23 COVER STORY WHEN YOU ARE HIKING OR biking in the Aspen-Sopris district, have you ever wondered how the trails are kept cleared of those massive trees or who helps reroute the water? No, it’s not trail gnomes coming out of the magical forest. It is a dedicated crew of rangers who some might say have the best jobs around Aspen. In this week’s cover story, Aspen Times reporter Scott Condon and photographer Anna Stonehouse went out with one such crew to see their work first-hand.

Aspen Center for Environmental Studies annual Mushroom Fair will be held at Hallam Lake on Friday. Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will speak with Aspen Institute President and CEO Walter Isaacson on Tuesday as a part of the McCloskey Speaker Series.

JUSTICE ANTONIN SCALIA’S death in February 2016 left behind a vacant seat on the U.S. Supreme Court and a political commotion about who would fill it. His death also left a void with someone who was often on the opposite end of the ideological spectrum, associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Ginsburg will be speaking Aug. 1 with Aspen Institute President and CEO Walter Isaacson about her friendship with Scalia. The conversation is presented as part of the McClosky Speaker Series. The event is titled “The Legacy of Justice Scalia: Friendship, A Love of Music and the Law.” During the conversation with Isaacson, Ginsburg is expected to delve into her rare “off the bench” friendship with Scalia and discuss how, despite ideological differences, the two remained so close.

FESTIVAL THERE WILL BE A FUNGUS among us at the Aspen Center for Environmental Studies at Hallam Lake on Friday. ACES annual Mushroom Fair features two fungus experts from the Sam Mitchel Herbarium of Fungi at the Denver Botanic Gardens, Vera Evenson and Dr. Andrew Wilson, and a plethora of fungi-related activities. There will be a wide variety of specimens on display and available to be examined. Attendees are also welcome to bring mushrooms to be identified and to share. Participants can use microscopes to see the intricacies of the fungi and can make spore prints. This event is from 1 to 4 p.m. at Hallam Lake and is free and open to the public.

CAMPING OUT ON WOODY CREEK

1934 W O OD Y C R E E K

“WORK STARTS AT CCC CAMP NEAR LENADO,” announced The Aspen Times on May 10, 1934. “With the camp personnel at full strength, the Civilian Conservation Corps camp on Woody Creek, near Lenado, this week settled down to the work at hand. The first project tackled was the widening and improvement of the road from the station at Woody to the camp, seven miles away, which has been started. As soon as this work is well underway, other projects scattered throughout the nearby sections of Holy Cross National Forest will be undertaken. Some of the more important ones include repairing the trails and shelter house on the Mount of the Holy Cross, a hang-over from the work at Camp Tigiwon last year, eradication of poison hemlock and larkspur near the present camp, fence building and the construction of a recreation camp below the Kate Lindvig ranch on Snowmass Creek. The latter project will also involve the repairing of the trail up to Snowmass Lake. The Pitkin County camp, officially Camp F 35-C, was visited Sunday by a number of Aspen people, who were very favorably impressed by the cordiality with which the men received the visitors and escorted them throughout the camp. Of the 213 men assigned to the camp, 56 are from Texas and 104 from scattered points throughout Colorado. Three places remain to be filled.” The photograph above shows men working at the Woody Creek CCC camp, circa 1934. This photo and more can be found in the Aspen Historical Society archives at aspenhistory.org.

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

THE GEAR JUNKIE: REI QUARTER DOME AIR HAVE YOU CONSIDERED camping in the air? A growing trend, “hanging tents,” meld hammock features with bug mesh, zippers, and a fly. With a rectangular base and more support than a regular hammock, REI’s first hanging shelter hits the market this summer. The Quarter Dome Air is dubbed a minimalist alternative to a tent. At $219, you get a threeseason, one-person home built to hold up to 250 pounds. The base is 81 inches long (and 23 inches wide), so it’s big enough for people over 6 feet tall. A removable rain fly is included, and the bug net can be zipped off to stow along the base. Fly, stakes, and tent body pack down into a stuff sack that weighs 3 pounds, 2 ounces. The base’s form uses two integrated, horizontal shock-cord poles. These create the rectangular shape and stiffness. I found the setup

comfortable. There wasn’t the trademark “taco-ing” of most hammocks, but there was enough give to feel cozy while swinging slightly above the dirt. Lines at the corners use tension locks. These slide back forth, adjusting the tilt of the base. The interior has an A-frame feel. There is one door, ceiling loops

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

Road Across Colorado into Rocky Mountains Independence Pass high in the Elk Mountain Range across from the Sawatch Range. This amazing road traverses high into the Alpine tundra across the continental divide.

