Annual burro race in Idaho Springs ends neck and neck

Burros took over Georgetown and Idaho Springs over Memorial Day weekend, wandering down Miner Street to the starting line of the mountain towns’ annual burro races.

Voted Best Realtor Clear Creek County

A new bus route from Denver through Idaho Springs and all the way to Avon opened Memorial Day weekend.

Called “Pegasus,” the shuttle van’s route runs Friday through Sunday — with a few late afternoon times on Thursday and early morning times on Monday — and costs only $6 round trip from Idaho Springs to Denver’s Union Station and back, and up to $20 from Denver to Avon.

Buses arrive every hour, but the wait between buses is shortened to 45 minutes in the afternoons.

Still, Clear Creek County Commissioner Randy Wheelock wants even more public transport.

Wheelock had been working with the I-70 Coalition and the I-70 Collaborative Effort for almost three years to get these smaller versions of the Bustang buses out on the roads and was on the maiden journey of the bus line on May 27.

The goal is to “create more mobility and transit services for Clear Creek County and the whole I-70 corridor,” he said.

To prove his point of the functionality of the buses, Wheelock remotely attended a Front Range Passenger Rail meeting — of which he is a non-voting member of the Board of Directors — through the bus’s wifi.

Pegasus shuttle bus by Bustang recently started operations through the I-70 mountain corridor.

I70 FROM PAGE 1

He wants to make sure they are thinking about “integrating with all the rest of us, so we have a statewide integrated transit system that people can really use,” Wheelock said.

I-70 Coalition is a non-profit representing 28 local governments and businesses along the I-70 mountain corridor, according to its website.

Some of those governments include Eagle County, Aspen, Avon and Brekenridge, along with Clear Creek County.

The I-70 Collaborative Effort is a project through the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) to address transport solutions in the I-70 mountain corridor. Similarly, it’s made up of 28 members including some local governments — like Clear Creek County — but also multiple CDOT representatives, the US Forest Service, the US Army Corps of Engineers, the I-70 Coalition itself and the Federal Transit Administration.

“A really big piece to think of is that Clear Creek County is a very small county, sandwiched around the I-70 corridor,” Wheelock said.

“And there’s a huge amount of demand for transportation, and a huge amount of economy that’s built around people satisfying that demand, from the Denver area to the mountains.”

Wheelock said the demand is made up of around 3.5 million people, but will eventually grow to 5 million. And this is what both organizations and Wheelock are trying to address.

A large amount of the Collaborative Effort’s non-infrastructure ideas are various improvements in public transport as well as people’s thoughts around it, including shuttle buses like the Pegasus and finding ways to “change the car culture and build transit ridership.”

The Collaborative Effort’s work plan includes “incentivizing” the use of these public transit options, and building “support for highspeed transit in the future.”

“We’re kind of like the mouse trying to lead the elephant around and not get stepped on,” Wheelock said,

referring to Clear Creek County commissioners and leaders trying to chair these organizations to help keep the county’s interests in mind in the projects.

A major structural project is the Coalition’s and CDOT’s Floyd Hill Project which aims to fix a two-lane bottleneck between Floyd Hill and Idaho Springs by adding a third lane, among other structural improvements to the highway.

These small public transport improvements and further highway fixes will “add some additional capacity to this corridor, but will not fix the congestion issues,” according to the I-70 Coalition.

Widening the highway and an improved transit system would be required to “meet the needs of the I-70 mountain corridor into the year 2050,” according to the Coalition.

The idea the Coalition has for an improved transit system in its longterm plan is currently not financially feasible, though.

CDOT did a study on the feasibility of an Advanced Guideway System (AGS) — a generic term for a high speed transit system like a monorail that would add “signifi-

cant capacity” — and it was found to be “technically feasible but is not financially feasible at this time.”

The cost for these projects, like the AGS, would be “many billions of dollars” according to the Coalition, with CDOT being the organization to fulfill these ideas.

But CDOT’s budget is “barely able to cover Operations & Maintenance, much less building new capacity,” and CDOT estimates it has “$9B worth of backlogged projects/maintenance needs.”

