THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

by ANDREW TRAVERS

THEATER THE NONPROFIT Theater Masters is challenging locals to write a play in just a few days.

The organization, behind the acclaimed annual Take 10 festival in Aspen and New York, is hosting its second annual Meeting on the Page workshop.

Theater professionals and playwrights are working with 10 local students and their parents or guardians from Aug. 25 to 27 in an intensive workshop that will guide young writers through the process of penning a 10-minute play. The class, funded by the Francis Foundation, is free.

“We hope that it will encourage collaboration between parent and child, communication as well as allow an opportunity for parents to have a better understanding of what their child is interested in,” says playwright and director Melisa Annis. “The goal is to not only nurture the young playwright, but to introduce a new element of support to that playwright’s life by having their parent involved.”

Their work will culminate in an evening of performance on Sunday, Aug. 27, at the Mountain Chalet. There, Roaring Fork Valley actors will perform the new works in their premiere stagings.

Sunday’s performance is free and open to the public. It is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

More information at www.theatermasters.org.

They’re bringing the new sound to Belly Up Aspen on Saturday, Aug. 26. Tickets are $18 to $30, available at the Belly Up box office and www.bellyupaspen.com.

FOOD CHEF EDUARDO GARCIA is cooking up something special for Mountainfilm in Aspen.

FISH TALES

1940 ASPEN

ON MAY 23, 1940, The Aspen Times announced the imminent start of the fishing season, noting that “Saturday, May 25, will be a national holiday so far as a good share of the population of Aspen is concerned as that is the opening day of the shortened 1940 fishing season and most anglers are determined to waste no time in getting started at their favorite sport. Considerable interest has been aroused in this community by the big fish contest that is being staged by Mike Magnifico and it is believed some very nice specimens will be brought in to be measured. One man has already wagered he will land a two and one-half pound trout the first day. Get your share of the fish, but abide by the law and there will be plenty of fish for everyone.� The photograph above shows Mike Magnifico (left) comparing fish stories with another man, circa 1950.

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

WEAR IT: PATAGONIA LAUNCHES WORKWEAR CLOTHING THAT LASTS a lifetime of manual labor and has “no break-in time” before you wear it: That is the big claim Patagonia makes with its just-released line of workwear.

The company uses new materials but a known look for the shirts and pants in the line. The brand touts the workwear made with “iron forge hemp” canvas is more durable, abrasion resistant and more comfortable off the rack than conventional canvas clothing.

Patagonia’s blend is made of 55 percent industrial hemp. Beyond that, 27 percent of the fabric is recycled polyester, and 18 percent is organic cotton.

The line comprises 17 products built for hard work at a price that goes toe-to-toe with stalwart brands like Carhartt.

At the core of any workwear line is the pant. Patagonia offers the Iron Forge Hemp Canvas Double Knee Pants for men and women. For anyone who has worn Carhartt doubleknee dungarees, these should look pretty familiar, although the fabric is different.

They retail for $80 from Patagonia, which is about $30 more than a comparable, USA-made Carhartt.

At the high end of the price range for the line sits the men’s and women’s

Iron Forge Hemp Canvas Barn Coat.

Both cost $200.

Made from the same burly material, these coats have 92 percent recycled polyester insulation, YKK zippers, and doubled fabric panels on the shoulders to increase durability and add comfort while carrying loads.

Not everything gets the hemp treatment. The men’s Fog Cutter Sweater, for example, is 70 percent recycled wool, 25 percent recycled nylon, and 5 percent other fiber. It costs $100.

The women’s Tin Shed Jacket, $150, is made of polyester with a fleece lining and DWR-treated face fabric.

This is an interesting direction for Patagonia. Workwear is a large market, but it remains to be seen if America’s craftsmen and women will open their wallets a little more for an established player in a new game.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

The columnist’s parents watching the start of the eclipse through solar eclipse glasses.

TOTALLY IN TOTALITY

A JOURNEY TO WYOMING FOR THE SOLAR ECLIPSE IN THE WEEKS LEADING up to Monday’s solar eclipse, I must admit, I was not buying into the hype. I was tired of hearing and reading news stories about it.

People were driving thousands of miles to “get into the totality zone.” Hotels in towns in rural parts of America were being rented out for 15 times the normal price. And traffic was forecasted BARBARA PLATTS to be absolutely horrendous anywhere near the totality zone. The buildup just seemed overwhelmingly unnecessary, and I didn’t think the journey was worth the effort.

For those who still may not know, the totality zone during an eclipse is the area where the moon goes fully in front of the disk of the sun. At this point, the atmosphere on Earth goes mostly dark, and humans can stare at the sun without harming their eyes. For this eclipse, the zone of totality went from Oregon to South Carolina. It was a 70-milewide area in 14 states. All 50 states would get to view some of the eclipse, but only in the zone of totality would the moon fully cover the sun. For us Coloradans, the closest states for the best viewing were Nebraska and Wyoming. Still, I didn’t see the point in going. It

P H OTO B Y M AT T F E R R O

seemed like a lot of work for not very much reward.

However, two days before the eclipse, I received a call from my mother. She had just read an article in the New York Times that talked about being in the totality zone during the eclipse. Apparently, in the zone, all goes quiet. Cows run away, birds stop singing, crickets start chirping, pigs begin to fly …

OK, maybe not the last one, but you get the idea. After reading more about it, my mom and stepdad were determined to get to totality for the eclipse. She wanted my boyfriend, our two dogs and me to join. My mother has never been one to get excited about natural phenomenons, so, in slight shock, I told her we would go with her. I figured if she was so determined, there must be something to all of this.

So, at 4 a.m. on Monday morning, two parents, a boyfriend, two puppies and myself headed north to Wyoming to reach totality. Once we hit Interstate 25, it became very obvious that we weren’t alone on this venture.

Many experts are predicting this was the most watched eclipse in history, with 2 million to 7 million Americans driving to the totality zone. Needless to say, the roads were crowded.

Despite the bumper-to-bumper traffic, we made it within the zone

by about 7:30 a.m. We went to the first town in Wyoming within the viewing area: Wheatland. From the looks of it, the town of Wheatland doesn’t see a whole lot of tourism on a typical Monday morning.

But, on eclipse day, it was bustling. porta potties were set up on every other block, there were even some on the exit and entrance ramps to the highway. The longest lines were at the gas stations, where cars waited to fill up for the long journey back. A gas truck even had to refuel at one location. Arby’s was also an extremely popular place, with hungry customers coming in to order breakfast and use the facilities. Some were even wearing solar eclipse T-shirts. One woman said she had driven overnight from Houston.

Once we unloaded our bladders and satiated our appetites with Arby’s breakfast, we found a picnic table next to a dog park, the perfect viewing spot for our motley crew.

Many others had chosen the park, as well. It was obvious that some of them had gotten there very early because they had set up their sleeping bags and were napping as they awaited eclipse time.