NAVIGATING A WINDING ROAD:

HOW GROWING OLDER MAY NOT BE A STRAIGHT AND NARROW PATH WE ALL KNOW THE DRILL: Graduate from high school, go to a good college, then find a phenomenally fantastic job that fully embodies everything about you and makes you feel like you’re not even working because you love it so dang much. Next comes marriage, the baby carriage and a romantic stroll off into the sunset as you and your family live BARBARA PLATTS happily ever after. It’s as simple as that. Any questions? Well, I can’t speak for the rest of you, but frankly, I have several – mainly: Where? How? And, most importantly, why? The process of growing up has been on my mind a lot lately. Actually, I’m not sure it’s ever far from my mind. However, it returned to the forefront when I was surfing the web for millennialrelated stories, as I often do for column fodder. A survey of 600 millennials conducted recently in the journal Transforming Education Through Technology showed that there is a growing

GETTY IMAGE

disinterest among millennials in higher education. That we think there are a “lack of pathways to productive outcomes from innovative ideas,” essentially meaning we don’t think higher education is particularly beneficial. The study was geared toward millennials working in higher educational institutions as opposed to attending, but it does give intriguing insight into how we look at a very traditional system such as education. If we millennials don’t want to work in higher education, because we think the system is outdated, does that mean we also don’t want to participate in it much past receiving a bachelor’s degree? There doesn’t seem to be too much data yet on this subject. The main stat I could find on this topic is from the U.S. Census Bureau. It showed that, of the millennials who graduate from college, 27 percent have gone on to seek master’s degrees. This is about the same percentage as the baby boomers. So, while the number has not decreased, it also hasn’t gone up, despite a weak economy.

OK, I’ll stop boring you with numbers and stats. What I mean to get at by listing these is to see if education still fits into our vision for a good life. Is it still an integral part of the recipe to overall happiness? Millennials are often referred to as the most educated generation, but with that title comes a whole lot of student debt. And we have a limited number of jobs to help relieve us of this debt. I certainly wouldn’t blame any of my peers for opting to stay out of the educational system, particularly past undergrad. Still, despite the stagnant numbers of youth seeking a master’s degree, I have many close comrades who have taken that route. One of my best friends is about to start her second year of law school. She decided to attend after several years in the workforce as a reporter. I have another who went straight from undergrad to get his master’s for counseling psychology. Yet, another good friend is in medical school. When I ask them if they made the right decision, each is positive they did.

In contrast, a couple of my good college buddies opted to leave school early. They both found jobs in their fields — journalism and film — before they even grasped a diploma. Today, I would say they are two of my most successful friends. Did they do it wrong because they didn’t finish college? They sure don’t think so. Perhaps there isn’t a right and a wrong way to grow up, as many of us, myself included, have been taught to think. Maybe the process isn’t a straight path, but a curvy rough one with loads of surprises around every corner. If the path does not include getting a bachelor’s and master’s degree, that doesn’t mean a happily ever after is out of reach. My questions still are unanswered and ever-present. But, perhaps that’s OK. Finding the answers would spoil the journey. Barbara Platts has always had ambitions for graduate school but has absolutely zero interest in the math section of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE). Arithmetic just isn’t part of “her path.” Reach her at bplatts.000@gmail.com or on Twitter @BarbaraPlatts.

WINEINK

SAUVIGNON BLANC: A SUMMER TREAT SAUVAGE. It’s such a great word. In English, the French word translates roughly to “wild,” “natural” or “untamed.” All good things. And France, Bordeaux and the Loire Valley more precisely, is home to the noble sauvignon blanc, or the savage white if you will, one of the great grapes of summer. While sauvignon blanc may be KELLY J. indigenous to France, HAYES its passport has been stamped by winemakers throughout the world. From California to Chile, South Africa to New Zealand, the green grape grows with abandon and can turn out exceptional vintages in both cool and warm climates. Among wine drinkers there are a number of opinions on the grape. Many love it. The bright acidity, the flavors of apples and melons — or in some cases, stones — the way it pairs with food, all combine to make it one of the most popular white wines in the world. But others, not so much. There are those who eschew sauvignon blanc, who don’t care for the herbaceous quality, the green flavors that remind some of bell peppers, or, in the case of “Savvy,” as they call it in New Zealand, freshly cut grass. FRENCH SAUVIGNON BLANC

Winemakers in different regions of France use the versatility of the grape to make wines in myriad styles. In some places, like the Loire Valley, it may be made to manifest that bone-dry, flinty, crisp and refreshing minerality that allows it to pair exquisitely with shellfish. Here the wines use the name of the villages, like Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, on their labels rather than the names of the grape. There may be no more revelatory dine and wine experience than sitting in one of the great brasseries of Paris with a tower of shellfish in the center of the table, showing off the red lobster of the Atlantic, paired with a freshly made carafe or bottle of a chilled, slightly straw-colored, sauvignon blanc.

