CURRENTEVENTS BOOK

The new Aspen Art Battle pits painters against one another in a live painting competition at the Regal.

M. John Fayhee takes a close look at Coloradans and their dogs in his new book. He comes to Explore Booksellers on Monday, June 23.

M. JOHN FAYHEE has gone to the dogs. The longtime Mountain Gazette editor is following his recent books — “The Colorado Mountain Companion” and “Smoke Signals” — with one on high-country canines. The new book, “Colorado Mountain Dogs,” collects the best entries from the Gazette’s annual Mountain Dog issues, culled from thousands of submissions. It offers a dog’s eye view of mountain-town life and the backcountry, with photo-heavy profiles and stories on topics such as photographing and naming man’s best friend and essays like “Dog Trail Running Dangers” and “What Would

Jesus Do with a Wild Mountain Dog?” In short, punchy essays, writers from around the state share their best tales of mountain adventure and mishaps with their pups. It’s a fun read for local dog-lovers. The photos range from cute snow-frolicking shots to triumphant mountaintop pooch poses. The photo selection, Fayhee writes in his introduction, “contains a mix of both professional work and photography of folks who, like me, cross their fingers every time they pull their camera out of their pack.” Explore Booksellers hosts Fayhee for a reading and talk on the book Monday, June 23 at 5 p.m.

ART THE EPIC WEEKEND-LONG PARTY that is the Food & Wine Classic gets a new, artsy kickoff this year with the Aspen Art Battle. This new event, Thursday, June 19 at the Regal, pits emerging artists against one another in a live painting competition. They’re each allotted a 20-minute time frame in which to create a new piece of art. When time’s up, the audience votes on a winner. The party starts at 8 p.m., with competition beginning at 9 p.m. More info at www.facebook.com/aspenartsbattle.

THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

with JOHN COLSON

Trammell versus Brat — unknowns in the spotlight AS I APPROACHED the meeting room for the Carbondale Board of Trustees recently, a friend came up with a yard-wide grin on his face and a look of pure joy in his eyes, wanting to know if I was as happy as he was to learn that U.S. Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Virginia) had lost his primary race for reelection to a Tea Party challenger. I was in the midst of a minor internal crisis of some sort (the nature of which is not only unimportant but also incomprehensible to anyone but me), so my answers to my friend’s queries were vague, colorless and noncommittal, as I recall. He gave me a queer look, shrugged and walked away to regale someone else about how happy he was that the majority leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, a rigidly conservative hater of all things Obama and an unabashed big-business cheerleader, had gone down in such a riot of political conflagration. The June 10 primary upset in Virginia, while welcome news on so many levels, has me puzzled as I try to figure out whether this is a boon or a bomb for the nation’s political future. For one thing, the guy who dumped Cantor on the political garbage heap for the moment is professor David Brat, 49, a completely unknown quantity and a professor at the RandolphMacon College in Ashland, Va. The school is billed as a small, liberal arts institution near Richmond, in the heart of the old Confederacy. Founded in 1830, it has an enrollment of approximately 1,300 students, an academic staff of about 90 full-time instructors, and its athletic teams are called the Yellow Jackets, after the school’s colors of black and “lemon.” This calls for, presumably, a strategic playbook that involves stinging painfully and then flying away quickly. The school was founded by Methodists at an original site near Boydton, farther south in Virginia, a site that is said to be marked by the ruins of the old school buildings and a plaque explaining that the school had to move following the Civil War because invading yankees destroyed a nearby railroad terminus, the school’s link to the outside world. According to Wikipedia, it is the second-largest Methodist-run school in the U.S., and for some of its earliest defining moments the college’s first

president, one William Andrew Smith, delivered a number of pro-slavery lectures at the school, in 1856 and 1857. Today, the school has the new distinction of boasting not one, but two candidates for Cantor’s seat. Brat, a Republican schooled in economics and ethics, will be facing off against his compatriot, Democrat and Associate professor Jack Trammell, who teaches in the sociology department and recently penned a book, “The Richmond Slave Trade — The Economic Backbone of the Old Dominion.” Might have to see if our local library has a copy, so I can get to know a little more about this gentleman. A blurb about the pending political dust-up between the school’s two teachers is featured proudly on the front page of the school’s website (www.rmc.edu), and it’s clear the school plans to make the most of its notoriety to come. A bespectacled professor with a rather unusual last name, Brat certainly is not my idea of the typical Tea Party zealot. But, then again, I recall from my college days that merely being a professor does not necessarily make one an intellectual giant. So, I can’t wait to see what ol’ David has to say for himself once the campaign reaches fever pitch. As for his opponent, the national press is still seeking a handle on Jack Trammell, mostly because he’s a Democrat and as such he scarcely registered on Virginia’s political Richter scale until Cantor’s loss hit the headlines. In fact, some commentators already have written off Trammell’s chances, noting that the district is staunchly conservative and that Brat is expected to “breeze through” the coming electoral contest. It is entertaining to note, though, that a Washington Post blogger revealed recently that Trammell’s current publishing project is “a vampire novel”; that he has long had “an interest in vampires”; and that his literary work boasts a romance novel as well books on more weighty themes. Well, I guess it can’t be denied that love, lust and the spilling of blood (figuratively speaking, of course) stand high in the list of extracurricular activities in Washington, D.C., so if he wins out in the end, Trammell might feel right at home.

A mountain lion hide graces President Theodore Roosevelt’s porch.

