Read the eEdition http://issuu.com/theaspentimes

A few months ago, a debate began locally about marijuana edibles — were they harming our children, should they be banned locally, and the like was at the crux of the discussion. But as reporter Jason Auslander learned, edibles might not be the enemy people believed them to be.

THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

BY ANDREW TRAVERS

POPULAR MUSIC ASPEN’S SUMMER SEASON comes to a melodic close over Labor Day weekend with the valley’s biggest pop music concerts of the year and some of the most high-profile acts in the history of Jazz Aspen.

The nonprofit’s Jazz Aspen Snowmass Labor Day Experience runs from Friday afternoon through Friday night at Snowmass Town Park.

Doors open Friday at 5 p.m.

Andy Grammer, the voice behind last year’s triple-platinum hit “Honey, I’m Good” opens the main-stage concerts at 6 p.m. followed by Train, the San Francisco-based band making its second headlining appearance at the festival.

Friday and Saturday nights’ festivities also include a “Silent Disco” after-party on the festival grounds.

The main stage triple-bill Saturday opens with Austin-based hard blues duo Black Pistol Fire (3 p.m.) followed by the eclectic local favorites Thievery Corporation (5 p.m.) with Las Vegas hitmakers The Killers closing out the night at 7:30 p.m. Festival ticketholders also get exclusive access to The Killers show Friday night at Belly Up Aspen. That show is scheduled to start at 10 p.m.

On Sunday, the festival closes on a high note with breakout British songstress Corinne Bailey Rae (3 p.m.) followed by the legendary new wave pioneers Duran Duran (5 p.m.) and closing with the great Stevie Wonder (7:30 p.m.) in a landmark performance.

“Stevie Wonder is, without question, the most important and iconic artist to ever headline JAS,” Jazz Aspen founder and president Jim Horowitz said when the lineup was announced in March. For more on Stevie Wonder, see our story on page 30.

Jazz Aspen is upping the profile of the festival experience with a chance to meet the Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos on Saturday afternoon between Black Pistol Fire and Thievery Corporation. The event includes team executives and alumni, offering a “chalk talk” and autographs.

Tickets run from $69.95 to $89.95 for one-day tickets, with three-day passes available for $249.95. Broncos Experience tickets are $100. They’re available at 866-527-8499 and www.jazzaspensnowmass.org.

The Killers will play Belly Up Aspen on Friday night and will headline the Jazz Aspen Snowmass Labor Day Experience on Saturday.

CURRENTEVENTS POPULAR MUSIC

Cellist and songwriter Ben Sollee will perform at Belly Up Aspen on Wednesday, Sept. 7.

POPULAR MUSIC Gipsy Kings will perform at Belly Up Aspen on Sunday Sept.

4 at 10 p.m.

IF YOU CAN’T GET ENOUGH live music at the festival, Belly Up has the Gipsy Kings in the club playing a late show Sunday, Sept.4.

The Latin-inflected pop greats — the guys behind the enduring “Bamboleo” — are scheduled to start their show at 10 p.m.

Tickets are $95 for general admission and $385 for reserved seats. Tickets are available at the Belly Up box office and www.bellyupaspen.com.

AND AFTER THE BIG FESTIVAL weekend comes and goes, Belly Up continues its lineup of compelling acts. One worth checking out is the innovative cellist and songwriter Ben Sollee, who plays the club Wednesday, Sept. 7.

Sollee’s has been acclaimed for his genre-bending style and his approach to releasing music (he’s been releasing the album “Steeples” in three distinct parts) and multimedia art (“Steeples” is accompanied by a virtual reality app of his making).

The show is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance, $12 the day of and are available at the Belly Up box office and www.bellyupaspen.com.

HOSPITAL HAPPEN INGS

1930 ASPEN

“HOSPITAL BENEFIT DANCE NEXT MONDAY EVENING,” advertised The Aspen Times on Sept. 2, 1927. “Aspen folks will celebrate Labor Day this year by attending the Hospital Benefit Dance Monday evening at Fraternal Hall. In what better manner could Labor Day be celebrated? None so far as can be figured out. Not only will the Aspen people be celebrating Labor Day, but they will at the same time do their part in giving financial aid to an institution whose doors are open at all times to alleviate the injuries or illness of the Aspen miners. So looking at it from all angles we cannot expend a dollar that will do more good than by buying a ticket for the Hospital Benefit Dance. And, having a ticket, each possessor can have the time of his life dancing to the inspiring music furnished by the McHugh Paramount orchestra. Everybody will be there.” The photograph above shows the Citizens Hospital in Aspen, circa 1930.

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

TRY IT: 9 GEAR TRENDS FOR 2017 FROM INTELLIGENT DRONES to “levitating” tents, the future of the outdoors industry is nothing if not unique. These trends and observations were culled from trade shows, industry events and research and development labs as a peek at what’s upcoming in outdoors gear.

1) TENTS WILL GET OFF THE GROUND From vehicle-mounted rooftop tents to enclosed, hammock-like shelters, sleeping outdoors is more elevated than ever. Rack behemoth Yakima announced entry into the rooftop-tent realm for 2017, bringing the longtime niche category into the mainstream.

2) DRONES WILL FOLLOW AND FILM Your own personal film crew? A new genre of camera-equipped drones that track their owner while skiing, biking or running become a reality soon from a few brands. One example, appropriately named the Staaker, is touted as “artificially intelligent” enough to auto-follow (and film) anyone at up to 50 mph.

3) BOOTS WILL STICK TO ICE A new rubber compound, Vibram’s Arctic Grip Sole, gives “up to three times better grip” on wet ice surfaces.

I tested a prototype last winter, and the technology works. Wolverine debuts the new kind of sole this fall in its Crossbuck FX Ice+ boots. Look for Arctic Grip on multiple brands in 2017.