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

In Bordeaux, while there are wonderful, dry, white wine bottlings with sauvignon blanc that will make you cry, many of the sweet Sauterne wines from the Graves region are made from blends of sémillon, sauvignon blanc and muscadelle grapes. These plantings have been affected by what is known as the “Noble Rot,” the Botrytis cinerea, fungus that enhances the sugars from the grapes and allows the creation of some of the most expensive wines produced using sauvignon blanc. Wine lovers going back to Thomas Jefferson have been entranced by these sweet elixirs of the wine world for centuries. Château d’Yquem, one of the most prized white wines on Earth, generally features sauvignon blanc in a supporting role to sémillon. The 300-acre Château d’Yquem, owned today by Moët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton (LVMH), is planted exclusively to semillon and sauvignon blanc in an 80 percent to 20 percent ratio. If sauvignon blanc has a patron saint, especially among modern white wine lovers, it would have to have been a man named Didier Dagueneau. A man as sauvage as the dry, crisp and exacting white wines he made in his organic vineyards in the Loire Valley, Didier died falling from the sky, like Icarus, in an ultra-light flying accident in 2008. His son, Louis-Benjamin, took the reins at the estate and today continues to make a revered single-vineyard sauvignon blanc, called “Silex,” that expresses the stony Pouilly-Fumé appellation. THE KIWI REVOLUTION

While you can find solid, affordable sauvignon blanc from just about any of the world’s most important wine regions, it is New Zealand that benefited the most from, and contributed the most to, the growing popularity of the grape. In the mid-1980s, an Australian winemaker from Margaret River, David Hohnen, founded a fledgling winery in sheep country at the northeastern end of New Zealand’s South Island, in Marlborough. He christened it Cloudy Bay. Along with British-born but Aussie

Jul y 27 - Aug u st 2 , 2017

The Marlborough region of New Zealand’s South Island is known for its extraordinary beauty and is the site of some of the world’s best cold-climate sauvignon blanc vineyards.

adopted winemaker Kevin Judd, he produced cool-climate sauvignon blanc that, to this day, remains one of the world’s most dynamic expressions of both the grape and the country of New Zealand. The wines have distinct aromatics that remind drinkers of the fresh green terroir of the island nation. This year, New Zealand passed Australia in terms of dollars to become the third leading exporter of wine to America behind Italy and France. While New Zealand’s wine production has blossomed to include wonderful pinot noir and other varieties, 86 percent of the wine exports are wines made with sauvignon blanc. So successful have the Kiwis been in creating a market based on one grape that their model has been adopted by other nations seeking fortune in the vineyards by aligning with a single grape variety. Savvy and Sauvage indeed.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE LADERA 2016 NAPA VALLEY SAUVIGNON BLANC Of course, we can make great sauvignon blanc in this country, too, and this clean fruit forward example from Napa Valley showcases just that. Made from fruit sourced from high on Howell Mountain and from the Oak Knoll appellation, this wine shows the deft skills of Kiwi winemaker Jade Barrett. Melon and mango combine with citrus and grapefruit on the palate to offer a basket of summer sunshine. From the outstanding 2016 vintage, this wine marries time, talent and the best of Napa Valley in a brilliant bottling.

FOOD MATTERS

CHILD’S PLAY

WHAT’S YOUR ‘FOOD STORY’? BECAUSE THIS COLUMN is in the most frequently published magazine that I contribute to currently, friends and even some colleagues often describe me as a “food writer.” At first, I took offense at being pigeonholed — I write about many other topics, too, including art, design, wellness, travel. Yet looking back on how, exactly, I ended up in this role AMANDA RAE — and why I enjoy writing and editing articles about food more and more — the story makes sense. As a kid, I loved playing in the kitchen. I started collecting cookbooks around 6 or 7, and baking cookies every Christmas with Grandma was a muchanticipated project. Just as my mom did, I’d make recipe notes on index cards, such as how to whip cream for strawberry shortcake using a glass bowl and beaters prechilled in the freezer. Sometimes we picked the strawberries from our backyard garden. I also wrote a lot of short stories. Before I began facing the blank blue screen of DOS word processor after school sports, I composed little books complete with cartoonish illustrations. One standout was about a giant pumpkin that wreaked havoc when it broke free from its vine and rolled uncontrollably through the town, flattening houses and cars like a natural disaster. I read a lot of Stephen King from the library behind my mom’s back, so this early foray into the “garden horror” genre isn’t too surprising, either. But the true kernel of this column may have germinated all the way back in second grade. We were asked to write about our Easter weekend; I submitted a food diary documenting every morsel consumed during our family’s Sunday buffet outing. I was an unapologetic tomboy — constantly playing soccer, kickball, wiffle ball, climbing trees, exploring woods, or ski racing when not reading books

