Learn how to help during Suicide Prevention Month
FRONT RANGE September is National Suicide Prevention Month. All month, mental health advocates, prevention organizations, survivors, allies, and community members unite to promote suicide prevention awareness. If you are feeling suicidal, you are not alone and help is available. Visit The Lifeline at suicidepreventionlifeline.org or call 1-800-273-8255. Every year, the Lifeline and other
mental health organizations and individuals across the U.S. and around the world raise awareness of suicide prevention during National Suicide Prevention Month. Additionally, World Suicide Prevention Day, Sept. 10, is a time to remember those affected by suicide, to raise awareness, and to focus efforts on directing treatment to those who need it most. National Suicide Prevention Week, Sept. 9-15, is a time to share resources and stories,
as well as promote suicide prevention awareness. We can all help prevent suicide. Research shows people who are having thoughts of suicide feel relief when someone asks about them in a caring way. Findings suggest acknowledging and talking about suicide may reduce rather than increase suicidal ideation. Individuals are more likely to feel less depressed, less suicidal, less overwhelmed, and more hopeful after speaking to someone who listens without judgment. Studies indicate that helping someone at risk create a network of resources and individuals for support and safety can help them take positive action and reduce feelings of hopelessness. We can all help prevent suicide. #BeThe1To is the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline’s message for National Suicide Prevention Month and beyond. The Lifeline network and its partners are working to change the conversation from suicide to suicide prevention, to actions that can promote healing, help and give hope. Visit bethe1to.com to learn how to make a difference. The Lifeline at suicidepreventionlifeline.org also provides 24/7, free and confidential support for people in distress, prevention and crisis resources for you or your loved ones, and best practices for professionals.

National park proposes camp fee changes ESTES PARK Rocky Mountain National Park staff are proposing a change in current campground fees based on comparable fees for similar services in nearby campgrounds. Park staff are proposing an increase for summer camping from $26 to $30 and winter camping from $18 to $20, per site, per night. Park staff are proposing a flat rate at group sites at Glacier Basin Campground. Currently the fees are $4 per person, per night. The proposed flat www.mmacmonthly.com
rates would be as follows: small group site (9-15 people) $40; medium group site (16-25 people) $50; and large group site (26-40 people) $60. “Camping is very popular in Rocky Mountain National Park. We want to keep our campground fees affordable and provide visitors with the best possible experience,” Park Superintendent Darla Sidles said. “Plus, 80 percent of those funds stay right here in Rocky to benefit visitors.” The Federal Lands Recreation En-
hancement Act allows national parks to retain 80 percent of the fees collected for use on projects that directly benefit visitors. The remaining 20 percent is distributed throughout the National Park System. Park staff are seeking feedback about the proposed fee schedule. Email comments to ROMO_Information@nps.gov by Sept. 27. The current campground fees have been in effect for the past four years. Visit nps. gov/romo to learn more.

Reviving History
Former bandmates to reunite for concert
T
hree founding members of Nederland’s Elephant Revival, which has been on hiatus since early 2018, are joining forces in their former hometown for a rare musical collaboration. Bridget Law, Dango Rose and Sage Cook are sharing the stage as part of the Elephant Collective Showcase, which also features special guests Sam Burchfield of Atlanta, Southeast underground pop hero Pip the Pansy and other guests assembled by Rose. The Elephant Collective Showcase takes place at The Caribou Room, 55 Indian Peaks Dr., Sept. 20. Doors open for dinner at 7:30 p.m. and the show begins at 9 p.m. Tickets are $18 in advance or $20 at the door. The members of Elephant Revival, also assembled by Rose, came together in 2006. Cook left the band in 2015 to move out of state and launch a new music project while Law left in the fall of 2017 to stop touring, grow roots at home on Colorado and “dive into” the band she’s in with her husband. The rest of the group are on an indefinite hiatus that began after their Red Rocks show in May 2018 and are performing solo and as special guests. “I’m really looking forward to dropping in with Sage and Dango and some of the music and history that we’ve created together and just reminiscing on that, reviving that,” Law said. “There’s a lot of beautiful tunes in there and certainly some fun camaraderie and energy exchanges we like; and like to feed off of, so that will be really neat… and Dango has chosen some fun special guests to join us. That will be cool.” Although Law has played with Rose and Cook separately, the three have very rarely performed together in this type of configuration. “I mean I’m excited for [Rose and Cook] to play together again… they’re a fun little pair for sure,” Law said. “They have a good time. The three of us played a tune for Campout for the Cause and the vibe was just super high, you know the fun vibe, sort of that jovial, delighted-to-be-playing-music-together type of energy and so, yeah, I think that will be very pleasant.” The violinist and vocalist is also looking forward to performing in Neder-

