amount of power generated by the dam’s huge turbines, to the point where the federal agency managing the power output of the dam spent $62 million in 2014 to buy power from other sources to meet the dam’s obligations.

One thing the article did not mention, in its litany of reasons Lake Powell might be drained, was the fact that the lake’s bottom has silted up over the years, further contributing to the puddle metaphor.

According to a 2011 article in High Country News, the river once carried 90 million tons of sand slurry through Glen Canyon. But these days, only about 15 million tons of silt is measurable downstream from the dam. The rest drops out of the flow and settles to the bottom — 75 million tons of sludge building up every year over the course of the past half-century.

They say the muck is about to reach the dam’s lowermost outlet, some 237 feet above the base of the dam, which would signal the end of the dam’s useful life.

According to the NYT article, Glen Canyon Dam would not be dismantled.

Rather, the flood gates would be opened and the lake would drain away, presumably with its load of silt.

The water would then travel down the Colorado River to Hoover Dam, where it would help fill Lake Mead, which also has seen its water levels dropping. Because Mead is believed to be “water tight” (no major leaks) some say that sending the river to Mead would lessen the annual losses by perhaps a couple of hundred thousand acrefeet a year.

Makes sense to me.

LEGENDS & LEGACIES

Castle Creek Road before it was paved.

A ROAD TO DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES A short drive on a dirt road, the kind that prompts only a

little rocking at 10 mph and then makes you think your car will fall apart at 15, reminded me of trips taken throughout my childhood. If you ventured beyond the pavement of Highway 82 during the 1950s, you embarked on a dirt road Odyssey.

Summer picnic and fishing trips with family and parents’ friends almost always took place alongside Castle Creek. We often encamped on the lower section of the Midnight Mine Road, or along Castle Creek downstream from the Elk Mountain Lodge. My father drove our 1942 Buick, which he named Oliver Wendell Holmes, a hat tip to the Chief Justice for his “clear and present danger” doctrine. If we traveled in spring, shortly after the annual county grading of Castle Creek Road, the trip was reasonably short and smooth.

When I rode with my aunt and uncle in their Jeep, I sat in the back on flat metal benches – it was hard to call them “seats.” If those trips took place long after the grading date, the vehicle vibrated and bounced with every rut and ripple it traversed. My bottom would be in the air for half the journey. A Jeep trip up Queens Gulch to check on the Midnight Mine or to the Sundeck felt better because we crept along at walking speed in lowrange gear.

My elders enjoyed these rides.

Back then, the road up Castle Creek began at the end of Seventh Street and clung to the east side of the valley all the way to the Music School campus. The consistent grade used today, from the Castle Creek/ Maroon/82 intersection to the Music School, had been a railroad spur

valley. The county ceased to maintain that route after about 1910.

The road that we know today as the Midnight Mine Road originated as a steep wagon road built for the Koch sawmill. The workings were located a little below the modern Midnight tunnel and mill.

When my father first worked

as a teenager for the mine during summers and weekends he would walk from town to the mine. It was a shorter trip on foot because it did not require a drive to the Maroon/Castle/82 intersection. In addition, the Koch road had fewer switchbacks. It followed the bottom of the gulch, which was a steeper grade, but one that was acceptable if you were walking.

My grandfather, who managed the mine, would drive his 1912 Buick up the grade at least once a week to inspect the tunnel progress. When he carried a passenger that person had to leave the car and hike the steepest grades.

Two Belgian draft horses moved all ore and other objects to and from the Midnight. The team drew a wagon in the summer and a sled in the winter.

In the 1930s, the Midnight rebuilt the road to the mine and changed the grade so trucks could handle it. They built a bridge across Castle Creek that could sustain the heavy weight. They also improved Castle Creek Road. Around the same time, as a Depression project, the Forest Service re-engineered the old wagon road from the Midnight turnoff to Ashcroft.

The ride to Ashcroft seemed rough and interminable for me as a child. But for my elders, the rebuilt road felt like a freeway.

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.

TAKING THE TROPHY

1906 ASPEN

ON MAY 29, 1906, The Aspen Daily Times reported on an article that had run in a Leadville newspaper, The Herald Democrat. As the Times noted, “The Herald Democrat is considered very conservative, so our citizens will the more appreciate the following words taken from its headlines on Sunday morning. It said in bold, black type — ‘Leadville Fell Behind. Aspen High School Captures all the Honors on Track, Field and Rostrum,’ referring to the Field Day at Glenwood. This should cheer ‘our boys’ and also our citizens in general.

Thanks, Herald Democrat; your words are appreciated.” The photo above shows the 1906 Aspen High School track team with their trophy.

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

RIDE ON: BEST URBAN BIKING WHEELS? IT’S BEEN A LONG ROAD to ride since 2012, when one August day I unboxed a set of wheels and attached them to a bike frame. Fast-forward 10,000 miles — yes, that is my estimate of distance put down after almost four years on the bike — and the wheels are still going strong.

Tires have come and gone. Parts have changed, and I even swapped in a new frame after a crack formed on the bottom bracket on the original.

