Vail Resorts recently announced prices for next ski season’s Epic Pass and Epic Pass Local, which are now on sale for $909 and $676, respectively. That’s an 8% increase compared to the season prior for unlimited access to some or all of Vail’s skiing destinations. But for folks who plan to ski five days or more at Colorado’s biggest resorts, that’s about as cheap as it gets.According to the National Ski Areas Association (NSAA), daily lift tickets in the Rocky Mountain region have increased from an average price of $97 in 2013 to $197 in 2022. That figure aggregates prices from Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana.In other words, skiers who don’t buy passes in advance pay significantly more than those who do, especially if they buy them on busy days. That’s because more resorts have embraced the idea of dynamic pricing on daily tickets, meaning the cost at the box office window fluctuates depending on consumer demand and other factors.

The Colorado Symphony will celebrate its 100th year next season and, in some ways, it is starting over. There is a new principal conductor, Peter Oundjian, on the podium for major performances and a new CEO, Mark Cantrell, in the main office directing operations.The two leaders, along with Tony Pierce, who programs music from the background, will lead an organization that seems to be in a constant state of mission redux. That is not unique; every serious orchestra in the country constantly shifts and wiggles trying to figure out how to make the music resonate and the money jingle in an era when tastes change continuously.There is some stability in the organization. The musicians are, by and large, veterans who are tuned in to their work well by long-time concertmaster Yumi Hwang-Williams. The orchestra’s second public face, Christopher Dragon (who goes by the title resident conductor), has been around long enough that audiences know his skills, and he understands what makes them hap...Campground closure at Rocky Mountain National Park could have ripple effect across Colorado forests

With Rocky Mountain National Park’s largest campground shutting down this summer for a modernization project, reducing available campsites on the eastern side of the park by more than half, ripple effects are apt to be felt at campgrounds across the Front Range.The closure of the Moraine Park Campground means 244 fewer sites for 2023, and it figures to put more pressure on nearby campgrounds in the adjacent Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests, which spreads out along the Continental Divide from Clear Creek County to the Wyoming border, and it ranks as the third-busiest in the U.S.“Our reservable campgrounds are in high demand,” said Reid Armstrong, Arapaho & Roosevelt spokesperson. “There’s seven and a half million people visiting our forests every year, and a lot of them want to camp. Planners need to be on it, planning their trips now.”To help, the forest service met with the national park few weeks ago, Armstrong said. “We are going to...What can Denver’s next mayor do about homelessness?

For years, candidates for mayor in Denver and in other large cities have vowed to end scenes of tents and tarps lining sidewalks and parks, but Mayor Michael Hancock warns that voters should be wary of anyone who claims they can fix the problem in a set amount of time.Hancock, who has dealt with persistent criticism over his handling of homelessness, said he wishes he had understood the issue’s complexity when he was first elected as mayor in 2011.“We have not been sitting around for 10, 11 years twiddling our thumbs and playing politics with the lives of human beings on our streets. These are human beings,” Hancock said. “And we have been working diligently to try to find the secret sauce for each individual so we can not only house them but stabilize them.”The number of people experiencing homelessness in the city has grown to at least 4,794, more than 44% compared to five years earlier, according to the metro Denver Point-In-Time count in 2022.
