THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

by ANDREW TRAVERS

THEATER ESTABLISHED PERFORMERS AND WRITERS from stage and screen join with emerging playwrights from around the U.S. and local high schoolers for Theater Masters’ annual “Take Ten” productions, National MFA Playwrights Festival and Aspiring Playwrights Competition.

This year’s festivities include three nights of 10-minute plays in “Take Ten” performances Feb. 1-3 at the Aspen High School Black Box Theatre. The short productions — always a highlight of winter theater in the valley — include plays by graduate students from programs at Columbia, Fordham, the University of Iowa and Yale, among other leading schools, and locals from Aspen, Basalt and Glenwood Springs high schools.

The plays are being produced this year with assistance from renowned Broadway and film actress Kathleen Chalfant and Primary Stages artistic director Andrew Leynse. They will join Theatre Masters artistic director Julia Hansen for a panel discussion on “Social Responsibility: The Role of the Storyteller in Today’s Society,” on Saturday, Jan. 31 at 5 p.m. in the Koch Building at the Aspen Institute.

The program brings professionals and students together to produce the short plays here annually, in a fastpaced evening of theater, followed by a spring production in New York.

“Take Ten” productions include casts of local actors and the return of hometown girl Naomi McDougall Jones, who a decade ago won a Theater Masters high school competition and now serves as Theater Masters associate artistic and managing director. Since high school in Aspen, Jones has gone on to see her work produced in New York, while landing film and TV roles. Last year, the film “Imagine I’m Beautiful,” which she wrote, produced and starred in, enjoyed a festival run and a special Wheeler Opera House screening.

Tickets for “Take Ten” shows are $25 and available at www. theatermasters.org. Saturday’s panel is free.

Read more about Theater Masters and this year’s “Take Ten” plays in the Jan. 30 Weekend section of The Aspen Times Jan. 30.

“Higher Ups” starring Nick Lopez and China Kwan was featured in Theater Masters’ 2008 Take Ten festival. This year’s plays run Feb. 1-3, with a panel discussion at the Aspen Institute on Saturday, Jan. 31.

CURRENTEVENTS COMEDY

Comedian Lewis Black, best known for his ranting style and “Daily Show” segments, will perform at the Wheeler Opera House on Friday, Jan. 30.

“Bloodline,” by Paula Wallace. A survey of the artist ‘s work will open at the Jewish Community Center Gallery on Feb. 3.

ART FED UP WITH OUR LAWMAKERS in Washington? Think our society is continuing its long, slow, circle down the toilet bowl?

Then you’ve got a friend in Lewis Black.

The comedian, best known for his “Back in Black” rants on “The Daily Show,” brings his brilliant social commentary to the Wheeler Opera House for a Jan. 30 show.

Tickets are $65 and available at the Wheeler box office and www.aspenshowtix.com Bring questions if you have them. On his current tour, Black has been taking audience questions and live-streaming his answers.

AMONG THE NEWEST additions to the local art scene, the Aspen Jewish Community Center Gallery hosts its second opening on Tuesday, Feb. 3 with a free reception from 6-8 p.m.

The show will exhibit a survey of work by Nebraska artist Paula Wallace, whose paintings use a lush saturation of color for scenes ranging from stark and powerful portraits to rich landscapes and whimsical scenes of mice and other creatures.

Wallace’s show — titled “What Was I Thinking?” —will run through April 12.

THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

with JOHN COLSON

a letter to

Mary Hayes

( S E P T. 19 2 8-J A N. 2 015 ) DEAR MARY: It’s been a while since we got together for a chat, and now we can’t because you’re gone, on a trip to places where I can’t follow.

I’ve been thinking a lot about you lately, and about how long we’ve been friends, and about how you really are the one person who, besides myself and my wife, Anne, could ever claim responsibility for keeping me here in the Roaring Fork Valley for all these years.

I’ve been thinking about the time when we first met, in 1980, when the late Bil Dunaway, at your urging, hired me away from my first job in the valley, the old Glenwood Post daily newspaper in Glenwood Springs, to be the editor and manager of The Rifle Telegram weekly.

I’d grown tired of the corporate ownership of the Post (Stauffer Communications of Kansas) and was thinking of quitting and moving on.

But I was eager to try my hand at being editor, so I jumped.

Being owned by Dunaway and Mountain States Communications, the Telegram was produced and printed up at The Aspen Times, his flagship paper where you were the managing editor. And it was when I drove up to Aspen every Tuesday in the morning dark, to oversee production, that we first became friends.

I later was hired as editor at the Valley Journal, another Dunawayowned publication and again with your backing, a job that kept me around after the oil shale boom went bust and I was thinking about taking a friend’s advice and heading to Los Angeles to try my hand at script writing for Hollywood.

After a couple of years at the VJ, I was again thinking about moving on

HIT&RUN

when I encountered you at the Hot Springs Pool in Glenwood Springs, and you asked me if I’d like to come and work at The Aspen Times.

That was 1985, and my life took on a whole new color and cast that year as a result of that one question.

Going to work for the Times, with you at the helm, wasn’t really what could be called WORK. No, it felt like being adopted by a band of slightly bent media maniacs living in the midst of an opulent, resortified fever of a type that I had never seen before coming to Colorado.

Mary, I don’t know how many times I said this in those years, and since, but you were the Den Mother, a wise and patient vixen watching

adventurous and boisterous, and the times were such that there was really nothing we wouldn’t try for a laugh or a good high.

Even as you reined in our madder impulses, you and Dunaway allowed us the freedom to cover Aspen in ways it probably had never seen before, and likely will never see again.

And you, with the Around Aspen column cataloging and categorizing the high society that surrounded us, and the innumerable features about the people who made Aspen tick, you were not only our chief wrangler, you also were right there in the thick of the work.

Off and on we worked side-by-side at the Times, for more than 20 of my 36 years in the valley, and I never

saw you crack. Sometimes you’d get a little frustrated at the raw insanity that occasionally took over the place, and you’d crack the whip if you had to, but all in all you took everything in stride and kept it moving toward the weekly (and then daily) goal of telling a town’s stories to itself and to the world.

Above all that, of course, you were a friend, someone to go to with questions or problems, host of a really great wedding party when Anne and I finally tied the knot, cheerleader for The Aspen Times ski team when we’d compete at Colorado Press Association events; this list goes on and on.

I’ll miss you, Mary, and I hope that whatever you encounter next will be in keeping with your own innate goodness and wonderfully open heart. jbcolson51@gmail.com

over our little den of goofy pups.

And watch over us you did, very carefully, because there was no telling what we might get into if left entirely to our own devices.

Every week at our Friday staff breakfast, following the rigors of Thursday’s production and printing adventures, you would sit us down and make us think about the coming week’s stories, when all we wanted to do was get outside and go skiing or mountain biking, depending on the season.

You kept our keels straight, or as straight as you could, forcing us to come up with a list of stories to fill the next massive edition.

Looking back, I’m not sure how you did it, keeping a lid on all those egos. We boys were all testosterone and edgy physicality, the girls were a little more restrained but equally

LEGENDS & LEGACIES

FROM the VAULT

by TIM WILLOUGHBY

A last hurrah: This ad from the 1960s promotes a leather boot.

THE POWER OF PLASTIC You might remember the 1967 movie “The Graduate,” in which

Mr. McGuire tells a disinterested Benjamin, “I just want to say one word to you. Just one word. Plastics.” Had he been talking about the future of the ski industry, the word would have been prophetic. Plastic or less offensive fiberglass changed ski equipment and skiing right around the time of that movie.

The most revolutionary change came to ski boots. For decades ski boots rose barely above the ankle and were made of leather. Over several decades designs crept up the shin, added a second layer of leather, and replaced the outer layer lacing with buckles, all to make them stiffer. Racers pushed innovation by demanding ever stiffer and taller boots. During the break-in period, new leather boots inflicted pain, especially where the buckles dug in.

But for racers, boots that had been broken in meant they had lost a degree of precious stiffness.

Boot makers began experimenting with plastic in the early 1960s for racers. Production models for the general public entered the market in 1967 and 1968. Henke and Nordica created three-piece designs that replaced leather with plastic. Daleboot and Rosemount fashioned more rigid shells with hinged entryways. A little later on the market, Hanson created the first rear-entry boot.

10

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

F

Then the manufacturers all had to address the problem of what rigid plastic shells meant to the skin and bones enclosed by them. Bob Lange came up with Flo-fit, a boot liner that provided a soft space between

Rosemount’s, one of the earliest to find widespread acceptance. Their unique design included a crazy side entry. An elaborate system of clips, leather and buckles locked two parts of the hinged boot shell together.

THE MOST REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE CAME TO SKI BOOTS. FOR DECADES SKI BOOTS ROSE BARELY ABOVE THE ANKLE AND WERE MADE OF LEATHER. OVER SEVERAL DECADES DESIGNS CREPT UP THE SHIN, ADDED A SECOND LAYER OF LEATHER, AND REPLACED THE OUTER LAYER LACING WITH BUCKLES, ALL TO MAKE THEM STIFFER. RACERS PUSHED INNOVATION BY DEMANDING EVER STIFFER AND TALLER BOOTS. plastic and foot. The material broke down with use in the beginning, but over time Lange perfected the material. Hanson and others introduced a method of injecting material into a boot and molding it to fit individual feet.

My first plastic boots were

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

Compared to later plastic boots they were not tall, but they were comparable in height to leather boots of the time.

My boots also had unusual inner padding — pouches of material like sacks of fine grain sand — that would move around to fit my feet. If

I had a sore spot, I could open the boot and adjust the positioning of the material with my finger.