MOUNTAIN LIONS

MOUNTAIN LION ENCOUNTERS WERE MUCH MORE COMMON IN LOWER ELEVATIONS. IN 1887 RANCHER C.H. JACOBS, WHO LIVED NEAR CARBONDALE, CAME TO ASPEN TO RECRUIT A MOUNTAIN LION POSSE BECAUSE A LION WAS KILLING HIS HORSES; FIVE HAD BEEN KILLED IN TEN DAYS. WHEN HE SPOTTED ONE SNEAKING UP ON A COLT WHILE HE WAS MILKING HIS COW, HE YELLED AND WAVED THE BUCKET TO SCARE OFF THE LION. IT DID NOT RUN AWAY, BUT HEADED TOWARD JACOBS, WHO JUMPED UP ONTO HIS FENCE AND CONTINUED TO WAVE THE BUCKET AND YELL. EVENTUALLY THE LION DEPARTED.

experience. Bermoudy, walking behind Spain, spied a lion about 20 feet from Spain. He raised his rifle, but was afraid to shoot because he might hit Spain. When the lion leapt toward Spain, Bermoudy shot it in the eye, killing it, but the lion continued on its trajectory and injured Spain, keeping him on crutches for some time after. That lion measured 9-feet, 5-inches from nose to tail. Killing mountain lions was a pastime in those days, so after the 1880s you don’t hear much about them close to Aspen. But not all of them were killed. Tom Lotta kept one he named Maggie inside his saloon, the establishment that later became the Red Onion. A few years later, Lotta bought two 8-month cubs to add to his menagerie and kept them in the basement. With so many men frequenting his establishment, hunters didn’t mistake lynx, of which there were plenty in the high country, for mountain lions. Newcomers to his saloon, however, had an interesting education. One, labeled a tenderfoot by the paper when it reported the incident, managed to step on Maggie’s tail without seeing her. When he saw what was underfoot he “jumped over the bar.”

continued to wave the bucket and yell. Eventually the lion departed. The area around Glenwood was known for mountain lions and Aspen’s hunters often ventured there to hunt them, as did President Theodore Roosevelt. Locals Thomas Spain and Fred Bermoudy had a sour

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. Reach him at redmtn2@ comcast.net.

When I was young I examined every inch of the lower half of Aspen

Mountain, off the roads and trails, searching for specimens. I discovered old mine tunnels; if I hadn’t known the mining history, I would have thought they were natural caves. Darkness and fear usually halted my exploration near their entrances. I was sure there might be bats or maybe even bears inside. I did not even think of the possibility of mountain lions; I had heard of no precedent. But there had been, as recently as the 1880s. When “Big” Mike Bennett entered his tunnel in the Pearl Pass area one day in 1886, he found a mountain lion feasting on his lunch. He grabbed his pick and killed it. Charles Armstrong had recorded in his diary two mountain lion sightings around his hunting area in the upper Castle Creek valley, so lions were not unheard of in that area, but Bennett was the first to have one occupy his tunnel. Lions must have ventured to the high country rarely; there are few accounts of sightings and interactions. The only mention other than Bennett’s story in The Aspen Times occurred when 15-year-old Earl Robinson killed a lion on Snowmass Mountain, also in 1886. That cat weighed 200 pounds and was 9 feet in length. Mountain lion encounters were much more common in lower elevations. In 1887, rancher C.H. Jacobs, who lived near Carbondale, came to Aspen to recruit a mountain lion

A TASTE OF THE GR APE

1963

ON SEPT. 13, 1963, the Aspen Daily Times reported on an upcoming wine party to be held in Aspen, stating that “both the French and German consuls in Denver are expected to join 125 Aspenites at a novel wine tasting party September 29 in the Golden Horn. Planned by part-time Aspenite Jack Davis of the wholesale liquor firm of Davis Brothers, Denver, the party is designed to promote the use of wine in this area. Davis indicated that several of the best French and German wines would be served at the party as well as some of the better American brands. A buffet prepared by Hubert Erhard, Golden Horn owner, is also planned.”

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

RIDE ON: FAMILY BIKE GEAR FOUR CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE of 10, a grown woman, and eight wheels spinning down the bike path — the choo-choo train that was my wife and kids on bikes this week was an entertaining sight. Our baby just turned 1-year old. He’s enthusiastic to ride, and so is the whole family. We’ve been testing gear this spring from a few companies that cater to moms and whole families looking to pedal and roll. Here’s a look at four stand-out items so far.

THULE COASTER It holds two kids inside with secure harnesses and connects to almost any bike with ease. We have long used trailers like the Coaster to haul children, beach toys, water bottles, snacks, towels, and other requisite items for a family outing. Bonus: The Coaster hinges to fold up small when not in use or packed away in a car. $379.95, www.thule.com

YUBA BICYCLES’ BODA BODA Made for toting kids or cargo, there’s a built-on rear rack topped with a bamboo “deck” on this unique bike. Children sit on the deck and hold on for a ride. (My kids love it!) Or, load the eight-speed Boda Boda up with groceries and gear — its rack and longer frame design can support large weights with no issue. $999, www.yubabikes.com

SCHWINN CREAM 2 A step-through steel frame with an integrated rack makes this women’s Schwinn bike a good around-town cruiser. Its big seat and relaxed handlebars are comfortable, though the seven-speed bike is not lacking in speed. It can haul a trailer or hold a bike seat on back. Equipped with a basket or panniers, it’s been a slick grocery-getter in our test this spring. $490, www.schwinnbikes.com

IBERT SAFE-T-SEAT We purchased one of these between-the-handlebars kid seats years ago when our daughter was tiny. It’s served her and three subsequent brothers, each one reveling in the “up front” view, close contact between the arms of a parent, and the wind in their hair as we ride. The brand recommends the seat for kids ages 1 to 4 years, or up to 38 pounds. $109.95, www.ibertinc.com