land. “I love Ned. It’s always fun,” she said. “Last time I was at the Caribou Room was with Vince on 4/20. It’s just always great… the people of Nederland really know how to drop into the music with us. It’s like, playing in Nederland is like having dinner with an old friend. It’s always a really good time.” When Law takes the stage at The Caribou Room, she will be six months pregnant. “I’m sort of at the neat, metamorphosis phase in my life, becoming a mother for the first time, which has had an effect on me musically,” she explained. “It’s been fun, actually, it’s like I have no excess energy to be distracted. I’m just able to kind of drop into the music, it’s a sensation I feel when I play right now, which is really cool. It’s like all heart, it’s all intuition and heart and my head sort of stays out of it, so it’s been really fun to improvise and just kind of be in the flow of the musicality.” In general, Law has been much more grounded and peaceful since leaving the touring life behind, something she’s been thinking about following recent deaths in the music community. “I definitely have been reflecting on how difficult life was on the road all the time, and just how challenging it is Continued on page 8

NOTEWORTHY Larry Keel - One
• September 7: The Caribou Room, Nederland w/Flash Mountain Flood • 9 p.m. $15-$18.
O
ver the past 30 years, Larry Keel has grown a cult-following with his energetic performances and skilled musicianship; he has released 16 albums and is featured on 10 others, including his side project with Keller Williams, Keller and the Keels. His latest release, One, follows Keel, along with his longtime bandmates Jenny Keel and Jared Pool, “from the philosophical to the supernatural to the sardonic to the unapologetically romantic,” all expressed with his “charmingly gritty voice and masterful acoustic guitar work.” All songs on the album were recorded live with no overdubs. Keel is described by music critics and reviewers as “the most powerful, innovative and all-out exhilarating acoustic flatpicking guitarist performing today.” He has absorbed the best lessons from his bluegrass family upbringing, both sides deeply steeped in the rich mountain music culture and heritage of Southwest Virginia. From there, he has always integrated that solid musical grounding and natural-born talent with his own incomparable approach to playing amplified, acoustic guitar and composing original music. He’s also got a knack for choosing interesting and appealing material from all realms of music with guts, whether it’s a tune written by a fellow song-writer/musician friend, or a surprise cover from any number of musical acts all over the map. The combination is pretty irresistible, and has earned Keel the highest respect and billing among the top acoustic and jam rock musicians alive, and some now gone. Keel’s turbo-charged acoustic power trio delivers a “beautiful and fearless” album capturing seven of his latest original songs. Like the outlaw music icons he admires, Chris Stapleton and Sturgill Simpson, Keel infuses his brand of alt-country with guts and grace, psychedelia and sophistication, and more than a little wide-open shredding. The album, first released in June, was recorded by Steve Hevener, mixed by Jeff Covert of Wally Cleaver’s Studio. Visit larrykeel.com to learn more and find a link to purchase the album.

to stay centered and feel in control and aware of your emotions,” she explained. “It’s hard to be in a grounded committed relationship and to be able to nurture your body and water the garden of your life. So, I’ve definitely been reflecting— now that I’ve been off the road for a few years—on how different that feels,” Law continued. “I’m just really pleased with the decision really. I miss Elephant Revival a lot. I miss the medicine that the music provides for people and I hope that we, on some level, can re-invite that into the community on a more sustainable level for all of us.” The musician also is enjoying being in Colorado full time, sleep at home, spending time with her family and “being a more integrated part of a community.” Music is still a large part of Law’s life, even if she’s slowed down. “My primary source of income is still performing even though I’m not touring my tush off, so that’s a good sign that things still work.” In addition to working with her husband in the Tierro Band with Bridget Law, which is releasing an album this fall, she is often hired as an artist-at-large at bluegrass festivals, including the WinterWondergrass Festivals, and hosts a musical rotating collaboration known as WinterWonderWoman. In addition to the former Elephant Revival members, Sam Burchfield, Pip the Pansy and others will be joining in the musical fun. “Those are folks that Dango has brought in. I think he thinks they will be a fun energetic exchange that will add a lot to the musical configuration,” Law said. “I have listened to their music and it’s excellent, very different… but they seem super-talented and like a lot of fun. I trust Dango. Dango is the one who called the original configuration of Elephant Revival together. Even though we were all friends, he saw the energetic match that was available to all of us. I tend to believe him and go along with his intuition.” Keep up with band members by visiting tierroband.com, dangorose.com and wedreamdawn.com or finding them on Facebook.

