by Andrew Travers, Roaring Sports Columnist Monday, May 5, 2008 Dear Aspen,
You amaze me. Your mountains are so magnificent. Your weather so sunny.
Your thinking so darn progressive. Your people so pretty. And healthy.
And rich. Really rich. Full Story »
by Damien Williamson, Roaring Sports Staff Writer Monday, May 5, 2008 It was May 1. The fair mountains of the upper Roaring Fork Valley had
just been blanketed with yet another fresh layer of the white stuff,
and the temperature in town was hovering slightly above freezing. For
my part, I had just wrapped up a round of altogether-too-soon
off-season vacations and was hoping, as in previous years, that the
snow line on Aspen Mountain had, at the very least, receded to the top
of Little Nell run. Alas, someone must have applied the Rogaine.
So, still lamenting the fact that winter had obviously disregarded that
moment of astronomical significance known as the vernal equinox, I

Drive due west, past Glenwood and beyond the bubble of the Roaring
Fork Valley. Continue on past Rifle and through Parachute as gas prices
plummet, the altitude drops, the sun sharpens and the white-painted
peaks of the Rockies begin to fade in the rear view mirror.
On this stretch of Highway 70, and just about 33 miles before being
assailed by the metropolis of Grand Junction, there is a stock-green
sign sitting quietly on the side of the road — DeBeque. Take that right
hand turn, roll the windows down, slow your speed to about 35 mph and