CHEF’S CLUB KICKS IT UP A NOTCH WE ALL KNOW ASPEN to be a great wine town that is home to many outstanding wine professionals. And this year, one of our very best, Master Sommelier Jonathan Pullis, made a transition that will significantly up the game for the entire wine community. Pullis was recently named CEO of Chefs KELLY J. Club by Food & Wine HAYES in the St. Regis Aspen, bringing not only his extensive knowledge of the restaurant industry to the fine-dining restaurant but also his palate and wine bona fides. Many of you likely know Jonathan from his long stint at the Little Nell Hotel where he led the wine program while studying to pass his Masters Sommelier exam in 2009. Last winter he spent a successful season helming the cellar at Casa Tua before being offered the top spot at Chefs Club this spring. “Chefs Club is one of those places that people in Aspen may know about but never been in,” Jonathan said about his new “home” as he sat at a table in front of a large window of wine on a recent spring afternoon. “But I think once people come in and give us a try, they will really love the experience. The chefs are great, and so are the bar and wine programs. I think people will especially like the outdoor patio in the summer. It is really a hidden gem.” Indeed. The secluded patio at Chefs Club is the perfect spot for a late-summer-afternoon repast. And a glass of Rosé is always available. “Summer is a great time for really crisp, fresh wines,” Jonathan said when I asked what he was drinking lately. “We have some dry Riesling on the list by the glass now. Chablis is always nice, and I’m enjoying some Txakoli,” a reference to the bone-dry, slightly sparkling wines from the Basque region of Spain that have become popular with wine aficionados who

NEED TO KNOW JONATHAN SUGGESTS: The Classic can be a daunting place with so many wines and so little time. But Jonathan has a few suggestions to get you through the weekend. HYDRATION, HYDRATION, HYDRATION. It’s not the heat — it’s the altitude. Jonathan suggests that you drink twice as much water as wine. MAKE A RESSIE Be sure that you eat while you are tasting. It is easy to get deep into the day without having a bite. Try the new Jimmy’s Bodega. PICK A STYLE AND STICK WITH IT. When tasting, don’t jump all over the place. Pick a style of wine, and get to know it a bit.

“I absolutely love Food & Wine,” he said. “Not only are all of the luminaries and rock stars of the world of food and wine in our town, but I also get to see so many of my friends.” And most importantly, his friends get to say hello to him in his new digs.

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE

O O D M AT T E R S FOOD FMATTERS

SWEET TALK WITH JOHNNY IUZZINI THE PASTRY CHEF SPITS WISDOM ON MENTORS, MOTORCYCLES, FOOD TATTOOS AND THE ULTIMATE SUGAR HIGH WHEN A CHEF pal introduced me to pastry whiz, television personality, and rockabilly heartthrob Johnny Iuzzini at the Sky Hotel during last year’s Food & Wine Classic, I bubbled with glee. We posed for dozens of silly photos with our faces stretched like taffy, and afterward I felt like I’d slammed multiple espressos and Hoovered a handful of Pixy Stix. Not too cool to charm common folk, Iuzzini, 39, is a rare celebrity. In his 20-year career, the Catskills native turned culinary superstar has worked for only the best: Daniel Boulud, François Payard, Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Named Outstanding Pastry Chef by the James Beard Foundation in 2006 and crowned one of the “10 Most Influential Pastry Chefs in America” by Forbes magazine, Iuzzini is also executive pastry chef and competition leader of the StarChefs.com InternaAMANDA tional Chefs Congress, held every October in New York City. RAE I phoned the free agent in Los Angeles, where he’s shooting two TV shows and scouting sites to launch a bean-tobar chocolate and coffee roastery, to chat about his career and return to Aspen as host of Friday’s third-annual Last Bite Dessert Party with fellow “Top Chef Just Desserts” alum Gail Simmons. As you’ll read, Iuzzini’s passion — for his profession and many pastimes — is as addictive as the sugar he sculpts. Aspen Times Weekly: First off, on your website you sell T-shirts, “Measuring Cups are For Sandcastles,” — care to elaborate? Johnny Iuzzini: They’re not precise! The back of the shirt says, “Switch to grams.” I’m a firm believer of working in weights. I don’t work in volume. “I’m a Grower Not a Shower” has a picture of a soufflé. I take what I do very seriously, but I try not to take myself too seriously.

ATW: Speaking of chemistry, is baking at altitude in Aspen — 7,890 feet above sea level — really a big deal? JI: I learned my lesson the hard way….

ATW: At 19 you interned for Daniel Boulud, whom you worked under for eight years. Then you were Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s executive pastry chef for a decade. What did you learn? JI: They’re great mentors. Daniel taught me how to be a better manager, to be considerate. He taught me how to go from being a cook to being a chef. JG taught me more about creativity: how to open my mind and think in a different way. I owe them a lot.

ATW: What happened? JI: I always knew you have to be careful with egg whites and chemical leaveners. It was my first time in Aspen. I did a cake with meringue folded into it. I baked 300 of ’em, as close to the event as I could, so they’d be super fresh, and they didn’t come out! I was screwed. I had to quickly make something else from scratch. Now I learn a lot from local pastry chefs. I’m not an expert on high-altitude baking, but I have some tricks.

ATW: Who has a better sense of humor? JI: Daniel is super-high energy, loves to laugh and joke. He wants to be the center of attention, whereas JG tends to be more shy and reserved. Daniel is the first guy on the dance floor — he’ll jump on a table, pop champagne, and spray the crowd. But he’s also a screamer. JG is not very social in that way, but he’s also not a screamer.