4) YOUR T-SHIRT WILL COOL YOU So-called “cooling shirts” have been around. But next year, materials giant Polartec has a new take with Delta, a fabric that has hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers to disperse moisture and increase airflow. The shirt gets cooler once wet (from sweat) and was impressive in my prerelease test.

5) OUTERWEAR TO GET MORE ‘ECO’ From a PFC-free (and dye-free) jacket line by Columbia Sportswear, to the first mass-market wetsuit (by Patagonia) not made of neoprene, brands big and small continue to invent and push for ecologically friendly materials and manufacturing processes.

6) CLIMBING GEAR GETS SAFER The key safety piece in climbing, the belay device, gets an upgrade for 2017 from a few brands. Most notably, the Wild Country Revo has a new “bi-directional” auto-locking design to make belaying almost foolproof.

7) ‘INFLATABLE’ HAMMOCKS WILL BE EVERYWHERE Dutch brand Lamzac popularized a new kind of outdoors seating, dubbed “inflatable hammocks.” The air-filled couches were omnipresent at recent industry events, with more than a dozen companies involved in manufacturing and perpetuating the odd, cushiony trend.

8) B-CORPS GAIN STEAM Patagonia is the industry poster child for the benefit corporation designation, which entails a company legally committing to supporting environmental and humanitarian causes. Brands as diverse as Wylder, a women-focused startup, and energyfood maker Yumbutter are jumping aboard the benefit corporation ship.

9) SYNTHETIC INSULATION (STILL) AIMS AT DOWN The brand Primaloft and other insulation brands have long produced fluffy white stuff that traps warm air and mimics down in jackets and sleeping bags. For next year, another major player, ALLIED Feather & Down, after years of research and development, will leave its goose feathers out of the picture and introduce LOFTECH, which it claims to be the first synthetic to “truly mimic the structure of natural down.”

WINEINK

THE ANTINORIS NEW HOUSE THE WORLD’S MOST PRESTIGIOUS WINERY

IF ONE WERE INCLINED to debate who the “First Family of Wine” is, the discussion would likely begin and end with the Antinoris family of Tuscany.

Consider that members of the family have officially been in the art and business of producing and selling wines since at least 1385, when patriarch Giovanni di Piero Antinori first KELLY J. became a member of HAYES the Florentine Wine Guild in Italy. And over the past six centuries, 26 generations (and counting) of Antinoris have continued the pursuit of the family craft, establishing what is today one of the most prestigious companies of any kind on Earth.

So it was, a little over a decade ago, that the current generation of the family embarked on a journey to conceive and construct a space — a place of passion if you will — to celebrate the history of the dynasty and provide a home for the future growth of the company. The result, which opened just over three years ago, is a stunning and grand palace for wine that revels in beauty and efficiency and is the embodiment of the words written by this generation’s patriarch, Piero Antinori: “A winery is a solemn place, a temple devoted to the ancient rites of the grape.”

In 1995, Piero and his three daughters, Albiera, Allegra and Alessia, who today oversee the Antinori dynasty, purchased 186 acres of prime and pristine land south of Montalcino, between the historic cities of Florence and Siena, in the heart of the Chianti Classico wine region. The property was little more than a stone’s throw from the vineyards that are the home of the iconic Tignanello, where Piero changed Italian wines forever when he boldly chose a path of art over wine law by blending the regional sangiovese with cabernet.

Now, the family’s vision was to

12

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

F

produce a new icon. A property to make wine, welcome visitors, host world-class art and operate their business dealings under a single roof. And they wanted that roof to be under a vineyard in perfect harmony with the surroundings. Enlisting the talents of Italian architect Marco Casamonti and committing just over $100 million, they set about creating their dream.

On a hot July day this summer, I had the opportunity to visit, tour and taste at Marchesi Antinori Chianti Classico Cellars. It was an epic wine experience and one that anyone who loves wine, art and architecture would relish.

The road up to the winery winds gently through plantings of olive trees and does not prepare guests for the edifice that awaits. The structure, literally buried in the hillside, is nearly imperceptible until it’s actually reached. But once there it reveals itself as a powerful and imposing part of the landscape.

The arrival area and parking garage are encased in an immense earthen-concrete structure, whose hue and color mimics that of the surrounding soils. Elongated shafts of bright Tuscan sunlight pour through slits in the ceiling, sliding with the movement of the sun and illuminating the depths of the building. In the center is an enormous, signature curved and rusted steel walkway that takes guests up, up, up to their eventual arrival on a terrace looking out over the vineyards and vistas. It is a “wow” moment for all first-time visitors.

Entering the large, glass-walled reception area, a dichotomy emerges. On one hand, elegance and grandeur envelop visitors as the space feels a bit like that of a contemporary museum. But the minimalist materials, concrete, glass and steel combine with the clean lines of the obviously Italian design to provide a simpler feel. One that welcomes and beckons to visitors.

A tour takes guests through the winery itself, which is clean

S e pte m b e r 1 - S e pte m b e r 7, 20 16

The patio at Rinuccio 1180 allows diners to eat within a few feet of the vineyards.

and pristine with stainless steel fermentation tanks lined up side by side under the concrete walls.

Designed with utmost efficiency for the production of fine wine, the facility uses a gravity-flow system where the grapes arrive at the winery on the top floor, are hand sorted and destemmed, and the juice flows into the tanks below. All can be observed by guests during harvest.

Perhaps the most impressive location in the three-story building is the barrel room. Here the beauty of the wood, where the Antinori wines lie aging, awaiting they day they will be bottled and sent to the world, contrasts with the graceful and gentle curves of the concrete walls. In the center are cantilevered glass-box rooms that jut into the barrel room and host guest for tastings. The experience is awe-inspiring as it combines all of the elements, the materials, the design, and most importantly, the wines into a single moment.

