BEAVER CREEK TO DEBUT RED BUFFALO PARK DURING 2017-2018 SEASON To improve the experience for beginner and intermediate skiers and further establish Beaver Creek as the world’s best luxury family resort, Beaver Creek Resort is dedicating more than 200 acres of terrain as a family and adventure learning area. Red Buffalo Park, located at the mountain’s highest elevation, 11,440 feet, provides 13 trails designated as a family learning area. At the heart of Red Buffalo Park, the new Red Buffalo Express Lift (#5), a highspeed quad, will improve the beginner experience by decreasing lift lines and providing a shorter, 4.3 minute ride to the top of the mountain.

C
aptivating kids in the kitchen is just one of Casey Easton’s many specialties. Founder and chef at Food
Lab in Boulder, Easton employs her knowledge of a vast vari-
ety of cooking and baking techniques to teach people aged 6 and up how to craft stunning meals, appreciate healthy ingredients and utilize new skill sets and flavors. Easton began by teaching adults, but after becoming a parent herself, she began hosting classes for kids. As she learned firsthand, getting youth involved in cooking and baking is not only a blast but is also highly beneficial for the kids. Easton explains, “...it is such an important life skill to be able to feed yourself…[kids] get to know what real foods are, and it helps divert them away from processed junk.” Additionally, teaching kids to cook is an invaluable way of broadening their palates, as they are much more likely to try foods that they think are ‘weird’ at first glance once they realize what the food is actually made from. Pesto, for example, is a something that most kids will automatically claim to dislike; however, when you show them what goes into it—parmesan, basil and nuts, three things many kids love—they often change their tune. Easton notes that when kids get to create a new food themselves and see what goes into it, they are far more likely to try it and like it. For Easton and her family, the holidays are a great excuse to craft classics like pumpkin and berry pies. For those wanting to get their children interested in cooking at home, the season provides ample opportunity to get them engaged. Bringing out a child’s inner chef really boils down to getting them involved. With that in mind, Easton has provided us with a tried-and-true, kid-pleasing recipe guaranteed to get Boulder's next generation of culinary masters off to a strong start (with a sweet incentive).
BERRY PIE DOUGH: 1¼ cup flour 2 TBSP sugar ½ tsp salt ½ cup cold butter, cut into pieces 2 TBSP shortening ¼ cup water BERRY FILLING: 4 cups fresh or frozen berries 1 to 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 4 TBSP cornstarch 1 ½ TBSP butter 1 TBSP sugar
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place berries in medium saucepan over medium heat, cover. Cook until the cherries lose 3/4 of their juice, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cornstarch together. Pour this mixture into the hot berries and mix well. Return the mixture to the stove and cook over low heat until thickened, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat and let cool. If the filling is too thick, add a little water, too thin, add a little more cornstarch. Prepare your crust. Divide in half. Roll out each piece large enough to fit into an 8 to 9-inch pan. Pour cooled berry mixture into the crust. Dot with butter. Moisten edge of bottom crust. Place top crust on and flute the edge of the pie. Make a slit in the middle of the crust for steam to escape. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for about 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and place on a rack to cool.

Crafting a Home CREATIVE INNOVATION AND COLLABORATION RESULT IN A STUNNING HOMECOMING FOR A PAIR OF RETURNING BUFFS.
ARTICLE KELLI RUHL PHOTOGRAPHY KYLIE FITTS DESIGNER KRISTIN KEIFER
W
hen it came time to find their dream home, Jim and Suzanne knew exactly
where they wanted to go: back to their roots. The CU alums, who currently live in California, have meticulously maintained their connection to Boulder, routinely bringing their family back to ski, fish and, of course, go to Buffs' games. Though they have called California home for many years, they’ve always known that, ultimately, Boulder was where they wanted to be. When the couple began planning their move back to Boulder, they searched for almost two years before finding Trailhead, a development nestled at the base of Mount Sanitas, just a short walk from Pearl Street. They loved the location, but their newly purchased lot came with limitations: the property was smaller than they had anticipated buying, and came with building guidelines specific to the development. Their challenge lay in finding a way to build the home they’d been dreaming of—a welcoming, spacious retreat for family and friends—within those guidelines.