The full eclipse was scheduled to happen at 11:49, however, right before 11, the moon started to cover the sun. As it continued, the light around us got dimmer, the blue sky lost some of its vitality,

and shadows became much more detailed. At 11:49, when the eclipse was full, cheers erupted from the people all around us. Then, we all went quiet, staring up at a dark sun with only the thinnest outline of light around it. There were no cows running, and I didn’t notice if any birds grew quiet or crickets got louder. Our puppies seemed confused, a bit anxious even, but not overwhelmingly so. The darkness lasted for less than two minutes before the sun started peeking out again, but that short period of time was worth every bit of hype I had rolled my eyes at in the weeks leading up to it. Seeing that natural phenomenon was well worth the journey. As for my mom, she was a bit disappointed she didn’t see cows frantically running away from the sun, but she seemed to think the experience was, overall, an adequate one.

Another eclipse will grace us with its presence in 2024. The next one where the Roaring Fork Valley will be in the totality zone is in 2045. Make sure to plan accordingly. It’s well worth all of the hassle.

Barbara Platts is now a solar eclipse chaser. She’s hooked. Reach her at bplatts.000@gmail.com or on Twitter @BarbaraPlatts.

WINEINK

BY KELLY J. HAYES

HARMONIC CONVERGENCE DUCKHORN BUYS CALERA

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE things just go the way they are supposed to. Such was the case last week when a marriage between the Duckhorn Wine Co. (DWC) and Calera Wine Co. was announced.

OK, so it was a purchase, a business transaction, rather than a marriage. But still, the simpatico that has long existed between these two KELLY J. entities ensures good HAYES things in the future for both sides as well as for those who love great wines. That sounds like the basis for a good marriage.

For Josh Jensen, who founded Calera in 1975, it delivers a considerable and well-deserved chunk of change at the end of a long, well-trod road. Though a price was not disclosed, it can be assumed that a brand as respected as Calera and the hard assets that come with it drew top dollar in what is currently a white-hot market for premium wine brands.

But more significantly for those who know Jensen, it provides the opportunity for him to pass on his legacy to people who understand his devotion to, and obsession with, quality. DWC can offer both the necessary resources and the stewardship to continue the dream that became a reality for one of California’s most driven wine makers. “Calera is my life’s work,” Jensen said about the sale. “In this era of industry consolidation, it was vital to me that I choose a partner that not only shares the values that have always defined Calera, but that also has the market presence to provide our wines a continued strong and secure route to market.”

For DWC and its owners, TSG Consumer Partners, the purchase is outside the aviary of Duckhorn’s growing flock of what is now seven brands. To date, the company has internally hatched all of its associated “birds” (Duckhorn/Golden Eye/Paraduxx/ Migration/Decoy/Canvasback/ Calera) and this is the first time they have flown beyond their own nest to feather someone else’s. Sorry. I couldn’t help it.

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

F

And what an acquisition it is.

In addition to Calera’s winery, stock, staff (including Calera winemaker Mike Waller, who will be staying on) and tasting room, the DWC gets Calera’s exceptional vineyards that have long been the source of single vineyard pinot noirs that wine lovers have come to relish. The Selleck, Jensen, Reed, Mills, Ryan and de Villiers estate vineyards are some of the world’s most renowned pinot noir sites. Totaling 85 planted acres, these rugged vineyards in the Mt. Harlan AVA rise between 2,200 and 2,500 feet in the sky, and are loaded with limestone.

But perhaps most significantly, this marriage unites two of the great success stories of the California wine revolution of the last century.

In the mid-1970s, American wine was dominated by massproduced brands like Gallo and Paul Masson. But among a new generation of winemakers, the idea that California could make quality wines that would rival those of the French was just starting to germinate.

In 1975, Jensen, who had developed a passion for pinot noir while working a pair of harvests at Domaine de la RomanéeConti in Burgundy fresh out of college at Oxford, planted his first vines. He had found a parcel of land rich in the limestone soils he believed would be the key to his wines in the Gavilan Mountains, 100 miles or so south of San Francisco. Jensen staked a claim and set about making his single vineyard pinot noir. This was a hard and forsaken place, but Jensen knew its potential.

The next year, right around the time of the famed 1976 “Judgment of Paris,” which deemed a pair of California wines as worthy of global respect, Dan and Margaret Duckhorn began their quest for wine excellence, giving birth to their eponymous brand.

Duckhorn would set a standard for merlot, especially from the Three Palms Vineyard. In 1978, Calera released its first vintage of pinot noir and Duckhorn released its first 800 cases of Merlot.

Aug u st 2 4 - Aug u st 30, 20 17

Over the next four decades, Jensen and the Duckhorns would become both friends and admirers of each other’s wines. Jensen’s road would be more singularly focused and solitary, while the Duckhorns would branch into other regions and varieties including pinot noir, which was always Dan Duckhorn’s first love. DWC’s production is now approaching a million cases from its myriad wine entities, while Calera weighs in at 35,000 cases annually.

Now both Dan Duckhorn and Josh Jensen will sit on the board of the DWC and, no doubt, toast to their mutual success.

Sometimes things just turn out the way they are supposed to.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE CALERA 2015 PINOT NOIR CENTRAL COAST Though it is the single vineyard wines from Josh Jensen that draw the attention of pinot-philes, his Central Coast blends have always represented incredible value.

Here, for less than $30, you have a wine that not only represents the style of this deft winemaker but delivers the fruits of the limestone-based vineyards as well.

There may be no better bottle of wine to price ratio on the market today.

COOKING ON DEADLINE PORK SCHNITZEL WITH CUCUMBER SALAD

SCHNITZELS ARE OFTEN MADE with veal or chicken, but pork is a great alternative. Pounding out the cutlets makes them even thinner and more tender, so they cook up quickly, perfect for a weeknight meal. And there’s that irresistible crunch from the Panko bread-crumb coating. This is one of those heartening dishes that’s

popular with both kids and adults.

The tangy, quickly pickled cucumbers and onions make a great counterpoint to the lightly fried pork cutlets. You could definitely use dried dill instead of fresh if it’s easier.

Also, yes, they’re called seedless cucumbers, but of course there are still a nominal amount of seeds in them. Removing the seeds

gives the salad a nicer texture, without the slightly slimy consistency of the seeds, and helps reduce any wateriness in the salad.

A little tip: Double the cucumber salad next time you are serving a bagel and smoked salmon spread — it’s a great side for a brunch of any sort, especially as a foil to smoked fish.

MAKE IT PORK SCHNITZEL WITH QUICK, PICKLEY CUCUMBER SALAD Serves 2 to 4 Start to finish: 30 minutes Quick Pickley Cucumber Salad: 1 seedless cucumber, peeled if desired 1/2 red onion, very thinly sliced 2 teaspoons Kosher salt 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar 1/2 teaspoon sugar 1 tablespoon minced fresh dill (preferable) or 1 teaspoon dried dill Freshly ground black pepper to taste Pork Schnitzel: 4 1/2-inch (4 ounce) thick boneless pork chops 2 ⁄3 cup all-purpose flour 2 ⁄3 cup whole milk 1 cup Panko bread crumbs Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 2 teaspoons finely minced fresh thyme 2 to 4 tablespoons olive oil Slice the cucumber in half lengthwise, use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds, and slice the cucumbers into thin half-moons.

Place the sliced cucumber and the onion in a colander and toss with the salt. Let sit for 10 minutes, then rinse the cucumber and onion in very cold water and, using your hands, squeeze the vegetables to remove as much water as possible. Place the cucumber mixture in a clean dishtowel, roll up, and twist and squeeze to remove as much water as possible again.