In addition to the tasting room and vinification facilities, the Marchesi Antinori Chianti Classico Cellars houses an exceptional restaurant, Rinuccio 1180, which pairs the vast collection of Antinori wines with the hearty and distinct cuisine of the region, a curated art collection of contemporary works, and a museum that showcases the history of the family and Italian wine. Oh, and it also hosts the offices of the family business.

At the Marchesi Antinori Chianti Classico Cellars, this first family of wine has created a structure that is not only useful, innovative and inspiring, it is a monument to the Earth itself.

Kelly J. Hayes lives in the soon-to-be-designated appellation of Old Snowmass with his wife, Linda, and black Lab named Vino. He can be reached at malibukj@aol.com.

The silver mining boom — which counted Aspen as the largest silverproducing district annually in the U.S, turning out one-sixth of the national total, according to the Aspen Historical Society — AMANDA had gone bust, and the RAE town’s peak population (estimated between 10,000 to 16,000 in 1893) was in swift decline. Developer Jerome B. Wheeler, namesake of the Hotel Jerome and the Wheeler Opera House, was on the brink of bankruptcy, and Aspen Mountain, dotted with defunct mining claims and an ore tram over Spar Gulch, would remain undeveloped as a ski resort for more than three decades. The Quiet Years had arrived.

Meanwhile, in Manhattan, the opulent Gilded Age was in full swing. Caroline Astor, grande dame of New York City’s upper crust, threw a lavish, late-night affair at her Fifth Avenue home (site of the Empire State Building today) following a performance at the Metropolitan Opera House.

Matriarch of one of the richest, most well-connected society families, Astor invited some 400 of her closest friends to a decadent, 10-course meal followed by ballroom dancing. Astor’s “exclusive” Midnight Supper was born — and the extravagant fêtes she hosted over the years inspired son John Jacob Astor IV to build a hotel where they could continue into perpetuity: the St. Regis New York, in 1904.

On Thursday, Sept. 1, the St. Regis Aspen Resort reprises the storied tradition that has continued at the brand’s properties around the globe: the annual

Midnight Supper. Here the event has been adapted for modern times in the mountains: it’s held at 8 p.m., instead of peak witching hour; by candlelight in the hotel’s courtyard instead of a stuffy ballroom; and capped at 35 guests (tickets to the event, $350, are nearly sold out).

Instead of fine wine, as Mrs. Astor fancied, the five-course meal will be accompanied by Buffalo Trace Distillery bourbon of varying ages — including pours from its limited-edition Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve (13-year and 23-year). Instead of jazz, East Coast-based old-time country band the Howling Kettles will perform following the meal.

Though Midnight Suppers here at the St. Regis Aspen Resort began as private events for special clients, the property opened them to the public last summer as a way to share the hotel’s reputation as a group of world-class hotels united by ritual.

“Everything we do is with intention, to be, in some way, a legacy,” says St. Regis marketing manager Meredith Schurch. “We cherish the timeless traditions we carry out every day. Every St. Regis [around the world] sabers a bottle of Champagne. Every St. Regis has a Bloody Mary recipe.

Every St. Regis has a unique mural above the bar.” (See “Traditions Over Time,” opposite page, to learn more.)

The Midnight Supper is also the first major event at the St. Regis Aspen Resort — notwithstanding the mind-bogglingly diverse Sunday brunch, the resort’s latest ritual, which began a few weeks ago — at which new executive chef Samir Roonwall will be able to flex his style with a special menu. (Ditto for new executive pastry chef Carolina Polo, one of our town’s most talented confectioners.) Though Roonwall, a 30-year industry veteran with stints in Dubai and Toronto, is

Caroline Astor, grande dame of New York City’s upper crust and host of the original “Midnight Supper.”

a huge fan of Asian cuisine and plans to revamp the Trecento Quindici Decano menu in coming months with more international flavors, the Midnight Supper menu will showcase American standards — with a few surprises.

“The theme is going to be bringing some classics back and presenting them with our own unique twist,” Roonwall says. The first course, Romaine hearts, for example, is his take on Caesar salad.

Roonwall looked to the history of the Midnight Supper in selecting wagyu steak and Colorado striped bass — though he’ll punch up the local product with zippy coriander chimichurri and pickled cherries-plus-peach salsa, respectively.

“We are placing the vegetable component before the main course,” Roonwall shares of the third dish, stated simply as “peas and carrots.” “Just something that we came up with that creates a positive influence on the entrée and makes it a bit more exciting.

They are not spiced, but will be infused with some herbal oils.”

The third course, “quinoa,

seafood, and crispy things,” sounds straight out of 2016, adding texture à la crunchy, dehydrated ingredients.

Of course, an Astor-inspired gathering wouldn’t be a party without ample booze. Following Sazerac cocktails to kick off the evening, “We’ll have some really rare bottles of Pappy — for people to experience,” says St. Regis marketing manager Jessica Young.

“It’s like liquid gold.”

For dessert, Polo will prepare lychee chiboust — rich French custard with lavender meringue and passion fruit sauce — to pair with neat pours of hearty George T. Stagg whiskey, aged in new charred oak barrels for at least 15 years.

“It’s so special,” Young says.

“The Midnight Supper [harks to an era] of unfathomable wealth and bespoke experiences. It’s not every day you can sit in the courtyard here and have this really intimate dinner with special pairings.” amandaraewashere@gmail.com

TRADITIONS OVER TIME “You can appreciate the concept of the Midnight Supper more when you understand how it fits into the St. Regis brand,” says St. Regis Aspen Resort marketing manager Jessica Young. “It’s timeless, yet still relevant in a very contemporary way.”