But the wheels, Mavic’s Ellipse Track model, have remained true.

The aluminum alloy wheels are sold for track racers and urban riders who bike fixed-gear or singlespeed. I roll them almost year-round, commuting, training, and racing occasional alley cats and other events in Minneapolis and beyond.

At about $450 for the pair, the Ellipse Track wheels are marketed as a mid-range set. (High-end wheels easily go for $1,000 and much more.) Beginner or

intermediate track racers are candidate, as well as urban bikers who want fast, do-all wheels.

An aerodynamic build, including a 30mm deep rim profile and low-count, bladed steel spokes, helps the wheels cut through wind.

At about 1,900 grams per pair, they are lightweight for their price. I have certainly ridden lighter wheels, but the Ellipse Tracks feel fast — they accelerate with ease, and they course up hills.

Mavic touts “high-efficiency cartridge bearings” in the hubs. In my multi-year review, the efficiency

has shown, as well as the hubs’ durability. Basically, the wheels spin as smooth as they did on day one, no service needed and not a single spoke loose despite much abuse.

The Ellipse Track wheels come with a “flip-flop” rear hub, threaded for either a fixed-gear or a freewheel on back. The rims fit tires size 21 to 28 mm, giving a range from super skinny to “fat enough to absorb some bumps.”

If you race on a velodrome, you likely already know about these wheels; they are among the most popular sub-$1,000 set for track racing. For anyone else, if you ride singlespeed or fixed and need a durable, fast set of spinners, look at the Ellipse for the full package.

WINEINK

JOHN SUTCLIFFE: A FOUR CORNERS ICON JOHN SUTCLIFFE has been a soldier, a ranchhand, an artist, an investor, a hotelier, restaurateur, raconteur and a winemaker.

But one visit to his eponymous vineyard tucked into the farthest possible corner of Southwest Colorado proves that, above all else, he is a pioneer.

Choosing to make wine a mile above sea level, in a waterKELLY J. starved canyon HAYES filled with sagebrush and mountain lion, and where the temperatures rise with the Southwestern winds to over 100 degrees in summer and drop below zero when the northerlies blow in January, would prove daunting to most. But Sutcliffe, a Welshman with a boyish charm and an indisputable spirit of legendary proportions, has not just embraced the challenge — he has reveled in it. And today he makes exceptional wines in the Four Corners region, the very heart of the land that the ancient indigenous peoples of North America planted, harvested and abandoned hundreds of years before.

THE ACCOLADES In an unprecedented moment for Colorado wines, the Wine Enthusiast in 2014 awarded 90-point ratings to Sutcliffe, for their 2010 Merlot, 2010 Syrah and the 2011 Cabernet Franc. While the fruit for the Merlot was from the Oak Knoll District of Napa, both of the other 100 percent single varietal wines were sourced directly from 36 acres of estategrown grapes that are meticulously farmed, most just below the imposing edifice of Battlerock, and all in the shadows of the talisman, Sleeping Ute Mountain.

McElmo Canyon may be the most unlikely place in America to grow grapes for fine wine. Rugged, dry and high, the canyon was home to the Anasazi, the Navajo word used to describe the ancient Native Americans who lived for centuries in the surrounding cliffs and hillsides, building pueblos that remain intact to this day. Just

15 miles west from Mesa Verde, the land seems foreboding and, frankly, a touch cursed. Sometime in the 12th and 13th centuries, the Anasazi people simply disappeared.

Popular theory holds that climate change (a drought lasting 300 years or so decimated the region) may have been responsible for the Anasazi’s departure. Not a good precedent for a winemaker.

THE BEGINNING “I’m guessing that maybe someone in Victoria in Australia, or maybe the Andes, may be making wines in areas like this.

But there are not many of us,” John said on a perfect May afternoon as we sat on the patio of his eclectic home and winery sipping a terrific Viognier. I began to grill him about the who, what, and why of the place.

“We planted the first vines in 1995,” he said as he gestured toward the sloping vines that faced due west, into both the burning sun and the direct wind. “It was kind of a group endeavor,” he laughed, rattling off the names of the California wine legends (a Mondavi and Robert Brittan, ex-Stags Leap winemaker, included) who encouraged and helped him plant his vines. “We had no lofty goals and in our first year of production we made 10 cases. And it wasn’t bad.”

Twenty years later the vines look stressed and weathered exactly the way Sutcliffe and his winemaker since 2008, Joe Buckel (a veteran of both BR Cohn and Flowers in Sonoma), like them.

And last year they produced 4,500 cases of wine off of those 36 acres, including the Viognier, a Rosé, and Chardonnay along with the aforementioned reds. They also produce a wine John has dubbed as Hafoty Fawr, named for an ancestral home in Wales.

Sutcliffe Vineyards stands alone in Southwest Colorado, proudly producing wines from the Four Corners region.

character. His goal is to produce wines of nuance and quality and share them with the rest of the world. Though he sells much of his production to members of his wine club, The Sutcliffe Wine Society, he is proud to distribute bottles to the great restaurants of America, and indeed the world.