ATW: You’re a technician, but also an artist. What inspires you? JI: I go to a lot of food festivals, and symposiums (of ) chefs in the restaurant industry, where we exchange ideas, talk about our passions, what we’re working on, what we believe in. I’ve been to MAD in Denmark; Madrid Fusión in Spain; and others around the world. If I see something on a menu and I don’t know what it is, chances are, I’ll order it. I don’t do safe ordering. I order to learn. ATW: Tell me about your new book, “Sugar Rush” (Clarkson Potter), due out in September. JI: It’s the complete opposite of my first book, “Dessert FourPlay,” a snapshot of four-part dessert tastings I was doing at Jean-Georges. I wanted to put out a book focused on demystifying baking. Cooking people learn out of necessity, but baking is something of a luxury. Without having skill sets passed down from other generations, and without going to school, how are people supposed to learn? Cakes, sponges, doughs, ice creams — everything you can think of, we (Iuzzini with co-author Wes Martin) break it down. The worst thing is when someone spends time to make a cake, it doesn’t come out, and they don’t understand why. It’s deflating.

ATW: What’s a good example? JI: The reason why people tempered butter to room temperature back in the day was because they (mixed) it by hand. Nowadays people have 600-watt KitchenAid mixers. So most people over-mix their product — it gets greasy or doesn’t have a nice crumb. They don’t understand that they’re breaking the emulsion. These are mistakes I’ve made, lessons I’ve learned. At the end of the book, we take parts from each chapter and show you how to combine them to create a diverse pastry menu. ATW: I recall that you have a lot of ink, too. JI: I do have a lot of tattoos all over my body, but they’re mostly related to hard times in my life. I’m not a fan of food tattoos. ATW: Which one is most significant? JI: On my right arm is a half sleeve of a phoenix. In that year, my mom was fighting cancer, my dad had heart attack and survived, my fiancée left me, and I got audited by the IRS. But I had a lot of great friends and read books to keep my mind positive. They kept referencing a phoenix: Born from ashes, comes back strong. When my mother passed away, I got a griffin on my left arm. My mother was a wildlife rehabilitator. We grew up on a lot of land in upstate New York, and any animal that was shot or hurt in the wilderness or couldn’t take care of itself would come to her. She’d raise it until it could be released or keep it for the duration of its life. In medieval times, all knights had griffins on their shields. It’s got bright green eyes like she does. She’s my guardian, even now.

ATW: Last year you created a 1950s-style soda jerk station for the Last Bite Dessert Party. What can you share about the event on Friday? JI: Our party is, hands down, the best party in Aspen. This year is a Caribbean motif. There are costumes involved. It starts with sweets and cocktails at 10 o’clock at night … then it turns into a crazy dance party! Everybody leaves sweating and amped up on sugar and alcohol. It’s so much fun. ATW: Why save room for dessert? JI: Sweets tap an emotional nerve that brings us back to our childhood. Maybe you loved chocolate cake as a kid, or strawberry shortcake was your thing where you grew up. People don’t eat desserts because they’re hungry. They eat them because they wanna reward Last Bite Dessert Party themselves. It’s like a treasure at the end Sweets by Johnny Iuzzini of the meal. Cohosted by Gail Simmons

ATW: A Ducati owner needs one! Since leaving Jean-Georges in 2011 you’ve cruised more than 10,000 miles cross-country and are taking racing lessons on a Honda CBR. Any similarities between motorcycles and pastry arts? JI: You have to be very focused, in the moment. On a motorcycle, so much can go wrong, between other drivers not paying attention or deer jumping across the road or potholes. You’re using both hands and both feet at all times. Your mind is acute. Same thing with pastry: You have to be aware of so many things, but it’s about precision also.

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

by SAMANTHA JOHNSTON

MAKE IT 2 limes cut into wedges Coarse salt for glass rims 12 ounces homemade limeade (see recipe below).** 12 ounces chilled blanco or reposado tequila 6 12-ounce bottles of chilled beer (I prefer Dos Equis Lager or Leinenkugel Summer Shandy)

STEAMBOAT ‘SAMBRERO’

Mix all in a pitcher with ice. For a fun summer bite, add some fresh jalapeños ** If you prefer a sweeter drink, increase the amount of limeade or increase the sugar in your homemade limeade recipe.

Years ago, I got the nickname “Sambrero,” thanks to my affinity for tasty margaritas. The one I like to make screams summer, with homemade limeade as its star ingredient — the beauty of this homemade limeade,

HOMEMADE LIMEADE 1 cup fresh squeezed lime juice (about 8–10 limes) 4 cups water 3/4 cup simple syrup (you can use granulated sugar instead, but reduce to about 1/2 cup)

though, is that it also makes for a fantastic mojito base and drinks ridiculously well with vodka. Really, it makes all the difference so don’t mess it up; use fresh limes — no matter how tempted you are to avoid the squeeze, don’t use substitutes. You’ll be sorry. Also, use a blanco or reposado tequila. Hornito’s is about $25 a bottle and it works like a charm. Don’t use cheap tequila, yellow tequila or any tequila that isn’t 100 percent agave. If you do, you’re shortchanging your margarita and your guests. Don’t be that hostess, and if you are, don’t call your drink the Steamboat ‘Sambrero.” Libations was created by beloved Aspen Times’ publisher Gunilla Asher, who died June 2 after a brave battle with cancer. Gunilla wrote her column without any real training, other than in the spirit of “she is not a connoisseur, but she is heavily practiced.” We intend to carry on the crusade in her memory, so email jmcgovern@aspentimes.com with what cocktails you’re mixing, what libations you’re drinking, what tastes have tempted your tastebuds and we’ll share them with our readers. Cheers — to Gunner!

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

Top on the millennial must-do list this summer: Thursday night concerts in Snowmass (left) and a leap into the Devil’s Punchbowl.

THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN SUMMER HIGH ASPEN/SNOWMASS WAKES UP FOR THE SUMMER THE FEELING PROBABLY first hit me last July. I was at the Deaf Camp Picnic in Snowmass with some friends and family. The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band was capping off the night with a tribute to John Denver’s “Rocky Mountain High.” The air was crisp, the temperature was perfect, and the sun was hanging on for one last moment BARBARA before it made its PLATTS way behind the distant peaks. Right then, I was flooded with two overwhelming feelings — one bliss and the other anxiety. Bliss because I felt so lucky to live here in these surroundings. Anxiety because I knew I had found one of the best places on earth and I was quite sure I’d never be able to leave it. That same feeling returned last Saturday evening at the Mammoth Festival in Snowmass. My friends and I hurried around from brewery to brewery, soaking in as much Colorado beer as possible before the 5 p.m. cut off. A bit of sorrow filled the air when all of us patrons were told we would no longer be served beer samples. But then the music started and everyone settled in for the evening, knowing that the best P H O T O S B Y B A R B A R A P L A T T S ( T O P ) A N D LY N N G O L D S M I T H

was yet to come, knowing that the season was just beginning. One of the best parts of living in Aspen is that the favorite season is always the one we’re currently experiencing. So right now, the greatest season is here. And I’m not sure about everyone else, but I couldn’t be happier. There are many ways to enjoy summer in Aspen, but the season goes by so quickly that if one

doesn’t make a concentrated effort to experience it, they may miss the best parts. I’ve already shared my favorite things about Aspen in the summer, but I was eager to find out what made this season special for others my age. So, in a formal millennials survey (or just a lot of mass texts and conversations with Aspen friends) I found out what others enjoy about this time of year. The

things that make them feel as lucky as I did while listening to “Rocky Mountain High” at Deaf Camp or sampling tasty brews at the Mammoth Festival. The answers were plentiful, but I was able to narrow it down to 10 Aspen experiences that encompass the best parts of summer. 1.) Barbecuing with friends 2.) Dunking your head in the Roaring Fork River after a long day of work 3.) Thursday night concerts in Snowmass 4.) Sunday nights at the Music Tent 5.) Climbing a fourteener 6.) Hiking to Crested Butte 7.) Jumping into the Devil’s Punchbowl 8.) Tubing east of Aspen on the Roaring Fork River 9.) Hiking Aspen Mountain and hanging out at the top on the weekends 10.) First Fridays in Carbondale These are just a sampling, but hopefully they provide a solid starting point. See you out there!

CLASSIC BITES FOR A SUCCESSFUL CLASSIC CELEBRATED CHEFS. Master sommeliers. Entrepreneurial restaurateurs. No, we’re not talking about the cognoscenti in town this weekend for the annual Food & Wine Classic in Aspen. We’re talking about the folks who make our little mountain town a world-class food and wine destination -each and every day. Here, we’ll take you for a taste of what’s cooking, shaking and baking at local restaurants, cafés and bars, all just a few steps away from the Classic’s iconic white tents. by LINDA HAYES photos by AUBREE DALLAS

When the crowds line up on the Mill Street mall this weekend, it will likely be as much to snatch a patio table at the new Jimmy’s Bodega as to stream into the Food & Wine Classic’s Grand Tasting Pavilion in Wagner Park next door. Opened by Jimmy Yeager at 11:30 a.m. on Monday -after a Facebook countdown that had everyone clamoring to get in -- it more than fills the gap left when Pacifica exited the high-profile space last fall. Like Yeager’s popular Jimmy’s An American Bar & Restaurant, which opened during the Food & Wine Classic in ‘97, Bodega is an instant hit. Not surprisingly, cocktails are key. The must-do? A BOC on BFIC. Translation: A Bucket of Cocktails on Jimmy’s signature Big F-ing Ice Cubes. For each, five perfect, house-made craft cocktails (a Roaring Fork made with Woody Creek Distillery Rye and lemongrass, and a Vida Buena made with Del Maguey Vida, Aperol and sweet vermouth, for instance) are bottled to order and arrive at the table ready to pour. Spritzes, made classically with amaro or vermouth and served in wine goblets, are uncomplicated summer refreshers. More than 100 wines, champagnes and sparklers, and as many as 30 of Jimmy’s favorite mezcals and tequilas round things out. For eats, chef de cuisine Bryan Nelson (formally of Pacifica) offers a full raw bar, Peruvian, Vallarta and Ecuadorian-style ceviche, and seafood-driven tacos, salads and pan-roasts. Line up now.

R&R Next to the dancing water fountain on the Mill Street mall, locals Scott and Carly Weber’s R&R (short for Rest and Relaxation) is shaking things up in the former Above the Salt locale. To get ready for this week’s opening, the Webers put out calls to bartenders, chefs and other hospitality pros they’ve known around town. The couple also own The Regal nightclub and, over the last twelve years, Scott has worked front-of-the-house positions at restaurants such as Campo de Fiori, Matsuhisa and the former Lulu Wilson and Elevation. Daytime, and well into the night, R&R’s patio, christened the Veuve Clicquot Lounge, is a comfortable gathering place complete with loungers sporting Veuve’s signature orange cushions, to pop bottles of bubbly. Inside, you can hop a barstool, or grab a seat at one of the tufted banquettes, for cocktails and an evolving menu of share-plates, salads and other healthy fare.