Daily and annual rituals have come to define St. Regis Hotels & Resorts around the world.

Here’s a sampling: AFTERNOON TEA Caroline Astor hosted afternoon tea with her elite group of friends frequently during New York’s Gilded Age. Now every St. Regis around the globe hosts afternoon tea (in Aspen, 4-6 p.m.), inviting guests to enjoy distinct interpretations of this English legacy. Each property’s tea service is inspired by the respective traditions of each location — think: iced tea poolside in Bali or a formal Japanese tea ceremony in Osaka, Japan.

SIGNATURE BLOODY MARY Though the true origins of the Bloody Mary cocktail remain unclear, Fernand Petiot, bartender at The St. Regis New York’s legendary King Cole Bar, perfected his recipe for a vodka and tomato juice cocktail he called the Bloody Mary in 1934. (He claims to have invented it in Paris in 1921.)

Since the name “Bloody Mary” was deemed inappropriate for the hotel’s sophisticated clientele, it was rechristened as the Red Snapper. Today it remains the signature cocktail of St. Regis Hotels & Resorts — each property crafts its own interpretation of the original with different spirits and spices. Try the St. Regis Aspen Resort’s version, the Downhill Red Snapper, infused with fresh basil and dill garnished with two olives and a pickle, in the Shadow Mountain Lounge.

CHAMPAGNE SABERING Every afternoon around 5:15 p.m. in summer and 4:45 p.m. in winter, the St. Regis Aspen Resort head butler marks the transition from day to evening by sabering a bottle of Champagne in the courtyard.

The tradition began when John Jacob Astor IV founded the first St. Regis in New York in 1904, and it’s one that happens at all properties before sunset.

LOBBY BAR MURAL Since the “Old King Cole” mural by artist Maxfield Parrish was hung at the St. Regis New York in 1932, each St. Regis resort features a showpiece work by a local artist over its lobby bar. “Strong Wind: the Myth of the Aspen Trees” by Bo Bartlett (2013), unveiled in December 2013 in Aspen’s Shadow Mountain Lounge (pictured left), depicts a Native American folk tale of a young warrior seeking true love.

HOLIDAY TREE LIGHTING Held annually in the St. Regis Aspen Resort courtyard (this year on Dec. 17 at 5-7 p.m.), this complimentary community tradition features the Aspen High School Choir and Band, photos with Santa Claus, holiday cookies, festive beverages, a dual Champagne sabering, and more.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

Work and vacation: A tough balance for millennials?

VACATION ALL WE NEVER WANTED

HOW GENERATION Y MAY BE DAMAGING VACATION CULTURE FOR EVERYBODY MILLENNIALS ARE ENTITLED. We grew up in a world of “yes.” Our parents told us we could be whatever we wanted and so we assumed that was true. No need to put in any real effort. Because of this, we are lazy. Plus, we get distracted easily and we want, no we expect, special privileges.

We’ve all heard this spiel on millennials in one form or another.

However, Project: BARBARA PLATTS Time Off, a national movement started by the U.S. Travel Association that’s goal is to promote the importance of paid time off to Americans, recently came out with a report that contradicts these stereotypes.

Apparently, when it comes to work, the youngest generation in the workforce isn’t lazy; we are obsessed.

In this 24-hour news cycle where something is always happening, we feel the need to put in endless hours and disregard our PTO. So much so that we have created an era of “work martyrdom.” What quantifies an “era?” Well, Project: Time Off estimates that 55 percent of Americans did not use all of their PTO in 2015, meaning 658 million vacation days went unused. That can’t be good for anyone, especially airline and sunblock companies.

So is this report even true? Is this

how millennials, and their older coworkers, feel? And, if it is, does it apply to the younger generation that lives in Aspen? I took to the streets to ask professional Aspen millennials what they thought. Note: by “took to the streets,” I mean I sent friends and acquaintances the link to the article via text and asked them what they thought personally (#themillennialway).

As was probably expected, I got varying opinions. I share them below, however I have decided to keep everyone who I talked with anonymous because some requested to be so and others, well, I wouldn’t want to potentially get them in trouble with their jobs. It is a small town, after all.

One of my friends who works several restaurant jobs said, for him, this study couldn’t be further from the truth.

“I work all summer and travel afterwards,” he said. “I think everyone should travel when they can.

When I’m holidaying, I don’t work.

Experience is far more important than money to me. F*ck work!”

The seasonal tendencies of this town certainly make a difference for many young professionals, particularly those in the hospitality industry. Whether they want to or not most bartenders, waiters and hostesses are required to take some time off in the fall and the spring.

For the millennials who work “real jobs,” or jobs that don’t necessarily have designated off time, the story can be a bit different. A friend of mine who works a corporate retail job in town said she also had a different perspective from the article/report, but that is because she is lucky to have a boss that ensures she gets all of her vacation days. She also said that she works on being diligent about taking her allotted time off.

Still, I dug deeper. I knew my personal views on this report. I have always had trouble asking for time off. Even when I have vacation days, I still find myself committing to getting tasks done. I check my email often, feeling like there’s something wrong with everyone else working except me. I don’t know if this is because I’m a millennial and I feel like I have to disprove stereotypes, or if it’s simply part of my personality.

Perhaps it’s a mixture of the two.

Another friend of mine, who works in public relations in the valley, said that she completely agreed with the article and the report, and she explained it more eloquently than I probably did.

“I would say that Aspen millennials most certainly are workaholics. Many people in the hospitality industry work two, three, even four jobs,” she explained. “That being said, Aspen millennials work

hard to play hard.”

If we zoomed out and looked past Aspen, she thinks that there’s a stigma in corporate America that 40 hours per week is the bare minimum someone should be working.