In Colorado, a state that has seen improvement over the past few vintages in its wine producing chops, Sutcliffe is a bright light. Far from the designated wine making American Viticultural Areas of the Grand Valley (the Grand Junction area), or the West Elks (near Paonia), Sutcliffe is an outlier. But it is precisely for this reason that he has been able to grow and produce wines that are the standard of the state. While there are over 100 wineries and 1,000 acres of wine grapes planted in the state of Colorado, there is no doubt that

Sutcliffe is the one to know.

It took a Welshman, planting blooms in an abandoned desert, to make it happen.

THE LEGACY John Sutcliffe sees himself as a farmer, rather than just a winemaker, and credits both the desolate nature of his lands and the patience he exhibits with his vines for producing wines of balance and

A Rhône blend that John is most proud of, this limited production wine is named for a village home in Wales. Bright, young and oh so fresh, like many of the Sutcliffe wines, it is excellent with food. Fruit forward, but balanced, tasted blind I would suggest that no one, and I mean no one, would be able to identify the origin of this lovely wine.

FOOD MATTERS FOOD MATTERS

OVEREXCITED, UNDERWHELMED SUPERFOOD MEAL DELIVERY: HYPE VERSUS REALITY

SNOOPING AROUND always leads to trouble, doesn’t it? Unfortunately, in certain instances it seems impossible to restrain oneself. That’s how I ended up ordering a three-day series of superfood meals, created by Sakara Life in New York City and sent to my doorstep in Aspen: I spied a massive box on a neighbor’s doorstep, emblazoned with the AMANDA RAE company’s springgreen logo. Curiosity got the best of me.

I’ve heard a lot about the lifestyle brand lately, which launched in 2011 and secured $4.8 million in first-round venture capital funding in January of this year. The program of packaged, delivered meals—made entirely from plant-based, organic, whole foods in the Sakara Life kitchen (“sakara” means “with form” in Sanskrit)—has been endorsed by Gwyneth Paltrow on her lifestyle site, GOOP; featured in magazines spanning ELLE to Shape to W to Food & Wine; and is blowing up Instagram and Snapchat with pix of colorful ingredients, including a basket of freshly picked white strawberry doppelgängers that, according to an emoji caption, taste like pineapple.

Back to a more relaxed diet following a weeks-long cleanse, I craved structure. With a media tasting of an Aspen restaurant’s new summer menu set for Friday night, I arranged to begin Sakara Life’s three-day program during Tuesday dinner (chopped salad with rice, beans, and mushroom dressing) and end after lunch on Friday (Thai veggie burger over rainbow slaw with root vegetable “fries”).

Each day includes a surprise menu of three vibrantly colored meals, plus Morning Water made

with rose petals and silica; Night Water, bright green thanks to chlorella and 72 trace minerals; and detoxifying herbal tea sachets. I also ordered a canister of probiotic, raw cacao bonbons from the website’s separate menu of snacks, partly because my cupboards have been chocolate-poor for far too long but mostly because I must know what it tastes like at an eyebrow-raising $15 per ounce.

One only needs to visit Sakara Life’s website to see my motivation. The company was founded by Whitney Tingle and Danielle DuBoise, two model-hot, blonde twenty-somethings, who admit to losing their connection to food while chasing careers in finance and acting, respectively.

Hoping to reclaim their zest for life and youthful glow in Manhattan, the Sedona, Ariz., natives began studying nutrition, seeking counsel from experts of all mind-body wellness realms (yogis and shamans included).

Plant-based whole foods— hydrating, healing, and deeply satisfying—were their Holy Grail of health.

Since many educated Americans want to eat well yet feel too burned out to follow through on preparing a rainbow of whole foods now widely available, Tingle and DuBoise created Sakara Life: “Eat Clean, Eat Whole.” Meal delivery takes the guesswork out of healthful eating for those able and willing to pay for it (three days run $239; five days, at $420, cost slightly less per day). A “Live It” weekly subscription is $79/day.

On Tuesday afternoon I opened up the massive, insulated box to find meals and drinks for the next three days tucked tightly among icepacks. I arranged the plastic boxes in my fridge and sighed, my OCD tendencies stoked. No grocery shopping or dishes to

Sakara Life’s Classic Chopped Salad packs a nutritional punch with fresh vegetables, rice, and beans. The Manhattan-based company delivers superfood meals around the country.

clean until the weekend!

Unfortunately—and I wrote this in an email to the company after I received a “How are you enjoying the meals so far?” message on the second day—while I wholeheartedly believe in the Sakara Life philosophy of using food as medicine and I appreciate the ease of eating that the system provides, I found the food kind of…blah. (By the way, a company rep did respond to my 300-word email, apologizing for my distaste and reiterating, “Our goal is to serve only the most fresh, highquality, nutrient-dense meals possible so that you ultimately look and feel your best!”)