Prior to plastic boots, and shorter fiberglass and metal skis, you rode your wood skis and they had a life of their own. You could not initiate a change in direction by simply turning your ankles.

And you could not carve a turn easily because bending forward did not transfer enough pressure to the edges at the tips of the skis.

Turning involved more significant weight transfer. Skiers first practiced snowplow, then stem-Christie, and then parallel skiing to make their weight transfer more pronounced as speed increased. Plastic boots gave skiers much more edge control for far less work.

For skiers and non-skiers alike, leather ski boots resembled the work boots that people wore every day on the streets of Aspen. But to a non-skier, plastic ski boots looked like devices designed to inflict pain and prevent the wearer from walking and running. In some respects, they were.

Tim Willoughby’s family story parallels Aspen’s. He began sharing folklore while teaching for Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Mountain College. Now a tourist in his native town, he views it with historical perspective. Reach him at redmtn2@comcast.net.

“JOINING THE STAFF of the Aspen Times this week is Miss Mary Jean Eshbaugh [Hayes], daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.P. Eshbaugh of Geneseo, New York,” announced the Aspen Daily Times on Oct. 2, 1952. “Mary graduated in 1950 from the Syracuse University School of Journalism, Syracuse, N.Y., and has been employed on the following weekly newspapers: ‘The Livingston Republican’ in Geneseo, N.Y., as news editor, ‘The Aurora Advocate’ in Aurora, Colorado, as society editor, and ‘The Englewood Press’ in Englewood, Colorado, as City Hall and general news reporter. She is making her home in Aspen at 105 E. Hallam with the Misses Pat Lumsden, Dorothy Helmkamp and Loretta Coffman. Miss Eshbaugh takes the place of Mrs. Virginia Gallagher who has been writing for The Times for the past year but resigned to move to San Jose, Calif., with her husband and children, Paula and Jane. Since the resignation of Mrs. Gallagher in mid-August, Mrs. Elizabeth Berg Gaylord consented to write again for The Times until Miss Eshbaugh could arrange to get to Aspen from her home in New York.”

GEAR of the WEEK

by STEPHEN REGENOLD

BIKE ON: MUSICIAN TOURS ON TWO WHEELS

IT TOOK A KIT OF GEAR and a sense of adventure. But this past fall musician Ben Weaver completely changed the way he organized a record tour.

He left his band’s van at home. A bike loaded with bags and a rack, including a custom setup sewn to fit a banjo, served as transport on a 1,400-mile trip from Minneapolis to New Orleans.

With the shift in transportation came a new approach on where to play — schools, farms, a bike shop and other untraditional venues were scheduled instead of bars.

“I realized recently that playing a dive bar show in Cleveland for drunk people wasn’t the best use of anyone’s time,” he said.

The bike tour was planned to launch Weaver’s eighth album, “I Would Rather Be A Buffalo”

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

(Hymie’s Records). Over the past two years he’d traveled by bike to play gigs, including on short tours.

But at 25 days long, the trip to New Orleans was a new level.

He followed the Mississippi River. His audience skewed younger and vastly more sober than any before, including a Catholic Worker Farm and a book shop. He played a gig at Aldo Leopold Middle School in Iowa.

The tour changed Weaver on a few fronts. The perpetual motion and adventure of a bike trip was a needed break from the grind of life. The energy he got from new audiences, Weaver said, was reaffirming of his craft.

He had a few epiphanies on gear as well. “Just bring less stuff,” he said. “Bike touring requires very little — some food, your bike

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

tools, raingear and the clothes on your back.”

To that extent, he packed only two sets of clothing the whole trip, including a jersey and bike shorts from the brand Search And State.

He washed the clothes each night in a sink at a motel or a farmhouse where they’d arranged to stay.

Banjo Brothers, a Minneapolis company, sponsored Weaver by outfitting his bike. The company made a “Franken-bag” by converting one of its panniers into a waterproof banjo hauler with a custom cover.

A guitar graced the other side of his bike rack, letting Weaver pick an instrument of choice for solo shows.

A dry bag stuffed with clothing and small items was on top.

His bike, a Vaya model from Salsa Cycles, had the requisite attachment points for fenders and racks. It’s a

road bike that can handle gravel and pavement, taking tires up to 42mm wide and made with a stable frame geometry for control during long days in the saddle.

He brought a kit of tools for repairs. His foul-weather gear came from O2 Rainwear, a company that donated waterproof-breathable jacket and pants that together weigh just a few ounces.

Fancy equipment aside, I asked Weaver about his most important gear for the grind of the road: “Bungee cords, hands down,” he said. “Carrying a banjo and a guitar on a bike is not easy, but if you cinch it all tight enough on the rack they will stay in place.”

Stephen Regenold writes about outdoors gear at www.gearjunkie.com.

WINEINK

KYM TOLLEY:

AN AUSSIE ICON VISITS ASPEN THINK WINE DYNASTIES, and Tuscany and Bordeaux spring to mind rather than the nascent wine regions of California, Argentina or Australia. But as time marches on, multigeneration wine families are starting to make a mark in the New World as well. The Mondavis of Napa and the Catenas of Mendoza are examples of family names continuing their KELLY J. HAYES predecessors work into the 21st century.

In Australia, a country whose wine industry is still in its relative infancy compared to the centuries old trades in Europe, there is one name, well actually two, that endure from the earliest days of the Aussie winemaking tradition. And Kym Tolley, the founder/proprietor of the Australian wine house Penley Estate in Coonawarra, South Australia, is a direct descendant of both.

Kym’s great-great-great-great grandfather (that is four “greats”) was Dr. Christopher Rawson Penfold, the founder of what is undeniably Australia’s most famed winery, Penfolds. And his mother is a Tolley, another important producer of wines and port in the early history of the antipodean wine industry. That is as close as one gets to Australian winemaking royalty.

Recently, as I sat with Kym in Victoria’s, the Aussie authentic bakery, café and wine bar here in Aspen, I realized I was in the presence of a man whose ancestry embodies the entire history of Australian wine. Cut Kym and from his veins, red wine will flow.

It was a cool, cloudy January day as I sat talking with the affable Aussie, but the sun on his hat (the logo for his winery) brought warmth to our tasting and conversation.

Kym’s life in wine began at birth and he has had direct involvement in some 42 vintages, more if you consider his years as a teen in the

14

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

F

Barossa Valley working harvests.

He began working at Penfolds in the early 1970s, when the company was still in his family, under the tutelage of Max Schubert, the man who gave birth to Grange, a wine that may be the greatest export of any kind ever produced in Australia. A scholarly education at Roseworthy College, the UC Davis of Australia, brought his bona fides in order and, as a young man in his 30s, he decided to start his own tradition.

While Shiraz was the grape of his youth — and the Barossa — Kym’s passion was Cabernet Sauvignon.

He knew of a place in South Australia called Coonawarra that had a climate cool enough, soils magnificent enough, and sun that shined brightly enough, to produce world-class Cabernet. So in 1988 he left the comparative bright lights of the Barossa for the railroad stop that was the wine region of Coonawarra. A place that could be called the “Bordeaux of the Southern Wild.”

For nearly three decades now, he has produced great wines under the Penley Estate label.

Yes, the name is a combination of those of his forbearers and it has since become synonymous with outstanding Aussie Cabernet, though he also produces Shiraz, a Chardonnay and even a Pinot Noir.

As we talked over a glass of the 2012 Penley Estate Phoenix Cabernet, the $20 wine that is best known by those stateside with an affinity for his wines, Kym told me about how the wine world is changing. “It used to be that people who bought fine wines would do so by the case and hold them for many years,” he explained.

“A vintage would be good so they would ring up their dealer, place an order and send it to the cellar. Today there is much more immediacy. More than 90 percent of all wine is consumed within 48 hours of when it’s purchased.”

Kym has reacted to this evolution by focusing on the

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

texture and the structure of his wines. That is the tannins and the acidity, both of which can be a product of winemaking and barrel-aging acumen. “We want this wine to age properly, but we also want the tannins to be a bit softer, we want our Cabernet to be approachable when it is young. So the tannins may be a little softer, but still there.” As I drank the young 2012, bottled under screw cap, I could clearly see a wine that had the potential to improve with time but could still be quaffable that evening with, say, a little Colorado lamb.

While Kym introduced America to his wines back in 1994, I was fascinated to hear that in recent years China has become Penley’s

second largest market. Kym finds his way there twice a year. “It is amazing to see the thirst for wines and the hunger for wine knowledge in China,” he said with a shake of his sun-marked cap. “They want to know everything about the wine, how it’s made, where it comes from…it’s just so exciting to see them learn and emerge.”

It is interesting to ponder a “New World” dynasty bringing wines to the old, old, old, old (that’s four “olds”) world.

THE TERRA ROSSA OF COONAWARRA It is obligatory that any story about Coonawarra mention the extraordinary soil profile of the region that makes it so perfect for the production of Cabernet Sauvignon. The “Terra Rossa,” or red earth, is a strip of land that runs through the heart of the Coonawarra. It features dense red clays that sit atop an ancient limestone base allowing for a precise combination of drainage and support for the vines. On all the earth, few places can rival it.

FOOD MATTERS FOOD MATTERS

SO DOPE

HAUTE CUISINE, COOL WINE, KIND BUD: THE ULTIMATE PAIRING DINNER WHAT A BLUR. I’m still seeing spots, as if I’d stared straight into the glaring X-Games spotlights two seconds too long, but a few choice moments from the weekend burn in my brain. In particular, during a five-course dinner Thursday evening: A bubbly babe in black swans to our table, delivering the first amuse-bouche—two fat cannabis nuggets each.