A FEW OF INTERIOR DESIGNER KRISTIN KEIFER’S FAVORITE THINGS • 1960s Swedish Rosewood Arne Norell Sirocco Safari Chairs • Custom-made White Chapel Hardware • Leather Bar Stools from BDDW • Walnut cabinetry crafted by Matt Olivas at The Artisan Shop • Vintage Rugs
Jim and Suzanne brought in TreeLine Homes, led by Contractor Derek Guarascio and Project Manager Candice McGuire, to build the house, and Interior Designer Kristin Keifer, a close family friend, to consult. The group tweaked architectural elements where they could and added their unique touches. One distinct example of their innovation is a blued-steel staircase with floating walnut treads, Jim’s favorite part of the home, which functions as both a beautiful addition to the home’s interior and a fundamental piece of its architecture. Another inventive feature came to about after Guarascio got creative with a steel support beam in the basement—essential, but not aesthetically appealing—and turned it into the anchor for a stunning CONTINUED >

glass-walled wine cellar. Other notable elements include a downstairs living room that morphs into a screening room, a stone patio that features an Argentinian barbecue and a NanaWall—a Germanstyle wall of folding glass panels—which opens up the front of the house to provide unhindered access to the front porch and garden. Keifer selected pieces for the home’s interior carefully, wanting the beauty of the architecture to speak for itself. She pulled inspiration from Jim’s contemporary style and Suzanne’s traditional style, blending the two seamlessly while simultaneously imbuing the home with a European charm. She sought to create simple, clean lines, avoiding trends and instead focusing on creating a look that was timeless and refined. Calcutta gold marble countertops, center-cut white oak floors and hand-painted Tabarka tiles (Suzanne's favorite) are striking examples of how Keifer brought her vision to life. Jim and Suzanne’s warm, contemporary alpine home is a feat of creative ingenuity; TreeLine’s innovative designs, Keifer’s inspired style, and Jim and Suzanne’s trust and passion for the project culminated in a gorgeous home, perfectly suited for the couple’s return to the Flatirons. 46

THE BACK POCKET SKI AREA ELDORA’S UPGRADES ARE ONLY JUST THE BEGINNING

THE BACK POCKET SKI AREA (CON TI N U ED)
IN YEARS PAST, ELDORA HASN’T EXACTLY BEEN KNOWN AS THE GO-TO PLACE FOR PRIME SKIING. According to Sam Bass, Eldora’s new marketing director,
Powdr Adventure Lifestyle Co, Eldora's new parent company, is dedicated to changing that.
BASS SAYS, “WE’RE NOT A BIG RESORT…WE ARE THE BACK POCKET SKI AREA OF BOULDER COUNTY, SO WE WANT TO LEAN INTO THE LOCAL CULTURE HERE AND GROUND OUR BRAND AROUND THE BOULDER LIFESTYLE.”
For a local skier, the idea of a corporation owning such a nearby mountain might not sound like good news. Many big companies lose the heart of a ski area, as they become too focused on making profits and creating a cohesive business model throughout all of their resorts. Bass promises that Powdr is different. John Cumming, Powdr’s CEO, went to CU in the ’80s and participated on the ski team, utilizing Eldora’s proximity to Boulder for practices. He lived in Nederland for a time, and he co-founded Mountain Hardware in 2000. He's no stranger to the Front Range, in fact, he has been a local. “Powdr’s strategy is for each resort to invest in their own excellence… They want each property to retain its local character,” Bass explains. “They want each resort to sort of survey what makes it unique and invest in that, and emphasize those things.” According to Bass, one of Powdr's corporation-wide priorities is for all of their mountains to support things like local business and charities, the communities they are a part of. Along with this, they are dedicated to focusing on sustainability and long-term investments in the resort's futures. For Eldora, some of these long-term investments have included infrastructure improvements such as the new six-person high-speed chairlift opening this season and renovations made to the main lodges. Bass says that Eldora has been listening to feedback from locals and are making changes based on what they’ve heard. Wifi at the resort will now be free (and faster), the restrooms have been redone, and the restaurants will have new recipes on the menus. One of Eldora’s biggest selling points has always been the resort’s proximity the Boulder (and the fact that you don’t have to get on I-70 to go skiing), but weekends at the resort can be crowded. If you’re skiing on the weekend and aren’t willing to make an early-morning call time, Bass says it’s better to wait for the afternoon shift. Or, better yet, come up on a weekday when the powder is fresh, and the parking lot is empty. With Powdr, Bass thinks the resort will finally make Boulder County residents proud to call themselves local Eldora skiers. “We realize that it is a lot more than a new brand campaign and saying we’re doing this. We recognize that we actually have to show that and bring it to life in meaningful ways,” Bass says.

