Dr. Jamie Rupp, a Colorado native who’d relocated to Wyoming, has been identified as the man who died Sunday, September 3, on Challenger Point, a fourteener in Custer County, south of Cañon City. He is at least the tenth person to perish climbing a fourteener in Colorado in 2017, including an astonishing five casualties on Capitol Peak, in the Elk Mountains, over a span of just 43 days.
Lamb’s Bread is a classic strain doesn’t need any exotic flavors or frills to demand your respect.
The students came from schools all across Denver. Many marched miles from their respective campuses in long lines that stretched along streets and boulevards. Some chanted. Some held signs. But they were all headed to one location on Tuesday morning: the Tivoli Student Union on the Auraria Campus, to protest President Trump’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
Instead of creating its own edibles, tinctures, topicals and vaporizer cartridges, Bronnor creates them for other companies that don’t have manufacturing facilities in Colorado.
The people in charge of his money say they’re looking out for Alan Fantin. So why is he broke and adrift?
Shortly after the in-custody suicide of Benjamin Davis, leader of the 211 crew, a notorious white-supremacist prison gang, alleged 211 member Kirk Boyd has been sentenced to decades in stir for a crime spree that prosecutors say stretched over a five-week period and was fueled by methamphetamines.
Because of an injury to second-string bust-in-the-making quarterback Paxton Lynch, your Denver Broncos have signed Brock Osweiler to the team. Yes, the very same Brock Osweiler who left the squad last year in favor of the Houston Texans, mostly because he was upset that the team didn’t dump future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning in favor of him during the march to victory in Super Bowl 50. And fans haven’t forgotten, blasting him on Twitter much as they did when he signed a $72 million deal to split — and when the Broncos bested him and the Texans last October.
Is there any weed out there that won’t kill your memory?
As we noted in this space last year, the Interstate 70 express toll lane near Idaho Springs has actually reduced mountain driving hell. But that doesn’t mean the traffic situation from Denver into and out of the mountain corridor is anywhere near acceptable, especially on summer holidays like the just concluded Labor Day weekend, as my loved ones and I learned through bitter personal experience.
“A good teacher is like a candle – it consumes himself to light the way for others.” I remember reading that quote on a syllabus back around 2008, in one of my teacher-education classes at the University of Colorado Denver. I remember considering the slight hint of morbidity in that quote, and deep down in my gut I knew it was a foretelling of what was to follow.
Are you enjoying a real Rocky Mountain high this Labor Day weekend? Dispensaries report that Labor Day weekend is their biggest weekend of the year, as tourists and Coloradans alike get ready to enjoy cannabis when enjoying the great outdoors. But some readers don’t appreciate encountering marijuana fans on the…
An outsider candidate, Victor Mitchell has a business background and gave his campaign a $3 million loan. Some of our readers thought he had the chops for the job.
Colorado’s cannabis industry got plenty of national attention in August, largely because of an op-ed in USA Today headlined “Marijuana Devastated Colorado, Don’t Legalize It Nationally.” But our readers disagree.
Readers gave their own suggestions as to what the field should be named (and even offered up one strange use for Mile High).
A federal judge has ruled that Colorado’s sex offender registry violates rights of due process and amounts to cruel and unusual punishment.
And so the monthly Tips for Transplants series comes full circle: In October of 2016, we ran the first monthly rules list, all about the unwritten suggestions for surviving and thriving in Denver like you had a NATIVE bumper sticker on your Outback. And we’ve kept it going, every thirty days or so, to the amusement of some and the extreme indifference of others. But still, we persisted.
As we’ve reported, rent prices in metro Denver are finally starting to moderate, but they’re still up by a considerable amount over this time last year. The trend continues in the latest Denver rent report for September, which shows that prices are higher than they were twelve months earlier in all nine area communities analyzed. But the numbers are leveling off on a month-to-month basis, where only one of the nine experienced a rent increase of more than 1 percent since August, and costs actually fell in another metro town.
The highest selling weekends for Colorado dispensaries in 2016 might surprise you.
For more than a year, the Denver Broncos have been desperately trying to line up a new naming sponsor for Mile High Stadium following the bankruptcy and subsequent collapse of Sports Authority, the athletic-gear retailer that previously held the rights. Now the team says it’s likely the Sports Authority Field at Mile High moniker will still be on the facility when the 2017-2018 season kicks off September 11 against the Los Angeles Charges, and a branding authority says it could stick around for a lot longer than that.
As President Trump reportedly considers ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, Mayor Michael Hancock had a message for the White House on Thursday, August 31: “Mr. President, leave our DACA children alone.”
The CBD fad is growing fast in America, with everything from hemp-derived CBD vaporizers to high-CBD strains like AC/DC and Harlequin becoming more and more popular for medication. The mid-year report from the Hemp Business Journal, one of the more trusted sources in the industry, shows a rapidly growing field of CBD products that still has plenty of room to grow. But will big pharma take over?
As demonstrated by a racially charged protest gone fatally wrong in Charlottesville, Virginia, last month, white supremacists have no shame. But if they did, they’d probably be humiliated by even the slightest association with Colorado’s own Joshua Witt, who claimed to have been stabbed because of his resemblance to a neo-Nazi, only to later admit that the wound was self-inflicted.
