Ski-town Music Festivals Are Not Just Summertime Affairs Anymore: Four Melodic Events to Get You Dancing in Your Ski Boots.
The quiet was not meant to last. Ruffling its feathers, the Grey Jay perched above me seems perturbed by the sudden unmistakable twang it doesn’t recognize. The sound comes again, a fifth lower this time, and the Jay takes flight from what it (correctly) perceives to be a rapidly changing scene. It’s too bad: My feathered friend is about to miss a helluva show.
Moments later, random notes begin to ring out into the cold air. Adjustments are made as the mandolin, banjo, and guitar are all tuned to their players’ satisfaction. Halfway up Steamboat mountain seems a precarious and frigid place to bring such instruments, yet the musicians seem unfazed. A quick nod and wink passes among the bandmates and their instruments come to life. The warming sounds of bluegrass ring forth. Clad in ski gear, ale in hand, I grin from ear to ear as the annual Winter- WonderGrass bluegrass festival gets underway.

How Not To Teach Your Kids To SKI
It was the coldest month of the year in the coldest place in Colorado. We’d pulled into the parking lot at Ski Cooper on that February morning and dashed into the lodge, vicious wind whipping any exposed skin. I briefly wondered if maybe this wasn’t the ideal first ski experience for my toddler. But no. We came here to ski, and damn it, we were going to ski.
