From the latest Silverton paper.. The fat tire bike ride.. I wondered what those were for..
Family that rides together..
Hard to believe it might have been warmer there than it was here..
The "kick sled" sleds were made in Silverton for a while.. I would have loved to have gotten one when they were made there if only to have someone ask, "well where did you get that?" And I would say Silverton Colorado.. But they were forced to leave and they went up over the mountain to Teluride..
Maybe not the best "cartoon" to have in the paper as an ice climber had fallen some 900 feet to his death a week before this.. He was free climbing for what was likely just a quick adjustment, but something happened and he fell.. He was showing some other climbers how it's done.. They decided not to do that untie yourself thing.. Smart move..
Snowscape and fire works.. Up there fire works on the forth of July is a 40 degree event.. Imagine being in the flats of Nebraska and the fire works are fairly warm evening, go up to Silverton and it's chilly.. And then watch them in February and that could be downright COLD... But fun..