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

or doing crafts — so my appetite matched my endless energy. In that assignment I described each food elaborately: what it looked like, felt like, smelled like, tasted like, how many bites it took to finish, my final impression. It was my first culinary masterwork, returned with a teacher’s comment that makes me proud even two decades later: “Wow! You ate all of that?” I was reminded of another part of my past that definitely shaped my food writing now while watching the “Great British Baking Show” on Netflix recently. Famed cookery writer and reality TV judge Mary Berry tasted a contestant’s cake and declared, “That is absolutely scrummy!” It was a term I recall hearing during my first magazine internship, at BBC Good Food magazine in London. I was a college junior living abroad for the summer, and deciphering a whole new world of foreign lingo — from editors as well as our readers, whose dilemmas I was tasked with researching responses to — was as daunting as figuring out how to navigate the city via Tube. Based on the sound of it, I’d assumed the word was derogatory. “What’s wrong with it?” I asked the test kitchen editor, when she exclaimed that while we prepared a recipe. Silly girl. That meant scrumptious. I’ve learned a lot more since then. Today I meet industry folks in Aspen every week, many of whom have a distinct public persona — chef, bartender, farmer, purveyor, restaurateur, event organizer, grocer, sandwich-builder. Sometimes it takes a while to extract the nuanced backstory that led them here. Other times it’s the first thing we talk about. And more often than not, the seeds of inspiration were planted during childhood. Since food is a universal human need — so basic yet with such potential for creativity — I always wonder: What’s your food story? How were you introduced to good food, and how did your experiences from a young age

Jul y 27 - Aug u st 2 , 2017

shape how you consume and appreciate meals? Did your mom fancy herself Betty Crocker? Or did dad do most of the cooking? Perhaps it was your grandmother you remember looking up to, as she stirred a big pot of sauce on the stove? Did your family vacation in particular cities in the United States or abroad where you were exposed to regional cuisine? Were holiday gatherings sure to include certain foods? What was the first meal you made for yourself, by yourself? For others? The foods you hid in a napkin as a kid that you adore now? And how has all of this affected your current relationship with food? “As far back as I can remember I had a knife in my hand and I was cutting stuff,” says Sebastien Chamaret, executive chef of La Crêperie du Village. He grew up on a 500-acre family dairy farm in the Loire countryside near the village of Montourtier — “It’s like the Nebraska of France,” he quips — where he preferred working in the kitchen to working the land. “My mom, my grandmothers were always cooking,” he continues. “I liked more to be inside than to be out in the field — besides playing soccer. I grew up making omelets at 4 or 5; crêpes probably when I was 7, 8. I cooked dinner for my

parents when I was 10 or 11. You have the seasonal harvest: string beans, strawberries, apples. We slaughtered a pig a couple times a year (and) did all the charcuterie stuff. I’d feed the rabbits everyday; chickens, pheasants, anything we could eat (we raised).” Since joining Crêperie a year ago in June, Chamaret has cooked numerous dishes that hark to his childhood: “All of the dairy stuff — from simple custard to gnocchiflette with Reblochon and bacon — to strawberry jam (for crêpes) that I was taught when I was really young.” Despite a 20-year career in New York City, at the helm of Le Comptoir in Brooklyn (as well as Bagatelle and La Goulue, the famed bistro shuttered in 2009, which he’s helping to reopen soon), Chamaret’s approach to food is ingrained in his DNA. “In Aspen, we are very fortunate, there’s a lot of foodies,” he says. “And they kind of know what a crêpe is supposed to taste like. To me, I know exactly how it’s supposed to taste. Whether you’re French, Italian, Spanish, Vietnamese, Thai — you don’t know how, but you just know. That doesn’t go away.” Executive chef Emil David, new leader at Aspen Kitchen, has a similar story.

“I was 8 when I started cooking rice and eggs,” he says. “My mom had a business in the Philippines and she used to come back really late, so I had to feed my siblings. I would climb my mom’s table and start cooking rice in a rice cooker. When I was 10-and-a-half I was the grill master of my family. They would throw barbecues. I asked my grandma to teach me how to cook fish in aluminum foil or parchment paper with onions, celery, tomato, pepper, a little bit of chile flakes, herbs, olive oil. I learned how the different sizes of proteins (cooked). I never overcooked fish since I was a kid.” Eventually David worked in fine dining establishments in Italy for a number of years before moving to Manhattan, begging for a job under Tony May at San Domenico (SD26). He got it, later moving to posts with Giorgio Armani and Bobby Flay. But it was a knack for timing that he learned from relatives. “Our chicken (at Aspen Kitchen), I cook it twice: confit three hours then during pickup we sear it,” David says. “It gives me the memory of when I used to cook when I was 10, because it’s so juicy. Fish-wise, we sear the Colorado striped bass, leave the middle slightly raw, then fold it so the steam cooks the inside. That reminds me of childhood, brings back memories of what my grandma and mom used to cook. I’m lucky that I grew up with my family.” Surely if not for family starting these stories, we wouldn’t have as many passionate chefs cooking for us today.