Reviving the ’50s Historic hot rods return to the high country
N
ick’s Hot Rod Garage presents the seventh annual running of its famed Hot Rod Hill Climb in Central City, Sept. 13-15. The throwback to the 1950s is entirely free for spectators and includes the featured Hill Climb and car show, Peak to Peak Run, Reliability Run, live music, food court, beer garden, the sound of uncapped vintage motors filling the mountain air and more. Pit passes are $10. Parking is free. Most spectator events are Saturday. The Hill Climb featuring 150 pre-1955 era Hot Rods runs 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Vendors, food trucks, classic cars and live bands—including Ethyl & the Regulars, Coop & Chicken Pluckers, and Hot Club of Cowtown—fill Main Street from 10 a.m.-6:30 p.m. The Reliability Run is Friday, 8 a.m.-3 p.m. and The Peak to Peak Run from Central City to Estes Park is Sunday beginning at 9 a.m. Brought back to the hills of Colorado by Mike “Nick” Nicholas in 2013 for the 60th Anniversary of the famous race up Guanella Pass, the Hot Rod Hill Climb is a nationally acclaimed hot rod event that brings back the nostalgia of the original events, which took place in 1953 and 1954. Moved to Central City in 2016 to allow for more spectators and more runs, the Hot Rod Hill Climb continues to celebrate vintage racing with early 1950s-style hot rods. “We have 150 cars that run up the hill that are specifically early ’50s hot rods so, they are what you would have seen in the ’50s at the original event,” Event Founder and Organizer Nicholas said. “We try to keep them authentic engine wise, wheel and tire… We get other participants that have Hot Rods that might be ’70s street rods or ’80s or ’90s. They might represent a different era in time, and those guys are all included as well in our car show aspect of the event. We get another 200 to 250 cars that park downtown and around town and participate in our Friday Reliability Run.” The event is quite popular and brings as many as 1,200-1,500 people to town who are officially registered to participate. “We’ve got people that come to this event from Upstate New York, we’ve got a crew from Canada. We’ve got people coming to run their cars from Georgia, Texas and a whole crew coming from Austin,” Nicholas said. “They are coming from California, South Dakota and all over the United States to participate in this event with these unique cars.”
Amy “The Barefoot Flag Lady” Nicholas sends a vintage car on its way during the Hot Rod Hill Climb in Central City, Sept. 13-15. Participating cars are on display in the Big T Parking Lot pit area.

Even more spectators fill the town, including some from as far away as Denmark, Norway, Australia and the United Kingdom. Nicholas estimates another 1,000-1,500 people come up on Saturday just to watch and enjoy. “People that just love Americana and an opportunity to come and see these cars in motion, alive rather than a static glass display.” Nicholas explained. “Here is an opportunity to come experience some amazing historic Americana. So that’s pretty exciting that people would spend their time and money to travel from another country to Central City to see an event that we put on is an honor to me.” Part of the appeal is the uniqueness of the cars. “These old motors aren’t fast, they sound different. Some of these cars have extremely rare speed parts on them that were made before the war or after World War II and so they are just very, very unique,” Nicholas said. “And they are out there being used instead of in a museum, where you can only look at them. You actually get to experience what these old cars are and what they were 65 years ago. That’s kind of what makes it special. It’s not a static car show and it’s not a museum. It’s a museum on steroids, is really what it is.” Visit hotrodhillclimb.com for a schedule of events and complete details.