Each dish is chock-full of superfoods, yes, but sometimes at the expense of flavor. Dressings were a tad sweet and everything was severely under-salted. I understand that the company probably wants to keep sodium low. However, customers who choose meal delivery services might not know how to tweak these foods into more palatable

versions. I doused most meals with vinegar or lemon juice and spices, but I imagine other clients shoving the salad boxes aside en route to raiding the pantry.

Since specific meal selection is unavailable (though one may indicate food allergies when ordering), Sakara Life demands a brave consumer. I consider myself adventurous, yet despite shelling out for the three-day plan, I could not stick with it. I didn’t take more than two bites of two of the meals (looking at you, Plant Protein Granola, dusted bright-green with spirulina powder, and Friday morning’s Stone Fruit Scone, best described as a block of oat cement.)

While I adore arugula, I would have enjoyed a wider variety of greens, especially when salad forms the basis of two meals per day.

The upside: I consumed a crazy variety of foods in three days and even learned a thing or two. Take Wednesday’s lunch: Gotu Kola Carrot Risotto. Say what?

“This is brain food,” the label reads. “We supercharged our

carrot purée with gotu kola, a superherb popular for centuries in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for its ability to calm anxiety, improve memory, and provide mental clarity. Gotu kola’s nickname is ‘fountain of life’ because of its effects on longevity (aka more time to turn #thoughtstothings).”

The marigold-orange purée also offers a high dose of Vitamin A from beta carotene, best absorbed when carrots are cooked, “breaking down their tough cellular walls,” according to the ingredient info. The “exotic tisane dressing” boasts a blend of lavender, mint, and cayenne pepper, and it was lovely—at once calming, refreshing, and energizing.

Savanna Ginger Almond Noodles, inspired by mafe, a West African peanut stew and using black beans as a glutenfree substitute in the pasta, were supremely satisfying, too.

Eating sweet potato mousse with blueberries, sliced almonds (which turned soggy in transit, alas), and bee pollen for breakfast was another novel experience, but I won’t be recreating the dish at home. Ever.

I suppose what I learned from Sakara Life was that deepcleansing with Purium recently turned me into an even bigger food snob than I was before.

Regretfully, I would have liked to know that before I spent $239 on three days of food.

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

by JEANNE MCGOVERN

MAKE IT House-infused Lapsang Souchang Tea Tequila Thai Chili Agave Kafir Lime Black Lava Salt Rim

JALISCO CAMPFIRE With a name like “Hooch,” can you really go wrong? As the newest edition to the Aspen scene, this underground craft cocktail bar lives up to its name. The speakeasy-style decor, knowledgable mixology staff and creative libations menu is worth checking out. And on a recent offseason night, that’s just what I did. Rising to the top of my tasting list was the Jalisco Campfire. I’m not sure if it was the “tea” tequila or chili agave that made this choice from “The Progressive” menu stand out, but I can tell you the smoky-sweet combo did the trick. Rimmed with an eyecatching black lava salt rim, it looked as good as it tasted.

And this only made me look forward to tasting more of Hooch’s offerings in the coming weeks and months.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

When a group gathers in Women’s Forum, wonderful relationships are formed.

A WOMEN’S RETREAT

YEAR ONE IN THE BOOKS FOR THE MILLENNIALS WOMEN’S FORUM GROUP I COULDN’T EVEN REMEMBER the last time I used an Elmer’s glue stick. It felt so playful as I trimmed out pieces of construction paper and then caked them with the gooey adhesive. I smiled at the nostalgia, while simultaneously huffing with impatience because cutting straight lines had become no easier now that I was in BARBARA adulthood.

PLATTS The assignment was an open-ended one this month: Make a timeline of your life. That didn’t necessarily mean I had to pick out packs of pastel colored paper, funny stickers and photos, but for some reason I gravitated toward the traditional scrapbooking technique. It felt cathartic; like it was something I needed to do.

So, for the assignment, I rehashed the 25-plus years of my life on a poster board.

This in-depth assignment commemorated a yearlong anniversary in Women’s Forum.

At the year mark it was time for five smart, beautiful ladies and myself to take a retreat where we

P H OTO B Y A D E L A I D E WAT E R S

would each have an hour or so to present our life timelines. When we became a Women’s Forum group in 2015, I’m not sure any of us knew what we were getting into. I’m sure many women before us have felt the same. But what came out of the unexpected was truly rewarding.

Women’s Forum is a local nonprofit organization founded by Adelaide Waters. The organization is made up of small groups of six to eight women, all at a similar age or stage in life. Each small group meets monthly for three or so hours to discuss a range of topics.

Sometimes the conversations are pressing matters in which one lady needs support. Other times there is a blanket topic we cover such as vulnerability or professional aspirations. Each meeting is different in subject, but what is always consistent is the confidentiality. Anything and everything said in Women’s Forum groups does not go further than the ladies in the room.

Waters started Women’s Forum in 2013 after being part of a group for 15 years in Chicago. When she moved to Aspen later on, she wanted to share a ritual that was so meaningful in her life with

others. Today, there are 11 active groups and two more that will be starting within the year.