FROM ASPEN, WITH LOVE

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

by ERICA ROBBIE

TEQUILA TIME I hope your Monday packed a punch – or at the least, came and went with a little extra zest this week – in honor of an important U.S. holiday. If you missed the memo that Monday marked National Tequila Day, that’s OK, so did I. While I could take credit for being extra on top of my social media holidays and thus planning this column accordingly, the truth is, I hadn’t a clue until I Googled “tequila” — my choice of poison for this week’s Libations — while writing this. Call it fate; call it a highly uninteresting coincidence. I selected a tequila-based concoction for my first Gunner’s Libations in honor of column creator, Gunilla Asher. Though our paths never crossed at The Aspen Times, I am told two truths about our late legendary publisher: One, she loved to ride her motorcycle; two, tequila was her preferred choice of beverage. So, I figured what better way to celebrate Gunilla in a column dedicated to her than by drinking tequila with a fellow Times employee? The scene of the crime was Jimmy’s Bodega on Friday night. (For all you Aspenites, who, like my colleague, cannot bother to learn the names of “new” places in town, it’s the old home to Pacifica). Unlike its sister steakhouse, the quaint, bright blue-painted Jimmy’s Bodega offers a cool, coastal theme with a menu to match. Upon first glance at the cocktail menu, none of the tequila drinks struck my fancy. As a disclaimer, I am not a fan of extra sugary, sweet cocktails. Aside from the syrupy flavors disagreeing with my palette, each sip tastes more and more like the next day’s hangover. When the bartender asked for my order, I told him I’d need a minute, to which he asked what I am seeking, and I explained this hard-hitting assignment. Without hesitation, Scott Mason collected and muddled together fresh basil, ginger and grapefruit mixed with lime juice, El Tesoro blanco tequila and a bar spoon of the French liqueur Chartreuse. The result, which Scott dubbed the “Ginger Daisy,” was extremely refreshing and not too sweet. Perfect for summer sipping. While it isn’t on the menu, if you spot Scott mixing drinks behind the bar at Bodega, he welcomes you to order the Ginger Daisy. Cheers to you, Gunilla, and our fellow tequila appreciators out there. LIBATIONS WAS CREATED BY BELOVED ASPEN TIMES PUBLISHER GUNILLA ASHER, WHO DIED JUNE 2, 2014, AFTER A BRAVE BATTLE WITH CANCER. CHEERS — TO GUNNER!

avigating the world of sushi can be tough, especially when faced with an almost overwhelming piscatorial selection. Leave the decision-making in the capable hands of chefs at Maru Aspen with an “omakase” selection — which in Japanese basically means “whatever the chef feels like making.” Exploration and freedom is the theme at Maru, says sushi chef and co-owner Taylor Hale. In fact, he welcomes the challenge of creating new dishes out of the strange. “Try and stump me. Send me something I’ve never seen before,” Hale says. Like a hairy crab, which Hale and fellow chef and co-owner Peter Coyne recently used to concoct a crab risotto with tempura — an example of one of many rotating nightly specials that depend on which fresh ingredients and fish are available to them. “We’re not stuck with tradition,” Coyne says. “We can branch out and experiment with our creativity and ingredients. Not working within a strict framework but maturing together as we develop our flavors.” Are your taste buds mature and developed? Is your motto, “I’m not afraid; if it comes out of the ocean, I’m going to appreciate it”? Saddle

up to the sushi bar, where Hale says he especially looks forward to preparing meals for the more refined palate. “Once you start appreciating sashimi, that’s a whole other tier, because there’s so much out there and so much you can do with it,” Hale says. See what Hale can do with it at the sushi bar with a sashimi combo. A rotating selection of 10-plus fish options opens the door for scores of combinations, like the tuna sashimi with Japanese uni, myoga ginger glaze and garnished with chive. Hale is picky about the quality of the uni, or sea urchin, which adds a savory, oceanic butter flavor to the dish.