“Particularly in this age of smartphones, we are expected to be connected all of the time, either to email, text or phone calls,” she said.

But she did continue to say that, regarding Aspen, we are lucky to live in a place where we can escape via outdoor activities. I agree with her completely.

For this story, I talked with several others about their views on this matter. Some agreed, some disagreed. Some were too busy at work to take the time to answer.

Go figure …

As with most studies that surface about millennials, everyone has a different opinion as to the accuracy of the results. We may never all see eye to eye. However, I think we can all agree on one thing: vacations are very important and should be prioritized by all workaholics, no matter their age.

Happy vacation season.

Barbara Platts has not yet booked her fall vacation, but she is perusing her options. Thoughts?

VOYAGES

ESCAPE ARTIST | GATEWAY,COLORADO

by LAUREN GLENDENNING

IN GATEWAY, A DESERT OASIS IS CALLING

FIND EVERYTHING YOU’RE LOOKING FOR IN A VACATION JUST THREE HOURS FROM ASPEN IT’S A SUNNY SATURDAY and we’re ripping around one of the most beautiful desert landscapes I’ve ever seen in a Polaris RZR. We’re not in Sedona or Moab or Lake Powell — we’re in a place arguably more beautiful but without the tacky fudge shops or T-shirt stores. The best part is that we’re only a three-hour drive away from Aspen.

My boyfriend Ryan and I have traveled the world together —Tokyo, Sri Lanka, The Maldives, Borneo, Vietnam, Bali, Cambodia, to name a few — roughing it one day and living the lap of luxury the next. We have become accustomed to just about every tier of travel, with luxury obviously taking the cake, but it’s rare for the resort to be the main destination.

We had been to Gateway, Colorado, once before after leaving Moab roughly six or seven years ago and taking the scenic route home. I had heard of Gateway because of its auto museum, but that was before the majority of the spectacular Gateway Canyons Resort was built. As a Formula 1 fan myself, and with Ryan as an aficionado of just about all steam or combustion engine machines, a car museum set against the red rocks of western Colorado seemed like a great place to visit.

And that it was — but that was then.

Since we were last there in 2009 or 2010, the place has morphed into one of the most magnificent properties I’ve ever seen, with its adobe-style

18

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

F

southwestern architecture, a sublime main pool, impressive views of the Palisade rock formation and five different canyons, and luxury casitas that’ll make you never want to leave.

General Manager Rudy Sharp said it best when he described the resort as a place where you can experience things you don’t typically get to do anywhere else.

Owned by Discovery Channel founder John Hendricks, Gateway Canyons started out as a small inn with the auto museum — which features more than 50 cars from Hendricks’ private collection on display in a 30,000-square-foot facility — as the main attraction. Fast forward a little more than a decade after the resort first opened and now the property has grown into a resort with 72 rooms, multiple restaurants, two pools, a spa, events center, amphitheater and more.

And while a stay in the rooms is lovely — don’t miss the sprawling casitas with private patios, vaulted open-beam ceilings, outdoor showers and high-end finishes throughout — it’s the stuff you can do at this resort that makes it stand out.

Stuff like driving a Bentley Continental Supersport or a Ford GT through awe-inspiring scenery for the day, or a helicopter tour that shows off this stunning landscape from above.

Or a RZR tour up a dirt road toward Moab, where about 40 minutes of climbing delivers you to an overlook

S e pte m b e r 1 - S e pte m b e r 7, 20 16

that almost looks fake. More daring drivers can follow guides along for some serious off-roading adventures, too.

But it doesn’t stop there. This place offers ATV’s, guided mountain biking or hiking trips, sport shooting, horseback riding, wine country tours and fishing trips, just to name a few of the things you can fill your days with.

I used to think of Gateway as a place for a weekend getaway — and it most certainly can be exactly that — but you could stay for a week or longer and never run out of exciting things to do.

But when you want to slow things down, this resort offers serenity, too, like its full-service spa or relaxing pools. And any car lover could spend hours walking through the museum, imagining yourself driving down Highway 141 with the top down on your 1932 Auburn 8-100A Boattail Speedster, or hitting a banked turn in Jimmie Johnson’s NASCAR Chevrolet championship car at high speeds. This auto museum is something special, and its location would make anyone wonder, “How in the world did this auto museum end up way out here?”

That’s a question only Hendricks could answer, but it’s not the point. The point is that it’s there and it’s awesome.

Combining Gateway with a Moab adventure or a mountain biking trip to Fruita works — we combined it on this trip with a stop in Palisade

at the annual peach festival — but what we found is that Gateway is the destination all on its own. Choose it for adventure, relaxation, a special occasion or just because.

TEMPEST IN A ARE POT EDIBLES IN PITKIN COUNTY EVEN A PROBLEM?

BY JASON AUSLANDER

P H O T O B Y LY N N G O L D S M I T H

BACK IN MARCH, Pitkin County commissioners and Sheriff Joe DiSalvo began a unique discussion about marijuana edibles.

They wondered why most edibles come the form of sweet treats like cookies, chocolates and gummi bears. If you want to eat cannabis, they asked, can’t you just take a pill and dispense with the sugary desserts that appeal to children?

Because that was their main concern — keeping marijuana edibles, which can be easily mistaken for regular treats, out of the hands of young children.

Those questions led to a 90-minute roundtable discussion with DiSalvo, county health officials and a youth counselor during a mid-March work session. At the end of that meeting, commissioners asked DiSalvo and the Valley Marijuana Council, a group DiSalvo co-founded to promote responsible marijuana use, to come up with specific proposals to further regulate and possibly ban edible cannabis products in Pitkin County.

Now, nearly six months later, DiSalvo and the marijuana council

are struggling to determine not only what those proposals might be — but whether marijuana edibles are even a problem in Pitkin County and the Roaring Fork Valley.