SUSHI WAG ON

N E W YOR K P IZ Z A Pizza-lovers craving the real deal need only to zero in on New York Pizza on the Hyman Avenue mall. Half-way up the “Stairway to Pizza” (so dubbed by Aspen Times editor Rick Carroll with reference to Led Zeppelin’s famous “Stairway to Heaven”), your mouth will start to water. By the time you spot “pizza-man” Earl Rodgers pulling a 24-inch “monster” pie out of the oven, you’ll be in full drool. The situation is easily remedied by simply pointing at one of the half-dozen pies you can access by-the-slice, and then scarfing it down along with a local brew. Better yet, you can order a whole pizza of your own and do the slice-and-a-brew thing while you wait, at a table overlooking the mall. Rodgers owns the place with Kevin Jones, and while the pair hail from Louisiana, both are smitten with New York-style pies. Theirs are hand-tossed and thin-crusted, and cut into generous slices -- perfect for a NYC fold. Purists go for a traditional cheese pie, but you can add everything from pepperoni to anchovies to pineapple. Other favorites are the White Garden (tomatoes, spinach, red onions, feta and garlic pesto) and The Works, which speaks for itself. Meatball heroes and eggplant Parmesan sandwiches are tasty, too. The topper? The doors stay open until 2 a.m.

In the realm of ‘what’ll they think of next,’ town’s iconic Popcorn Wagon, on the corner of Mill and Hyman, is now home to one of Aspen’s ultimate pop-ups, Corey Leland’s Sushi Wagon. A long-time sushi chef at Matsuhisa Aspen, Leland partnered with the owners of R&R next door to get the wagon back up and running after Mill Street Melts went wheels-up after the winter season. Step up to the window for spicy tuna, California, soft-shell crab, shrimp tempura and other cut, or hand-rolled, sushi rolls to go. Snocone cups of spicy shishito peppers are a must-try and there’s sweet Bubble Gum soda and Inari sushi for the kids. ‘Natch, the popcorn popper’s back in action, too.

HOPS CU LTU RE A short stroll along the cobblestones on the Hyman Avenue mall, HOPS Culture taps heavily into the craft beer craze, and the tipplers at the outdoor bar and beer garden couldn’t be happier. Owner Bill Guth tasted over 2,000 domestic and imported beers and ciders for the 200 or so he selected for HOPS -- from Alaskan Smoked Porter from the Alaskan Brewing Company in Juneau to Wychwood Ginger Beard from the Wychwood Brewing Company in the United Kingdom -- and he continues the process daily. As of this writing, 30 were available on tap, and 192 in bottles or cans. Inside, you can ogle the impressive lineup in the beer cooler, and peruse the menus and tap handles for the rest, before quaffing your pick at the industrial wood-topped tables or bar. For nibbles, try chef Sarah Helsley’s Little Piggies, Wagyu beef “dogs” from nearby Emma Farms Cattle Company wrapped in pretzel bread.

AN NE TT E’S MOUN TA IN BA KE SHOP

RE D FOX FROZ EN YOGU RT Cash only. Grab a cup. Fill it up. Weigh it. Pay it. The “rules of Red Fox” are as simple as that, and the concept of the little corner stand on the Hyman Avenue mall side of the dancing fountain is right on the money. Stop by for a palate-cleansing, self-serve cup of 100% natural Colorado frozen yogurt in daily flavors ranging from vanilla and chocolate to cookies ‘n cream, as well as an occasional raspberry lemonade sorbetto. Bins of toppings -- granola and almonds if you’re watching your waist (doubtful this weekend), gummy bears and M&Ms if you’re not -- allow for custom creations.

A bakery in miniature, with a head-spinning, you’ll-want-them-all assortment of cookies, macarons, pastries, breads and other treats, Annette’s is an Aspen gem. While 40-year local Fino Docimo bakes in back, his wife, Annette, minds the shop, doling out tips on when to best pick up glazed, chocolate and custard-filled donuts (Thursdays at 4:00 p.m.; call ahead if you need a batch), a take on cronuts, called snonuts -- croissant dough stuffed with custard and topped with lemon glaze (Fridays at noon), buttery chocolatefilled kouigin-amann (daily at 10:30-10:45 a.m.) and soft pretzels (Saturdays at 4:00 p.m.). On the savory side, Annette’s does a brisk sandwich business as well. Pulled pork and the “secret sandwich,” which regulars know is a New Orleans-style muffaletta, are favorites. Daily specials are noted on Facebook and twitter. Sweet.

VICTORIA’S ESPRESSO, WINE BAR & GOURMET GRAZING “Aussie, Aussie, Aussie - Oi, Oi, Oi.” This weekend marks the fifth anniversary of this authentic, Australia-focused café on the corner of Durant and Galena, and it continues to get better and better with age. Owners Victoria Haveland and John Beatty, from Vancouver and Sydney, respectively, see to it that “brekkie” specialties -- bacon, a “gooey” free-range egg and bbq sauce-mayo on Turkish flatbread (the ultimate hangover cure, according to Haveland), vegemite on toast, and spiced veal sausage rolls, remain true to form. But they’re also always adding to the mix. This summer brings Matcha Green Tea (the ultimate antioxidant) smoothies and lattés, house-made 12-spice Chai, baked beans on toast with poached eggs, Bircher Muesli made with caramelized apples, almonds and fig compote, and gluten-free orangepear-coconut polenta cake. Short blacks and flat whites rule on the coffee board. Later in the day, stop by for crostini and gazpacho, or a pour of one of Beatty’s hand-picked wines and spirits at the Sipping Bar.

Now, don’t you wish you lived here?