Jul y 27 - Aug u st 2 , 2017

“You could give this to a straightup hater and they would say, ‘This is really good,’” Hale says. Something else at Maru you won’t find in the snack aisle: boniato potato chips. Boniato potatoes are a hard, dense potato slow fried and served with Japanese yuzu ceviche. The extra crunch couples well with kanpachi and hirame — and, of course, the light citrus zing of the yuzu. Also on deck for Maru this summer is a robust menu of fish, shrimp and chicken salad options and combos, using fresh, local ingredients and veggies from local farmers markets and growers, when possible. And sure, many Aspen restaurants strive for freshness and providing the farm-to-table experience, but how many can say they are their own farm? New for Maru in this pursuit is a garden chock full of chard, kale,

tomatoes, Japanese eggplant and herbs being home-grown throughout the summer for guests’ consumption. Just another example of an extra step taken by Maru to have control over the ingredients and ensure top quality. That control and freedom, Coyne says, along with the friendship between him, Hale and the rest of the staff leads to an environment where chefs are encouraged to collaborate and invent dishes freely. In fact, his philosophy for the kitchen may be the same as guests eating on the patio or getting their sake carafe refilled at the bar: “It’s about being able to play with food and hang out with your friends.” left: Tora and uni with fresh ginger and chive. top: Tosazu glazed salmon. bottom: Mixed green salad with tuna tataki.

TAKE A HIKE — AND THANK THE TRAILS CREW HARD WORK BY SMALL CREW KEEPS ASPEN-AREA FOREST TRAILS CLEAR BY SCOTT CONDON // PHOTOS BY ANNA STONEHOUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE the ideal job description: Get up early, hike some of the best trails in the national forest surrounding Aspen, occasionally camp under the stars, chop wood, then repeat from May through September. There’s no doubt it’s a great job being on the trails crew of the Aspen-Sopris Ranger District, said Seth Hannula, crew foreman. Lots of hikers encountered by the five-person crew watch in awe as they hack with an ax at smaller trees and branches that have fallen across the trail or tackle larger trees with a two-person cross-cut saw. But observers don’t always see the big picture. “Some days the mosquitos are bad. Some days

it’s raining,” Hannula said. “It’s not always ideal.” Still, he’s not complaining. He’s been in love with the job since first starting with the trails crew in 1999. Back then, the Aspen and Sopris districts were separate. The Sopris district had a 10-member trails crew. Aspen had six to eight. The districts have since combined but eroding budgets have tightened the belt on the trails crew about as tight as it can get. “There’s been one or two seasons where I was the only one,” Hannula said. The crew is larger this year than in recent years. Eric Tierney, Steve Petrich, Clay Westbrook and Erick Kelly make a formidable crew, Hannula

said. Their first order of business was bucking fallen timber off the highest use trails — popular hiking destinations like Crater Lake, West Maroon Creek, Buckskin Pass and Conundrum, where a windstorm blew several trees down and required special attention last month. High-use mountain biking routes also get top priority, including places like Hunter Creek Valley and Basalt Mountain. “We try to focus on the high-use areas, chasing the snow,” Hannula said. Now, at the halfway point of the summer, they’re able to turn attention to the second tier of trails and set sights on projects that have been on back burners.

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

A lot of their time is spent on “tread work” — building and maintaining water bars. Rock, logs or dirt berms are used to block water from running down a trail. A path is scratched into the ground to divert water into the woods. In places where water cannot be diverted, check dams are built to stop the water’s momentum and prevent it from creating a rut. The trails on the high-altitude passes, such as West Maroon Pass, are particularly vulnerable to water, Hannula said. He could devote a crew all season to working on the high passes if he had that luxury. There are 346 miles of hiking and equestrian trails in the district that need maintenance, including 289 miles in wilderness. There are an additional 175 miles of mountain biking trails and 52 miles of trails for motorized uses. In other words, Hannula’s crew is in no danger of running out of things to do. Hannula said he loves the job because of all the places it’s taken him. He figures there are only about 6 to 8 miles of official trail he hasn’t visited in the past 18 years. Tierney worked as a wilderness ranger in the Aspen-Sopris district last summer. The jobs are similar. The rangers carry a saw and Pulaski, a tool with an ax on one side and a heavy-duty hoe on the other, to perform trail maintenance, but they have broader responsibilities such as checking to make sure backpackers comply with regulations ranging from camping far enough from trails, rivers and lakes, and using bear-proof canisters for food and trash. In short, they’re backcountry cops. This year, Tierney is seeing more of the forest, which is one of the things he likes about the job. “It’s just getting to see different areas that you haven’t seen before,” he said. “And it’s good learning different skills.” One day last week on the Anthracite Creek Trail outside of Marble, Tierney wielded a doublebladed ax he nicknamed “The Viking.” Hannula and Petrich couldn’t hide their glee as Tierney attacked decent-sized limbs and trunks with gusto to clear the trail. He made short order of all timber he encountered across the trail. “Eric loves to chop,” they explained to observers. Petrich ended up in Aspen on a whim this summer. He intended to get a job with the Forest Service in his native Washington state, but positions were posted earlier than he expected and he was shut out. He answered