Wheelock points to the cost of driving your own car through the I-70 corridor as a good motivator to try the Pegasus.

He explained that after insurance, oil changes and other car maintenance, it costs about 55 cents per mile to own a car. “It cost me $39 today, in three different segments, to ride 234 miles. My vehicle would have cost me, for that same 234 miles, about $129. Looking at the gas cost alone, it would have cost me about $35. So, it cost me just four more dollars to be able to do this, save costs ... and reduce climate impact.”

ing back down Buttermilk Gulch to Wall Street, finishing at a crowded Virginia Street and 16th Avenue for a total of about six miles.

The winner of the race, with a time of 41:03, was Bob Sweeney — the winner of the Georgetown race the day before, and of the Idaho Springs race last year. After the race, he said he was feeling good,

having beat his time last year by about five minutes. He said Yukon, his burro, was “ready and waiting for another.”

Sweeney finished neck and neck with Travis Macy. Before the race, Sweeney mentioned that Macy was close behind him the entire Georgetown race the day before, and to watch for him on his backside this race. He was proven right when Macy came in second by a hair with a time of 41:04. Laughing, Macy said he was doing well, and “ran as fast as I could with a donkey.”

Bob Sweeney crossing the finish line of the annual Idaho Springs burro race with a time of 41:03, with Travis Macy following by only a second.

Coming in third place with a time of 46:17 was Rob Wright, and fourth was Tracy Loughlin with 46:18, similarly coming in after Wright by only a hair. Wright said that during the race he came off course, with Tracy helping him back on trail. The donkey did not like jumping over streams and logs he said, continuing that, “I totally got lost in the woods, then did the crappy thing of coming ahead [of Loughlin].”

Loughlin was certainly pushing her burro, Mary-Margret, near the end, while Wright’s pulled ahead

him to the finish line. But Loughlin was in good spirits, saying it’s the best race she’s ever done, and she’s competed in about 10.

For Teresa and Remus, two locals watching the starting line from the end of 17th Avenue, this was their first race.

“We live here, but we’re always working,” they said. “We’d see them when they set up, but not where they actually go.”

King-Murphy’s new principal excited to embrace the mountain school

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

King-Murphy Elementary School’s new principal is ready to embrace the school and the community, and she wants to spread the word about the educational opportunities there.

TJ Bonham, who was the principal at Stevens Elementary School in Wheat Ridge, was hired a few months ago to head the Clear Creek school near Stagecoach Boulevard and Witter Gulch Road with input from educators, parents and students.

Clear Creek Superintendent Karen Quanbeck is thrilled that Bonham has taken the helm of the school, saying Bonham’s strengths, passion and skill sets match what the community said it wanted.

Bonham helped Stevens Elementary move to expeditionary learning, the learning model that KingMurphy is moving toward. Plus, Quanbeck said, Bonham is all about community.

“That’s one of the things we need to do at King-Murphy,” Quanbeck noted.

Quanbeck said Bonham was one of three candidates interviewed for the position, explaining that all three candidates were highly qualified. Bonham replaces Tony Pascoe, King-Murphy’s principal since fall 2017, who left at the end of December to lead the elementary school at the International School of Florence in Italy.

Bonham spent some time at the

school in the spring in preparation for taking over as principal in July.

She called King-Murphy an amazing school.

“We need more people to know about the opportunities there,” Bonham said. “There are so many possibilities for students to explore in so many different ways. I want everyone to know about it. This is a hidden treasure.”

Bonham and her husband will be moving to the area. She has a son still in high school and the couple have four adult daughters between them.

Bonham worked in the education software industry before becoming a teacher and then an administrator.

She has been a principal for eight years.

“This is a dream job,” she said.

“The kids are amazing: so kind, so fun and so interesting. The staff is energized and ready to go. They embrace change and what’s good for kids.”

Bonham said every facet of education fascinates her, though what he loves most is being with the students, calling it joyful.

The King-Murphy students took a field trip to Stevens Elementary for a day of activities before the school year ended, and Bonham hopes the Stevens students will travel to KingMurphy this year.