The invitationAMANDA RAE only wine, weed, and haute cuisine pairing unfolds in the Native Roots Tree House, the stoner den pop-up in the privately owned Crystal Palace.

Aspen branches decorate the room beneath the venue’s massive sparkling chandelier; white tablecloths glow amid multicolored mood lighting; Thievery Corporation drummer Congo Sanchez spins beats from the balcony above. At tables lining the dance floor, more than 50 guests pack Durban Poison — a sweet-spicy, liquorice strain of 100 percent sativa known to produce a racing, cerebral, creative high — into individual, pristine glass pipes. Grinning, we clink them together in one big celebratory toast to a new era.

“There’s no better place than Aspen to do this, right?” So declares our host Philip Wolf, owner of Cultivating Spirits, which orchestrates various cannabisinfused experiences across the Front Range. Held in partnership with Munch & Co. event planning; Native Roots, the Denver-based dispensary that recently unveiled a recreational bud boutique in the old La Palapa space — the sixth such shop downtown; and The Infinite Monkey Theorem urban winery, this meal is about more that just getting high and gorging on gourmet food. Instead, it’s a curated sensory fusion meant to reintroduce guests — habitual users, one-and-done wonders, and tentative newbies alike — to marijuana’s layered nuances, paving a path through our brave new world of legal cannabis consumption.

“You really wanna note the flavor profiles on the inhalation,” Wolf instructs, as if a sommelier discussing wine. “How does it feel on your throat? On the exhalation,

16

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

F

notice the differences from your inhalation. Do a cupping motion: smack your tongue to the top of your mouth.”

Lighters snap around the room, punctuating Sanchez’s liquid grooves. Murmurs grow to a low, excited roar. I take a sip of wine — a mineral, mouth-wateringly crisp 2014 sauvignon blanc — peer through swirling tufts of smoke, and giggle. Outside, Hyman Street passersby stop to peer through the Palace’s windows and ogle this social experiment unfolding behind the glass. We’re hot-boxing the historic

fridge, this is a carefully calibrated series of epicurean combinations.

To say that this first sequence — puff, sip, bite — creates one whopper of a mouthgasm would be cliché.

But what else to say? The new dinner party is dope.

The meal unfolds indulgently, with servers stopping by between courses to pour new wine and deposit fresh bud along with takeaway canisters.

(As no tickets or merchandise is sold, the private event fully complies with Colorado state law.)

“They named it Headband for Alice in Wonderland,” announces

GREEN LIGHT Will cannabis-pairing dinner parties become the norm? Silverthorne-based Cultivating Spirits, which teamed up with new-to-Aspen dispensary Native Roots and Denver’s The Infinite Monkey Theorem urban winery last weekend at a Crystal Palace pop-up event, are banking on it.

Crystal Palace but it feels classy and intellectual, if shrouded in vague disbelief. Is this the new normal?

Senses heightened, we cut into our first course, a vibrant spunbeet salad topped with pistachiocrusted tuna tataki with Japanese togarashi spice and wasabi-tofu foam. “Durban Poison has a minty hit to it, so shiso leaf will really bring that out,” says chef Cortland Collins, who teamed up with Jessica Catalano, author of “The Ganja Kitchen Revolution” cookbook, to create pairings. The Infinite Monkey Theorem founder Ben Parsons hand-selected wines. Unlike taking a few bong rips before foraging the

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

Catalano before our second course palate opener. “It is very spicy with a tang and undertones of sweetness.

It’s good for pain in your body and relaxing. Puff, puff, enjoy — and you don’t have to pass.”

Headband is more astringent than Durban Poison, with a noticeably harsher punch to the throat. Yet it makes a smooth intro to Wagyu beef tartare with Asian pear and pickled fennel. As my guest, who had the good fortune of celebrating her birthday, commented later: “Sometimes if I get stoned in public I can get really paranoid. That didn’t happen,” she recalled. “Still, you’re gonna get me high and feed me a

raw hamburger?”

I see her point. It’s a bold move by Collins, perhaps inspired by his stint as chef of TAG Raw Bar, but from what I can tell, nobody freaks out.

“We’re trying to educate, to teach people how to dose,” says Cultivating Spirits marketing manager Kristina Sherwood, while passing out pamphlets detailing cannabis cooking classes and grow tours in Silverthorne and custom parties throughout Colorado.

Our third course turns mellow: Grand Daddy Purps, indica scented of berries and cream; duck with blackberry red wine reduction and roasted sweet potato; 2013 Malbec.

“This is good for pain relief, migraines, and, if you need to relax after skiing the slopes all day, it’ll knock you out,” Catalano announces of the cannabis. Our table does a six-bowl cheers — again, can’t say I’ve done that before — spark, and inhale. Smoke plays with sweet fruit. “It’s like Captain Crunch Berries,” someone quips.

The next pairing — tender confit baby octopus with white chocolateparsnip purée and grapefruit gastrique, plus 2013 Syrah — is prefaced by 303 Kush, an indicadominant hybrid with piney, musky aroma and citrusy, lush taste. We lull to quieter conversation, get goofy, and drop deep thoughts. “You know when you’re at a restaurant and you want to tell the waiter you’re stoned?” Yes. Here it’s already out in the open, literally.

Two hours pass in a swirl of flavors, fragrances, and chatter that oscillates from giddy to pensive as we swap sativa for indica and back again. Finally, a triple-whammy dessert: Platinum Covered Girl Scout Cookies — a heady hybrid true to its name — alongside dark chocolate ganache torte with raspberry coulis and jammy Petite Sirah. And then it’s over: a meal for the books.

The next morning over coffee, my friend and I ponder our dreamlike evening. “Uh, did that really happen last night?” she says, her eyes widening. “I feel like we went to Wonderland.”

Yes, Amanda Rae was stoned while researching this column. amandaraewashere@gmail.com

Coconut Rehydrate from Carbondale-based True Nature Kitchen. Marketed as a “living” rehydration beverage, this suprisingly tasty drink is made with raw organic coconut meat, not coconut water; its creators say that by using the meat instead of just the water, “the benefits are multiplied.” I’ll buy that, especially after New Year’s Eve, a trip to the Front Range, X Games, a friend’s 50th birthday bash, etc. But I can’t guarantee I won’t be adding a splash of rum to my Coconut Rehydrate now and again.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

In Aspen, the crowds come in — and leave just as quickly — on peak weekends.

SETTING UP AND TAKING DOWN

TOURISTS HEAD OUT AFTER AN EVENTFUL X GAMES WEEKEND ONCE AGAIN, the town has deflated. After a weekend of indulgences ranging from electronic dance music sets to edible and/or ethanol binges, X Games weekend, and all of the riff-raff it brings, have left the premises.

I heard someone say early last week, while hoards of athletes and their followers entered town, that BARBARA Aspen is like a pop-up PLATTS tent. We inflate when “duty” (aka ESPN, International Ski Federation, Food & Wine Magazine, Wanderlust, etc.) calls and we take down the facade when “duty” leaves, saying our goodbyes to the various crowds just as quickly as we said our hellos.

This is the nature of any resort town. Sometimes the community

is busy and other times it’s incredibly quiet. But Aspen’s name attracts more than fanatic skiers and snowboarders.

Snow conditions were less than impressive last weekend and it was still the biggest attended X Games recorded yet, with more than 115,000 people showing up to the base of Buttermilk. And probably more than that in town, because us seasoned X Games goers know the view is better from TV. Then, the party heads out. Each time they leave, us locals remain, tallying up the number of arrests from the weekend, the hotel rooms filled and the profits made by local businesses. We remain in Aspen, preparing for the next big weekend, but also enjoying a calm that can only come after a spurt filled with intense amounts of happenings.

Our lives are far from mundane

in this town. In fact, they are intensely sporadic. Often people blame the drastic change in seasons on our hectic lifestyles, but it’s much more than that.

Each weekend during the season, a different crowd and a different celebration rolls in. One minute we’re watching Walter Isaacson interview Hilary Clinton about her autobiography and the next, we are baring witness to a young girl legitimately arguing that Buttermilk should be renamed “Breast Milk” (I was probably only one of 20 people on a bus to hear this argument…but I still had to mention it). She blamed the drugs for her rampant creativity. (And also offered her seat to a random guy followed by, “Sit here, I’ll just sit on your face.”)

Anyway…

Although we are well-versed on complaining about these crowds

PHOTOS COURTESY STEVE MUNDINGER, LAUREN GLENDENNING, CHRISTIAN PONDELLA /ESPN IMAGES, AND LEIGH VOGEL

— the way my friends were talking over X Games weekend you would’ve thought a new species had arrived on Earth and quickly made it’s way to Aspen — it’s also a source of pride for us. We are on the inside looking out and we highly regard that position. After all, they’re just here for a weekend vacation. This paradise is our dayto-day life.

Despite the bro bras, the crowds and the hangovers that most of us will probably be nursing for the next couple of weeks, we are fortunate to be here and to have so many others that want to be here as well…even if they are silly tourists.

A new are expected to bring thousands of march, led by Martin Luther King Jr., visitors to this historic Alabama city began March 21, 1965, and arrived this year. in Montgomery on March 25, with Visitors can still walk across the crowd swelling to 25,000 by the the bridge where voting rights time they reached the Capitol.

are all within walking distance of the bridge. They include the First Baptist Church, where many protests were organized, and Brown Chapel A.M.E. Church, where marchers congregated before going to the bridge and where they sought safety after being beaten.