a post for a job in AspenSopris Ranger District. The scenery has blown him away. “I thought that it would be cool,” he said. “It turned out to be very cool.” When axes won’t handle a job, the crew has a two-person crosscut saw, a lightweight but powerful tool believed to be developed in the 14th century. With strategic use of wedges to prevent the tree trunks from binding on the saw, they can cut through large-diameter downfall in short order. Chainsaws can’t be used in designated wilderness, where all motorized and mechanized users are prohibited, so the crosscut saw is essential. The budget crunch and uncertainty from year to year in the numbers of the trails crew has made volunteer assistance vital. Those groups include Roaring Fork Outdoor Volunteers, Roaring Fork Mountain Bike Association and the Crested Butte Trail Riders Association, which spills into the Roaring Fork Valley.

Hannula and Tierney accompanied a crew from Wilderness Volunteers into Lead King Basin on Sunday for a multi-day trip to work on trails there, including the popular Geneva Lake. The volunteers actually pay to come out to work, so you know they’re dedicated, Hannula said. He also looks forward to working each year with the crew from Colorado Rocky Mountain School in Carbondale. It’s a school ritual. Many of the faculty has done it for years, so they are good at organizing and directing 80 to 100 kids for a few days in the backcountry. “If you can focus that energy, you can really get a lot done,” Hannula said. But for most of the summer, it’s just the trails crew working alone. They will backpack into a secluded site when they have multiple days of work. They can get more done when they don’t spend hours hiking in and out. Still, they cover lots of miles. The 2016 crew cleared an estimated 200 miles of trails. Crew members are lean, mean clearing machines by the end of summer. “You definitely get stronger,” Hannula said. “We

They pack in high-protein food but it’s still sometimes tough to eat enough. “I consider it kind of hyperphagia, like bears in the fall,” Hannula said with a laugh. Next time you’re hiking in the Maroon BellsSnowmass Wilderness and find a freshly sawed tree trunk of mammoth proportions or are cycling Basalt Mountain and see a water bar effectively wicking runoff, bear in mind it’s not mysterious trail gnomes at work. It’s sweat off the brow of Hannula and crew that is keeping the trail clear. scondon@aspentimes.com TOP TO BOTTOM: Steve Petrich, left, and Seth Hannula of the Aspen-Sopris Ranger District trail crew use a cross-cut saw to clear a tree trunk from the Anthracite Creek Trail outside of Marble on July 19.

CROSS-CUT SAW MAJOR TOOL IN FOREST SERVICE’S QUIVER

A medieval-looking tool called a cross-cut saw is the Forest Service trails crew’s best friend. Yes, chainsaws come in mighty handy for ripping up downfall that is easily accessed. But sometimes it isn’t practical to hike with a heavy saw and the gas it requires, said Seth BY SCOTT CONDON Hannula, longtime trails crew foreman. In addition, the use of mechanized tools is prohibited in designated wilderness areas — where a substantial amount of trail clearing occurs. “Two-thirds of our work is cross-cutting,” Hannula said. The crew members go to great lengths to keep the saws in good shape. They avoid cutting a log above a rock that would dull the teeth. They even go to great pains to debark a log before cutting. They get hung up and oiled after daily use. “It’s like having a baby,” trail crew member Steve Petrich said. A cross-cut saw is a two-person tool, roughly 6 feet long and sporting teeth that

ASPEN-SOPRIS DISTRICT BIG FOOTPRINT OF HIKING TRAILS

BIG COUNTRY The Aspen-Sopris Ranger District of the White River National Forest is 750,000 acres spanning four counties. Here’s what the trail crews work on: X There are five designated wilderness areas in the district, encompassing about 316,000 acres. X There are 36 trailheads within the wilderness areas, including 17 in the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness, which is the most heavily visited. X There are 346 miles of hiking and horseback riding trails in the district with 289 miles in wilderness (where motorized and mechanized uses are banned). X There are 175 miles of mountain biking trails. X There are 28 miles of off-highway vehicle trails and 24 miles of motorcycle trails. X The Aspen-Sopris Ranger District has a five-person trail crew this year. That’s an increase over recent years. The crew cleared approximately 200 miles of trail in 2016.

would do any predator proud. The cutting edge is angled at an alternating pattern on each tooth to make it more efficient. There are special teeth called rakers, which clear out the sawed wood. The saws are light so they can be easily carried. The handles are screwed onto both ends and taken off in between cuts. They saw on the pull motion and cut through most sub-alpine fir and spruce trees that dominate local forests like a knife through butter. Aspen and cottonwoods can present bigger problems, Hannula said, as do recently downed pines. The Aspen-Sopris Ranger District possesses about 20 cross-cut saws, some of them more than 100 years old. They are a prized possession, Hannula said, because they aren’t made anymore. The saws get sent periodically to a business in Northern California to be sharpened because it’s such a specialized skill.