In a serving bowl, stir together the vinegar, sugar, dill and pepper. Add the cucumber and onion and toss to combine. Hold in the fridge.

Place each pork chop between two pieces of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin (or bottle of wine) to gently pound the pork chops until they are of an even thickness between ¼- and 1⁄3-inch thick.

Place the flour in a shallow bowl, the milk in another shallow bowl, and the Panko bread crumbs in a third shallow bowl. Season the flour and the milk lightly with salt and pepper. Stir the thyme into the Panko.

Season the pork lightly with salt and pepper, then dip each piece into the flour, shaking off any excess, and then into the milk, then the Panko, pressing so that the bread crumbs adhere to the pork. Place the breaded pork on a plate or wire rack.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet until hot. Cook the pork for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown and just cooked through; you will probably need to do this in at least two batches, adding more oil for the second batch as needed.

When the pieces of pork are cooked, place them briefly on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve the pork with the Quick Pickley Cucumber Salad.

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

by JEANNE MCGOVERN

SPIKED! With the end of summer break for the kids comes that sinking feeling that summer itself is drawing to a close. But, truly, there are plenty more warm days and outdoor adventures ahead. To celebrate this change of season, which really isn’t a change of season, our family has traditionally treated oursleves to ice cream after school in the first week — a way of proving to ourselves there’s still fun to be had. This year, to my delight,

TASTE IT

our ice cream adventure took us to CP Burger, right in downtown Aspen.

The local burger joint and family-friendly hangout (complete with minigolf course) not only has an appealing menu of $5 milkshakes, it has an additional menu of “spiked shakes” for the grownups — including my absolute favorite Root Beer Float. And, of course, I am not opposed to recreating this tasty, boozy float at home. In fact, does summer really have to completely end when you can sip on something like this?

LIBATIONS WAS CREATED BY BELOVED ASPEN TIMES PUBLISHER GUNILLA ASHER, WHO DIED JUNE 2, 2014, AFTER A BRAVE BATTLE

CP Burger’s menu of spiked shakes include six options. Our favorites: • Root Beer Float: Blackmaker root beer liqueur, vanilla ice cream • Naughty Monkey: Banana, Butterscotch Schnapps, Stoli Vanil, vanilla ice cream • Pina Colorado: Malibu Rum, coconut, vanilla ice cream

WITH CANCER. CHEERS — TO GUNNER!

ew World food takes on a wholly new meaning in the lexicon of renowned Aspen chef C. Barlclay Dodge and his Bosq restaurant.

“We all travel a lot here,” says the Aspen native, who opened Bosq to accolades last summer, which have only grown over time.

“So what I’ve tried to do is take my own travels and gently weave them into our cuisines. We are not one type of food; we are world food.”

The current lunch and dinner menus — not to mention the everchanging specials and seasonally fresh offerings — tell the tale.

At lunch, try the farro salad with asparagus, morels, hazelnut-Parmesan crostini or a more hearty brie.l.t. sandwich (ciabatta, bacon, brie, fig jam). At dinner, the Alaskan halibut with molé amarillo, chayote squash, green olive, and cashew is creative summer success (the halibut also appears, as a ceviche, on the lunch menu).

Sharable plates have changed ever-so-slightly to meet changing palates: the burrata (“always burrata, because this town loves burrata”) is now being served in a clear tomato gazpacho with heirloom tomatoes and basil; the seafood crudo is now a refreshing salmon crudo with sesame, tostada and cucumber ceviche.

Still, some traditions hold true.

AS SEEN IN

EAT

A Bosq signature dish since its opening, Peking duck (with cucumbers, leeks, pancakes, hoisin sauce) remains a staple of the dinner menu.

The reasons for such an eclectic feel? Dodge himself.

Dining at Bosq is to peek into the mind of a chef, one “not bound by tradition” Dodge says, but drawn to using rich ingredients in sauces and proteins (beef, chicken, fish, game) and simple techniques and carefully arrayed ingredients, calling to mind the very name of the restaurant, abbreviated Spanish for “woodlands.”

Lightness carries over to the bar, where libations are served up via an expanded list of American and Old World wine, handcrafted cocktails and more. All of this is perfectly complemented by the unparalleled outdoor patio.

“In summer, I can’t think of a better location to enjoy Aspen,” says Dodge, pointing to the hustling confluence of Wagner Park, the

VOYAGES

DESTINATION | CANADA

by ADAM KEALOHA CAUSEY for THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A TASTE OF IT ALL

FROM RUGGED HIKES TO UPSCALE RESORTS IN CANADIAN ROCKIES CANADA’S STRETCH of the Rocky Mountains is an outdoor paradise with something for everyone: upscale resorts surrounded by jagged mountains, isolated hikes offering an escape from urban life and crystal-blue water that dares you to feel the chill.

The mountains straddle the border of British Columbia and Alberta, with two of its best-known destinations, Banff National Park and Lake Louise, in Alberta.

My family and I flew into Calgary, rented cars and spent a week exploring the wonders around Banff, setting up base camp in Canmore, about 60 miles west of Calgary. Our accommodations were at the midway point between luxury and roughing it. Cabins at Banff Gate Mountain Resort have a full kitchen and electricity, but no air conditioning. That worked fine on summer nights when temperatures dipped into the 50s.

Late afternoon sun beating in got the cabins toasty. That’s not a problem, though, in a place where there’s plenty to do besides sit indoors.

Here are some highlights: JOIN THE THRONGS AT LAKE LOUISE

Banff is the most popular of the area’s cluster of national parks — which also includes Jasper, Yoho and Kootenay — and Banff ’s crown jewel is the glacial-fed Lake Louise. The lake is exquisite, as evidenced by selfies snapped along its shoreline walking paths, capturing smiling families with snow-covered mountains in the background. If being on the water is your preferred way to experience the lake, canoe rentals are available through Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, a decidedly more chic hotel than where we stayed.

If crowds aren’t your thing, plan to get to Lake Louise as early as possible. We didn’t venture that way until noon, and parking lots were packed.

Crowds are likely to be bigger than usual this year, because admission to Canada’s national parks is free in observance of the nation’s 150th birthday.

HEAR THE ROAR OF TAKAKKAW FALLS

For a more rugged experience, we left the masses of Banff behind, bound for Takakkaw Falls in Yoho.

Heading west into British Columbia (and the Pacific time zone) you pick up an hour, so that may have helped us beat the crowd a bit, too.

Even before we got out of the parking lot — about a half-mile from the falls — we could hear their mighty roar. Tumbling from 1,246 feet, the 60-degree air took on a chill as mist filled the air.

A refreshing start to the day preceded what eventually became a 12-mile round-trip hike. From Takakkaw we took the Iceline Trail, which included views of the Yoho and Little Yoho rivers and Laughing Falls.

TAKE IN THE SIGHTS FROM THE BOW RIVER

Not everyone in our crew enjoys a hike, but we do all like the water.

Sections of the Canadian Rockies include whitewater, but we decided to go for a smoother ride with Canmore River Adventures. The six

of us joined another family of three on a wide raft paddled by a guide.

At one point we stopped and were told to touch a finger or toe to the water if we dared. I did, but I didn’t stay keep my hand in for long — the guide said the river’s temperature was about 40 degrees and wouldn’t get any warmer.