FOOD & DRINK Local breweries attend ‘preeminent’ festival By Jeffrey V. Smith DENVER For the 38th consecutive year, beer lovers will gather in Denver, Oct. 3-5, at the Great American Beer Festival (GABF), the country’s preeminent beer festival and competition. This year’s GABF will offer 62,000 atCRAFT tendees the opportunity to choose BEER from more than 4,000 beers from an anticipated 800 breweries, including several from the Peak to Peak Region. Hundreds more breweryies from the Front Range and metro area will also be pouring. GABF is the largest collection of U.S. beer ever served, in the format of a public tasting event plus a privately judged competition. The event has topped beer lovers’ bucket lists since 1982 and unites beer lovers and brewers from all corners of the country to celebrate the nation’s ever-growing craft beer culture. As one of the world’s largest and most distinguished beer competitions, GABF 2019 is anticipated to be the largest competition to date. More than 9,300 beers from approximately 2,300 brewers will vie for the coveted gold, silver and bronze medals in 107 beer style categories. This year, independent craft breweries from the area attending the event include Dostal Alley in Central City, Very Nice Brewing in Nederland and Oskar Blues in Lyons. Dostal Alley Brewpub has entered competition beers and poured beer at GABF since owner and brewmaster Buddy Schmalz first started brewing in 1997. “We are, perhaps, the only brewery at GABF that has never used a single volunteer to pour our beers at the festival (or any other),” Dostal Alley’s Brewer Emeritus Dave Thomas said. “We believe that only those who know our beers personally can accurately talk about them… We have won four GABF medals over the years, including three for Shafthouse Stout.” For this year’s GABF, Dostal Alley is entering its Snowline Winter Ale brewed with cinnamon and wild rose hips in the Aged Beer category, Sylvester’s Special Graham Cracker Porter—named for Sylvester Graham—with graham crackers in the mash, and featuring caramel, molasses and vanilla flavors. Jacob Mack Brown Ale and Cousin Jack Pub Ale were also entered. According to Thomas, quite a few people—including Association of Brewers and GABF founder Charlie Papazian—complain it is getting difficult to find simple, old-style beers with all the new hazy, pineapple, mango and unique-flavored beers. “At Dostal Alley, our beer fans depend on getting freshly-brewed English brown ales and ESBs, stouts, porters, Belgian wheats and clear Colorado IPAs,” Thomas explained. Very Nice Brewing Owner Jeff Green says they “love” the event. “It’s the grandest of all the brew fests and must be experienced at least once in life,” he said. “My first attendance in 2008 was where I first found out how great the craft beer culture can really be. Although my favorite brew festivals have Page 20

become the more intimate ones, GABF will always be a craft beer icon and legendary experience. As the brewer and creative side of our brewery, it means a tremendous surge in ideas and brewing knowledge.” The brewery is serving its “Monk’s Phunk” Belgian Abby, “Calmer Than You Are” Session IPA, and “The Logical Fallacy” Stout. All are entered in to the competition. Also in the competition is “Special Lady Friend” Cherry Ginger Saison and “Make it So” Earl Grey Infused Pale Ale. “As always, seeing our friends in the industry and the glow of beer geeks from all walks of life is the best part,” Green said. “GABF is an ultimate celebration of the fun it is to be a part of this industry. It’s a perma-smile for everyone involved.” According to the brewer, GABF has changed and reflects the state of the industry. “That means it has giant corporate sponsors, and so the look and feel is very different from when we started in 2012,” he said. “The breweries that are heavily invested in distribution need those sponsors. They need resources to compete with big beer and distribution behemoths.” Green is much happier being small and independent. “It means we don’t have to be everywhere, we don’t have to chase trends, and we can still keep our passion front and center. It means our beer will always be the center of our focus and we don’t have to get caught up in growing bigger and bigger… At the end of it all, it will still be the independent brewers keeping the flame of originality and passion burning through the flood of corporate, profit centered beer.” Whether attending or not, the GABF also spawns literally 100s of beer-related side events—including tap takeovers, rare beer tappings, firkin nights, meet-the-brewer events, beer and food pairings and much more—before, during and after the main event. Attending breweries also offer their entries in the own taprooms and at tap takeovers so its easy to try something new. If a beer lover, don’t forget to explore the area’s other innovative breweries which are not attending this year including James Peak Brewing, 70 E 1st St., and Knotted Root Brewing, 250 N. Caribou St., in Nederland as well as Lumpy Ridge Brewing, 531 S. Saint Vrain Ave., Rock Cut Brewing, 390 W. Riverside Dr. and Avant Garde Aleworks, 920 Dunraven St. in Estes Park.