Near the bridge, a free tour of an interpretative center built by the National Park Service offers photographs of the events and emotional video interviews with people who were on both sides of the issues.

Nearby is the Ancient Africa, Enslavement and Civil War Museum, where visitors can see how slaves were captured, sold and exploited, including a depiction of what it was like to be on a slave ship bound for America.

“You have to know about slavery to know why we didn’t have the right to vote,” said Faya Rose Toure, one of the museum’s founders.

Then tourists can retrace history by walking across the Edmund Pettus Bridge to a park and the National Voting Rights Museum on the opposite side. Museum artifacts include surveillance photos taken by state police. One feature that stands out is the white plaster footprints of the largely unknown participants in the march and their personal stories about being part of history, from facing danger to treating blistered feet.

“Everybody has seen pictures of Dr. King leading the march.

Those people behind him are what we are focusing on,” historian Sam Walker said.

State Sen. Hank Sanders, Selma’s first black senator since Reconstruction and a founder of the National Voting Rights Museum, said Selma’s location an hour’s drive

west of Interstate 65, a major route to Gulf Coast beaches, will help attract more visitors to the museum this spring and summer.

After touring Selma, visitors can drive the march route along U.S. 80 to the halfway point in White Hall, where the Park Service has a much larger interpretative center about the events. Then they can complete the 50-mile trip to Montgomery.

There visitors can tour the Capitol, where King made the emotional speech that ends “Selma,” and see a monument and museum dedicated to civil rights martyrs. The Civil Rights Memorial includes three victims featured in the movie: Jimmie Lee Jackson, who was shot by a state trooper; James Reeb, who was beaten by white segregationists; and Viola Liuzzo, who was shot by Klansmen while taking marchers back to Selma.

Other sites include the Greyhound bus station where Freedom Riders seeking to integrate interstate transportation were beaten by a white mob in 1961, a museum commemorating Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boycott that King led in 1955, and the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church, where King served as pastor before moving to Atlanta to lead the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.

Sentell, the state tourism director, suggests at least a day in each city.

Visitors can also drive 90 miles to Birmingham to see the church bombing site featured in the opening of “Selma” and that city’s Civil Rights Museum.

Alabama’s governor, Robert Bentley, said the movie and the 50th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act are opportunities to relive history and see how Alabama has changed.

“Alabama is a different place than it was 50 years ago. We need to always remember our history, but we can’t live in the past,” he said.

INTHEMEMORIAM: END OF AN ASPEN ERA compiled by JEANNE MCGOVERN

CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: Always the photographer, and sometimes the photographed, Mary Hayes at Explore Booksellers, circa 1980; with husband Jim Hayes outside their Bleeker Street home; with daughter Jess Bates, circa 2000; in her Aspen Times office in 2004; in her home garden; at a recent Aspen Writers’ Foundation event.

it is not often that words fail me. But today, they do. Not because there are none to say about Mary Eshbaugh Hayes. Rather, there are too many.

As you’ll read in the following pages — and see clearly in the smile on Mary’s face throughout the years — Aspen lost a piece of its soul with her death Jan. 22 at the age of 86.

So, in thinking about how to introduce this tribute, I recalled — with bittersweet memory — 14 simple words that Mary shared with me after a dear friend and colleague died

unexpectedly a year ago this week: “Death is a part of life, which is why every day is worth celebrating.”

I was crying. Mary was, well, Mary — sad, yet stoic; wise, yet worried (for me, I believe); sweet, yet strong. She had tears in her eyes, yet joy in her soft voice as we shared stories of a life well-lived.

In those words, I find comfort.

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

Mary Eshbaugh Hayes was the epitome of a live well-lived; I hope the lessons she taught me throughout our friendship will inspire me to follow in her footsteps.

Even greater, though, is the legacy she leaves for the Aspen community.

She perfected the journalistic art of capturing the soul of this town through her stories of its people and events — documenting decades of history through her passion and realization of how special and unique our community is. She showed us that people matter most, friendships are worth ore than money, fun can be found anywhere, and every day is

worth embracing. For this, we are all grateful. Thank you, Mary...may you rest in peace. — JM MARY AND I have a great deal in common and we loved sharing our commonalities. We both grew up in western New York. We both went to Syracuse. We both are passionate about community and understand the value of history. Mary committed her adult life to recording the progress of modern Aspen with her camera, documenting events for decades. I think she really wanted to write more than she wanted to photograph and we spent many hours talking about recording the

P H OTO S C O U RT E S Y O F A S P E N H I S TO R I C A L S O C I E T Y; B Y DA N I E L BAY E R ; A N D A S P E N T I M E S F I L E

stories of our youth — but never putting pen to paper. A little over a decade ago, we both took a memoir course at AWF’s Summer Words. It served to be the foundation for us to chide each other about “getting it done” and to bemoan the busy life that prevented dedication to the project. After Jim died, Mary vowed to get it done and the last time I saw her in person this fall she was giddy about having started. I wonder how far she got?

Clearly one of her greatest gifts to the community will be the archiving of her photos at Aspen Historical Society.

All 65,000 of them! They chronicle more than five decades at an important community level that will provide a profound insight into Aspen’s lifestyle as the town has grown from a small farm community into an illustrious resort. Every picture is dated and the subjects are identified. That fact alone makes the gift priceless. She was very focused on making this gift and concerned — wanting to help AHS get the archival improvements that would support the gift. When Mary began organizing these pictures (perhaps a decade ago), many of us started receiving random envelopes addressed by her unmistakable hand. I would open the surprise missive to discover a photo of me from 1969 or 1978! Such whimsical thoughtful fun.

In December I wrote a cheerful note to Mary from my new home in Mexico. I heard she was not well and I wanted to check in. I made an offhand comment to her about feeling discarded, forgotten so quickly, when I returned to Aspen this past summer after six months away. She replied with classic Mary practicality, “start writing letters to the editor, Georgia, so you are not out of sight, out of mind!” I told her I was leaving that task to my husband and would elect for oblivion instead.

– Georgia Hanson, friend and former director of the Aspen Historical Society MARY ESHBAUGH HAYES was one of the most interesting women I have ever known. Although, seeing her little form walk around town, many times, pulling her small cart that she used for delivering books to various clients, and always stopping along the way to say her “hellos”, was a gift to me.

One would never realize that she was and had been one of the most powerful people in our town for the past 60 years. Mary, through her words, stories, and photographs did more to shape the story of Aspen, than almost any one of the past century.

Mary and I spent many afternoons in the lobby of my small hotel, just visiting.

We would call these afternoons, “catchup time.”

She was like a Vidalia onion.....sweet to the core, and full of oh so many layers that would be pealed back and discovered through the years of our friendship.

Her mind was sharp and fresh and always current.... always eager to go on to the next thing. Mary and I had been

connected for over 40 years. How lucky I am to have known her well, and been counted among her close friends.

Mary had a calmness of being about her, that I have rarely seen in people that were not spiritual healers. This calmness followed her around like a little cloud above her head.

She was born into a loving family on a lake in upstate New York. Her father was a highly respected engineer, and she admired him greatly. Learning and study were her passions, and in her quiet but deliberate way, when she was old enough after college, she made her way West.

The rest is history.

Mary married Jim, had 5 children, and worked her way up in the Aspen Times until she became it’s editor for many years.

Always kind, always genuine, but always truthful without being judgmental.

A friend said to me that coming back to Aspen will be like coming back and missing a mountain.

Mary was a mountain....was of Aspen tallest.

She won’t be replaced.

– Terry Butler, longtime friend

MARY HAD A KNACK for knowing when to work hard and when to have fun.

Back in the days before we revived a daily newspaper at The Aspen Times, the weekly would grow to an ungodly size around Christmas and New Year’s Day. Mary and her loyal band of reporters would dust off any and every story idea they had stashed away and write ‘em up for the monster editions.

Mary had to coordinate the massive jumble. It was always chaotic but always turned out well.

I think some of her zest for working at The Aspen Times for decades faded soon after we started the daily in November 1988. Over the next three years, the weekly’s star faded as the daily grew in prominence. The experience of working at the paper changed. We were once a rag-tag cast of characters that worked progressively harder as the weekly deadline drew near. That was replaced by a daily grind to churn out copy to fill the blank pages every day. The characters changed. The pressure grew. The feel was altered. The newspaper, like just about everything else in Aspen, became big business.

P H OTO S C O U RT E S Y A S P E N H I S TO R I C A L S O C I E T Y; A S P E N H I S TO R I C A L S O C I E T Y / M A RY E S H BA U G H H AY E S C O L L E C T I O N ( TO P )

I’m not sure it was what Mary wanted anymore, so she stepped away from the daily rigors and concentrated on her column and books.

Even with a less cohesive staff, we still had lots of fun. I’ll always remember Mary dancing at an outrageous office Christmas party at the Flying Dog Brew Pub with reporter Cameron Burns, who was dressed as a gorilla and maneuvering into inappropriate poses with “partners.”

Mary’s influence extended beyond the Aspen Times to the Aspen Daily News. She maintained she was responsible for the competing newspaper’s classic tag line, “If you don’t want it printed, don’t let it happen.” Mary claimed she uttered the line to Daily News co-founder Dave Danforth when they discussing how easy it is for a reporter to make enemies. He liked it so well he inscribed it on his paper’s flag, she said. It’s another enduring legacy from a woman who created many.

– Scott Condon, Aspen Times reporter ONE OF MY FAVORITE things about Mary was her pencil. Despite writing A S P E N T I M E S . C O M / W E E K LY

and doing what she did for so SO long she was still very much aware that we are capable of errors AND that spelling someone’s name wrong is a terrible insult…so she used a pencil, just in case she made a mistake. I think there is something for us all to learn from that.