Our one-hour float down the beautiful Bow River included sightings of an elk that had swum to an island to munch on grass and — just before we exited the boat— a bald eagle that dove into the water and came up clasping a fish. It was a fitting end to a spectacular trip.

SEASONS

If you can’t get there this summer, the weather remains relatively mild into September, when larch and aspen trees turn gold as fall arrives.

And there’s always winter skiing: The slopes typically open in November.

IF YOU GO...

Fly Fishing: Where Art, Science & Serenity Become One

by JEANNE MCGOVERN photos by ANNA STONEHOUSE

A S P E N T I M E S . C O M / W E E K LY

25

IN MID-JULY, ON ONE OF the busiest days of the summer season in Aspen, this is what I heard: the rippling waters of the Roaring Fork River, birds and insects buzzing about, the light rustling of trees, and the amazingly serene swoosh of the fly rod in my hand as I cast — over and over and over again — on my first-ever attempt at fly fishing.

I have heard, from several seasoned fishermen, there is nothing quite like a day spent on the river with a fly rod in hand. In that moment of hushed peacefulness, I understood. It seemed to me to be the perfect blending of art, science and serenity.

And then, WHAM! I felt a gentle tug, which turned into a rather ungraceful “setting” of the hook and an even more chaotic attempt to reel the fish in to shore. To my inexperienced self, it felt like I had caught a shark. It swam (hard) away, as I reeled — “a little slower” ... “give it some line,” the guide reminded me. This game of cat-and-mouse continued for what seemed like hours before a mid-sized rainbow trout was dangling before me. The calm of cast had been replaced by the rush of the catch. I was hooked.

“That’s our job, to show you a good time,” says Tom Menas, a guide with Aspen Outfitting Co., who took myself and photographer Anna Stonehouse out on a section of private water the company manages near Woody Creek.

Catching that fish was fun, but as we spent the morning with Menas talking about all things fly fishing — he hits the river every day, whether he’s working or not, and sometimes both when he’s working and when he get off work — it became as clear

as the river we were fishing that the sport is about far more than throwing a line in the water.

“There is nothing else quite like it,” Menas says, clearly enthused and genuinely passionate about his job and his life spent fly fishing. “You get to be outside, you have to know your environment, nothing’s every guaranteed. ... Every day is different on the water.”

For example, the day we spent with Menas, caddis were beginning to hatch. This, in the fly fishing world, is big. But while it’s easy — even to the novice fisherman — to take note of the flies swirling around your head, there is more to the story.

Menas grabs a rock from just below the water’s surface and turns it over; various types of mayfly nymphs, which would soon finish the growth cycle to become actual flies, prompt Menas to put the rod down, dig into his pack and find his box of flies. He then changes out the bait.

The golden ticket, he explains, is finding the exact replica of what the fish are eating and using that to lure them in. In Menas’ box of flies, many are hand-tied; they can also be purchased at fly fishing shops like Aspen Outfitters (which has storefronts in the St. Regis Aspen and a newly opened one next to the Woody Creek Tavern). It is in this regard, the art of fly fishing — the gentle arc of the cast, mending the line so it travels downstream just so, setting the hook when a fish bites and then patiently reeling it in — becomes the science of fishing.

“There is nothing wrong with just heading out to the river and giving it a go ... I mean, how can a day spent like this ever be bad?” Menas says.

“Catch and release: A practice within fly fishing intended as a technique of conservation. Fish should be fought quickly and never allowed to tire to the point of exhaustion to prevent injury or death. After capture, the fish is unhooked using wet hands ‘or no touching if possible’ and forceps and returned to the water as quickly as possible. If necessary, resuscitate by pointing the fish’s head upstream into the current and waiting until it swims off under its own power.” – Fly Fishing Lingo, www.redington.com

“But when you bring with you a bit of knowledge, it can make the experience that much greater.”

For many, that knowledge is gained by fishing with a guide; Aspen Outfitters is just one of many in the Roaring Fork Valley (Frying Pan Anglers, Taylor Creek and countless others come to mind) that offer guide services of all types. Trips run on the Roaring Fork River, Frying Pan River, with both private stretches and public access offered by most companies. Lake, pond and reservoir fishing is also out there. And you can fly fish year-round. It is, at least in Menas’ eyes, the perfect Rocky Mountain sport.

“When the hatches are big, it’s exciting,” he says. “But when it’s a bit slower, you can really think about the sport, spend time in the wilderness, regroup.”

And to myself and Anna, the idea of winter fly fishing

— though cold — was especially appealing.

Why? Menas understood.

“It is so silent out here in winter. The banks are covered in white, the water is just a trickle, but there are still fish,” he says. “And, I guess, at the end of the day, that’s what it’s about — trying to catch that fish.” When Jon Hollinger started his outfitting company nearly 40 years ago (they also offer guided target shooting and hunting trips), he says his goal was to offer others the chance to “traditional outdoor pursuits” at the very highest level.

For us, the introduction to one of these formerly foreign outdoor pursuits was benefit enough. One day spent on the river was worth a million spent at the office.

“Matching the hatch: An attempt by a fly angler to select an artificial fly that imitates the color, size, shape and behavior of natural insects that fish are feeding at a particular time.” – Fly Fishing Lingo, www.redington.com

By WAY OF THE WATER WHILE FLY FISHING may be a way of life for many who live in or visit the Roaring Fork Valley, it is by no means the only way to enjoy the waters that surround Aspen.

In fact, there are countless ways to explore this Rocky Mountain paradise by way of the water.

Here is the story of one of our favorites ...

SAIL AWAY If you have a boat, the best — and really one of the only — way to enjoy cruising around is a trip to Ruedi Reservoir. Located just above Basalt along the Frying Pan River, this expansive body of water is ground zero for local water skiing, wind surfing, sailing and more (think ice fishing in winter).

And while you can find plenty of information online about activities at Ruedi, for the first summer in nearly 50 years, Aspen’s lone sailing program is navigating the waters without its leader at the helm. We thought it worth reflecting on here, and share this article by Erica Robbie from a recent edition of The Aspen Times: Don Sheeley, a longtime Aspen local who died in January, started

a children’s sailing school on the shores of Ruedi Reservoir in 1971.

In honor of Sheeley and his contributions to the community, which extend well beyond his aquatic endeavors, the city of Aspen on July 10 passed a proclamation to rename its sailing program the Don Sheeley Sailing School.

In a full-circle series of events, two of Sheeley’s former students — his daughter, Courtney Wyckoff, and Taylor Hale — now direct the sailing program, which the city Parks and Recreation Department has managed since the school’s inception.Hale, who first joined the program as a child in the early 1990s, said leading the school after Sheeley is “one of the highest honors of my life.”

“Don Sheeley was just a really special, unique, stand-out guy.

He made all the difference for so many kids in this valley, myself included,” Hale said. “He was really a pillar of the community.”

Without Sheeley at the reservoir, Hale seeks to emulate his predecessor’s teaching style, among other traits.

“Don’s whole philosophy, which I completely agree with, is you’ll learn it by doing it,”

he said. “He always made us (students) feel that he trusted us.”

Wyckoff echoed Hale’s sentiment and said, “We (as students) all really appreciated it.”