PLAYING HOOKY AT ELDORA Weekdays are always less busy at Eldora so if your work schedule is flexible or you can work remotely, play hooky for a day. 7:00 am:
Leave Boulder by heading up Canyon Road which turns into CO-119, it's an almost straight shot up to Edlora
7:45 am:
Arrive at Eldora (One major benefit of coming up on a weekday? Less competition for parking.)
8:00 am:
Stop for a coffee at the newly renovated Timber’s Bar to get your energy levels up
9:00 am:
Get on the new high-speed lift and take a few runs up and down the mountain
12:30 pm:
Take advantage of Eldora’s newly improved (and free) wifi and send some emails to the office and grab a quick lunch at one of the lodges at the base area
a) 1:00 pm:
If you need to head back to Boulder for the afternoon, sneak in one last run before calling it a day and arrive back in Boulder forty minutes after you’ve clipped out of your bindings.
b) 1:00 pm:
If you're one of the lucky ones that get to make a day of it, hop back on the mountain and take some more laps.
3:00 pm:
Chances are that late afternoon, you'll need to stop for a break and a hot chocolate (or a beer), so take advantage of the on-the-mountain lodge, The Lookout at Corona Bowl, because everything tastes better at 10,800 feet.
5:00 pm:
When you've wrapped up for the day, head to Nederland's Kathmandu Restaurant, which serves Nepalese and Indian dishes.
7:00 pm:
If you're not quite ready to head out of the mountains (who could blame you?), check into the Goldminer Hotel, which looks exactly like it did when it was built in 1897. Plus, they've got your mornings covered with a complimentary breakfast.

Edible Beats FOOD YOU PLAY WITH

Boulder Lifestyle | December 2017
O
pening up a new restaurant in Denver’s highly competitive market is a daunting task. Opening six new restaurants, all of which have their own unique ambiance and kitchen staff with the talent to
cater to all dietary needs, sounds impossible. But New York raised Justin Cucci, restaurateur, and chef, and Colorado-local Megan Baldwin, director of operations and development, have made it happen. These two joined forces when Cucci’s flagship restaurant, Root Down, which opened its doors in 2008, had been thriving for a year. Once the business partnership began, everything else fell into place. They created Edible Beats, a concept group with a philosophy based on locally grown, organic food, in 2009. Edible Beats ensures that the restaurants within the group are environmentally beneficial to the surrounding neighborhoods and the people who live there. Edible Beats maintains 4,000 square-feet of gardens within Denver’s city limits and their buildings run on wind-power. “I always hope we have an opportunity and that we do things well enough that we can be an influence on surrounding businesses,” says Cucci. “Nothing would make me happier than to influence one business at a time.”
"Our goals are simple, just to do the right thing, to keep it real and to get better every day.” Getting better includes creative freedom in the kitchen. Cucci and Baldwin have rounded up kitchen talent that is versatile and well experienced; a staff that is in-tune with the philosophy of Edible Beats. Confidence and trust in kitchen staff have allowed for the restaurants to be accessible to all dietary restrictions at the drop of a hat. Chefs are intuitive and excited about the challenge of satisfying guests and meeting their needs. At the core of Edible Beats is inspiration from the retired buildings that house their restaurants and building décor from upcycled design. Atmospheric décor reflects this through Root Down’s reclaimed mid-century gas station. Their restaurant Linger lives in the building that was once Olinger Mortuary, in which a 1975 GMC RV sits in place of a bar, and a repurposed food truck operates as the kitchen. Ophelia’s Electric Soap Box is nestled inside an 1894-era Victorian brownstone, surviving the changing times in Denver as a brothel turned peep show and finally an Adult Emporium, until transferring ownership to the current holder, Edible Beats. Since opening Root Down in 2008, the concept group has blossomed as a supporter of Denver’s community while opening six other restaurants, the most recent being El Five, which opened its doors in April of this year. Having accomplished so much in less than a decade, one wonders where this growing empire will set its sights next. Cucci says this is the time to relish in the fruits of his and the team’s labor, “Celebrating the amazing restaurants that we have, the amazing staff that we have, and amazing guests that we have. We just want to revel in getting better at serving the guest and making better food."