She called herself energetic and passionate, enjoying bringing the community into the school.

“School is a place to come together

and find common ground,” Bonham said. “I want parents to help with and experience education so we can

really grow a community of learners and explorers.”

Idaho Springs approves businesses serving alcohol in outdoor seating City Council expands liquor licenses to include outdoor seating

The Idaho Springs City Council approved the expansion of the premises covered by multiple business’ liquor licenses in the city on May 31. Functionally, this allows the businesses to serve alcohol in the outdoor seating areas that stretch onto the street.

Most of the applications were submitted the last week of April, including various explanations of how they will manage outdoor seating and make it known to customers where they are allowed with alcohol.

Some of the businesses approved were Beau Jo’s Pizza, Slaymakers Sellers and MTN Prime. A total of 12 were approved — all the applicants considered — with almost all located on Miner Street.

The council reiterated that these expansions are not permanent modifications to the business’ liquor licenses, but additions that are dependent on the seasonal closing of Miner Street for outdoor seating.

The additions themselves are permanent though, not requiring the council to approve the modifications every season.

The Idaho Springs pedestrian marketplace on Miner Street from 14th and 17th Avenues with the cross-streets open. Most restaurants have outdoor seating areas.

Berber-Corriero, Lenz to use alumni scholarships to study communications, computer science

BY EINAR JENSEN CCHS ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

The Clear Creek High School Alumni Association has announced the recipients of its annual scholarship competition. Congratulations to Maya Berber-Corriero and J.T. Lenz.

Although communications and computer science don’t sound related on the surface, our scholarship winners are using each major for similar reasons. They both want to improve the world in which they now have greater roles.

Berber-Corriero believes communications is a force for uniting individuals, cultures, nations, and the world.

“I want to be a way for different backgrounds to be able to communicate with one another,” she said.

She cited the war in Ukraine as but one real-world example of the consequences of poor communication and misunderstanding.

“I would aspire to become a journalist to allow people to hear what is going on in other countries as well as other states in our country,” she said.“I want to unify people instead of seeing them divided.”

Berber-Corriero said that laws

against the LBGTQ community are an example of misunderstandings that cause “a spiral of hatred and political disagreements.”

“She is consistently prepared and demonstrates an ability to synthesize complex material,” said

Social Studies Teacher Tina BarberMatthew.

Berber-Corriero wants to build on her Advanced Placement Government success and her 75+ hours of community service to study fields that empower her to relieve differ-

ences that cause as many divisions.

This fall Lenz will begin his studies at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden. He plans to study computer science “because I’m optimistic towards our technological development as a society,” he said.

Lenz took seven advanced placement courses at Clear Creek High.

“He is a highly motivated and diligent learner,” Kayla Crego, CCHS Instrumental Music Director, wrote in a letter of reference for Lenz.

“His most apparent qualities as a student are his work ethic and his metacognitive ability.”

He applied those attributes to academic learning and to playing the trumpet where he matured from “a good high school player to an impressively sensitive musician,” Crego said.

After college, Lenz wants to start a business that “contributes to society” while continuing to balance work with his hobbies including trumpet and rock climbing.

Three other members of the Class of 2022 also applied for this scholarship program: Breyda Spinner, Aiden Kocol, and Bridget Egan.

They, too, are destined for success.

We all have our own reasons for sometimes preferring the company of books to the real world. However, while it is unfair to suggest that those who enjoy reading are isolated by nature, there are still times when any of us experience feelings of loneliness, loss, and longing, and it helps to know that there are plenty of books to turn to if we need someone or something to relate to in those moments.

This kind of loneliness is a powerful force in the lives of all three protagonists in A Town Called Solace. Whether it is caused by grief, confusion, or simply an inability to connect with others, it haunts them and ultimately drives them toward each other. A young girl waits steadfastly for her missing sister to return home; a dying woman narrates her memories and experiences to her late husband; and a man leaves everything he has ever known to hide away in a tiny town in Northern Canada where he can procrastinate making decisions about his future. As their motivations become clear and they replay the steps that have led each of them to where they are, the seemingly thinly connected plots begin to intersect and influence each other in surprising ways.