– Louise Walker, Aspen Times ad rep.

‘SHEEP ON BLEEKER ST’ “THE STORY OF ASPEN” written by Mary Eshbaugh Hayes with photos by Chris Cassatt was one of the first books I bought when I settled into town nearly 17 years ago. Aspen’s lively history had my attention from day one, it felt here, then and now. And among all the wonderful black and white photos n the book, a few really stood out to me and one in particular was by Mary Hayes. “Sheep on Bleeker St” was a slice of Aspen Life in the mid 60s that showed Mary’s children Clayton Hayes with his arm around his little sister Jess bates as a heard of sheep parade down Bleeker Street across from the Hayes home.

So when Mary contacted me about a year ago to make a set of prints in my darkroom from the original negative, I was truly honored and all in. The negative was in OK shape, had some marks and even a tear from a much earlier darkroom mishap but entirely printable as it was larger than the usual 35mm types having coming from her old Rolleiflex twin lens (think Vivian Maier).

Figuring the tear made handling the negative a reasonably risky proposition, I took my time cleaning the negative and then made a good high resolution scan of it before taking the it into the darkroom. After taking my time in getting the cropping right and making some tests to match it to her other prints, I made a full 16x20. I am no stranger to the beautiful occurrence of watching an image come up in the developing tray, but this one….this was truly special. Under a the warm glow of the modern LED safelights in my tiny darkroom, the image of Jess, Clayton and the sheep gradually appeared through the shimmering liquid like the opening of a time capsule, It looked new and old at the same time. I had seen the image plenty of times, but in seeing it come to life right before my eyes, I felt a kinship as I re-lived what it must have been like when Mary saw it in her darkroom for the first time.

Mary was one of the most inspirational people in Aspen for me personally. Always gracious and at ease, humble and talented.

Her connection to all things Aspen amazed me and it was truly a privilege to have known her and worked with her.

The photos above are prints on the drying screen in my darkroom.

I WILL NEVER FORGET the first time I went to Mary’s house many years ago, I walked in the front door and directly across the room against the far wall was a small chest of drawers and low and behold in the bottom drawer was one of her babies - sleeping. She said there was no other place to put her and she could keep an eye on her there.

Mary and Jim probably did not have the space or the money for anything else so I assumed that all the other children were brought up there also !

Mary also told wonderful stories of how so many of the women in town were jealous of Mary for “landing” Jim and she even told us that one of her friends tried to climb in a window in the house attempting to get to Jim to try to lure him away from Mary….. and visions of sugarplums danced in their heads.

– Dottie Wolcott, Aspen Times “den mother” IT SEEMED THAT not a lot fazed Mary, and that was evident one summer evening on her routine walk from her house on Bleeker to Carl’s.

I was in the alley behind the Times watching two really big bears loitering near the sidewalk when Mary came strolling by. “Mary, watch out!” I yelled. She just looked at the bruins and walked right on by, within a foot of them. I was amazed. But now that I think about it, MEH took on way bigger things in life than a couple of old bears.

– Carolyn Sackariason, former Aspen Times reporter “HELLO AUNT MARY!” I would say whenever I saw her.

Though not related, we did share a last name. And, though not her nephew, she indulged me in my subterfuge. In fact, as the years went

by I think she actually began to see me as family. I know I felt that way about her.

Mary was more than a friend she was a symbol of all that I love about Aspen. Easy going, enthusiastic but deadpan honest, she saw it all in detail.

And chronicled everything. Slightly eccentric with her perfectly cut gray bangs, black garb, rimmed glasses, and a camera perpetually attached to her neck, she recorded the best of this place.

While not a big drinker, Mary always asked me about wine, especially during the Food & Wine Classic when she inevitably would quiz me about what was new, who should she shoot and what wines should she try.

I remember, not long after Jim had passed, that I ran into Mary on an icy

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

street between her house and Carl’s Pharmacy. She was inching along precariously with a brown paper bag, obviously with a bottle of wine in it.

“Taking to the bottle Aunt Mary?”

I asked as I took the bag and her arm and crept with her towards her house.

“No, but I have a sore back and I read about one of your recommendations so I bought a bottle and some aspirin.”

I chuckled and escorted her into the warmth of her home where we sat in front of the fire as she poured a glass and showed me a photo of her beloved Jim. He was hanging upside down from the back of a single chair on lift 1A. She smiled as she gazed at it with pure love, “He used to scare me to death when he did that.”

Word is that, come spring, she will be joining Jim in the Aspen Grove Cemetery. I remember her once telling me that it was the best place in Aspen to live.

We laughed at the irony.

– Kelly J. Hayes, Aspen Times Weekly wine columnist WHEN I FIRST started writing for The Aspen Times arts and entertainment section, Mary came upstairs to introduce herself. She had that Friday’s A&E section in her hand.

“I wanted to ask you something,” she said, pointing to a story I’d written that week. “Is this a typo?

Is your name actually spelled A-MI-E-E?” When I confirmed that yes, it was indeed correct, she responded with a smile and said flatly, “That name is an editor’s nightmare.” She always joked about my “typo name,” especially when she was taking photos for “Around Aspen.” We bonded over our memories of being students at Syracuse University, and her endless stories of Aspen back in the good ol’ days. Always curious, always sweet, always a friendly face at Aspen soirées.

I will miss seeing those glasses from across the room, people of all ranks smiling eagerly for her point and shoot camera and the battered pocket notebooks she carried in which Mary meticulously jotted down the correct

spelling of her subject’s names. Those parties will never be as much fun without her. Rest in peace, MEH. – Amiee White Beazley, Aspen Times Weekly travel writer AS AN EMPLOYEE of the Aspen Times for over 25 years I had the wonderful opportunity to work with MEH. Since I worked in the production department, it was always a treat to help her with her anniversary ad to her husband, Jim Hayes. Her family was so important to her.

Recently she told me how proud she was to have three grandsons graduate from Notre Dame.

One year she asked me to go to Filmfest with her. It was such a honor and a privilege to be with her – everyone knew her. Imagine my surprise to find out that the movie was about her life.... done by a young lady who followed Mary around Aspen.

Afterwards, they interviewed Mary on the stage of the Wheeler. She said she usually didn’t want to be in front of the camera. She thought that it was her job to a mentor to anyone who had a passion for the newspaper business.

Growing up she said her dad had cut out and saved National Geographic magazine photos and stories. AT a very young age, she knew she wanted to be a writer and a photographer.

She had an incredible work ethic – and when she retired from being editor of the paper.... She was delighted with the gift she received – a very nice Mickey House watch (she was the same age as Mickey Mouse).

She always wore the same big round shaped glasses, and she did make me smile when she said, Just you wait they’ll be back in fashion again.

On her 50 years of working at The Aspen Times – we all wore big round-shaped sunglasses to her party, Hawaiian leis and buttons that read “It’s not a party without MEH.” Thank you... MEH... you are one of Aspen’s treasures.... you left us each with a photo legacy of memories of the way we were.

Along with Bil Dunaway, I will always think of Mary when I think about the spirit of The Aspen Times.

– Allyn Harvey We’ve lost an irreplaceable friend and citizen in Mary. Her amazing mind, sweet humor and capacity for kindness inspired a deep admiration that will be unforgettable to me and I’m sure to the many who knew and loved her.

– Margaret Wilson Reckling She was my earliest and longest memory of an Aspen citizen. She was everybody friend, and we lost a deep link to the past.

– Kathy Vagneur Henderson God bless. When I delivered Meals on Wheels on Fridays, Mary, God rest her soul, would sometimes be waiting out on the street so that I would not have to park my pick-up.

What an amazing soul!

Sitting here in Shanghai I miss many things about Aspen. Most of all, the people, and MEH to me represents all that remains good about that little mountain town. She was everyone’s friend yet I always felt special when I was around her. I wear the belt buckle Jim made for me regularly and it reminds me of two very special people. We will all miss her ... a personification of that expression “a life well lived.”

– Patti and Jay Webster I am very sad about this. Mary has been a fixture of Aspen for so long.

– Deborah Farrell Aspen has lost a historical icon: Mary Eshbaugh Hayes. Awardwinning writer, author, columnist, photographer and editor, Mary knew everyone in town, and everyone knew Mary. With her camera in tow, she photographed Aspen at its best and Aspen at its core for The Aspen Times. With her passing, at age 86, we’ve lost a part of our hearts. One summer long ago our son Austin worked as an intern at The Aspen Times. Mary took an interest in him and every year thereafter she always asked about him, wanting to know everything about his life to date. She was a kind and caring soul. She was full of life and youthful despite her years, To know Mary was to know a dear and trusted friend. Mary, may you live forevermore in the minds and hearts of every Aspenite. Bless you for giving us all your kindness and loving spirit.

I have only lived in the RF Valley for four years. I met Mary in the GWS Hot springs pool and spent many happy hours with her there. She made me feel at home. I had made a lifetime friend in a very short time.

WHAT IS ASPEN? Is it a miner’s town, a writer’s haven, an artist’s dream, a skier’s paradise, a millionaire’s playground? The newcomer hears these various wonders just what this tiny city in the mountains is. May I tell you the picture Aspen painted for me this autumn.

It’s the happy shouts of children as they play at dusk while their mothers cook supper. It’s the chimes of St. Mary’s Catholic Church as they sound and then re-echo through the town.

It’s the sweet faced little old ladies, who sit on front porches and tell you of the early days in Aspen when it was a young, sprawling miner’s town.