COVER STORY
Aspen Gold Peak to Peak Region known for abundance of aspen color
I
n September and early October, Colorado is transformed into a showcase of shimmering gold when aspen leaves dramatically change color. The trees, which make up 20 percent of Colorado’s forests, glow in a patchwork quilt of different yellow hues against a background of dark green conifers, gray and black rocks, wispy clouds and deep blue skies. It’s a spectacular natural display that attracts visitors far and wide while motivating locals to seek out these stunning golden vistas despite the masses. Once the trees begin their transformation from green to glorious gold, however, the much celebrated and anticipated spectacle doesn’t last long in any given place. To see it, your timing must be right. Since it’s difficult to predict when exactly leaves will turn in any given location, the best strategy is to not have a destination in mind, but to instead follow the color. Aspen leaves change, like all deciduous trees, because of a decrease in photosynthetic activity as the days get shorter. The gold and yellow that emerges are always present but are revealed only when green hues from chlorophyll production decrease. Local weather conditions, available moisture and stand health all influence how the colors are revealed each year. A wetter growing season followed by a dry, sunny autumn with cool but frost-free nights produces in the brightest colors, according to the United States National Arboretum. Elevation and latitude are two aspects that can be considered when seeking out fall color, which can last from days to weeks. Color changes begin in the subalpine zone at 9,000-11,000 feet elevation in early September. Progressively, changes reach the montane zone at 5,600-9,500 feet by mid-month. Similarly, leaves in the northern part of the region change before those to the south. Stand health is also a critical factor for aspens to display strong colors and retain leaves later into the fall, according to the Colorado State Forest Service. Unhealthy aspen stands are less likely to have vibrant colors, while a more robust stand will have more attractive colors. Also, each aspen grove includes one or more aspen clones. The aspen trees of a particular clone will change color at the same time because they are genetically related. Fall is a good time to discover which trees are from the same clone. The Peak to Peak Region from Central City to Estes Park offers numerous places to join the gold rush and be immersed in fall foliage. The region’s many aspen groves are located at a variety of elevations and allow for outstanding leaf peeping and photography for many weeks during the season. While there are many amazing options for get-

ting off the beaten path and into the backcountry to see the fall splendor, the easiest and most comfortable way is to drive. The region’s scenic byways and mountain roads are a great way to see the color. While out peeping, be sure to support local businesses. Eat out, buy a local craft or visit a coffee shop. The fall color season can be very important to most communities and their small businesses. Get up close to the fall foliage and access spots for exceptional panoramic views throughout the area on several leafy drives. An easy place to start is with the Peak to Peak Historic and Scenic Byway itself. It offers several opportunities to see spectacular fall color simply by driving its route. The same can be said for Trail Ridge Road Scenic Byway in Rocky Mountain National Park. The entire drive is one scenic moment after another. The leaf viewing can get even better by taking a few detours. Along the main route of the Peak to Peak, it’s easy to access several more world-class aspen viewing areas. Golden Gate Canyon State Park and its Panarama Point overlook provides an extensive view of much of the region up to and including the Continental Divide. Mountain Base Road through the park provides a great, scenic alternative to the main route. If staying in the car, consider a drive up to the former Caribou townsite west of Nederland on C.R. 128/Caribou Road or heading out to Caribou Ranch Open Space off C.R. 126 a mile north of Nederland. The Switzerland Trail, an old railroad bed offers panoramas of mountain valleys, snow-covered peaks and, of course, aspen leaves. Today the road is accessible at several points, including five miles east on Gold Hill Road, but is unmaintained. The Brainard Lake Recreation Area near Ward offers a paved road west to above 10,000 feet in elevation and features amazing scenery as well as numerous hiking trails, fishing, wildlife viewing and more. Take the short Hwy. 7 Business route through Ferncliff and Allenspark for some local flavor and more aspen color and consider healing west on C.R. 107 from Allenspark toward the St. Vrain Mountain Trailhead for a drive into the forest.
ASPEN TREES
Aspen are medium-sized deciduous trees, commonly 20 to 80 feet in height, and 3 to 18 inches diameter. Trees more than 80 feet tall and larger than 24 inches diameter are occasionally found. Their bark is smooth, greenishwhite, yellowish-white, yellowish-gray, or gray to almost white in color. The green color is from chlorophyll in the bark. Their bark may become rough and fissured with age. Aspen trees usually do not live more than 150 years, though they may persist more than 200 years. It grows on many soil types, especially sandy and gravelly slopes, and is quick to pioneer disturbed sites where there is bare soil. It grows best where soils are moist and sunshine is plentiful. Aspen is intolerant of shade, and does not compete well with more shadetolerant conifer species. Aspen readily colonizes burned areas and can persist even when subjected to frequent fires. In the Central Rocky Mountains, the extensive stands of aspen are usually attributed to repeated wildfires. It may dominate a site until replaced by less fire-enduring but more shade-tolerant conifers. In the western United States, aspen is generally found at 5,000 to 12,000 feet elevation. Most of the aspen forest in the U.S. is found in Utah and Colorado, though it is also scattered throughout all of the western states. Aspen provide habitat for a wide variety of wildlife and are visually appealing, as they provide contrast to the dark conifers in all seasons.