“We have spent a long time examining this and looking for something we can sink our teeth into,” DiSalvo said in a recent interview. “And we’re still looking.

“We’re still trying to identify if there’s a problem.”

Lori Mueller, executive director of YouthZone, which counsels local middle and high school kids who have gotten into trouble with alcohol or drugs, agreed. “At first I was really excited (and thought), ‘Let’s get rid of these stupid cookies,’” Mueller said. “It made a lot of sense to me at the time.”

Now that she’s had time to look into the issue, she said she’s not sure banning or further regulating marijuana edibles is worth the time and effort.

“Most of the kids we see are using marijuana. ... Their preferred way is smoking it though,” Mueller said.

“So (marijuana) is an issue (for kids), but I’m not sure edibles is an issue.”

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

CANDY CONUNDRUM About a week after the edibles discussion in mid-March, commissioners denied a local woman’s application to manufacture cannabis-infused candies and other sweet products at a kitchen at the Aspen Business Center.

While they were concerned about the facility’s proximity to a daycare center, the commissioners’ main objections centered on the business’ proposed products and their appeal to children.

“Things that look like candy, smell like candy and taste like candy are too dangerous to my mind,” Commissioner Rachel Richards said at the time.

Commissioner Patti Clapper echoed those sentiments.

“I understand your products would be in child-proof containers, but I’m worried about (edible marijuana) products out of containers,” she told the woman whose application was later denied.

In May, however, the county board unanimously approved a local man’s application to produce cannabisinfused buffalo jerky at a facility at the Aspen Business Center.

Commissioner Michael Owsley said he was comfortable granting the infused jerky business a yearlong license, which would give the board time to consider recommendations from the Valley Marijuana Council and the community’s feelings.

Richards was the most reluctant to approve that application and told her colleagues she wanted to re-examine codes that appear to welcome people to set up marijuanaedible businesses in Pitkin County.

“I would like to make this our last (edibles) facility,” Richards said. “I want the board to talk seriously about eliminating that.”

BY THE NUMBERS DiSalvo said one of the main reasons he questions whether accidental ingestion of marijuana edibles by young children is even a problem in Pitkin County has to do with the law of averages.

“When I look at the amount of edible marijuana sold in Pitkin County compared with the number of hospital visits,” he said, “it makes me wonder if the problem’s as rampant as we believe it is, as far as edibles and overdoses.”

To get an idea what he’s talking about, it’s helpful to take a look at a few numbers.

Greg Schoenfeld works for

LOCAL MARIJUANA POISONING CASES* (TYPES OF POISONING NOT SPECIFIED)

a market research company in Denver called BDS Analytics, Inc., which has been able to tap into and track sales at 100 Colorado marijuana dispensaries. From that data, his company has been able to determine that, statewide, 56 percent of sales come from flower or smokable marijuana, 21 percent come from concentrates or oils and 14 percent come from edibles.

Next, we look at statistics from the city of Aspen, which tell us that dispensaries in town sold $8.35 million worth of marijuana in 2015.

Fourteen percent of $8.35 million is $1.7 million, a rough estimate of how much marijuana-edible product was sold in Aspen last year.

If we assume that each of those purchases averaged $25, that means there were 46,760 individual edible marijuana sales in Aspen in 2015.

Now, we turn to Aspen Valley Hospital, which tracks the number

of marijuana-poisoning cases doctors treat every year but doesn’t discern between the type of marijuana product that caused the poisoning, hospital spokesperson Ginny Dyche said. In other words, the hospital can’t say whether edibles, concentrates or flower were responsible for the cases it sees.

Nonetheless, the numbers are revealing.

In 2014, AVH treated 16 people for marijuana poisoning, with four of the cases involving someone 19 years old and younger. Seventeen people were treated for the problem in 2015, including two who were 19 and younger. So far this year, 21 people have been treated for marijuana poisoning, though just one was 19 or younger, according to the hospital’s statistics.

If we take the 2015 edibles sales numbers and assume that 100 percent of last year’s marijuana

poisoning hospital visits were caused by ingesting edibles, that means 0.036 percent of those who bought edible marijuana products in Aspen last year ended up in the hospital for marijuana poisoning.

If we look at how many children 19 and younger ended up in the hospital in 2015, we discover that 0.004 percent of sales led to the poisoning of a child.

“Do these numbers constitute a ban?” DiSalvo said. “Is it something to be so reactionary over as to consider a ban on edibles?”

The sheriff said he doesn’t want to see anyone end up in the hospital. However, he pointed out that hundreds of people have spent time in the county’s alcohol detox facility during the past few years.

“Does X number of detoxes constitute a ban on alcohol?” DiSalvo said.

Alcohol sales in Aspen, by the way, outpaced marijuana sales by just $1.25 million in 2015, according to city statistics.

CHANGES AHEAD DiSalvo also pointed to recent legislation passed by the state, which he said constitutes reasonable and responsible ways to curb accidental edibles ingestion.

The first of those laws took effect July 1 and banned all marijuana edibles in the shape of people, animals or fruits, so goodbye pot gummi bears. The second, which will go into effect Oct. 1, requires all edibles to be

stamped with a “THC” symbol.

A recently published study from the Denver area sheds more light on the subject.

That study looked at the number of kids who have gone to Children’s Hospital in Denver after accidentally ingesting marijuana, as well as calls to one Front Range poison control center.

It found that emergency room visits nearly doubled from 1.2 per 100,000 in the two years prior to legalization to 2.3 per 100,000 in 2014 and 2015.

The number of poison control calls increased from nine in 2009 to 47 in 2015, a more than five-fold increase, according to the study published in the JAMA Pediatrics medical journal.