When my group began in 2015, we were collectively the youngest in the organization, all in our midto late 20s. Waters piloted our first six months of meetings to show us how they should be outlined, what topics to discuss, and, possibly most important, how to listen and communicate respectively with one another.

Since the start, it feels like we have touched on just about every topic under the sun. We’ve mourned loved ones together; we’ve celebrated new jobs and the achievement of ambitious goals. We’ve shared family and work struggles and helped cheer each other on through physical feats and dietary cleanses. Our conversations have always had one reoccurring theme above all others: They’re honest. There are no facades or made-up stories.

There’s no need to embellish or exaggerate. It’s truthful, which can often be hard to find in others.

Perhaps that honesty is what made me so willing to share my life via horseback riding stickers, drama icon doodles, maps of countries I’ve visited and photos

of loved ones that are no longer with us.

This assignment was difficult to say the least. But the honesty and openness we six have created in our group over the past year made it easier. When we sat down after dinner on our retreat, we each pulled out timelines that were entirely different from one another’s.

The evening included laughter, tears, jokes and confessions. We sat on the couches until the early hours of the morning. I remember around 2 a.m., after all of us had poured our timeline’s out to one another, thinking how lucky I was to have the privilege to know these five incredible ladies. They’ve been in Aspen all along, but I would’ve never had the relationships I do with them if it weren’t for Women’s Forum and Waters’ vision. For both of those things, I am grateful.

Barbara Platts highly recommends Women’s Forum for anyone looking to make new connections and grow personally with the support of others. Reach her at bplatts.000@gmail.com.

Aspen’s state champion sprinter and his coach are much more than

by Dale Strode

WHEN THIS ASPEN HIGH SCHOOL SPRINTER steps into the starting blocks, he

completes his simple prelaunch checklist.

— Clear the mind.

— Focus on form.

Then … BANG! And they’re off.

Seconds later, Sunday Abarca races across the finish line. As he recovers, his eyes search the crowd.

He’s looking for one face, one man.

Aspen High School junior Abarca — two-time state track champion — is looking for coach James Aldridge.

“We’ve just grown closer and closer,” Abarca said.

“Not only in track, but person to person. He’s like family to me now.”

Aldridge, the former Notre Dame running back and current Aspen all-star rugby player, started working with Abarca two years ago.

Last year, he served as one of Abarca’s sprint coaches, eventually taking over as the Aspen High School head track coach this season.

Abarca, then a sophomore, won the 400-meter state championship in Class 3A last year. And he placed third in the 200 meters at the state meet a year ago.

This year, Abarca added to his podium finishes at the state meet in a big way.

He won the 400-meter dash Saturday at Jeffco Stadium in Lakewood, setting a Class 3A state record in the process.

Abarca, with a dramatic come-from-behind effort, won the 400 at state with a lean at the tape, edging Jared Keul of Manitou Springs.

He won in 48.54 seconds, breaking the record of 48.79 set in 2002 by Brian Black of Yuma.

He also finished third in the 100-meter finals in Class 3A, matching his third-place finish in the 200-meter finals.

In two years, Abarca has won back-to-back state titles in the 400, set a state record, and he’s been on the podium at state five times.

He prepped for the state championships by winning the 100, 200 and 400 at the Western Slope League Championships in Grand Junction, where he was named the conference track athlete of the year.

“James was there for every step,” said Abarca, the son of Armando and Anita Abarca. “He knows how to push me mentally and physically, which is great.”

He also credits Aspen coach Kiffor Berg for help in the sprints.

Abarca, who grew up in Aspen, said his race preparation is much more advanced after working extensively with Berg and Aldridge, himself a former outstanding high school track athlete.

He said he knows how to warm up, how to be on time for races and how to prepare his mind, thanks to Aldridge.

Same for proper sleep and nutrition.

The Aspen High School senior-to-be said he’s seen Aldridge on the rugby field, playing for the Gentlemen of Aspen where he showcases his mind-bending speed — the kind of speed that made Aldridge one of the most highly recruited prep running backs coming out of high school.

In fact, Aldridge was a nationally-ranked long jumper as a sophomore in high school in his native

St. Louis. He had a 25-foot jump to his credit — a leap that would have won the Class 5A state title in Colorado this year by two-and-a-half feet.

Aldridge, who finished high school in Indiana, also was a top 200-meter runner before a knee injury in high school football limited his track options.

Abarca, however, is even more awed by Aldridge’s academic career at Notre Dame, where he earned his undergraduate degree with honors in three-anda-half years.

“That balance … gives me something to push forward to,” Abarca said. “To see how it all pushed him.”

Now Abarca, like Aldridge a decade ago, is encountering college options — more with each passing race.

“It is very exciting with a lot of colleges reaching out to me,” Abarca said. “I went to visit UCLA over spring break, and I fell in love with the college … the track.

It’s a beautiful campus; the people are amazing.”

The Aspen High School sprinter pauses and shakes his head, almost not believing his journey from uninterested athlete and student to college prospect — in the classroom and on the track.

“He’s handing it well. He’s taken ownership of the situation,” Aldridge said, adding that Abarca’s commitment to early-morning weight training increased his strength.