“It wasn’t like a coach yelling at you. It was trial and error. We learned by doing,” Wyckoff said.

“Through that, I think it was a lot more rewarding than someone holding your hand throughout.”

Hale said Sheeley’s style of teaching conveyed self-reliance.

“And with sailing, in particular, you have to have that,” Hale said.

The thought of returning to Ruedi without Sheeley — no less teaching a group of 10- to 14-yearsolds on the open water — was daunting at first, Hale said.

“Honestly, I was pretty terrified,” Hale said. “Just the mental aspect of knowing Don was there (in the past). ... He was the epitome of calmness and such genuine, deep confidence.”

Despite his initial trepidation, Hale said this summer at the school has been smooth sailing.

“It turned out that this summer’s class has been, honest to God, some of the best kids that I recall in the past five or 10 years. They’re fearless,” he said, and are thriving in spite of

some “radically” unpredictable weather on the water.

Hale explained how unlike ocean sailing, which typically offers more predictable, less extreme conditions, “anything can happen” sailing on a lake, and even more so at high altitudes.

“It’s either dead calm or it is whipping, whipping, whipping, where we are the only ones out here,” he said.

Perhaps this is why one of Sheeley’s most remembered mottos at the school remains: “If you can sail at Ruedi, you can sail anywhere.” ...

ON A ROLL

And while Sheeley’s contributions to life on the water locally cannot be underestimated, there are a few other activities worth noting (and not missing).

Kayaking and rafting are big on stretches of the Roaring Fork and Colorado rivers. The ideal way to get prepped: kayak rolling classes at the Aspen Recreation.

Also high on the summer t0-do list: SUPing or tubing Stillwater, a leap off the dam at Chapman Reservoir or Devil’s Punchbowl, and Sunday Fundays at any outdoor pool.

ONES TO WATCH AT MOUNTAINFILM FILM FESTIVAL RUNS THROUGH SUNDAY

AS OUR ALL-TOO SHORT summer wanes, it’s hard to keep mountainfolk indoors.

But if there’s any worthy excuse to come in from the sunshine and fresh air or to skip a night under the stars, it’s Mountainfilm in Aspen.

The annual co-presentation of Telluride Mountainfilm and the Wheeler Opera House — renamed Mountainfilm in Aspen after years as MountainSummit — opened Wednesday and runs through Sunday, Aug. 27. It showcases the newest and best in adventure film storytelling, straight from the renowned Telluride Mountainfilm festival, with some surprises and extraordinary special guests in store.

“We have curated an impressive film lineup for fans of adventure, exploration and inspiration,” Wheeler executive director Gena Buhler said last month when the lineup was announced.

Along with five days of screenings in the Wheeler, events include panel discussions at the Little Nell on a range from topics from climate change to streaming media’s effect on documentary filmmaking and a new “lunch film series” at the Cooking School of Aspen. Those screenings include “Fishpeople” (Thursday, 12:30 p.m.) about six diverse people — a diver, a spear fisher, a surfer and others — who virtually live in the ocean.

The festival’s special guests include “Chasing Coral” director Jeff Orlowski, who will be on hand for Friday night’s screening of his film. If you missed this eye-opening documentary about the underwater crisis of climate change at Aspen Ideas Fest and AREDAY, don’t skip Friday’s presentation.

This year’s lineup spans from earnest environmental documentaries like “The End of Snow” to celebrations of outdoor awesomeness like the Laird Hamilton documentary “Take Every Wave.”

Here are some of the anticipated summits of Mountainfilm in Aspen: CHARGED: THE EDUARDO GARCIA STORY

Thursday, Aug. 24, 7 p.m.

Garcia is known as “the bionic

F

chef.” He suffered life-threatening injuries six years ago when he was electrocuted in a backcountry accident, and now cooks — to great acclaim — with a prosthetic arm. This film recounts his inspiring recovery and culinary career. (Garcia will be at Thursday’s screening and will host a community dinner on Sunday, see related story, page 4).

THE LAST HONEY HUNTER

Friday, Aug. 25, 12:30 p.m.

Mauli Dhan Rai is a spiritual honey hunter who scales cliffs high in the mountains of Nepal, harvesting poisonous honey made by the world’s largest honeybee for the Kulung people. The Kulung believe the honey comes directly from the gods. But this remote spiritual tradition is under threat by the modernization creeping steadily through Nepal. Director Ben Knight, who embedded with Mauli Dhan Rai and the Kulung, will be on hand for Friday’s screening.

KIDS KINO

Sunday, Aug. 27, Noon Mountainfilm in Aspen’s kids’ presentation has expanded widely in recent years, adding hands-on, interactive activities to this alwayspopular afternoon of kid-friendly short films. atravers@aspentimes.com

IF YOU GO WHAT: Mountainfilm in Aspen, presented by the Wheeler Opera House and Telluride Mountainfilm WHERE: Wheeler Opera House WHEN: Through Sunday, Aug. 27 HOW MUCH: $25/single tickets; $60/Pick 3 Pass; $140/Festival Pass.

TICKETS: Wheeler box office; www.aspenshowtix.com

DIRTBAG: THE LEGEND OF FRED BECKEY

Friday, Aug. 25, 5:30 p.m.

The elusive climbing god Fred Beckey was too busy racking up first ascents throughout most of his legendary climbing career to slow down and let somebody make a movie about him. But 12 years ago, at age 83, the original “dirtbag” gave Colorado filmmaker Dave O’Leske intimate access to his life and archives.

O’Leske, who will be in Aspen this weekend, spent the following decade at Beckey’s side making an extraordinary film about adventure, sacrifice and a truly one-of-a-kind mountain character.

BLOOD ROAD

Saturday, Aug. 26, 5:30 p.m.

Ultra-endurance athlete Rebecca Rusch took her mountain bike to Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia to ride some 1,200 miles of the Ho Chi Minh Trail in search of the site where her father’s plane crashed 45 years ago during the height of the Vietnam War. The film follows her on her personal journey through the jungle and into history. Rusch will appear via Skype after Saturday’s screening.

ometimes, the recipe for success is to keep things simple — and Carbondale’s Fatbelly Burgers is a prime example of this mantra.

“Our menu is pretty straightforward, though we’ve added a few extras over the years,” says Francie Jacober, manager of the familyowned and operated burger joint.

“Honestly, it’s about real, good food — served fast and always done right.”

That “real” food statement is more than true. In fact, it was the impetus for Fatbelly.

Opened by the Tai and Molly Jacober, owners of Crystal River Beef (whose motto is “Local Beef.

PRICES Nothing over $10 AMBIENCE Super casual, grab-and-go, family-friendly. SIGNATURE DISHES The Standard burger, The Tree Hugger, lemon-mint cabbage salad and milkshakes made with Glacier of Boulder ice cream.

Down the street, literally.

Cows Fear us.”) Fatbelly was created to give people a place to enjoy the fruits of their labor at the ranch. It has grown into one Carbondale’s busiest restaurants and one of the best places to get a burger in the Roaring Fork Valley.

“People tell us all the time we have the best burger around,” Francie says. “And I’d agree.

There’s nothing fancy about it, but it’s made with the best beef and that makes all the difference.”

