Boulder’s Closest Winter Playground When snow falls in Boulder, there’s a familiar question that follows: How fast can I get on skis? The answer, for locals, is almost always the same. Eldora Mountain Resort sits just west of town, tucked above Nederland, offering one of the quickest transitions from city streets to chairlifts anywhere in Colorado. At roughly 10,800 feet at the base, Eldora feels like a true mountain experience without the long highway commitment. That proximity changes everything — from spontaneous powder days to half-day laps that still leave room for dinner back i…

Boulder has always treated health as a way of life, but in 2026 that mindset has matured into something more intentional, data-aware, and deeply personal. Fitness here is no longer about chasing extremes. It’s about longevity, mobility, and feeling good in everyday movement—from trailheads to town. Movement First, Metrics Second The biggest shift in Boulder fitness culture is the move away from ego-driven performance and toward functional movement. Strength training still matters, but it’s now paired with mobility, balance, and joint health. People want bodies that work well on hikes, …
A fresh snowfall in Boulder has a way of simplifying everything. When the storm passes and the sky clears to a deep, confident blue, the city feels reset. The air is crisp, the light sharper, and the noise of daily life fades just enough to notice what matters. Beneath the Flatirons, this moment fee…

A fresh snowfall in Boulder has a way of simplifying everything. When the storm passes and the sky clears to a deep, confident blue, the city feels reset. The air is crisp, the light sharper, and the noise of daily life fades just enough to notice what matters. Beneath the Flatirons, this moment feels especially profound. After snow, the Flatirons stand out in bold relief. Their sandstone faces rise from a softened white foreground, dark rock etched cleanly against sky and cloud. Snow settles into ledges and seams, accentuating the formations rather than hiding them. It’s a contrast that …

On November 11, 1947, Winston Churchill said during a speech, “Many forms of government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except for all tho…

On November 11, 1947, Winston Churchill said during a speech, “Many forms of government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.” Churchill wasn’t wrong in his remarks about democracy, and I think the same concept could be accurately applied to capitalism. I know, some of you are going to unfurl your American flags and, with tears in your eyes, yell, “America h…

Colorado has plenty of strong colleges, and different lists will rank them differently depending on what they measure. But if you’re talking about the university that most completely represents Colorado on a national stage—academics, research, opportunity, and statewide influence—the University of Colorado Boulder is the school that consistently rises to the top of the conversation. “Top” should mean more than a number. It should mean: the strongest overall platform for students to build a life. A flagship that carries the state CU Boulder isn’t just a campus with a famous vie…

Winter in Boulder doesn’t signal retreat. It signals a reset. As snow settles along trails and the mornings arrive crisp and quiet, the city shifts into a rhythm that feels intentional rather than restrictive. While many places treat winter as something to endure, Boulder treats it as a defining season—one that reveals the city’s character more clearly than any other time of year. Here, winter isn’t about hiding indoors. It’s about living well within the season. Winter Is When Boulder Feels Most Authentic When temperatures drop, Boulder simplifies. The pace slows. The noise f…

Winter trail running in Boulder strips the experience down to its essentials. The air is sharp, the crowds thin out, and every footstep feels more deliberate. For runners who enjoy solitude, focus, and dramatic scenery, winter can be the most rewarding season of all. Boulder’s trail network remains surprisingly runnable year-round if you approach it with the right mindset. Snow, ice, and cold temperatures are part of the equation, but they don’t need to stop you. Instead, they invite a smarter, more intentional way of moving through the foothills. Why Winter Trail Running Works in Boul…

In Boulder, coffee isn’t a trend or a talking point. It’s part of the daily rhythm. It shows up before sunrise, after trail runs, between classes, and during quiet moments when the Flatirons catch the first light. Coffee here doesn’t demand attention. It settles in. That’s why it hits different. Mornings in Boulder begin with intention. Runners move along multi-use paths, climbers check the weather, students head to campus, and creatives open laptops while the city slowly comes to life. Coffee isn’t rushed or performative. It’s functional, grounding, and familiar. A warm cup …

There are Boulder days that stop you in your tracks, and this is one of them. This Outdoor Picture of the Day captures a lake in east Boulder on a crystal-clear winter morning, where still water mirrors the surrounding foothills and the Front Range rises with quiet confidence. The lake sits calm and reflective, while Green Mountain and Bear Peak anchor the horizon, reminding us exactly why Boulder winters feel so dramatic and alive.