Abarca’s offseason commitment to track also advanced his progress. Under Aldridge’s guidance last summer, Abarca raced in the USATF Regionals in Texas and qualified and raced in the USATF national championships in Florida.

“Just being exposed to different environments … like at regionals (in Texas) and being exposed to the country (in Florida) has been big,” Aldridge said.

“That was cool,” Abarca said. “Racing against those older guys helped me. I was 16, most of them were 17. The competition is really intense. It’s awesome. I hope to go back this year.”

He finished third in Texas and 20th in the national 400-meter finals in Florida.

But how did the lives of James Aldridge and Sunday Abarca — two black men — intersect in snow white Aspen?

“Rugby,” Aldridge said. “I came here to play rugby.”

Aldridge was leaving his last NFL training camp following his Notre Dame career when he got a lifealtering telephone call.

“Andy Katoa invited me up to Aspen for rugby,” Aldridge said of Katoa, a former standout player and coach with the Gentlemen of Aspen who also

“That was cool. Racing against those older guys (in Texas and Florida) helped me. I was 16, most of them were 17. The competition was really intense.”

had played football in college. Katoa played and coached with the USA 7s rugby team and is currently the national 7s coach in Tonga.

“I fell in love with the place,” Aldridge said, adding he was staggered by the visual aesthetics in Aspen. And the active lifestyles. And the athletes.

He’s been here ever since, working as a trainer/ therapist in the area, often seen at Aspen Valley Hospital when not at the AHS track.

Aldridge, now one of the top rugby players in the region, brought something else with him when he moved to Aspen.

He brought something he said he learned at Notre Dame.

“Service first; help the next man,” Aldridge said, simply. “That’s my approach in general.”

And as someone who treasured his days in high school track and field, Aldridge saw his chance for service right in front of him at Aspen High School.

Word around Aspen, Aldridge said, was that there was a really quick, really fast young soccer player.

“I remember working with him in the eighth grade. You had thoughts then of his potential,” Aldridge said. “Now, it’s going to be up to him to put himself at the elite (NCAA) level.”

Abarca, happy to be on track after some bumpy adolescent times, said he can’t imagine what would have happened if he hadn’t met James Aldridge.

“From where I was to where I’ve come … there are all these doors that have been opening up for me,” Abarca said. “All the people I’ve met along the way. It’s a great experience.”

On the track and off, Abarca gives the nod to Aldridge.

“I feel like I can really relate to him in every sense, all around,” Abarca said. dstrode@aspentimes.com

Aspen High School sprinter Sunday Abarca (in red and black) makes a lasting impression on the crowd at the State Track and Field Championships in Lakewood.

Abarca won the state Class 3A 400-meter title for the second consecutive year, setting a state record of 48.54 seconds in the process. The AHS junior also finished third in 100-meter finals at state and third in the 200-meter finals at sun-soaked Jeffco Stadium.

VOYAGES

DESTINATION | INDIANAPOLIS

BEST OF INDIANAPOLIS: NEIGHBORHOODS, RESTAURANTS, ART SO, INDIANAPOLIS, are you an old Rust Belt city or are you the next Brooklyn?

Maybe a little of both — though locals bristled at a recent article in Bon Appetit magazine that compared Indy’s dining scene to Brooklyn’s hipster vibe.

The fact is, Indianapolis has its own identity, thank you very much, and shouldn’t be defined by what counts as cool elsewhere. Sure, there’s old-school Indianapolis: massive stone monuments that swallow blocks of downtown, divine corned beef sandwiches at Shapiro’s and shrimp cocktail with the world’s hottest horseradish at St. Elmo’s.

The Indy 500 celebrates its 100th race this year.

But don’t let the abandoned CocaCola bottling plant on Massachusetts Avenue fool you into thinking the city’s best days are behind it. Not only is “Mass Ave” hopping with small shops and creative eateries, but other corners of the city are bubbling with energy too.

You can see it along the Canal Walk, lined with artwork and popular with joggers, and even in the HGTV show “Good Bones,” where rundown houses in rebounding Indy neighborhoods are renovated by a mother-daughter team.

One thing’s for sure: Indy’s old nickname, Naptown, is now best used ironically, with a hashtag, because this city has woken up.

WHAT’S NEW Indy’s dining scene is exploding.

Milktooth serves breakfast and lunch, including a heavenly sour cream biscuit with bacon maple butter. At Black Market’s communal tables, adventurous palates will enjoy roasted marrow bones and beef tongue cocktail, while more conventional diners can have roasted half chicken and braised lamb shoulder. Tinker Street’s menu has four sections: small plates, botanical, land/ water and confections. Sweet pea cake is a favorite dessert.

The Indy 500 has long had a museum onsite, but fans will also want to see what’s new on Main Street in Speedway, the suburb where the racetrack is located. Have a craft beer at the Daredevil Brewing Co., or a pinot noir at The Foyt Wine Vault, owned by the family of race-car driver A.J. Foyt. For a wild ride, try Speedway Indoor Karting, which employees like to say is “not your grandfather’s go-kart.”

