Warming up to winter

A

s the first snowflakes of the season begin to fall and the days begin to shorten, it’s easy to think it’s time for hibernation. But winters in Colorado are far from dark and dreary.

The winter months are peak season for local symphonies and theater companies. In Boulder, the winter brings the Boulder International Film Festival to town. Mountain towns and ski areas blossom with events and the kind of high-altitude attitude that keeps us wanting to come back for more.

November and December bring a bevy of holiday events to lift the spirits. January follows with literary and theater events to keep your brain in high gear and concerts to keep you doing more dancing than it takes to keep warm in the ski lift line. And by February and March,

Boulder Weekly Winter Scene 2013-2014

it’s high ski season, a time for days in the snow that wrap up with ski town charm.

It’s too much to keep track of alone, so we’ve done the work for you, and rounded up events from around town to across the state and put them in one location for your planning ease.

We open this year’s Winter Scene with a roundup of Colorado’s ski areas, updating you on the latest at some of the greatest ski areas in the country.

That’s followed by a calendar of concerts and events across the Front Range and a statewide events calendar to set you up to make the most of your winter weekends.

May it lead to many a wintry night filled with entertainment, warmth and light.

And back bowls and snowcat-accessed terrain offer a taste of the backcountry. And if you’re serious about landing that backflip, Copper Mountain’s indoor training facility lets you practice in foam pits and

trampolines.

The Ridge has recently opened catskiing, conditions permitting, and has hike-to terrain that wraps around the entire top of the open basin — beautiful, steep, wide open and often deep in powder skiing. Spend Valentine’s Day there and you’ll be kneedeep in lovebirds, too.

Go 100 percent natural at Monarch. In a world of man-made snow, Monarch eschews the snow guns in favor of waiting on the hundreds of inches of snow that regularly fall across this resort. Skiers make the most of them by tapping the cat skiing tours to access a ranging area of trees and steep bowls or hiking to an additional 130 acres of extreme terrain. But the lift-accessed trees are also touted as some of the most enjoyable in the state — and often untouched.

POWDERHORN Peak: 9,850 feet Base: 8,200 feet Vertical Rise: 1,650 feet Average Snowfall: 250 inches Skiable Acres: 1,600 Lifts: 5 Trails: 63 % of Beginner/Intermediate/Expert Terrain: 20/50/30 Bowl Skiing: N Powdercat Skiing: N Resort: N Day Ticket Price: $59 Adult/$51 Sr./$30 Youth Opening Date: Dec. 12 Perched on the side of the 10,000-foot-high Grand Mesa in western Colorado, Powderhorn Mountain Resort is a sleeper and a treat. The resort has snagged some of the best snow in the state in recent years and the place rarely has lift lines, allowing you to make the most of your day. And you’ll want to spend at least part of it in their glades, wide open aspen groves that often go untracked.

PURGATORY AT DURANGO MOUNTAIN RESORT Peak: 10,822 feet Base: 8,793 feet Vertical Rise: 2,029 feet Average Snowfall: 260 inches Skiable Acres: 1,360 Lifts: 10 Trails: 85 % of Beginner/Intermediate/ Expert Terrain: 20/45/35 Bowl Skiing: N Powdercat Skiing: Y Resort: Y Day Ticket Price: $77 Adult/$66 Sr./$60 Student/$46 Child Opening Date: Nov. 29 Purgatory Mountain claims its fame stems from consistent, dry powder that arrives in frequent storms.

But for those moments when nature needs a little help, the reosrt has added new snowmaking tower guns.

This year, there are also new grooming machines and a new six-person high-speed chairlift designed to improve top-to-bottom skiing. For a walk on the wilder side, the San Juan Untracked, formerly The San Juan Ski Company, runs cat skiing and snowboarding operations out of the resort that access 35,000 acres of bowls, cliffs and chutes.

It’s unique, small, challenging — it’s basically the independent craft brewery or the farm-to-table restaurant of skiing. It’s a single lift or a helicopter ride, then a steep drop down the backcountry, full of chutes and drops. Expert guides help find powder stashes even days after the last snowfall.

Somehow, Snowmass stays uncrowded, despite its steep runs, cruisers, gorgeous views and all-around excellent skiing.

Friday, November 22 Frozen Dead Guy Days March 7-9 Nederland, 303-506-1048 This quirky world-renowned festival in Ned celebrates the dead guy who resides under dry ice in a Tuff Shed. No kidding. One-time Nederland resident Bredo Morstoel didn’t much like the idea of dying. So he decided he should be frozen so he could come back later when we had advanced to the point where we could cure what ailed him at the time of his demise. But like a lot of us, he lacked the mega bucks for first-rate cryogenic technology so he just opted to be kept on dry ice in a metal shed. We don’t know if Bredo’s plan is gonna work, but the good citizens of Nederland have decided to celebrate their frozen dead guy with one of the world’s most unusual festivals every year just in case. Lots of craziness at this one. For more info and a schedule of bizarre events go to frozendeadguydays.org.

Annual 1940s and ’50s White Christmas Ball December 7 Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum, 7711 E. Academy Blvd., Denver This December, the White Christmas Ball will return to impart a little bit of that ’40s and ’50s charm on its guests for a fourth year.

This year’s special guest is ’50s rock legend Wanda Jackson. The ball takes place at Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum, which will be decorated to transport guests into a wintry scene from decades past.

When you aren’t experiencing the past through WWII artifacts at the museum or reliving the early days of rock and roll with Wanda, you can dive into the Christmas spirit with some open-fire chestnut roasting with Santa or watch a re-enactment of the classic film White Christmas.

Tickets to the event are $40 if purchased in advance. For more info and tickets visit www.1940sball.org.

2nd Annual Silver Queen Pageant February 8 Crested Butte Mountain Resort, 500 Gothic Road, Crested Butte, 800-444-9236 Don’t know what to do this coming Feb. 8? Then head on up to Crested Butte for one of this winter’s most bizarre and outrageously fun events, the not-so-normal beauty pageant known as the Silver Queen.

The winner of this pageant takes home a 2013-14 Crested Butte Mountain Resort Gold Pass, so as you can imagine the competition is fierce. But this isn’t a pageant for the faint of heart. Here are the three categories that the judges will be considering before crowning this year’s queen, according to the contest info.

Swimsuit Ski Racing on Warming House Hill. This will take place on a dual slalom course on Warming House Hill, and races are single elimination. A Silver Queen should prove crafty in creating her own custom swimsuit and simultaneously be adept at skiing/riding. Winners of each race will be given a swimsuit style score advancing into the next round.

Evening Gown Mechanical Bull Riding on Butte 66 Deck. Each contestant will have two minutes maximum on the bull with increasing difficulty. Contestants may be asked to finish a song lyric or answer trivia questions while riding.

Judges Interview & Minute to Win It Talent Competition – Butte 66 Indoor Stage.

Judges will have a pre-selected list of questions of their choosing. Contestants will be allowed to select the judge whose question they’d like to answer. This will be followed by a one-minute talent competition best highlighting the candidate’s talent.

As you can imagine it’s one big party, so don’t miss it.