It’s the 19th century houses, covered with gingerbread, sitting beside a Swiss chalet or ultra-modern home. It’s the cracked old flowered wallpaper in tiny bedrooms where the caves make the ceiling meet the floor.

It’s riding the chair tow up the mountain side with the aspens whispering, their golden leaves shimmering like water flowing over gold dust in a creek.

It’s sitting on the Sundeck with the sun on your face and gazing out at the snow covered majestic peaks. The aspens are golden gashes on the mountain sides where they grow up the sides of the gulches.

It’s hiking down the mountain roads with the smell of the evergreens, hot in the autumn sun, Aspen overhead and fallen yellow leaves scattered over the faded brown dust of the road. As you enter a clearing, a herd of sheep stares at you and then runs pell mell down the mountain side.

It’s the crowd of people who attended the school carnival and had a wonderful time.

Aspen, then, is a friendly town where you can look around at the mountains early in the morning and be glad that silver once brought men to settle here.

Editor’s Note: This story first appeared in The Aspen Times on Jan. 24. There are no better words than these by Andy Stone, a longtime Aspen Times’ editor and dear friend of Mary, to describe her life.

MARY ESHBAUGH HAYES SEPT. 27, 1928 - JAN. 22, 2015

Mary Eshbaugh Hayes, award-winning writer, reporter, columnist, photographer and editor, died Jan. 22 in her Aspen home after a short battle with pancreatic cancer. She was 86. a small woman with a very large career, Hayes focused with directness, clarity and simplicity on Aspen and, more than that, on the people of Aspen, in her newspaper stories, her photographs and her books.

Moving to Aspen in 1952, Hayes went to work almost immediately as a reporter and photographer at The Aspen Times, then a struggling small-town weekly. After working at

the Times for two years, Hayes took 18 years off to raise her family while still working constantly as a freelance writer and photographer and helping run the family’s earthmoving business and her husband Jim’s silversmith business.

She then returned to the newspaper full time in 1972 as a reporter, then

editor and finally the editor-in-chief (under owner-publisher Bil Dunaway), overseeing the paper’s explosive growth and its shift from weekly to daily publication.

Through it all, Hayes continued to produce her weekly column, “Around Aspen,” which documented the life of the town in words and photos, covering “Aspen society” — in all the changing definitions of that term through the decades. Dressed simply, with her glasses perched on her nose and her camera slung around her neck, she would show up at Aspen parties, from the fanciest to the simplest, from the festivities of visiting millionaires to the celebrations of hard-working local families.

Known to one and all as MEH, Hayes was, in fact, known to one and all. After more than 60 years in Aspen, Hayes collected friends (never “acquaintances;” friendship was her gift) from every Aspen generation along the way.

Her daughter Pauli said that in recent years, it was almost impossible to accomplish any errands in town with her mother.

“It would take forever just to walk across town,” she said.

Their progress wasn’t slowed by Hayes’ age. She kept fit with regular trips to Glenwood Springs to swim a mile in the hot springs pool as well as constant hikes from her Bleeker Street

home down the hill to Clark’s Market and then home again, hauling a cart full of groceries. It was people who made crosstown progress impossible.

“Mary knew everyone,” Pauli said, “and everyone wanted to stop and talk to her. And she wanted to talk to them.

They loved and honored her, but she always wanted to talk about them — about what they’d been doing, about their new baby, about the things that had happened to them.”

She became the embodiment of the small town that Aspen had been when she moved here, where everyone knew everyone, a quality that was recognized when the Aspen Historical Society awarded her the (somewhat odd) title of “Living Landmark.”

Hayes’ focus on people ran as a clear thread through her life.

It was clear in her work, from her “Around Aspen” column to her thoughtful award-winning newspaper profiles of residents and visitors in her book “Aspen Potpourri,” a collection of photos and stories of local residents combined with their favorite recipes.

It was clear in her career as she served as a friend and mentor to many young writers and reporters and newspaper staffers. And it was clear, perhaps above all, in her devotion (strong, but never showy) to her family: Her husband Jim, their five children, six grandchildren and one great grandson.

Raising a large family was difficult in Aspen in the 1950s and ’60s.

“We were dead-flat broke,” Pauli Hayes remembered. “Barely enough money to feed ourselves.”

But MEH kept the family afloat, kept the family together and taught them all the importance of generosity and art.

“We never had a TV,” Pauli Hayes said. “We read books, we drew pictures, we painted. And Mary loved small, random acts of kindness. We would go out and gather wildflowers, roll little paper cones and fill them with flowers, and then Mary would go into town and just pop in and give people these little bouquets, little papers of posies.”

Though she was a reporter and an editor, though she ran a newsroom and — during her time away from the paper, raising her family — she also hired and fired truck drivers for the Hayes earthmoving business, Mary Hayes was never cynical.

“She was such an optimist,” Pauli Hayes said. “She was somehow almost

childlike, but with wisdom and breadth and compassion.”

Mary Eshbaugh Hayes was born Sept. 27, 1928, in Geneseo, New York.

She began her newspaper career at age 14 at the local Livingston Republican, writing address labels for newspapers that were sent to local soldiers serving in World War II. She once wrote that she loved “the smell, the clatter of the linotype, the clank of the press, the old oak roll-top desks, the typewriters ... the newspaper being printed that day.”

She was hooked.

She graduated from Syracuse University in 1950 with degrees in English and journalism, then turned down a job as managing editor of the Livingston Republican in order to “head west.” She moved to Aurora, where she worked at the Aurora Advocate for two years.

Moving to Aspen in 1952, she (as she described it) “snagged the best-looking bachelor in town,” Jim Hayes, and went to work at The Aspen Times. In the course of her career there, she won dozens of awards from the Colorado Press Women’s Association and the National Federation of Press Women.

Her books won the International Skiing History Association’s Ullr Award in 1997 and 2002. She was named to the Aspen Hall of Fame in 2008.

In addition to “Aspen Potpourri,” which has gone through five editions since 1968, she had significant publishing success with “The Story of Aspen,” which combined her newspaper profiles with photographs by herself and Aspen Times photographer Chris Cassatt. She also is known for her series of notecards featuring photos of Aspen Victorian doorways.

She is survived by her five children: Pauli Hayes, of Scottsville, Virginia; Elli Ford, of Center Sandwich, New Hampshire; Lauri Hayes, of Glenwood Springs; Clayton Hayes, of Honolulu; and Jess Bates, of Glenwood Springs and Aspen. She also is survived by her seven grandchildren and one great grandson: Gus Fitzgerald of Aspen; Tamas Bates, of Seattle; Paul Hayes, David Hayes and Reid Hayes, of Honolulu; Meridith Carr, of Annapolis, Maryland, and her son, John Carr; and Alice Ford, of Los Angeles. A memorial service is tentatively planned for summer 2015.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Hospice of the Valley.

A GOOD YEAR TO BE BAD SUNS

AFTER A BREAKOUT 2014, SOCAL ROCK BAND MAKES ASPEN DEBUT AT BELLY UP 2014 WAS NOT A BAD YEAR FOR BAD SUNS. The young Southern California band saw the release of its debut EP, followed by its first full album — the surprisingly mature, infectiously anthemic “Language & Perspective” — and its first headlining national tour, in a breakout year that the band hopes is the beginning of an enduring rock career.

The late January day that I spoke to Bad Suns frontman Christo Bowman happened to be the oneyear anniversary of the release of his band’s four-song “Transpose” EP. As Bowman recalls, the band began that day snowed in after a Boston show, digging out their tour van and making a harrowing drive to Vermont to make it in time for another concert.

After the buzz of “Transpose,” the critical darling status of “Language & Perspective,” the popularity of the single “Cardiac Arrest” and making the rounds on late night TV shows, life on the road is different a year later.

“Today I’m sitting on a tour bus in sunny San Diego, California, about to start a headlining tour, and we’re playing to hudreds, sometimes thousands, instead of 40 people every night,” Bowman says with a laugh. “So it’s been a crazy jump for us. We’re excited and enjoying it.”

Though they’re young — ranging in age from 20 to 23 — the quartet has been playing together for a long time, building a songwriting and performing rapport in the process.

Bowman has been playing with bassist Gavin Bennett and drummer Miles Morris for six years. Guitarist Ray Libby joined three years ago, when Bad Suns was born.

“When a year passed before, not so much would change,” Bowman says. “Whereas now, there’s been a multitude of events. It didn’t all happen at once, but it all happened in rapid succession.”

Songs like “Move Like the Ocean,” “Rearview” and ”Sleep Paralysis,” he says, came from playing around with chord progressions with Bennett. The timeless opening lick of “Transpose,” Bowman recalls, he stumbled on when he was 13 years old. He liked it, and hung on to it until it found a home years later when he was writing songs with the band.

Theirs is a catchy brand of indie pop, full of earworm melodies and sing-along ready choruses. It’s not surprise that Bowman has an abiding love for bands like Led Zeppelin and U2, Depeche Mode and the songwriting of The Cure’s Robert Smith. With the hit “Cardiac Arrest” under their belt, Bowman says, he and his bandmates are wary of getting repetitive as songwriters.

“We don’t say, ‘OK, let’s write another one of those.’ It sucks when bands do that,” he says.

Asked about goals for the band after this first taste of success, Bowman says he wants the band to simply keep its standards high.

“Really we just want to keep writing

Janu ar y 29 - Febr u ar y 4, 20 15

songs that we want to listen to, that we want to play and that we’re excited about,” he says. “When it comes to music, we’re stubborn assholes.”