Most of those cases involved infused edibles — which kids got from family members, friends or a babysitter — that were not in childproof packaging or came as the result of poor child supervision or poor edibles storage, according to the study.

Still, the study points out that accidental marijuana ingestion is responsible for a small number of overall accidental exposures.

Sixteen kids ages 9 and under went to the emergency room for the problem in 2015, which accounts for six of every 1,000 visits for accidental ingestion, the study states. Poison control center calls for the same group account for two of every 1,000 calls, according to the study.

The median age of the children who ingested the marijuana was about 2 years old for both the emergency room visits and the poison control center calls, according to the study.

WHO’S RESPONSIBLE? Joe Hodas, chief marketing officer of Denver-based edibles producer Dixie Elixirs and Edibles, called those numbers “a minor, minor drop in the bucket” compared to ingestion of other poisonous household products like laundry detergent “pods.”

He also pointed out that no amount of edibles stamping — which likely couldn’t be read by a 2-yearold anyway — or shape-changing — a 2-year-old is not likely to pass up a gummi “disc” either — can trump parental responsibility.

“Here’s the thing … the best way to keep it out of the hands of kids is to keep it out of the hands of kids,” Hodas said. “To leave an unwrapped product on the counter in reach of kids is unlawful.”

OPPOSITE PAGE: Alec Orr, manager of the Native Roots dispensary in Aspen, believes education is the key to safe edible use.

THIS PAGE: Joe Hodas, chief marketing officer of Denver-based edibles producer Dixie Elixirs, says it’s incumbent on parents to keep edibles away from their children.

P H O T O B Y LY N N G O L D S M I T H

DiSalvo agreed.

“If you’re a parent and you have a 4-year-old in the house, it’s incumbent on you to keep it away from them,” he said. “The responsibility clearly lies on parents to secure the product.”

As for older kids — those in middle and high school — Mueller said she’s not worried.

“Kids are telling us they’re not that interested in edibles,” she said. “When they want to get high, they want to get high (now).

They don’t want to wait an hour.

“They’re not into having a glass of wine and a cookie.”

Tharyn Mulberry, principal at Aspen High School, seconded those comments, saying his staff doesn’t often catch students with marijuana edibles. During the 2015-2016 school year, he said less than five students were caught with edibles.

“It’s not the primary (source of

ingestion) at all,” Mulberry said.

The most common method of marijuana ingestion by students Mulberry said he runs into is smoking, followed by the use of vaporizers, then edibles. In fact, he said he thinks the use of vaporizers is far more likely to increase in the future among high school students because they are so easily concealed.

“I wonder how many adults even know what a vape pen looks like,” Mulberry said.

EDIBLES 101 Accidental ingestion by adults makes up the vast majority of cases seen at Aspen Valley Hospital since 2014, according to the statistics.

Alec Orr, manager of the Native Roots dispensary in Aspen, said he’s been working in the industry since legalization began in 2014.

He said he used to receive frequent calls from people who ingested too much edible marijuana product.

However, since the state passed a law requiring each serving to contain no more than 10 milligrams, those calls have stopped.

“That made a huge difference,” Orr said.

Education efforts have increased too, which helps, he said.

Native Roots, which has stores across the state, hands out a flier with recommendations for edibles titled “Know Your Limits.” It includes recommended low dosing levels for beginners and instructions

to wait between 30 minutes and two hours for edibles to take effect.

“Right now we’re all about education,” he said. “It takes a lot of time to educate people.”

As for the question of edibles coming in the form of sweet treats rather than simply a pill to swallow — Orr said people want to enjoy the ingestion and not think of it as medicine.

DiSalvo said he’s been told the act of eating marijuana-infused products becomes ritualistic for some connoisseurs.

Hodas of Dixie Elixirs said sweet treats have been part of marijuana culture “as long as it’s been around.”

Legalization did not lead to the advent of cookies, brownies and other sugary creations, he said.

“Adults enjoy these products,” he said. “Taking a pill is not an experience.”

Whether commissioners do anything about marijuana edibles remains to be seen. DiSalvo said he and the Valley Marijuana Council are shooting for mid-September to bring any possible recommendations to

both Pitkin County commissioners and the Aspen City Council.

However, it remains to be seen exactly what those recommendations might be.

“I’m now leaning toward thinking (any problems with kids and edibles) can be fixed with responsible storage,” DiSalvo said. jauslander@aspentimes.com

Sweet Mary Janes, candy bar-like packaging and eye-catching displays might make edibles attractive to kids, but local officals — and statewide statistics — beg the questions: Is there enough of a problem to ban them?

The SOCIAL SIDE of TOWN

AN EVENING ON THE LAKE

MAY SELBY

ON A RESPLENDENT mid-summer night, friends and supporters of Aspen Center for Environmental Studies gathered for an “Evening on the Lake” on July 14.

The 25-acre nature preserve in the heart of Aspen, donated by ACES founder Elizabeth Paepcke in 1968 when she started the non-profit, was as verdant as ever while the sun-dappled Hallam Lake sparkled in the evening light. During cocktail hour, guests mingled, admired the resident red-tailed hawk and eagle who bore witness to the festivities, posed for party pix amidst life-size ACES letters and animal props, enjoyed appetizers from Chef Mark Fischer and varietals from Margerum Wine Company.

As the 2016 honoree, M. Sanjayan, executive vice president and senior scientist at Conservation International, served as keynote speaker during dinner. Throughout the evening, canoe rides were available to all to take a peaceful tour and closer look at life on the preserve. As ACES’ primary summer benefit, the event raises funds for environmental science education programs offered to the entire community — both local and visiting, from schoolchildren to leaders and decision makers. Save the date for next year’s An Evening on the Lake, Thursday, July 13, 2017.