The menu is simple: The Standard is one grass-fed beef patty, cheese, lettuce, tomato, grilled onion, pickles and house spread. It’s what you envision a burger to be.

Fancy it up as a Crystal River Burger (The Standard with a fried egg) or Pepper Burger (The Standard with bacon, jalepno, swiss and a cracked-pepper enrusted patty).

Lighten it up as a Lettuce Wrap (The Standard Paleo-style, tightly wrapped in a lettuce, no bun) or as a burger made with lamb, chicken, black beans or, a local fave, the Tree Hugger (house-made

falafel patty with all the trimmings.)

“We learned after the first few years that it was good to have a wider selection than just The Standard burger,” says Francie. “But we’ve only expanded when we know what we’re offering is right.”

Other non-burger options, which are just as juicy and downhome as the bugers include hot dogs (grass-fed of course), grilled cheese, and chili.

On the greener side, Fatbelly’s salads — a Kale Quinoa Salad and a Lemon-Mint Cabbage Salad — provide the perfect complements to the burger-and-fries combo (yes, the fries are hand-cut and crisped to perfection). They are both Francie’s recipes, and they rival the taste of salads in Aspen’s finer restaurants.

Of course, no burger joint could call itself that without serving up a milkshake. At Fatbelly, all shakes are made-to-order with Boulder’s Glacier ice cream. Or, get some in a cone or cup. Ordered through the small take-out window at the front of Fatbelly, it’s like a blast from the past.

And this, says Francie, is what Fatbelly is really all about.

“We’re just trying to offer our customers what they want — locally made slow fast food,” she says.

Yes, Fatbelly offers all of this.

Done right. top to bottom: The Standard burger and fries; a rich chocolate ice cream cone; the kale quinoa salad.

Introduction: The Mid Valley Metropolitan District (the “District” or “Applicant”) is a Colorado special district providing water and sanitary sewer services to areas of the Roaring Fork Valley located in and around El Jebel, in Eagle and Garfield Counties, Colorado. The District’s existing plan for augmentation, decreed in Consolidated Case Nos. 85CW591 and 90CW074 (the “Consolidated Case”), addresses annual diversions by the District of up to 847.233 acrefeet per year. The District has experienced significant development of its service area and anticipates that future growth will necessitate diversions in excess of the limit from the Consolidated Case. Accordingly, the purpose of the current Application is to supply water for future growth and to meet water demands of the District in excess of the 847.233 acre-feet allotted in the Consolidated Case. First Claim: Application for Changes of Water Rights. Name of Water Right: North Side Pioneer Ditch. Decree Information: Decree, Priority, and Amount.

Legal Description: The headgate is located on the north bank of the Roaring Fork River, near the SW corner of the NW1/4 of the SW1/4 of Section 11, Township 8 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M. Source: Roaring Fork River. Use: Irrigation. Amount of water that Applicant requests to change 0.40 c.f.s. (all of Applicant’s ownership interest in the ditch). Description of Proposed Change: The water rights to be changed were historically used to irrigate 8.6 acres of land located in what is now the River Ranch Subdivision, located in Sections 2 and 3, Township 8 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M. The historically irrigated land is shown on Exhibit A, attached to the Application. The subject lands were removed from irrigation upon development of the River Ranch Subdivision. Applicant proposes a change of use from irrigation to consumptive use credits to be used for augmentation through dry-up of the historically irrigated land. The resulting consumptive use credits will be used to replace Applicant’s out-of-priority depletions under the plan for augmentation described below. Historical Irrigation Use: The water rights subject to this change were historically used to irrigate 8.6 acres of pasture grass in the River Ranch Subdivision in the location depicted in Exhibit A. Historical Consumptive Use Credits: Using the modified Blaney-Criddle method, the Applicant’s engineer calculated the evapotranspiration rate for irrigated pasture grass to be 1.90 acre-feet per acre. Accordingly, the Applicant’s historical consumptive use credit for dry-up of the 8.6 acres identified on Exhibit A is 16.32 acre-feet per year.

The monthly distribution of consumptive use credits is shown on Table 1, in Section 7 of the Application. Name of Water Right: Robinson and Harris Ditch. Decree Info: Decree, Priority, and Amount.

The Consolidated Case Third Decree did not specify the distribution of excess consumptive use credits among the four ditches for which water rights were quantified and changed in that case. Accordingly, this plan for augmentation distributes the excess consumptive use credits to each of the four ditches in proportion to the total historical consumptive use credits quantified to each ditch in the Third Decree. The resulting percentage of excess consumptive use credits applied to each ditch is set forth in Table 2 below. The excess consumptive use credits are available during the months of May-Aug. each year, and are distributed and applied to this plan for augmentation according to the schedule in Table 2.

Excess Historical Consumptive Use Credits from Case No. 99CW308. Applicant has 7.77 acre-feet of excess consumptive use credits in the Cox & Henry Ditch that were decreed in Case No. 99CW308 (at ¶¶ 10.3.2 and 20) which are applied to this plan for augmentation. Decree information for the Cox and Henry Ditch is provided above. The excess consumptive use credits are available during the months of May-Aug. each year, and are distributed and applied to this plan for augmentation according to the schedule in Table 3. Table 3: Distribution of Excess CU Credits from Case No. 99CW308 (in acre-feet): Jan. = 0; Feb. = 0; March = 0; April = 0; May = 1.01; June = 1.65; Jul. = 2.18; Aug. = 1.76; Sept. = 0.90; Oct. = 0.27; Nov. = 0; Dec. = 0; Total (AF) = 7.77. Historical Consumptive Use Credits from Case No. 03CW77. The District acquired 9.35 acre-feet of consumptive use credits that were quantified and decreed in Case No. 03CW77. The credits were originally applied to augment irrigation season potable water requirements associated with development of the Cerise Ranch Subdivision. The Subdivision was later included into the District and receives potable water service from the District. In return, the developer dedicated 9.35 acre-feet of consumptive use credits and the associated interest in the underlying ditches to the District. The 9.35 acre-feet of consumptive use was associated with the dry-up of lands historically irrigated by the Harris and Reed Ditch, the Harris Lateral, and the Highline Ditch, described as follows: Ditch

The District will utilize the consumptive use credits to provide an additional source of replacement water for the current plan for augmentation. The 9.35 acre-feet of consumptive use credits will be applied to the plan according to the domestic depletion and replacement schedule decreed in Case No. 03CW77, as shown in Table 4. Table 4: Distribution of CU Credits from Case No. 03CW77 (in acre-feet): Jan. = 0; Feb. = 0; March = 0; April = 0.94; May = 1.11; June = 1.33; Jul. = 1.56; Aug. = 1.75; Sept. = 1.81; Oct. = 0.85; Nov. = 0; Dec. = 0; Total (AF) = 9.35. Ruedi Reservoir Contract Storage Water. Applicant holds Contract No. 9-07-60-W0847 (300 acre-feet) and Contract No. 139D6C0106 (100 acre-feet) with the United States Bureau of Reclamation for a total of 400 acre-feet of annual water supply from Ruedi Reservoir, described as follows: Legal description of place of storage: Ruedi Reservoir is located in Sections 7, 8, 9, 11 and 14 through 18, T. 8 S., R. 84 W., 6th P.M., in Eagle and Pitkin Counties. The dam axis intersects the right abutment at a point whence the SW corner of Section 7, T. 8 S., R. 84 W. of the 6th P.M. bears N. 82°10’W. a distance of 1,285 feet. Source: Fryingpan River. Previous storage decrees: Civil Action No. 4613: Decree Date: June 20, 1958. Court: Garfield County District Court.