CLASSIC ATTRACTIONS Downtown, stroll or jog the Canal Walk and White River State Park. The Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art has a terrific exhibit about the Grand Canyon through Aug. 7. The massive neoclassical Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument, a symbol of the city, honors soldiers from the Civil War and other conflicts before

Ma y 26 - Jun e 1 , 2016

World War I. The nearby Indianapolis War Memorial honors World War I veterans. A memorial to the USS Indianapolis, a ship that was torpedoed in the Pacific during World War II, is at the north end of the Canal Walk.

At the Indianapolis Museum of Art, enjoy Georgia O’Keeffe, Edward Hopper and a mesmerizing lobby installation made from books donated by the public, suspended from the ceiling. Then head outside: Museum grounds offer formal gardens, rustic trails and a 100-acre park. Outdoor art includes “Funky Bones,” a giant skeleton made from benches that was featured in the book “The Fault in Our Stars,” written by Indy-born John Green; and “Park of the Laments,” a hauntingly serene spot with stone walls, a tunnel and grassy walled field.

Nearby Crown Hill Cemetery, one of the country’s largest cemeteries, has acres of hills, trees and statuary.

Notables buried here include Depression-era gangster John Dillinger.

The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis offers immersive, interactive exhibits on everything from dinosaurs to ancient Egypt and contemporary China.

TIPS Downtown offers many dining options and attractions, but if you’re heading to the art museum, Speedway

or far-flung funky neighborhoods, you’ll need wheels. Consider BlueIndy, a program where drivers pick up and drop off electric cars around the city.

Indianapolis is a major convention city. When 35,000 firefighters show up, hotel rooms are scarce and rates rise.

Indiana came under fire in 2015 for an anti-LGBT law, but many businesses around Indianapolis now welcome visitors with signs that say: “This business serves everyone.”

HANGING OUT Pork tenderloin is a thing here.

Find a food truck or try it at Edwards Drive-In, with 1950s decor and Elvis on the jukebox.

Indianapolis is dotted with tributes to one of its most famous sons, the late counterculture writer Kurt Vonnegut.

The Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library displays his typewriter, rejection letters and other intriguing mementos.

There’s also a restaurant named for his novel “Bluebeard” and a German beer garden, Rathskeller, in a building his grandpa designed.

A mural of Vonnegut towers four stories high over a parking lot on Massachusetts Avenue, but the street has many other attractions worth seeing. Near the mural, there’s the Ball & Biscuit (get the cocktail with the egg white!), Stout’s Footwear (founded in 1886) and “Ann Dancing,” a hypnotic animated neon sculpture. At the other end of Mass Ave., the Black Market restaurant faces Indy Reads Books, an independent bookstore that sells mostly donated used books to support a literacy program. In between are groovy gift shops, boutiques and Crimson Tate, a quilting store.

In the Fountain Square-Fletcher Place area, look for the “YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL” sign featured in the “Good Bones” show, along with funky restaurants and vintage stores.

The SOCIAL SIDE of TOWN

SEVERAL NEWS ITEMS of late have been cause for celebration. Part-time Aspen locals, most-of-the-time Amsterdam residents and otherwise world travelers Andreas Jungwirth and Corey Reardon were back in town in March. The reason? Friends of the pair hosted an engagement party in their honor. Albert Sanford generously provided the venue, his contemporary art gallery, Galerie Max. Lea Tucker and Megan Shean coordinated the drinks and dishes.

Another friend offered to DJ. Several dozen guests gathered in the happy couple’s honor, toasting to their upcoming nuptials in the Netherlands in September.

In anticipation of the Aspen Club’s next phase, which club owner & CEO Michael Fox refers to as Aspen Club 3.0, a final

fiesta took place in April as a farewell to the current iteration, which is being scraped and replaced with a brand new complex. Members, staff and friends were invited to the Mexican-themed closing party where they mingled and enjoyed a fun evening. Follow the development plans for the club, slated to open mid-2017, on their website, www.aspenclub.com.

When certain eras come to an end, it can be hard not to have bittersweet emotions — the April 2016 closure of Little Annie’s Eating House, established in 1972, being one of them. To mark the final days of the longtime Aspen establishment, they ran throwback specials all week. The bar and dining room was packed on closing night as locals ordered their last “shot and a

beer,” a combo Annie’s had been famous for among patrons. Plans for the space call for a renovation by Aspen Core Ventures, a partnership headed by developers Andy and Nikos Hecht.

ASPEN COMMUNITY THEATRE NEEDS YOU TO TELL ITS STORY 40TH ANNIVERSARY PRODUCTION TO INCORPORATE COMMUNITY STORYTELLING

JUST BEFORE MIKE MONRONEY went on stage as Harold Hill on opening night of Aspen Community Theatre’s 2009 production of “The Music Man,” his father died. Over the next two weeks, Monroney played the iconic con man and sang “(Ya Got) Trouble” and helped carry the show in honor of his dad.