In the interim, be sure to pencil two upcoming ACES events on your calendar:

the Fall Colors Membership Potluck (Sept. 22 at the Catto Center at Toklat); and the Harvest Party at Rock Bottom Ranch (Oct. 15), which is a fundraiser for ACES Ed. ACES Ed are environmental science education classes that are curriculum-integrated and offered every day in Aspen, Basalt and Crystal River elementary schools, as well as field science programs for 48 regional schools.

HOW JAZZ ASPEN LANDED STEVIE WONDER LOCAL JAZZ EDUCATION PROGRAMS ENTICED THE MUSIC ICON TO PLAY LABOR DAY

BOOKING STEVIE WONDER to headline the Jazz Aspen Snowmass Labor Day Experience quite literally took 26 years of work for the local music nonprofit.

The pop music legend tours rarely.

This year he scheduled just five performances around the globe — four of them at venues much bigger than the cozy 11,000-head capacity at Snowmass Town Park. So how did Jazz Aspen land Stevie Wonder?

It turns out that the organization’s long history of supporting jazz education — stretching back to the days of its Thelonious Monk Institute Jazz Colony — is what convinced the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, according to Jazz Aspen founder and president Jim Horowitz.

The organization has periodically invited Wonder here over the past twoand-a-half decades.

“We really never got to first base,” Horowitz told me earlier this summer.

Last winter they invited him again for Labor Day. Knowing that Wonder was not touring but was doing a handful of one-off festival spots, they thought they might actually have a shot this time around.

“It was driven by the conviction that we’ve gotten to the point where they wouldn’t laugh at this,” Horowitz says.

“We thought, ‘We can’t possibly afford him. He’s playing for 35,000 people in Napa and 100,000 in New Orleans. But maybe we should just try.’”

They made an offer (the sum of which Horowitz declined to disclose, only to say that it was a record high for the organization) and actually got a response from Wonder’s management team, which began a dialogue. They asked about what Jazz Aspen was, about its history, about the Labor Day festival, and such.

“It was clear to us that they were considering it and that was already like, ‘Holy shit!’” Horowitz recalls. “They usually won’t say anything or they’ll just say no.”

But as the calendar turned to February, communication went dark for a week. Without a lineup locked in, and without a definitive yes or no from Wonder, Horowitz was getting nervous. Eventually he sent a

note asking if Wonder was seriously considering headlining this relatively small festival in the mountains. The answer from Wonder’s manager, Keith Harris, said: “In this case I recommended he do this because of the music education and the history of supporting jazz artists like Ray Charles, Herbie Hancock, etc.”

The next day Wonder confirmed for the festival. Proud, Horowitz has taped the email to his wall.

“This for me, was 26 years of work,” he says. “Some people don’t get our bigger mission. But people that are in the industry know the difference and our track record is there. … The fact that he said, ‘Yes,’ and why he said ‘Yes,’ is huge.”

Horowitz sees bringing Wonder to town as a turning point for the organization that will open new doors to new talent and will expand the Labor Day Experience’s international profile. He compared it to booking Bob Dylan for Labor Day in 2002, after which the caliber of acts stepped up a level and soon included the likes of Neil Young and Tom Petty.

“It’s a game-changer for us,” he says.

Booking Stevie Wonder also is see a secret show that night featuring personal for Horowitz.

He was young and gorgeous, and I was like, ‘Oh my God!’” Forty-four years later, in April, Horowitz went to see Wonder headline the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.

INTELLIGENT EXERCISE

by OLINE H. COGDILL for THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOOK REVIEW

‘THE DARKEST SECRETY’ THE DISAPPEARANCE of a child whose body is never found eventually implodes a family as well as a circle of friends. Yet perhaps even more chilling is how this horrid crime appears to have such little effect on the selfcentered patriarch in Alex Marwood’s compelling novel.

As “The Darkest Secret” poignantly delves into the aftermath of 3-yearold Coco Jackson’s disappearance, Marwood delivers an unexpected story.

This isn’t a family forever stymied by the grief that should come from the loss of a child. Rather, Marwood delivers a gripping cautionary tale about how one person’s dominating personality can infect those around him. “The Darkest Secret” also thoughtfully examines parents who, at best, are indifferent to their offspring and in many ways are more childish than their youngsters.

Reputations, careers and even pleasure

NOTEWORTHY ‘The Darkest Secret’ Alex Marwood Penguin Books, 2016 400 pages, paperback

are more important.

Uber-wealthy British real estate mogul Sean Jackson celebrates his 50th birthday in the exclusive British seaside town of Bournemouth with his uppercrust friends, his second wife, Claire, and their twins, Ruby and Coco. Sean could care less if his children or those of his guests are present. He also forgot that India and Mila, his two teenage daughters from his first marriage, were coming. Sean and his friends enjoy endless rounds of drinking and drugs, but during the weekend Coco is stolen away while sleeping in a room with her twin, who was untouched.

A dozen years later, Sean is found dead, alone in a hotel, handcuffed to the bed. His death reignites the publicity that surrounded Coco’s disappearance with attention on his contemptible friends — dubbed the Jackson Associates by the press — who have

come for the funeral. Mila reluctantly agrees to take Ruby to the funeral.

Alternating between the current story and 12 years before, “The Darkest Secret” shows how the toxic Sean opened “a wormhole to a world of chaos” for those in his orbit. Mila knows firsthand about that chaos, which she embraced, unlike her rigid, attorney sister, India. “I am my father’s daughter,” Mila says. “He loved a party, and so do I, especially in extremis.” Now 27, Mila’s maturation as she and Ruby get to know each other realistically enhances the story.

Marwood’s keen sense of suspense and observations of human fragility lead “The Darkest Secret” to a stunning finale.