VOYAGES

ESCAPE ARTIST | SANTA FE

BOYS AWAY TO SANTA FE MY HUSBAND AND I agree on most things, but one thing we do not is Paris. He argues Paris is best left to the adults, and that bringing the kids might ruin our next trip there. With so much to see and taste, I couldn’t imagine leaving the kiddos behind. But the argument goes on, leaving me to wonder, are there places in the world — safety aside — that are best left to adults only? Santa Fe, N.M., is one of the places where some may side with Brian. The thirdAMIEE WHITE BEAZLEY largest art market in the country — only behind New York and Los Angeles — Santa Fe is a mass of galleries on Canyon Road and museums nearby in the Plaza; places that, as any parent can tell you, could potentially be a disaster for kids. But, like previous arguments I’ve made for kids and fine dining, I say this about adult-adored locations: If kids never have experiences not tailor-made for kids, how will children ever learn to become welltraveled and curious adults? Life is not all Disney World and Legoland, right? So last week I said to hell with

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

Jun e 19 - Jun e 25 , 2014

the adult-only-destinations theory, packed the kids into the car and embarked on the just-long-enough, six-hour drive from Aspen to Santa Fe to give the city a go. Here are five things I learned while spending a successful weekend in Santa Fe with kids: 1. Book a Room Downtown: Although my children have grown out of the napping stage, at ages 8 and 5, they still need a little downtime during a hectic day. We booked our stay at the Rosewood Inn of the Anasazi, a beautiful and recently updated boutique hotel, just steps from Santa Fe’s Plaza. With historic charm on the outside but with warm, neutral colors and clean lines in the remodeled guest rooms, everything in Santa Fe was at our fingertips just steps away from the hotel’s front door. The staff welcomed the kids with plush robes and puzzles (which they actually assembled several times a day — hallelujah!), cookies and Navajolegend bedtime stories during turndown. We opted for breakfast at the hotel each morning, which I highly recommend. Not only was it delicious, but who in their right mind wants to try and find a breakfast spot in a new town when the kids are famished? There is no

swimming pool here, which meant we spent our hours out and about, exploring, eating and doing, instead of swimming. And when things got too hot, or their legs started to tire, we were able to quickly return back to the cool, quiet comfort of our room to recharge before the next item “to-do.” (rosewoodhotels.com/ en/inn-of-the-anasazi-santa-fe) 2. Hit the New Mexico History Museum First: From the architecture to the colors to the vibe, everything in Santa Fe is different. To get ourselves acquainted with the city and to help us understand the Native American history on which we were treading, on our first morning we walked across the street from the Rosewood to the Palace of Governors and the New Mexico History Museum. From the ancestral pueblos to the Spanish colonists to nuclear scientists, the kids and I strode through three levels of fascinating firsthand accounts of the Santa Fe experience. With dozens of multimedia and interactive exhibits from which to choose, the kids’ curiosities were piqued, and the questions they generated from this morninglong exploration

continued throughout the trip. (nmhistorymuseum.org) 3. Schedule a Docent at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum: One of the reasons for our Santa Fe trip was to see the place where the artist Georgia O’Keeffe spent so much of her life and where she died. You see her work in the landscape of Northern New Mexico, in the sunsets and the flowers of the Southwest. So of course, we had to visit the museum dedicated to her work. At the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, we were led through the current exhibits by a docent, Mary. She provided much-needed insight into the artist’s personal life and her years of prolific painting. She was also able to answer questions right away when the kids needed to know something immediately — like where the bathrooms were. Art museums can be tough for kids, but this museum houses a manageably sized collection, and the staff even armed the kids with sketch pads before touring. When my conversations with Mary became too boring for the little artists, they were able to sit and draw, inspired by the

work of O’Keeffe all around them. (okeeffemuseum.org) 4. Encourage the Kids to Try New Foods: I couldn’t wait to get my hands on some green and red chile while I was in Santa Fe. But because this was a solo-mom trip, and I couldn’t handle extended whining over food alone, I tried to balance the dining choices between new and exciting and tried and true. Around the corner from our hotel was The Shed, a popular courtyard eatery shaded by sprawling trumpet vines. I got my red chile — smothering two delicious blue-corn tortilla and cheese enchiladas — while my elder son ordered just the cheese, grilled. (The youngest was having a “misunderstanding,” as he later called it, and chose to skip lunch to prove an unknown point.) Of course I offered some of my enchilada and red chile to my son, who at first turned it down. But by the end of the meal he began to dip his tortilla chips into the sauce, first wondering how hot it was, why it was so red, and how it was made. One small step for Mom, one giant leap for picky eaters everywhere. This was not the end of the experiments in Southwestern dining. On the final night in town, we donned our blazers and ate at The Patio

at the Rosewood Inn at the Anasazi. A great regional meal in a beautiful setting. But the boys’ desserts were enormous and had them needing to run after the final course, which they did — through the kitchen to meet the chef, Juan Bochenski. They were (this time) escorted by the unbelievably patient maître d’, Thomas, who kindly escorted them while I finished my Sancerre. We all left happy. (sfshed.com; rosewoodhotels.com) 5. Shop for Art, Shop for Bear Claws: I was pleasantly surprised at the interest my kids showed in galleries. After a brief reminder on how to look with their eyes and not touch with their hands, we walked through several galleries with works that were both fragile and expensive. Some gallery owners seem pleasantly surprised to have kids looking at the work and personally showed them around, while others were visibly annoyed by our presence, but it didn’t matter. We had a chance to see artists from around the country, and most were worth seeing. On the last day, the kids chose a gallery that featured cartoons from artist Chuck Jones. They loved the whimsical drawings

of characters that they and I both recognized and loved. It reminded us that “art is everywhere and everything,” and it doesn’t have to hang on pristine walls to qualify. The kids even wanted to shop! Armed with $5 each, after several visits to jewelry stores and tchotchke shops, they chose a bear-claw necklace and a handmade bracelet from the Indian Art Market, both pieces you will see them wearing proudly around home even today.

