		<title>Yurting: The basics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A small but growing subculture of mountaineers has rooted itself in Colorado: Yurters. Dotting the Rocky Mountain landscape are tiny hybrid structures called yurts that strike the perfect balance between tent and cabin. People engaging in all manner of backcountry activity have begun relying on yurts as a way of shirking the weight of backpacking [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Bolder Life: Classy Happy Hours</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It comforts me to know that as I “grow and mature”, so does the age-old tradition of happy hour. When I was first introduced to the concept of happy hour as a wee twenty-one-year-old, I was introduced to alcohol that was cheap in every sense of the word. These days, even the fanciest of restaurants [...]]]></description>

		<title>An endurance event with a special place in Colorado</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Home to one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis in the country, Colorado is a fitting place to host one of the National MS Society’s 12 events nationwide. The National MS Society is the only nonprofit of its kind to entirely own and operate a mud endurance event: The annual Muckruckus. Last year, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A wild ride for civil liberties</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a long, strange couple of days on the liberty and freedom beat.
Down at the state Capitol, the mixed messages were that the Republicans will stoop to any level of political trickery to ensure that same-sex couples can’t enjoy the legal protections of civil unions but that there’s not as much will to impose [...]]]></description>

		<title>H&#124;Burger Comes to Boulder</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I guess you know you&#8217;re getting &#8220;old&#8221; in the restaurant writing biz when you can name three restaurants that have been in the same space.  I&#8217;m sure there were more before this, but since I&#8217;ve been writing for YS, I&#8217;ve seen Bim Bamboo, The Pinyon, and now H&#124;Burger occupy the same space on east Pearl.

		<title>The Bolder Life: Dining Under the Stars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


Summer is officially here, and aside from a little rain, it’s been blue skies and perfect hiking weather in Boulder County for the past few weeks. Farmers’ Markets have once again become the most popular place for weekly grocery shopping trips and the number of cyclists on the road has tripled in past month. Ski [...]]]></description>

		<title>Damn the Man</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“I don’t have anything to hide.”
I’ve heard that said more times than I care to count in the last decade or so. The politics of fear that have permeated American culture since 9/11 gave rise to the argument that only the guilty need their privacy; the rest of us should have no fear living open, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Challenging Elements: Comida Cantina</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the sun comes out and the temperature rises, I start craving grapes and margaritas and pretty much anything that can wake my palate up from hibernation with sweetness and bright flavors. And of course mangos, with their earthiness and luscious sweetness, become a favorite. It’s not at all local or indicative of Colorado cuisine.
But [...]]]></description>

		<title>Music Education My Way</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In 1972, I earned my first paycheck, took my first guitar lessons, bought my first rock albums and fell in love (and got dumped) for the first time, all at the end of my third-grade year.
The girl I fell for was drop-dead gorgeous. Tall and bodacious with long, flowing wheat-colored hair; she was stern when [...]]]></description>

Also, they all happen to be members of the Upright Citizens Brigade collective; the Second City players of the Big Apple (and now, Los Angeles), if you will. McAlpin [...]]]></description>

Hotel Jerome
Aspen
Reputation: From John Wayne and Hunter S. Thompson to today’s locals, welcome to the historic icon that still draws crowds.
In Aspen, there is no lack of luxury, dollar-dropping or collar-popping. It’s not unheard of to see Goldie Hawn at The Cantina or Kevin Costner playing pool at Eric’s Bar. So, you know you’ll spend some [...]]]></description>

Fort Collins
Reputation: Cool and casual, staying at the Armstrong is the second best thing to being a local.
For years, Fort Collins lacked the one thing that good downtowns need: a hip boutique hotel. Eight years ago, the Armstrong was rehabbed and life was put back into the 1923-built hotel. The rooms are a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Feet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My high school track career came to an end on the second day of practice, with a well-timed but poorly acted sprawl across the roots of a tree. I didn’t have to fake the hobbling because both of my knees felt like shattered glass, a sensation that developed within minutes of what would be a [...]]]></description>

“I got a coach, trained really hard for 10 weeks and somehow managed to win the (2006) world amateur title,” she says. “I seriously couldn’t believe what I had achieved!”
And in 2007, she quit her job and became a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crazy, Fit and Covered in Mud</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You don’t need to have ever participated in the Tough Mudder to know that it’s one tough mother of a race. Actually, scratch that. The Tough Mudder specifies that it’s not a “race,” but a “challenge,” which makes sense when you consider that racers are concerned with finishing first, while Mudders have to worry about [...]]]></description>