GETTING DOWN TO THE BASICS
5 Denver Restaurant Concepts | 6 Restaurants • Root Down • Linger • Ophelia's Electric Soapbox • Vital Root • El Five Owned by Chef Justin Cucci 4,000 sq. foot gardens within Denver's city limits Wind-powered buildings All food restrictions welcome
Q: THE RESTAURANTS ARE SO ECLECTIC. WHICH ONE/ONES DO YOU IDENTIFY WITH MOST?
Justin Cucci | When you put together all the restaurants, Edible Beats is the truest reflection. Not of myself, but of the guest and the team. I think the process maybe reflects me somehow, but the results reflect the staff’s influence and the guest expectations. Megan Baldwin | Ophelia's. That space is such a celebration of the feminine, and the food is what I crave most of all the concepts. I also have a lot of great memories of the buildout, which lasted around three years. The building is steeped in history, and I remember first looking at the space when it was the Adult Emporium ( just a few weeks before we opened Linger), crawling into the basement with a flashlight talking about the possibilities.

The Drunken Hearts ARTICLE MEG SIMON | PHOTOGRAPHY ALEX BEAL

Boulder Lifestyle | December 2017
"YOU GOT TO BELIEVE!"
he Drunken Hearts, a Colorado-based Americana band, has been making a name for itself across the state as well as the nation over the last few years. Originally a creative outlet for lead singer and acoustic guitarist Andrew McConathy, the group has grown into an electric five-piece, writing music that is alternately feisty and sensitive, while at the same time always remaining honest and passionate. This month we had the opportunity to chat with McConathy about how the band came together, where they are headed, and, perhaps most importantly, what they are reveling in along the way. CAN YOU GIVE US A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE BAND MEMBERS?
I was born in Louisiana and moved to Colorado via Santa Fe, NM when I was in grade school. I started The Drunken Hearts up in Vail around 2010 and Cody, who is originally from Arkansas, joined in 2012. Jon, from New York, joined in 2013, and Alex, from Illinois, in 2014. We just recently brought Kory into the fold in January of 2017, who is also originally from Arkansas (Go Hogs!). It’s been an evolution from day-one, but this lineup is clicking. WHO ARE YOUR GREATEST MUSICAL INFLUENCES?
Our influences are pretty vast – everything from Led Zeppelin to Townes Van Zandt, The Band and Tom Petty to Pearl Jam, and most points in between. WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO CONVEY WITH YOUR MUSIC?
To a certain degree, our music is about conveying genuine, authentic truth; truth in the lyrics, truth in the melodies, truth in the song itself. I hope people believe in our songs and that they enhance their everyday experience on this crazy planet. As Kory often says into the mic at shows, “You got to believe!" YOUR FIRST FULL-LENGTH RECORD, THE PRIZE, COMES OUT THIS SPRING — CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THE SONGS, THE JOURNEY AND ANY CHALLENGES FACED WHILE CREATING THE ALBUM?
The band as a whole has had quite an evolution to it. What began as three friends who loved to ski and play bluegrass music has grown into this Americana Rock beast. It's been invigorating but hasn’t come without some serious challenges. Founding member and drummer Ted Welles unexpectedly passed away in 2014 while we were trying to record what would become Love & Thirst. As a result, a lot of love and loss is reflected in that record. In comparison, our upcoming album, The Prize, was mostly written while we catapulted across the country, playing shows night after night, and just living in the moment. Overall, I'd say The Prize is about the journey and the chase – living in the moment without losing true sight of one's vision. HOW DO THE DRUNKEN HEARTS CELEBRATE TOGETHER?
The opportunity to travel the country and play music for a living is something that continues to blow our minds every day and is cause for celebration. We revel in the smiles on each face when we look into the audience every night, and we certainly celebrate life– maybe a little too much sometimes, if that’s possible!