This novel carries a feeling of incompleteness, truly illustrating the fact that we are only witnessing a brief period of each character’s life. It plainly shows that a decision made in a moment of despair can permanently affect someone’s destiny, but it leaves the extent of the change partly up to the reader’s imagination. The narrative approach of alternating perspectives captures the child’s struggle to understand, the old woman’s wry reflectiveness, and the untethered man’s ennui, offering readers a wide range of emotions and situations – from the mundane to the devastating – to connect to, empathize with, and relate back to themselves.

That connection and empathy is what keeps us coming back and lets us feel understood, even at our lowest points. For that reason, no matter how incomprehensible it may be to those who never found a passion for it, reading remains the truest and quickest path a dedicated book lover can take to feel less alone.

Pressure to succeed is costing kids their childhoods Expectations have shifted over the course of generations

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As we forge forward through the 2020s, the pressure for youth to succeed is starting to impact kids as early as preschool and could be robbing of them of their childhood as societal demands create more pressure and anxiety than ever before.

Over the last 100 years, the pressure to succeed in America has mounted. Whether it is the need to live the clichéd American Dream or the requirements set by parents that children will succeed and follow the path laid out for them, kids are taught early on that they have to not only get a high school diploma but, to be happy and successful, they must go to college as well.

A comic, created by Cartoonist Hilary Price, shows a mom lying on a table watching the sonogram of her baby. As the doctor checks things out, they start discussing the fact that it is never too early to start signing them up for sports and activities.

Child psychologists agree that at some point over the last few decades, parents started wanting their children to succeed so badly that it became a “keeping up with the Joneses” mentality. The need to do the

activities, have a flourishing child in academics and athletics and keep them busy is an obsession.

What is lost in this pressure being put on children today is childhood.

As Children’s Hospital Colorado Mental Health-in-Chief Dr. Ron-Li Liaw said, “Childhood is a gift, and we are spoiling it with expectations.”

Liaw, whose own family migrated to the U.S. and put similar pressures and her and her brother, said children of all ages and young adults entering college today are under more pressure to succeed than ever before.

Unfortunately, Liaw said, this results in higher anxiety, stress, fear of failure and poor mental health.

Changes by generation During the Silent Generation, which includes those born between 1925 and 1945, students were barely pushed to get high school diplomas.

Getting a job out of high school did not necessarily require a college degree, and families could still manage.

For women, getting an education was even less of a priority during the World War II era. Golden resident Audrey Pappenbrook, 83, said her dad told her she was expected to have children and raise a family.

She was not even expected to finish high school and going to college was almost unheard of for women.

Fast forward to the Baby Boomer generation, those born between 1946 and 1964, Pappenbrook said her own

From school work, planning for college and all other activities, students feel more SHUTTERSTOCK pressure today than ever before.

daughter Audrey Brooks, 62, was told grades are important and a high school diploma was a necessity. Pappenbrook said she gave her daughter the option to use savings for a wedding or go to college. Brooks chose college and was the only female student sitting in engineering classes at a college in Illinois.

Jumping ahead to when psychologists agree that a major shift in expectations started is with the Millennials, or those born between 1981 and 1996.

Aurora resident Leah Neu described a world filled with anxiety,

where coming home with a math test score of 91% meant her father wanting to know why. In her sophomore year in college, when Neu failed a math class, her father wanted to go have a talk with the professor.

Now, high schoolers and young adults, known as Generation Z, are feeling the effects of an ever-evolving wheel of higher expectations to finish college, look good on paper and succeed. The problem is for a lot of them, they are not the ones in SEE SUCCEED, P14

control.

The parental impact Clinical psychologist Jenna Glover, of Children’s Hospital Colorado, said a parent’s impact on the direction in a child’s life has become more of a “culture thing.”

“We are in a competitive world where parents want to put kids in the best possible position to succeed,” Glover said. “(Parents) keep making them do more and more.

Parents do not take a step back and kids don’t either.”