“I had to come to terms with a way to internalize that which would allow me to continue to produce this show for the next two weeks,” Monroney recalls. “In some ways, it was easy because my father was a music educator and a jazz musician. He was my ‘music man.’”

Monroney’s experience of grief meeting art and community is one of the countless stories to emerge from Aspen Community Theatre since its founding in 1976. As the troupe celebrates its 40th anniversary, it is collecting stories about the lives touched by its shows. Monroney and music director David Dyer are aiming to weave those memories into an original anniversary show for the fall.

“We know people have met and married during the shows, they’ve had calamities, they’ve lost people, they’ve gained people,” Monroney says. “I want to know two things: one, what happened to you that was meaningful? And two, what did you see that amazed you?”

In March, the organization began soliciting stories through social media. They want to hear from audience members as well as those who have put on the shows, and they want to hear both the good and the bad (the working title for the show is “40 Years of Laughter and Tears”).

The idea is for Monroney and Dyer to put together a production stringing together 15 short stories about Aspen Community Theatre with 15 memorable musical numbers from past shows. It won’t be a chronological retrospective, but a portrait of what Aspen Community Theatre means to Aspen.

“I want to weave it into an emotional narrative,” explains Monroney.

And now, he and Aspen

ASPEN TIMES FILE PHOTOS

Community Theatre are on the hunt for stories, and trying to get beyond superficial memories into something more substantial.

“We’re struggling to get people to open up and dig in,” he says.

Ten years ago, for the 30th anniversary, the troupe restaged scenes and songs from over the years in a massive production.

“It was almost too much,” says Monroney. “It was fun, it was exciting, but it didn’t necessarily celebrate the sprit of why we do what we do.”

He wanted to try something different. The cultural boom of storytelling – in local events like Justice Snow’s Writ Large series and national phenomena like “The Moth” – offered Monroney a new way of thinking about commemorating four decades of community theater in Aspen. As a regular Writ Large contributor and through his work as a history coach at the Aspen

Historical Society, Monroney has immersed himself in different ways of telling stories in recent years.

“It’s fascinating and it’s wonderful,” he says. “The thing that’s surprising to a lot of people its that they have something to say. Everyone has a story – and I know this sounds schmaltzy – that is connected to their heart.”

So he and Dyer convinced Aspen Community Theatre producer Rita Hunter to let them anchor the anniversary show with people telling their own stories from over the years.

“I said, ‘Why not let people create it?’” he recalls. “It’s risky. It’s taking a chance. But let’s solicit every person who has ever been in a show, watched

a show, helped produce, been on the technical side – any level of involvement – and let’s find out how it affected them.” atravers@aspentimes.com

INTELLIGENT EXERCISE

by BARBARA BASBANES RICHTER for HIGH COUNTRY NEWS

BOOK REVIEW

‘THE WESTERN LONESOME SOCIETY’ DON’T BE FOOLED by the length of Robert Garner McBrearty’s debut novella — at a mere 124 pages, The Western Lonesome Society includes enough intrigue to fill books twice its size. Characters battle mental illness, kidnappings and Comanches to find their way home after wandering across the wild and lonely American Southwest.

Full of lost souls, this absurdist Western thriller (perhaps the only one of its kind) is a trip through the human subconscious, alternating between three increasingly peculiar storylines. Anchoring it all is Jim O’Brien, a professor obsessed with committing his family history to paper.

Two of his ancestors were abducted by Native Americans during a raid on their Texas cabin in 1870; Jim finds connection in the fact that he was also kidnapped as a child. All the characters, especially Jim, grope for purpose. But the professor’s vapid journal entries: “Spent night at Mesa

NOTEWORTHY ‘The Western Lonesome Society’ Robert Garner McBrearty 124 pages, softcover: $14.95 Conundrum Press, 2015

Verde … Saw big wild turkey. Had fun playing football with boys,” suggest that he realizes the futility of his quest for greater meaning. And somehow, that is freeing — absurdism in miniature.

Chapters alternate between the kidnapped brothers’ adventures in the 19th century, “Old West” part of the plotline, Jim’s own tale, and a third short story involving an escaped mental patient who moonlights as a stripper. In less capable hands, the literary device known as mise en abyme — images within images, or stories within stories — can quickly become incomprehensible, but McBrearty cut his teeth on crafting short stories for the North American Review and StoryQuarterly, among other publications.

His taut narratives are composed with precision and spare imagery. (Don’t expect any grand descriptions of the Texas frontier; the closest contender is a riff on the seedy strip-club-lined underbelly of

Austin.) That said, this is the kind of book that will attract fierce loyalists but leave others scratching their heads. So, caveat lector: Though entertaining, the narrative requires intense concentration.

As the book accelerates to its conclusion, the stories — vignettes, really — become more bizarre, forcing the reader to decide what is real and what are the ramblings of a delusional professor.

“We’ve all been taken — taken from our true home and it’s only a matter of getting back there!” Jim exclaims to his imaginary therapist. As long as the reader willingly suspends any expectation of realism, The Western Lonesome Society is a fascinating, hallucinatory trip down memory lane.