The band makes its Aspen debut this week, with a show Tuesday night at Belly Up. Colorado has treated the band well on past tours. Most of the dates on the 28-stop tour are already sold out — including a show Wednesday at Larimer Lounge in Denver — but tickets were still available for the Aspen concert at press time.

“That’s always the point in the tour

where we start to feel like we’re home again,” Bowman says. “We’re always happy when we find ourselves in Colorado.” atravers@aspentimes.com

Up to 30 acre feet of Ruedi Reservoir, decreed in the Garfield County District Court

in Civil Action No. 4613 for domestic, municipal, irrigation, industrial, generation of electrical energy, stock watering and piscatorial uses, with an appropriation date of July 29, 1957. By subsequent order of the Water Court entered in Case No. W-789-76, the decreed amount of this reservoir has been fixed at 102,369 acre-feet. Ruedi Reservoir is located in Sections 7, 8, 9, 11 and 14 through 18, Township 8 South, Range 84 West, of the Sixth P.M., in Eagle and Pitkin Counties, and derives its water supply from the Fryingpan River. Elk Wallow has acquired a contract right to the delivery of up to 30 acre-feet of Ruedi Reservoir water from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, all or a portion of which will be utilized in this application. Any remaining amount of the 30 acre-feet Ruedi Reservoir contract water will be utilized in a separate application or applications. 5. Description of the Plan for Augmentation and Appropriative Rights of Exchange: By this application, Elk Wallow seeks to augment, either directly or by exchange, out-of-priority evaporative depletions from Marolt Reservoir, Marolt Reservoir First Enlargement, Marolt Pond, and Marolt Pond First Enlargement described in paragraph 3 above. a. Augmentation Plan. To permit the requested out-of-priority evaporative depletions, Elk Wallow proposes to cause the release of or otherwise commit to the Roaring Fork and Colorado Rivers from the Ruedi Reservoir contract water described in paragraph 4 above.

The replacement water will be provided upstream of the location of the calling water right. The precise timing and amount of releases from Ruedi Reservoir shall be subject to administration by the Division Engineer and/or the Water Commissioner. b. Depletion Assumption. It is assumed that all evaporative depletions from Marolt Reservoir, Marolt Reservoir First Enlargement, Marolt Pond and Marolt Pond First Enlargement are 100% consumptive. As denoted on the tables attached hereto as Exhibit B and C, total annual losses from Marolt Reservoir and Marolt Reservoir First Enlargement have been estimated to be 12.56 acre feet (4.30 surface acres) and total anticipated out-of-priority dry-year evaporative losses from Marolt Pond and Marolt Pond First Enlargement have been estimated to be 10.51 acre feet (3.60 surface acres). The total out-of-priority dry-year evaporative losses are anticipated to total 15.66 acre feet over the total 7.90 surface acres as shown on Table 1. c. Exchange Plan Reach and Rate.

When an exchange is necessary to augment its out-of-priority depletions, Elk Wallow seeks the right to operate the following appropriative right of exchange: Elk Wallow seeks approval of a plan to augment by exchange out-of-priority evaporative depletions from Marolt Reservoir and Marolt Pond pursuant to its contractual right to the delivery of Ruedi Reservoir water described in paragraph 4 above. The downstream terminus of both exchanges is the confluence of the Fryingpan and Roaring Fork Rivers located in the SW1/4 SE1/4 of Section 7, Township 8 South, Range 86 West, in the 6th P.M. at a point 1440 feet from the east Section Line, and 750 feet from the south Section Line of said Section 7. The upstream termini of the exchanges are the centroids for Marolt Reservoir and Marolt Pond. The centroid of Marolt Reservoir is the SE1/4 NW1/4 of Section 9, Township 10 South, Range 85 West, in the 6th P.M. at a point 1,622 feet from the north Section Line and 2,294 feet from the west Section Line of said Section 9. The centroid for Marolt Pond is the NE1/4 SW1/4 of Section 9, Township 10 South, Range 85 West, in the 6th P.M. at a point 2,249 feet from the south Section Line and 2,299 feet from the west Section Line of said Section 9. The cumulative maximum rate of exchange is 0.22 cfs. The exchange or any portion thereof described herein shall only operate in priority. The exchange reaches are shown in the attached Exhibit D. d. Priority Date. A December 30, 2014 priority date is sought in connection with the subject plan for exchange, which is the date of filing of this application.

6. Measurement Devices. So as to ensure the operation of the augmentation and exchange plan, Elk Wallow will install and maintain such water measuring devices and implement such accounting procedures as may be required to verify that the amount of augmentation and exchange water equals or exceeds the amount of out-of-priority depletions resulting from the use of water under the claimed plan for augmentation and exchange.

7. Names and addresses of owners of land upon which structures are or will be located, upon which water is or will be stored, or upon which water is or will be placed to beneficial use: Applicant.

Legal description of structure as described in the most recent decree: The decreed point of diversion for the Salvation Ditch is located on the north bank of the Roaring Fork River at a point from whence the east quarter corner of Section 7, Township 10 South, Range 84 West of the 6th P.M. bears North 2˚ 48’ West 5633.4 feet. Decreed source of water: Roaring Fork River. Appropriation date: August 2, 1902. Total amount decreed: 58 c.f.s., absolute. Decreed use or uses: Irrigation. Amount of water that applicant intends to change: 0.13 c.f.s. Detailed description of proposed change.

Complete statement of change: Applicants own 298 Salvation Ditch Company shares, which have been historically used to irrigate approximately 20.1 acres on Applicants’ property depicted on the map on file with the Court. Diversion records for the Salvation Ditch are on file with the Court.

Based upon the 12,100 shares currently outstanding, Applicants are entitled to divert and have used approximately 2.5 percent of the Salvation Ditch’s historical diversions to irrigate 20.1 acres on Applicants’ property. Applicants request approval of a change of use of 0.13 c.f.s. of its Salvation Ditch water rights to include storage and augmentation as decreed uses. As a result of building footprints, pond system footprints, and driveways constructed on Applicants’ property, Applicants have dried up or will dry up approximately 1.81 historically irrigated acres on Applicants’ property.

The dryup is depicted on the map on file with the Court. Applicants will employ accounting procedures and install measuring devices as required by the Division Engineer to ensure that this change of water right will not result in an expansion of historical use of the amount of water changed.

Applicants’ consulting engineer has determined that the 0.13 c.f.s. of water historically used to irrigate the 1.81 acres of land being permanently dried up results in a consumptive use credit of 2.16 acre-feet of water per year (1.19 acre feet per acre), based on a Blaney-Criddle analysis adjusted for altitude. A summary of the Blaney-Criddle analysis is on file with the Court. Accordingly, the change of water right will result in 2.16 acre-feet of consumptive use credits per year. Applicants intend to store the consumptive use credits in the Upper Irrigation Pond, Middle Irrigation Pond, and Parcel 2 Irrigation Pond as an augmentation source under the plan for augmentation requested below. The name and address of the owner of the land upon which any new diversion or storage structure will be constructed: Applicants. Sixth Claim: For Approval of Plan for Augmentation, Including Exchange.

Description of water rights: Case No.: This case. Name of Court: District Court, Water Division No. 5, Colorado. Legal descriptions: See above. A map of the ponds is on file with the Court. Appropriation date: August 1, 2012 for the Upper Irrigation Pond, Lower Irrigation Pond, and Leland Wetland Pond, and July 31, 2014 for the Parcel 2 Irrigation Pond. Amounts: See above. Source: Roaring Fork River, via Salvation Ditch. Decreed uses: Aesthetic, recreation, piscatorial, fire protection, and as irrigation control structures for Applicants’ senior water rights. Other water rights diverted from these structures? Yes, the structures will be used as irrigation control structures for Applicants’ Salvation Ditch water. Case No. & Court: See above. Legal descriptions of structures: See above. Water rights to be used for augmentation: Salvation Ditch consumptive use credits. Date of original decree and subsequent decrees: January 21, 1905.

(1) The BWCD owns 441 shares of Class 1 stock issued by the Robinson Ditch Company. The said 441 shares equal 24.16% of the total shares and are associated with 9.73 cfs of the 40.26 cfs decreed to the Robinson Ditch. (2) District Court in and for Garfield County.

Legal description of point of diversion: The point of diversion as decreed is located on the North bank of the Roaring Fork River one-half mile below the mouth of Sopris Creek in Section 11, T. 8 S., R. 87 West, 6th P.M. Historic use: Irrigation of approximately 137.2 acres of hay and pasture under BWCD’s interest in the Robinson Ditch water rights. In Case No. 93CW319, the Court decreed that 360 acre-feet of annual consumptive use credits are associated with said irrigation. In that case, the Court also decreed a change of use of BWCD’s Robinson Ditch rights to include augmentation. BWCD makes the credits available to contract allottees for use pursuant to an approved substitute supply plan or decree of Court.

Complete statement of plan for augmentation: Applicants own property in the Woody Creek drainage which is irrigated with Salvation Ditch water.

The location of Applicants’ property is shown in Figure 4 on file with the Court. Applicants intend to construct new ponds which will be filled with water from the Salvation Ditch, and augmented under this plan. The locations of the proposed ponds are shown in Figure 1 on file with the Court.