Liaw said instead of sending their children the message that it is “OK to just be yourself,” parents have placed a higher priority on stressing the need for the best grades, the best in athletics, the need to be involved in music, foreign languages and clubs.

Liaw said social media has only exacerbated the issues. At one time, she said, parents would compete in their circles. Once social media became common, parents started seeing what everyone everywhere is doing. That meant even stiffer competition to have perfect children, Liaw said.

“As parents, it is important to not get in the way of who (our children) were meant to be,” Liaw said. “It is not easy to navigate as a parent today.”

Glover said for kids, it means wanting to please parents by joining more, working harder and doing better.

“This has led to kids having stress,

anxiety and suffering from exhaustion,” Glover said. “They are so busy in their daily lives that they are starting homework at 9 p.m. and only sleeping for a few hours. In reality, it is a really narrow route we put kids on from preschool and up.

Really, we are lacking in flexibility.

This leads to some kids getting in a situation where they fail. But they have not necessarily learned to pick yourself up and find the new avenue.”

Arapahoe Community College Dean of Students Javon Brame said policies have had to be put in place at the college level to prevent “helicopter parents” from managing their children’s lives even after they are considered adults.

A helicopter parent is a parent who takes an overprotective or excessive interest in the life of their children. Some of the signs of a helicopter parent include excessive anxiety about their children failing, hovering rather than encouraging and being overly involved in academics, recreational activities and friendships.

Brame said the local community college has had instances where parents have tried to change their child’s class schedules without their knowledge. The college has also had meeting with parents where administrators have to stress the student is in charge and can make their own choices regarding their education.

“We want students to have a support system and find their own way,” Brame said. “We need them to do this without their helicopter parents.”

Neu said her father comes from a medical background and expected her to follow suit. The Colorado

Community Media graphic designer said she eventually had to stand up to him and make her own career choice.

Neu said her relationship with her father now is good and she does not regret standing up to him, but noted it was really tense to go into the arts rather than medicine based on the expectations he placed on her starting at a young age.

Working at Arapahoe Community College for more than a decade, Brame said problems were starting to emerge several generations ago, but parents of Millennials have elevated the issues.

Glover said there are solutions to improving the current, fragile state of youth development today.

“I encourage parents to take a step back and reflect on what it really means to have a successful child,” she said.

Some principals to follow, Glover said, are for parents to be able to: • Be flexible • Be respectful • Be adaptable Failing to succeed The danger in the paths parents and society have established for children and young adults is the threat of failure.

Brame said students are already coming into college with the pressures and anxiety developed in high school where they had to have the right friends, make the best grades, achieve the right status through clubs and extracurricular activities.

Once in college, students start getting a taste of the real world through carrying a full class load, and working and trying to keep up with the cost of inflation to eat and pay rent.

Brame said it is not unusual for colleges to transport students to local health institution to get mental health evaluations because they cannot handle meeting the expectations parents and society have put on them.

“For mental health and education, it’s like a third pandemic,” Brame said. “They are carrying a full workload and so much weight and anxiety on their shoulders that something as simple as a flat tire pushes them past the breaking point.”

Brame said having counseling and mental health services available to students on campus is more important now that ever before.

While Arapahoe Community College is working to keep up with demand, Brame said on a national level, many institutions are behind in implementing the level of mental health care students need.

Dr. Sophia Meharena, a pediatrician serving patients in Aurora, said failure is hidden from children and youth today. Because failure is not an option, as adolescents grow, they do not know what it looks like, which means at the college level and beyond when young adults experience failure, they are not able to react.

Meharena, a Centennial resident, said parents have their own failures but tend to hide them from children, when they should be doing the opposite. Seeing a parent fail and move forward is important for children to see, she said.

Brame said without experiencing failure in their young lives, a young adult does not have the mental capability to pick themselves up and move on, learning from failure rather than just giving up.

Women photographers take center stage Denver Art Museum exhibit runs through summer ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

Perhaps the most iconic photograph of the Great Depression wouldn’t have been produced if it weren’t for a gut instinct that Dorothea Lange turns back to a peapickers camp in Nipomo, California in 1936.