The sights and flavors of Santa Fe, N.M., beckon — for both adults and kids (but heed these tips for traveling with the whole family.)

ARTS&ENTERTAINMENT

MUSIC/ART/FILM/LITERATURE

by ANDREW TRAVERS

‘BUFFALO’ BILL OF GOODS EQUAL PARTS MYSTERY, comedy and bromance, “American Buffalo” closes Thunder River Theatre’s 19th season in Carbondale. The early David Mamet drama, written in 1975, had a Broadway run in 1977 and was adapted into a film in 1996 with Dustin Hoffman, Sean Nelson and Dennis Franz. It’s set in a Chicago junk shop, where three small-time hustlers — Donny (Owen O’Farrell), Teach (Thunder River executive artistic director Lon Winston) and Bobby (Nick Garay) — conspire to steal a coin collection. As the play begins, Donny has sold a buffalo nickel, which he thought was worthless, for $90. He soon suspects it’s worth far more and begins plotting to get it back. With this premise, the play delves into themes ranging from the American dream to manhood, greed, loyalty and friendship. Its characters are doomed dreamers — desperate and inarticulate losers in the rat race. Yet their bond is familial, notes the local production’s director, Valerie Haugen. “These men are very much alone, but they’ve made this family,” she says. “It’s a bit like a mom, a dad and

their son — only it’s two dads and a heroin-addict son.” Thunder River has given serious drama a permanent home in Carbondale, though they produce comedies, too. Recent productions have included an unexpurgated version of Eugene O’Neill’s “Long Day’s Journey Into Night” and Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons.” It’s heavy stuff, and it’s difficult stuff to do well. But the company — led by executive directors Haugen and Winston — reliably pulls it off. This is Thunder River’s first time staging a work by David Mamet, the Pulitzer Prize-winning master playwright also behind modern classics like “Glengarry Glen Ross” and “Speed-the-Plow.” His dialogue is legendary — and legendarily difficult to nail for actors — for its precise off-kilter usage, mid-sentence tense changes and overseasoning of profanity. “It looks like it’s without order, but it is very ordered,” Haugen says.

“He gives it this rhythm that’s really incredible.” Winston, a four-decade stage veteran, says getting it right ain’t easy. “In 40 years, it’s probably the most difficult play I’ve ever had to memorize,” he says. Fellow cast members O’Farrell and Garay both did impressive work in “Long Day’s Journey” as James and Edward Tyrone, respectively. Aspenites also will recognize Garay as Romeo from last summer’s Shakespeare in the Park production of “Romeo and Juliet.” Much of Mamet’s precise mix of vulgarity and vernacular phrasing is also written in Shaekspearean iambic pentameter. Mamet fashions the characters’ rough linguistic fumblings and four-letter word combinations into a stylized street verse that’s unlike most anything else in theater. Haugen calls it “the poetry of the profane.” The harsh language is just over-thetop enough to feed the humor of the

play. Its overload of four-letter words, and combinations thereof, may shock the audience at first, Haugen notes, but as it crosses the line it gets funny. “It’s not funny until you hear it the 20th time,” Haugen says of Mamet’s exhaustive use of the “c-word.” Also like the bard’s work, notes Haugen, Mamet’s play doesn’t include specific stage direction, allowing the dialogue to force the action. In rehearsal, Haugen and her cast have been finding those stage movements through Mamet’s dialogue. “It’s all there to be discovered in the text,” Haugen says. “It’s been an organic process.”

BOOK REVIEW

NOTEWORTHY

‘CONVERSATIONS WITH BARRY LOPEZ’ FOR 40 YEARS NOW, Barry Lopez has been at the center of the national and international conversation about social justice, and the fate of humanity and the Earth. In “Conversations with Barry Lopez,” the National Book Awardwinning writer’s thought, precision and intelligence are brought gracefully to the page in three candid personal interviews with his longtime friend, William E. Tydeman, a writer and archivist at Texas Tech University’s Southwest Collections/Special Collections Library. The book also features an introduction to Lopez’s life and work, 19 black-andwhite photographs and a comprehensive bibliography. Tydeman’s close relationship with Lopez allows the two men to travel through the kind of conversational territory that begins in restraint and formality and leads into the country of the heart. If Lopez’s manner appears rehearsed, it also lacks pretense; rather, it reflects his careful and heartfelt by TONY ORBACH / edited by WILL SHORTZ

consideration of his art and of the world in which we all live. In his introduction, Tydeman explores Lopez’s ideas about “individual genius.” In facing what he calls “the disquieting dimensions of (his) own ego,” Lopez strongly believes that “humanity has more often benefited from the genius of the community than from the genius of the individual.” Anyone praised for great work in any field, Lopez attests, must admit that achievement is not possible without the community’s support. Lopez goes on to speak about the environmental and social challenges of our age, which he calls “a singular time of concern.” In America today, we talk a lot about finding and destroying the enemy, whatever it is. Lopez says bluntly: “I don’t believe there is an enemy. … If you spend your energy trying to identify an enemy, and you track down this putative enemy, and you kill him, he will rise again in another quarter, in another costume.” One of the most engaging sections

of the book is poet and archivist Diane Warner’s 43-page list of Lopez’s published works. It features notes by both Lopez and Warner that offer a deeper understanding of the writer’s path and development. A longtime editor and friend once said of him: If there is anyone in America writing better than Barry Lopez, I don’t know who it could be. There is wisdom in this little book, because there is so much wisdom in the man, in fact in these two men, who open the door for each other to think and feel and then invite the reader in to join them. The book encourages all of us to ask the same question Lopez asks himself: “Do I help make the world safe and beautiful by what I do?”