Amount: 140,697.3 acre feet, reduced to 102,369 acre feet pursuant to order of the Water Court in Case No. W-789-76. The full amount was made absolute in Case No. 88CW85. Appropriation Date: July 29, 1957. Use: Domestic, municipal, irrigation, industrial, generation of electrical energy, stock watering and piscatorial. Case No. 81CW34: Decree Date: April 8, 1985. Court: District Court, Water Div. No. 5. Amount: 101,280 acre feet (refill); of this amount, 44,509 acre feet were made absolute in Case No. 95CW95 and 25,257 acre feet were made absolute in Case No. 01CW269, for a total of 69,766 acre feet absolute. Appropriation Date: January 22, 1981. Use: Irrigation, domestic, municipal, generation of electrical energy, stock watering, industrial, piscatorial, recreation and maintenance of sufficient storage reserves to fulfill contractual obligations and provide stored water for recreation in times of drought. Of the District’s 400 acre-feet of annual storage water supply, 81.96 acre-feet are dedicated to augmentation under the District’s Consolidated Case and 14.2 acre-feet are dedicated to augmentation in Case No. 99CW308, leaving the District with 303.84 acre-feet of available storage water. Of that amount, 76.48 acre-feet are dedicated to this plan for augmentation, as detailed in the Statement of Plan for Augmentation below. Statement of Plan for Augmentation: Nature and Purpose of Plan. The District is a Colorado special district formed and functioning pursuant to Section 32-1-101, C.R.S., et seq., providing water and sanitary sewer services to areas of the Roaring Fork Valley located in and around El Jebel, in Eagle and Garfield Counties, Colorado. At this time, the District’s service area is generally located within portions of Sections 29, 32, 33, 34 and 35, Township 7 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M. and Sections 2, 3, 4, 10, 11 and 12, Township 8 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M., as identified on the Overview Map attached to the application as Exhibit C. Additional land may be included within the District’s boundaries pursuant to state statute and may be served by the District under this plan for augmentation. The District’s potable water supplies are diverted through a series of groundwater wells located within the District and delivered throughout the District’s service area to meet the domestic and commercial water demands of the District’s customers. The District’s existing plan for augmentation, decreed in the Consolidated Case (Case Nos. 85CW591 and 90CW074), addresses diversions by the District of up to 847.233 acre-feet per year. Since its formation, the District has experienced significant growth from both infill and expansion of its service area, and the District anticipates that continued growth will necessitate diversions in excess of the limit from the Consolidated Case. Accordingly, the purpose of the current plan is to supply water for future growth and to meet water demands of the District in excess of 847.233 acre-feet by augmenting out-of-priority depletions associated with such increased demands. Estimated Water Demands and Depletions. The District’s municipal water demands to be augmented hereunder will be supplied from any one or a combination of the District’s wells described above. A number of the District’s current and anticipated future developments utilize senior ditch rights or other untreated water supplies for irrigation, thus reducing demand on the District’s wells and potable water supply system. The wells augmented by this plan supply the District’s domestic and commercial indoor water demands, that portion of the District’s outdoor irrigation water demands that utilize treated water, and bulk water sales. A summary of the District’s monthly demands and depletions associated with the municipal uses of water is set forth on Table 5, attached to the application. Applicant’s total well water demand at build-out of this plan is approximately 1,448.81 acre-feet per year, with an associated consumptive use of 292.84 acre-feet per year. Indoor Water Demands and Depletions. The District uses equivalent residential units (EQRs) for water supply and planning purposes. Anticipated build-out of the District is estimated to be 4,500 EQRs. For purposes of this application, Applicant conservatively assigns 350 gpd per EQR to indoor water demands. Should actual average indoor water demands be less than 350 gpd per EQR, the District reserves the right to serve more EQRs within the volume of replacement water dedicated to this plan. At 350 gpd/EQR, the District’s estimated total build-out demand for indoor water uses is 1,764.23 acre-feet per year. Of that amount, the Consolidated Case augments indoor demands of up to 604.43 acre-feet per year. The remaining 1,159.80 acre-feet per year of indoor water demands will be augmented under this plan.

The District owns and operates a centralized wastewater treatment facility that discharges to the Roaring Fork River near the Garfield-Eagle County line. Depletions are 5 percent of indoor water demands, for an estimated total depletion of 58.04 acre-feet per year at build-out. Ninety-five percent of the District’s indoor water demands return to the stream as wastewater return flows which accrue to the stream in the same month. The schedule of anticipated indoor municipal diversions and consumptive use at build-out of the District is provided in Table 5. Outdoor Water Demand and Depletions. The District estimates that it will add approximately 100 acres of land (primarily residential lawns and community/green spaces) that will be irrigated from the District’s potable water system (wells) above and beyond the 85.4 acres of potable water irrigation that is augmented under the Consolidated Case. Applicant’s estimated irrigation demand for 100 acres of lawn and landscaping is 271.01 acre-feet per year, diverted during the months of April through October. Applicant’s engineers calculated the irrigation consumptive use rate using the Modified Blaney-Criddle method for bluegrass, resulting in an estimated consumptive use rate of 2.168 acre-feet per acre. At build-out of 100 acres, Applicant’s total outdoor irrigation consumptive use is calculated to be 216.80 acre-feet, as set forth in Table 5. Bulk Water Sales. The District sells potable water, in bulk, for use within the Roaring Fork Valley. This plan augments for bulk water sales of up to 18.00 acre-feet per year, as set forth in Table 5. Bulk water use is considered 100 percent consumptive. Delayed Stream Depletions and Return Flows. Table 5 summarizes the District’s anticipated build-out demands and depletions associated with the District’s wells. The schedule of augmentation requirements to replace those depletions will be affected by delayed depletions from the wells, as well as the timing of wastewater return flows and potable irrigation return flows. Delayed Well Depletions. Applicant’s engineers calculated delayed well depletions using the Integrated Decision Support Group’s Alluvial Water Accounting System (IDS AWAS). Applicant’s engineers found that 99 percent of the depletions associated with pumping the District’s wells reached the Roaring Fork River within two months and normalized the remaining return flows on a pro-rata basis across the first two months. The associated schedule of well demands and delayed depletions is set forth in Table 5. Lagged well depletions reach the Roaring Fork River at or below the upstream-most well location, near MVMD Well Nos. 3 and 4. Return Flows. Wastewater return flows associated with pumping the District’s wells return to the Roaring Fork River at the treated effluent outflow from the District’s wastewater treatment facility, identified on the map attached to the application as Exhibit D. Wastewater return flows are assumed to accrue to the stream in the same month as they are pumped from the District’s wells. Applicant’s engineers completed a lawn irrigation return flow lagging analysis in IDS AWAS using the Glover Method. Three lawn irrigation return flow zones were created based on unique aquifer parameters. Based on an estimated number of acres in each zone to be irrigated from the District’s potable system, which may be subject to adjustment as actual build-out occurs, Applicant’s engineer calculated the schedule of lagged lawn irrigation return flows set forth in Table 5. Potable irrigation augmented hereunder may occur throughout the District’s current and future service area. For purposes of this plan, all lagged irrigation return flow credits are claimed to accrue at or above the downstream Exchange 2 Lower Terminus identified on Exhibit D. Augmentation Requirements. Table 5 shows the anticipated schedule of monthly municipal water demands and stream depletions associated with the remaining