KIDS DANCING, BEAR COSTUMES, VIRTUAL REALITY, MUSHROOM EATING, AND MORE AT AAM IT’S UNDERSTANDABLE to be intimidated by the museum-wide exhibition currently on display at the Aspen Art Museum. It’s not exactly a “beach read” as far as art shows go, but with a little patience, and the help of some creative programming taking place Friday, you may just get your money’s worth. The un-hashtable exhibition title, “Wade Guyton Peter Fischli David Weiss,” is a straightforward description of what is a slightly confusing collaboration among three artists, two living and one dead. It started when the museum asked

Wade Guyton to install a room. He said he wanted to work with Peter Fischli, whose 30-year collaborator, David Weiss, had recently passed away in 2012. Ideas grew and so did the exhibition, which ended up extending from sidewalk to rooftop to two gently breathing stuffed animals on the lower level. Friday, the museum will be filled with as many activities as there are media on display. There will be rat and bear ears for dress up downstairs. Guests will be able to work through Guyton’s “printing” techniques with a large-scale Epson printer.

There will be a VR tour through Fischli Weiss’ 3,000-photo installation, “Visible Worlds.” The Aspen Science Center will be upstairs with a special solar observation telescope to monitor the sunset — also upstairs, refreshments for mom and dad as well as a special sampling of edible flowers and mushrooms inspired by the Fischli Weiss “Flowers and Mushroom” slideshow. The can’t-miss event starts at 3 p.m. in the lower level galleries. Aspen Art Museum Summer Workshop participants ages 6 to 8 and Soulskin Dance (a dance

The development plan on the Property includes several ponds and additional structures, including a ranch manager’s cabin, a fishing cabin, and a large loafing shed. The Tie Camp Water Rights are an important aspect of the Applicant’s plans for its Property, and Applicant anticipates further developing the Tie Camp Water Rights pursuant to such plans. In conjunction with the ongoing development of the Property, Applicant’s representatives and consultants conducted several site visits to inspect the Property, including inspecting and confirming the locations of the points of diversion of the Tie Camp Water Rights. Several water rights studies were completed and water conveyance options were evaluated, including an analysis of ditches and laterals that could be used to irrigate the Property. The Tie Camp Water Rights were reviewed, as part of this evaluation. Applicant monitored new water rights applications and activities of other appropriators in order to protect its interest in the Tie Camp Water Rights. Applicant engaged the services of water resources, engineering and environmental consultants for advice with respect to the above-described activities and associated water rights matters. Applicant engaged the services of attorneys to provide legal advice in connection with the above-described activities and associated water rights matters.

INTELLIGENT EXERCISE

by OLINE H. COGDILL for Associated Press

BOOK REVIEW

“PARADISE VALLEY” IS TAUT, SUSPENSEFUL “PARADISE VALLEY” reaches the same level of frightening realism that made C.J. Box’s “The Highway” so terrifying. A sequel to that novel, “Paradise Valley,” makes an excellent conclusion to Box’s gripping The Highway Quartet novels that have evolved into a hunt for a serial killer who works as a long-haul trucker. The realistic fright factor soars because Box uses the FBI’s Highway Serial Killer Task Force as a base for “Paradise Valley” and “The Highway.” In “Paradise Valley,” Cassie Dewell, chief investigator in the Bakken County, North Dakota, sheriff’s department, is obsessed with finding killer Ronald Pergram, an independent trucker who preys on truck stop prostitutes. When a sting operation to entrap Pergram goes horribly wrong, Cassie is forced to resign. But Cassie holds firm to her mission of arresting Pergram, who is

nicknamed The Lizard King. The disappearance of three people where Pergram has been seen leads Cassie to believe that Pergram has kidnapped them. One of those missing is Kyle Westergaard, a troubled child for whom Cassie feels responsible. Working on her own, Cassie follows her instincts to track down Pergram. Box keeps “Paradise Valley” taut, with twists that are as suspenseful as they are believable. Terrifying scenes at a truck stop, at a remote cabin and on a hilltop are not easily forgotten. The intuitive Cassie continues to display her acumen, and we hope Box will find new stories for her and for Kyle, who suffers from fetal alcohol syndrome. Although Box never allows sympathy nor empathy for Pergram, Box does show a glimmer of humanity that remains in this killer. Box, best known for his long-running

series about Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett, has become one of the best purveyors of stories about the new American West. He vividly recounts how this part of North Dakota has gone from a boomtown to a near bust with unfinished subdivisions littering the landscape. As “Paradise Valley” moves to Montana, Box shows that the best travel writing delves into a region’s environs. Box, winner of the Edgar Award, again proves his superior storytelling skills in “Paradise Valley.”
