By Adrienne Markey, University of Colorado 2025 Graduate Growing up, I spent weekends skiing in Winter Park, Colorado. My love for the sport eventually led me to the Competition Center, where I first heard of Ellie Huff, the big-mountain skier with beautiful doodles on her Kinco mittens. I knew of Ellie as a talented skier and artist, and discovered her project, Novia, through our mutual ski buddies. Later, at CU, I started working with Shredder Ski School, an indoor ski school where I coached kiddos ranging from 1 to 11 years old. At Shredder, I got to work with nervous little girls…

We've recently been treated to shockingly bright and colorful sunsets and sunrises. Last night, 12-14, we were treated to a more subtle banding of red over a blue sky. In the interest of transparency (pun intended) this sunset photo is slightly enhanced to bring out the banding in the red stripes wh…

We've recently been treated to shockingly bright and colorful sunsets and sunrises. Last night, 12-14, we were treated to a more subtle banding of red over a blue sky. In the interest of transparency (pun intended) this sunset photo is slightly enhanced to bring out the banding in the red stripes which treated us. The air in front of the front range is known for dangerous flying. A band of updraft follows a band of downdraft and that pattern repeats. Pilots unaware of this phenomenon get caught in a downdraft without knowing that simply moving over can put them into a band of updraft. While …

When I first started as a film critic, I had close to zero problems writing a bad review. My calculus was simple; if you make a film and release it for public consumption, you should be prepared for positive and negative reactions. You worked really hard on a project and people don’t like it? Hey,…

When I first started as a film critic, I had close to zero problems writing a bad review. My calculus was simple; if you make a film and release it for public consumption, you should be prepared for positive and negative reactions. You worked really hard on a project and people don’t like it? Hey, them’s the breaks. Plus, if I’m being honest with you, there was a low, cruel kind of pleasure I’d get trashing a movie. Coming up with the right zinger, the right snide remark. Over time, my perspective changed, mostly due to some bright spots in my screenwriting career. An up close loo…

Boulder Mondays Start Outside Mondays don’t need more pressure. They don’t need louder alarms, stronger coffee, or a longer to-do list. What Mondays really need is a better beginning. In Boulder, we’re fortunate to live in a place that quietly reminds us of this every single morning. Before emails pile up. Before the calendar starts demanding attention. Before the mind runs ahead of the body. Boulder offers something simple, grounding, and powerful: the outdoors. A Motivational Monday in Boulder doesn’t begin with a quote or a productivity hack. It begins by stepping outside. M…

Today’s Outdoor Picture of the Day captures one of Boulder’s most iconic natural landmarks—the Royal Arch, a dramatic sandstone formation perched high in the Flatirons at an elevation of approximately 6,960 feet. Framed by rugged rock walls and expansive skies, the Royal Arch feels both monumental and intimate, a place where Boulder’s geological history and outdoor culture meet in unforgettable fashion. This epic image showcases why the Royal Arch remains one of the most photographed and admired destinations in Boulder’s Open Space and Mountain Parks system. Whether glowing in early…
Boulder is famous for its sunrises. The fiery skies, the golden light on the Flatirons, the feeling that anything is possible before the day begins. But when the sun slips behind the mountains and the air cools, Boulder reveals a different kind of beauty—one that’s quieter, calmer, and just as p…

Boulder is famous for its sunrises. The fiery skies, the golden light on the Flatirons, the feeling that anything is possible before the day begins. But when the sun slips behind the mountains and the air cools, Boulder reveals a different kind of beauty—one that’s quieter, calmer, and just as powerful. After dark, the city exhales. The daytime buzz fades, the trails empty, and the streets soften into a gentle glow. Pearl Street lights twinkle instead of dazzle. Conversations slow. Footsteps echo just enough to remind you that you’re not alone, even when it feels wonderfully still. Bou…

Lensworth here! Still buzzing with Jorma magic! What a show! Next to Boulder, 30 minutes up the road, at the iconic Paramount art deco theater, Jorma Kaukonen played as part of his 85th Birthday tour. Jorma , of Jefferson Airplane, Hot Tuna, and so much more, stepped onto the famed stage and reminded everyone why his name sits so comfortably among the greats. He was joined by friends, including his long-time bass genius partner Jack Casady. Jorma was joined by a band that included fellow musicians who elevated the evening into something truly rare. Among them was Carlos Nakai, widel…

E-bikes have become one of Boulder’s hottest topics. You can’t ride down the Boulder Creek Path or pass the CU campus without seeing students, commuters, and weekend explorers cruising by with a little assist. They’re fast, convenient, environmentally friendly, and increasingly popular. But in…

E-bikes have become one of Boulder’s hottest topics. You can’t ride down the Boulder Creek Path or pass the CU campus without seeing students, commuters, and weekend explorers cruising by with a little assist. They’re fast, convenient, environmentally friendly, and increasingly popular. But in Boulder, where outdoor recreation and land stewardship run deep, e-bikes also come with plenty of questions about where they belong. If you’re considering hopping on an e-bike in town, here’s what you need to know about where you can legally ride, why the debate is heating up, and how Boulde…

Lensworth sunsets here! December Sunsets are always familiar and never the same. They are always uplifting and always shifting. When someone says "hey, look at this sunset," do NOT wait. They change instant by instant and are part of the reason we need a camera within reach. Phones seem especially great for sunrise and sunset pictures. The lighting on computer screens is also especially good for these glowing photographs. December sunsets never get old. I’ve tried. I go out night after night thinking, “I’ve seen this one before.” And then the sky politely proves me wrong. Th…

Some dogs just understand the spirit of Boulder, Colorado—and Seamus is one of them. With his bright eyes, confident stride, and tail that seems to catch the breeze just right, Seamus brings his joy to one of Boulder’s most cherished treasures: its wide-open fields and endless open space parks. For a dog who thrives on freedom, sunshine, and adventure, Boulder is paradise. Seamus spends most of his days exploring the vast tapestry of meadows and grasslands that make Boulder so unique. His favorite field sits along one of the city’s many open-space corridors, a place where the Flatiron…

There’s something about a cold December morning in Boulder that makes hot chocolate feel less like a drink and more like a ritual. When the air is sharp, the Flatirons glow softly in winter light, and breath turns visible on Pearl Street, hot chocolate becomes the perfect companion to the season. Boulder does hot chocolate differently. This isn’t just sugar and milk—it’s deep, dark chocolate, carefully steamed milk alternatives, and flavors that feel crafted for mountain mornings. Whether you’re coming off an early walk, meeting a friend, or simply warming your hands after stepping …

Let’s talk about that delicate dance between good cheer and good judgment. The holidays bring out the best in us: warmth, music, lights, friends, and the clink of glasses. They also bring out a classic seasonal combo that has been tempting fate for generations. Entertainment and alcohol mix easily. Add a touch of cannabis to the blend, and suddenly New Year’s Eve earns its nickname of amateur's night all over again. The risks are real, and the good news is that they’re almost entirely avoidable with a little planning and a bit of Lensworth-style common sense. Start with the drinks we te…