build-out of the District. The District’s anticipated build-out well demands of 1,448.81 acre-feet per year result in net stream depletions of 292.84 acre-feet per year. Historically, a call has not been placed on the Roaring Fork River below the confluence with the Fryingpan River, and no such call is expected to occur. However, the augmented water rights may be subject to a downstream senior “Cameo Call” on the Colorado River. To account for dry-year scenarios and other potential influences, a conservative potential call period of April 15-May 15 and June 15-November 7 is applied to the plan. Table 6, attached to the application, details the anticipated schedule of out-of-priority stream depletions and augmentation requirements for Applicant’s remaining build-out water uses. Potential out-of-priority depletions that may occur under a dry-year river call from downstream senior water rights on the Colorado River are estimated to be 209.76 acre-feet per year. Applicant will augment its out-of-priority depletions with (i) the bypass of water associated with historical consumptive use credits from the water rights changed in this case, (ii) the bypass of water associated with previously decreed historical consumptive use credits from other cases, and (iii) releases of water stored in Ruedi Reservoir, all according to the Augmentation Plan Summary set forth in Table 6. After applying historical consumptive use credits of 136.92 acre-feet per year to the plan, Applicant will have 16.44 acre-feet of excess consumptive use credits that it may apply to a later plan for augmentation. In order to replace remaining depletions under the plan, Applicant will dedicate 76.48 acre-feet of water stored in Ruedi Reservoir to this plan for augmentation, which amount includes 5 percent for transit losses. Volumetric Limit of Augmented Water Rights. Total District demands under the Consolidated Case equal 847.233 acrefeet per year. As a result of this plan, the Applicant has increased the volume of water it can augment and, therefore, the demands it can serve. Accordingly, Applicant requests that any volumetric limit associated with the augmented water rights described above be increased in accordance with this plan to a total volumetric demand of 2,296.043 acre-feet per year from any one or a combination of the wells. No change in the decreed pumping rate for any of the wells is requested hereby. Claim for Appropriation Rights of Exchange. Applicant claims appropriative rights of exchange associated with its wastewater return flows, lagged irrigation return flows, and bypass of historical consumptive use credits from the Arlian Ditch No. 2 and the Robinson and Harris Ditch, all of which are attributed to the Roaring Fork River below the location where Applicant’s well depletions are assumed to accrue. Description of Wastewater Return Flow Exchange: At times when a valid senior call against the Augmented Water Rights originates downstream of the point of discharge of Applicant’s wastewater treatment plant, Applicant claims an appropriative right of exchange associated with its wastewater return flow. Location: The affected stream reach of the exchange is the Roaring Fork River from the Wastewater Treatment Plant outflow discharge (“Exchange 1 Lower Terminus”) to the upstream-most location of well depletions (“Upper Terminus”), the locations of which are shown on Exhibit D and described below.

Date of Appropriation: July 31, 2017. How appropriation was initiated: Formation of intent to appropriate water for the exchange, passing of resolution authorizing the filing of the application, and completion and filing of application. Rate of Exchange: 4.35 c.f.s., conditional (associated with decreed pumping rates of wells). Volume of Exchange: 1,101.76 acre-feet per year. Use: Municipal. Description of Lagged Irrigation Return Flows and Historical Consumptive Use Credits Exchange: Future irrigation demands augmented hereunder may occur anywhere within the District’s future service area. Accordingly, irrigation return flows are assumed to accrue to the Roaring Fork River downstream of the anticipated build-out boundary, where Garfield County Road 100 (CR 100) crosses the Roaring Fork River. See Exhibit D. Further, the bypass of historical consumptive use credits associated with Applicant’s Arlian Ditch No. 2 and Robinson and Harris Ditch rights changed herein accrue to the Roaring Fork River at its confluence with Blue Creek (which is upstream of where CR 100 crosses the Roaring Fork River). At times when a valid senior call against the Augmented Water Rights originates downstream of the location where CR 100 crosses the Roaring Fork River, Applicant claims an appropriative right of exchange associated with such irrigation return flows and bypass of historical consumptive use credits. Location: The affected stream reach of the exchange is the Roaring Fork River from where CR 100 crosses the Roaring Fork River (“Exchange 2 Lower Terminus”) to the upstream-most location of well depletions (“Upper Terminus”), the locations of which are shown on Exhibit D and described above. Date of Appropriation: July 31, 2017. How appropriation was initiated: Formation of intent to appropriate water for the exchange, passing of resolution authorizing the filing of the application, and completion and filing of application. Rate of Exchange: 4.35 c.f.s., conditional (associated with decreed pumping rates of wells).

Volume of Exchange: 54.21 acre-feet per year from lagged irrigation return flows. 47.32 acre-feet per year from HCU credits. Use: Municipal. Third Claim. Application for Alternative Points of Diversion. The Applicant requests to decree alternate points of diversion for some of its wells as follows: Structures for which alternate points of diversion are sought: MVMD Well No. 4, described above. MVMD Well Nos. 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 12, described above. Proposed alternate points of diversion: Juniper Well, Willow Well, and Chokecherry Well, the locations of which are described above. Names and addresses of owners or reputed owners of the land upon which any new diversion or storage structure, or modification to any existing diversion or storage structure is or will be constructed or upon which water is or will be stored, including any modification to the existing storage pool: Juniper Well, Willow Well, and Chokecherry Well: Brenda Broxton, P.O.

BOOK REVIEW

‘SEEING RED’

NOTEWORTHY

A MAN’S HEROIC ACT in the past has ramifications in the present in “Seeing Red,” Sandra Brown’s latest collision of suspense and romance.

Kerra Bailey, a television journalist, wants to interview Major Franklin Trapper. Twenty-five years earlier, he saved several people, including a little girl, after a hotel bombing. He gave many interviews, and every time there was another major incident, he became the spokesperson for heroism. A few years ago, he became a recluse and quit answering his phone. Bailey was the little girl he saved that day, and her identity has been a secret. She was going to reveal the truth during their sit-down

session in front of cameras.

The Major’s son, John, has a strained relationship with his father, and it boils down to him not believing the official events of that day. His obsession for the truth has cost him his job with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, a fiancee and the Major’s respect. Now Bailey has been pushing him to get her access to his father, her rescuer.

The pursuit of the interview seems innocuous as first, but there are some people who will do anything to keep quiet what really happened 25 years ago. John was a lot closer to the truth than he realizes, and it could cost everyone their lives.

“Seeing Red” Sandra Brown Grand Central Publishing, 2017

Brown’s story mixes thrills with mystery and a spicy sex scene or two.

She has a talent for making the reader think that too much information has been revealed early in the story, eliminating any possibility for suspense, but the conspiracy is so multilayered, the reveal is a tiny part of the overall picture.

Strong characters and an emotional narrative make this one of Brown’s best books in years.