The image — a black and white close-up of a gaunt-looking woman holding a sleeping baby flanked by two more small children — “exists in more formats, prints, and places than (arguably) any other photograph in the world,” Museum of Modern Art curator Sarah Hermanson Meister wrote in a 2018 book about the 20th century photographer.

On display this summer at the Denver Art Museum in “Modern Women/Modern Vision,” Lange’s photo is remarkably more powerful in person, hanging among the work of other impactful women photog-

raphers who also followed their intuition to capture images vital to journalism, history and photography as an artform.

“Women embraced the medium early on, in part because photography had fewer barriers for female participation, compared with more traditional art forms such as painting and sculpture,” said Christoph Heinrich, the Frederick and Jan Mayer Director of the Denver Art Museum.

It was thanks to groups such as The Photo League and Group f/64 — which welcomed women during eras where opportunities in the art world were hard to come by — that some of the world’s most iconic images exist.

The DAM exhibit is divided into six parts, spanning from “modernist innovators” such as documentary photographer Margaret BourkeWhite who went on to be the first woman to serve as a U.S. war correspondent to contemporary creatives, which includes Carrie Mae Weems and her iconic fictional Kitchen Table Series, where she turned the camera on herself.

“Women working in photography today owe much to the generations who paved the way during the 20th century,” said Eric Paddock, the exhibit’s local curator. “The diverse styles, subject matter, techniques and intentions exemplified by the artists in ‘Modern Women/Modern Vision’ demonstrate the determination and inventiveness with which women pursued their craft.”

For some, it was urban street photography. Helen Levitt, New York’s unofficial “visual poet laureate” who was an early pioneer of modern street photography, captured gritty working-class neighborhoods over the space of several decades with a discreet shooting style that spawned images that were both theatrical and realistic.

For others, the camera and lens allowed even more creative freedom and traditional techniques helped to evolve photography, pushing the boundaries of what the medium can do. “Revenge of the Goldfish” — a staged photograph — by Sandy Skoglund is an easy measure of how many possibilities a tool meant to capture the real can have in a made-

up space.

“The origins of my interest in mixing natural and artificial arise from my being a spectator of myself as I behave in the world. I see myself naturally attracted to some very artificial things, almost as if my life depended on it…,” she said in a 2008 interview about her art. “To me, a world without artificial enhancement is unimaginable, and harshly limited to raw nature by itself without human intervention… the mixing of the natural and the artificial is what I do every day of my life, and I hope that I am not alone in this process.”

In all, “Modern Women/Modern Vision” features more than 100 images and a series of programming designed around the exhibition. A full schedule can be found at www. denverartmuseum.org.

Dear Davis Schilken, I’ve been watching a lot of T.V. the past few weeks due to the inclement weather. I can’t help but notice all the ads for “do it yourself Wills and Estate Planning.” Is this something that I should do if I don’t have a Will or Estate Plan in place for me and my family?

Sincerely, DIY Daryl Dear DIY Daryl, We always tell clients that having something is better than having nothing. However, be very cautious when it comes to “do it yourself” Wills and Estate Plans. Like most difficult things in life, the wisest thing to do is reach out to a professional. If you have a burst pipe or a blown fuse, you’re probably going to reach out to a Plumber or Electrician. Why wouldn’t you do the same for your family when it comes to your Estate?

You should always be hesitant when it comes to “do it yourself” legal documents. Legal documents such as Wills and Trusts are riddled with legalese that you have probably never seen before and wouldn’t understand anyway. While it may seem like a good idea from the outset, no Will, Trust, or Estate Plan is ever one size fits all. Below is a list of common mistakes when it comes to these types of documents: 1.

Unintended Disinheritance of Beneficiaries

2.

Misinterpreted or incorrect State specific legal language

3.

Improperly filled out forms

4.

Improper Tax Planning

5.

Lack of Disability or Death Planning

6.

Do it yourself documents are not flexible. They don’t understand the complexity of your Estate Plan. You can, and likely will, overlook small and simple errors that will likely end up costing you and your loved ones more heartache and headache when the time comes. Compound this with the realization that your Estate Plan is not for you – it is for your loved ones. Why would you want to risk your family’s well being on such a preventable error?

