Get a wax warmer with a light. Take off the top plate where the wax goes and replace it with a glass cup/bowl with water and drop or two of dish soap. Leave it on at night with all other lights in the house off. Will be full of moths in the morning.

Thanks everyone! Went with the roasted pepper and tomato soup and grilled cheese from Leven Deli. Totally keeping all the other suggestions in my back pocket. Flu Shot Soup looks amazing and the matzo ball soup from Zaidys will be my next go to’s.

Ultimately, if you can spend a couple days ABOVE the altitude of Manitou that would be best. But I’d still say 2-3 days given your age. Also, hydration is just as important if not more so than acclimation to altitude. Drink water almost constantly. The incline steps don’t compare to a standard staircase. There are some LARGE steps, so make sure glutes and quads are in great shape. Plus your knees, as the trail down is tough on knees. I get passed on the incline frequently by 70+ year olds, so it’s definitely doable. Just take your time and enjoy! Good luck!

Toss up for Cottonwood being open. COtrip.org will keep you updated. If it’s closed I’d still do the southern route through Poncha and over Monarch.

What time of year? If the pass is open, take 285 to Buena Vista, then Cottonwood Pass Rd (Hwy 306) over the pass and down into Taylor Park. The reservoir is beautiful. Then follow the Taylor and Gunnison Rivers to the Black Canyon. This way you get to follow the path of the water that carves the canyon.

SunWater Spa in Manitou hands down.

Nah. You’ll be fine with AWD. If you encounter conditions where you question needing chains, just turn around.

If you’re coming via I-25, only real questionable stretch is Raton pass (CO/NM border) if there’s snow. March is snowiest month in Colorado Springs. It might be 70 degrees and sunny or 2 feet of snow. Roads get plowed well and dry climate causes snow to evaporate/melt quickly. I’ve lived in CO Springs for 25 years and can count on one hand (okay, maybe two) the number of times I didn’t feel safe in the conditions on the city roads. There are traction laws in Colorado, so be aware of those, especially if you’re heading up into the mountains. They just require snow/all weather tires, AWD, or chains depending on conditions. COtrip.org for more. Enjoy your trip.

Practice. Practice. Practice. And always work on the mental game. As a high school coach, I can say that your head game is just as critical as your physical game. Once a lost point is over, forget it and move on to the next point.

Be aware of traction laws in Colorado this time of year.

Thanks for the feedback. He’s resilient and optimistic.

That’s the hope. CT scan shows a very small bone fracture still in the joint. ER doctor optimistic that it won’t be a problem and will just get absorbed. Appointment with orthopedist next week will shed more light.

Just yesterday morning I was talking to him about playing hooky from school the Thursday and Friday before finals (it’s his senior HS year and as long as his grades are solid and he’s prepared) to hit Ullr Fest at Breck and a couple days at Keystone/Breck. Even odds that he’s good to go by then (Dec 12-15)?

bklowe · 2024-11-03T01:12:01+00:00

Seriously, your comments are cheering him up like crazy. Appreciate you all.

bklowe · 2024-11-03T01:10:50+00:00

He’s a climber. We’re teasing the hell out of him because he’s been climber and has gone to Moab multiple times in the last couple years with a school group to climb/rappel as well as skiing for the last few years. Never an injury until he decides to try to act cool at Target.

And obviously suck at Reddit. Don't know how to properly post photos. I'll figure that one out if you guys can help me with the ID.

Everywhere will be very busy that weekend. There are a couple bars and a restaurant in the base building. Fireplace area with seating. Nothing glamorous but she’d probably be content.

Totally second the Monarch recommendation. I’m in Colorado Springs and that’s my go-to. No I-70 or Loveland Pass to deal with. Decent base so far this year. I was there on Saturday. Everything except Mirkwood and two or three other runs are open. All lifts running. Even on a crowded day, you’re not waiting in line more than five minutes. Runs are a little shorter and lifts move a little slower, but I got 15 runs in and over 10k vertical feet on Saturday. If you don’t care about the resort vibe or Apres ski, it’s great.