Applicants will fill the Upper Irrigation Pond, Middle Irrigation Pond, Leland Wetland Pond, and Parcel 2 Irrigation Pond under their own junior priorities in free river conditions each spring. When a call from a water right located below the confluence of the Roaring Fork and Frying Pan Rivers would otherwise prevent Applicants from refilling and topping off the Upper Irrigation Pond, Middle Irrigation Pond, Leland Wetland Pond, and Parcel 2 Irrigation Pond, the Basalt Water Conservancy District will release water described above, and Applicants will augment out-of-priority pond depletions with this water, by exchange. When a call from a water right located above the confluence of the Roaring Fork and Frying Pan Rivers would otherwise prevent Applicants from refilling and topping off the Upper Irrigation Pond, Middle Irrigation Pond, and Parcel 2 Irrigation Pond, Applicants will continue to fill these ponds with the Salvation Ditch consumptive use credits decreed in this case. Applicants’ consulting engineer calculated the consumptive use rates and amounts under the modified Blaney-Criddle method, adjusted for altitude, as shown in Table 3 on file with the Court. Average annual pond evaporation for 1.41 acres of open pond and water feature surface area is 4.17 acre-feet. Based on a conservative assumed call period, 2.96 acre-feet of pond evaporation depletion will be augmented under this plan, as shown in Table 4 on file with the Court.

Gross evaporation is based on NOAA Technical Report NWS 33, Evaporation for the Contiguous 48 United States, using the isopleths of annual shallow lake evaporation for the State of Colorado. Applicants claim no credit for effective precipitation. The Leland Wetland Pond will operate as a recharge pit to mimic groundwater return flows from the historically irrigated acreage Applicants will dry up. The Wetland Pond will at times store water, but will be unlined and will be used to seep return flow water into the ground in the same time, location, and amount, as return flows from the historically irrigated acreage. Applicants have included the surface area of the Leland Wetland Pond, and the open fill ditches for all three ponds, in the augmented pond and water feature surface area in this case. An evaporation summary for the Upper Irrigation Pond, Middle Irrigation Pond, Leland Wetland Pond, and Parcel 2 Irrigation Pond is attached as Table 5. Dry year operational analyses (augmentation schedules) are on file with the Court. The name and address of the owner of the land upon which any new storage structures will be built: Applicants. Remarks: Applicants will limit their total diversion from the Salvation Ditch at their properties to within the amounts Applicants historically diverted and the Ditch Company shares they own to ensure there is no expansion of use.

Appropriation Date: Jan. 22, 1981.

Use: Irrigation, domestic, municipal, generation of electrical energy, stock watering, industrial, piscatorial, recreation and maintenance of sufficient storage reserves to fulfill contractual obligations and provide stored water for recreation in times of drought. Statement of plan for augmentation: Nature and Purpose of Plan. Applicant owns water rights for the Maroon Creek Development Corporation Reservoir Nos. 1-4, which are located on and used for golf course operations at the Maroon Creek Club golf course. See the Ponds Location Map attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference. The purpose of the plan for augmentation is to augment out-of-priority evaporative depletions from the Maroon Creek Development Corporation Reservoir Nos. 1-4 so that the reservoirs may remain full throughout the golfing season. Out-of-priority evaporation from the reservoirs will be augmented using Applicant’s interest in the Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch, described in Paragraph 3.A above, and using contract storage water from the Colorado River Water Conservation District, described in Paragraph 3.B above. This plan will augment for a local call on Maroon Creek and for a downstream call on the Roaring Fork River or Colorado River. Estimated Water Depletions. Depletions to be augmented under this plan consist solely of evaporation from the Maroon Creek Development Corporation Reservoir Nos. 1-4. The reservoirs have a combined surface area of 5.9 acres. Total evaporation losses for Applicant’s 5.9 acres of pond surface area are estimated to be 16.59 acre-feet per year, calculated using the SEO method outlined in the General Guidelines for Substitute Water Supply Plans for Sand and Gravel Pits and SEO Policy 2004-3. The annual gross free water surface evaporation is 38.5 inches based on NOAA Technical Report NWS 33. Effective precipitation is zero and ice cover occurs mid-November through mid-March. The evaporation rate and schedule of monthly depletions are shown on Table 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Augmentation Requirements. The lower Colorado River, the Roaring Fork River, and Maroon Creek are subject to water right calls or potential future calls periodically during the year. The Applicant will augment out-of-priority evaporative depletions from the Maroon Creek Development Corporation Reservoir Nos. 1-4 using Applicant’s River District contract water and Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch HCU credits, including bypass of historical diversions from the Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch, based on the water right call location. Local Call – Maroon Creek. Applicant will rely on bypass of historical diversions from its interest in the Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch to augment a local call on Maroon Creek. The Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch diverts water from Maroon Creek, but return flows from historical irrigation accrued downstream on the Roaring Fork River. Only a minimal amount of ditch seepage (approximately 5 percent of diversions) returned to Maroon Creek, resulting in 95 percent of Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch diversions being fully consumptive as to Maroon Creek. Using the diversion amount associated with its 12 acre-feet of consumptive use credits, minus 5 percent for historical ditch seepage, Applicant has a local augmentation credit in the amount of 86.77 acre-feet per year, as detailed on the schedule set forth on Table 2, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. According to the depletion schedule on Table 2, up to 14.3 acre-feet of augmentation water would be needed to offset depletions to Maroon Creek during May through October.

Historically, a local call has not occurred on Maroon Creek, and Applicant’s consultants anticipate a potential future call would be limited to August through October. Although Applicant only anticipates the potential for a local call from August through October, if a call occurs during May through October, the bypass of historical diversions is more than sufficient to offset evaporative depletions from the Maroon Creek Development Corporation Reservoir Nos. 1-4, as shown on Table 2. Roaring Fork River Call. There has never been a call placed on the Roaring Fork River between Maroon Creek and the Colorado River. However, if a future senior call is placed on the Roaring Fork River between Maroon Creek and the Fryingpan River, Applicant will use its 12 acre-feet of HCU credits to augment such a call. In the event that Applicant’s HCU credits are insufficient to fully offset evaporative depletions from the Maroon Creek Development Corporation Reservoir Nos. 1-4, the reservoir levels will be allowed to drop commensurate with such evaporation. Table 2 shows operation of the augmentation plan assuming a Roaring Fork River call upstream of the Fryingpan River from August through October. Downstream Call. Applicant estimates that 11.65 acre-feet of its depletions could occur during times of a downstream “Cameo” call on the Colorado River. Applicant will augment such out-of-priority depletions using its Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch consumptive use credits, supplemented by Applicant’s contract with the River District for the augmentation storage water identified in paragraph 3.B above. Applicant’s schedule of augmentation requirements for a downstream “Cameo” call is set forth in Table 3, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. As shown by the schedule, during the months of April, August, September, October and November, Applicant’s Stapleton Brothers’ Ditch credits are not sufficient to fully augment evaporation losses against a “Cameo” call. Applicant will rely on its River District

INTELLIGENT EXERCISE

by OLIVER A. HOUCK for HIGH COUNTRY NEWS

BOOK REVIEW

NOTEWORTHY

‘DOWNSTREAM TOWARD HOME’ TULANE UNIVERSITY LAW PROFESSOR Oliver A. Houck first caught John McPhee’s attention in 1987, when the famed New Yorker writer began researching the elaborate levee system that controls the Mississippi River. In McPhee’s resulting essay, “Atchafalaya,” Houck represents the “ecologue” determined to fight the river’s manipulation. His voice is assertive and direct: “The greatest arrogance was the stealing of the sun,” Houck tells McPhee. “The secondgreatest arrogance is running rivers backward. The third-greatest arrogance is trying to hold the Mississippi in place.”

Houck’s latest book, his fourth, is “Downstream Toward Home,” a celebration of rivers from Alaska to Florida, from the St. John in Maine to the Gila in southwest New Mexico.

Small moments of outrage burst from the page, but in general the writing feels restrained, as if the author — 30 years and countless environmental battles

Even when he describes the environmental victories he helped to win, Houck refuses to leave readers with false hope. Time and again, Houck reminds us that “nothing saved is forever.”

“The Buffalo (River) and all rivers, and all wilderness, and entire ecosystems, and an increasing number of living things at this juncture, are as safe as we let them be and no more,” he writes.

“Some find that a comforting thought.

We are the species in charge. Some find it proof of our proximity to god. I do not find it either one.”

after his encounter with McPhee — has lost some of his bite. This is less the bold Oliver Houck of “Atchafalaya,” than an aging conservationist determined to revisit and share his memories before they fade: competing with the crew team at Harvard, getting lost in a swamp, hitchhiking in West Virginia, paddling small creeks after big rains, exploring Colorado’s Cache la Poudre, camping with his students and more.

But the former “Louisiana Conservationist of the Year” can still engage readers as we accompany him on a lifetime of river journeys. In a book filled with bite-size anecdotes, several stand out as truly remarkable, not simply because of their subject matter but because of Houck’s unique and often mystical take on the world.

“It was more elegant than a dog ever could be,” he writes, describing a fox near Washington, D.C.’s Rock Creek.

“It was standing in a pool of light from a lamppost, the mist sparkling as it

Hi. My name is Scooby and I’m looking for my forever home. I am about 2 years old and I am a mix between a Swiss Mountain dog and a Great Pyrenees I’m tall and lanky. I weigh about 75 pounds. I get along well with other dogs, cats don’t bother me at all and I love kids as long as they are nice to me. My foster says I am the sweetest. I really love to go on walks/adventures, am great on a leash and my foster mom has taught me to sit when she stops so I do, no problem. I love to play ball and think fetch is so much fun! I love to snuggle.

I am totally house trained and not a big barker. I was treated too harshly at one point so it may take me a bit to feel safe, I just need to know you won’t hit me and I’ll snuggle right up to you. If you would like to take me home, please fill out an adoption application on www.luckydayrescue.org or call Kelley on 970-379-4606. Scooby is already neutered, current on his vaccinations, de-wormed and micro chipped.