If you want something done the right way, reach out to a licensed professional to ensure that you and your family are protected when the time comes. Contact Davis Schilken PC, with any of your Estate Plan needs (303)670-9855. We make estate planning simple!

Invasive mussels haven’t been found in Colorado’s lakes and reservoirs Wildlife officials are battling to keep it that way

BY TATIANA FLOWERS THE COLORADO SUN

Zebra and quagga mussels do not yet exist in Colorado’s lakes and reservoirs, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife leaders are working hard to keep it that way.

They’re stepping up enforcement efforts through a statewide decontamination program. Each year, the department runs the Aquatic Nuisance Species Program, where inspectors at 73 locations decontaminate boats before they enter and exit Colorado’s waterways.

Since the program’s inception in 2008, almost 500,000 boats have been inspected annually. The inspections help detect species like zebra and quagga mussels that attach to boats.

If knocked off, the muscles can drop into, and infect, Colorado waters.

“Each year, the number of boats we are intercepting here in Colorado is increasing significantly,” said Robert Walters, invasive species program manager. “In 2017, we intercepted 26 boats coming into the state that had mussels on them. In 2021 alone, we intercepted 181.”

awareness campaign this month ahead of Memorial Day, which is when the boating season generally kicks off in Colorado.

A single mussel can produce up to 1 million babies in a single year.

The aquatic nuisances can attach to solid or semi-solid surfaces and clog up boat engines or distribution

pipes at water treatment facilities.

In those cases, the mussels can disrupt recreation and cause millions of dollars in damage to infrastructure. Once mussels are introduced into a region’s waterway, they are impossible to remove.

MUSSELS FROM PAGE 16

The greatest risk comes from boats traveling out of state, particularly to Lake Powell, on the Utah-Arizona border. The popular destination for Colorado boaters is infested with quagga mussels. Any time boaters travel outside of the state, it’s even more important that they ensure their boats are cleaned, drained and dry before launching back into Colorado, Walters said.

“Our program has been effective for almost 15 years at stopping these species from becoming established in Colorado waters,” he said. “But many other states don’t have the same level of protection, so every year mussels spread into new waters in our surrounding states, which increases our level of risk here in Colorado.”

For some, the inspection process could take less than 1 minute, said Luke Stucker, a senior ranger managing the aquatic nuisance program, at Cherry Creek State Park.

If the boat has just returned from an area containing many invasive species, such as Lake Powell, the decontamination process will likely take longer, he said.

Every state park has a decontamination station, where boats sit on a trailer, away from bodies of water.

Inspectors move through the vessel, checking the rear, outside and interior compartments of the boat.

Then, 140-degree water is used to decontaminate the boat, killing any invasive species present. All the water is then drained into an open field or retention pond, Stucker said.

Most boaters are already aware of their responsibility to have their boats inspected before launching it into local water. But the pandemic added a new layer of complexity

for state leaders trying to keep local lakes and reservoirs safe. Many people became first-time boaters during the pandemic and aren’t educated about the inspection process and the need for it, Stucker said.

Mussels can live outside of water for 27 days under the right conditions. The filter feeders can pass almost an entire liter of water through their shells each day, consuming nutrients needed by other fish and plants in the ecosystem.

Their high levels of filter feeding can alter food sources in lakes and reservoirs. And when mussels defecate or dry out on shorelines, they can cause a rancid smell, making it less desirable to recreate in these areas, Walters said.

“There’s a whole slew of potential recreational impacts,” he added.

“In Eastern Europe, they had a role in filtering water and were a food source for native species that kept them in check. Here in Colorado,

they would not serve much of a purpose, and would mostly cause problems.”

Inspectors are among those with the most important jobs in the state, which is to protect Colorado’s waterways, Stucker said. As an avid boater, he works to ensure that his kids can grow up with the same opportunities he had as a child while recreating on Colorado’s lakes and rivers.

“If I can prevent that mussel boat from launching, or if my inspectors can prevent that mussel boat from launching, then it’s a win in my book,” he said.
