BEN RAMSEY The Park Record Each year, staff with the Alf Engen Ski Museum pore over documents, review testimony, MOUNTAIN DELL GOLF COURSE Mountain Dell Golf Course is open for the season. For more information call 801-582-3812 or go to www.slc-golf.com/mountain_dell_golf_course/. and confer among themselves about who is who in the ski world. Who has contributed “exemplary achievements” to the sport, and how? Who is worthy of being enshrined at one of the nation’s most-visited, and well-heeled winter sports museums? This year, the staff selected Barbara Yamada, Mel Fletcher and Gary DeSeelhorst, and on Sept. 20, the three will join the ranks of Joseph Quinney and Engen himself as inductees into the Intermountain Ski Hall of Fame. Yamada, a Parkite, was selected for multiple reasons, including the decades she spent as an instructor, coach, referee, director and official, working at the highest level of the sport. She was also on the advisory board for the Alf Engen Ski Museum and one of the first to join the museum foundation when it was started in the late 1980s. Connie Nelson, executive director of the foundation, said Yamada is a “volunteer extraordinaire.” “If you need anything to get done, you just go to Barbara,” Nelson said. miles from Canada to Mexico along the spine of the United States, with the highest section running through Colorado. Harrison was 43 years old in 1983 when he took his first step, hiking the roughly 76.8 miles from Wolf Creek Pass to Silverton in southern Colorado, mostly to fish. More than three decades later, Harrison, now 78, took his final steps on his CDT journey July 29 when he completed the trek with the final section in Montana’s Glacier National Park. With him were about a dozen of his friends and family. “That’s a story of an old guy finishing the Continental Divide,” Harrison joked. “My friend and I locked arms and finished the last 20 yards together. There was a lot of hooting and hollering. There was some people in the parking lot who came to see what the hooting and hollering was about, and when they realized that, they went off and got us two beers to celebrate.” After Harrison unknowingly finished the first section of the CDT in 1983, he didn’t step foot on another portion until 1998 when, over about a six-year span, he completed the Colorado Trail. Beginning in 2004, he hiked the 800 miles of the Arizona Trail, which isn’t officially part of the CDT, but was important for Harrison as he is from the state and still has a home in Phoenix. The final 1,000 miles all took place in Idaho and Montana, with the last section going through the Bob Marshall Wilderness in western Montana. A former triathlete and distance runner who managed large construction sites for a firm back in Arizona, hiking sections of the CDT has been a large part of Harrison’s life each summer since 1998. Now that he’s completed his journey, he doesn’t plan to slow down. He and a friend are preparing to re-explore the Colorado Trail beginning next summer. “For 20 years it’s been the summer goal and part of the reason to stay in shape was forJ this trip. I worked out hard. Wed were back here in May and June and I would climb Smuggler or Buttermilk in the evenings to try and get in shape for it,” Harrison said. “It was all good. It’s all beautiful country.” Aspen man pieces together huge hike BASIN RECREATION Basin Recreation maintains more than 145 miles of trails for hiking, biking, dog walking and more.

AUSTIN COLBERT WASATCH-CACHE NATIONAL FOREST Aspen, Colo. – Hiking the Continental Divide Trail was never the end goal for Jim Harrison. But, little by little, that’s exactly what happened. And it only took him 35 years to complete. “That’s how little goals add up to big goals,” Harrison said earlier this week from his Aspen home. “I never had any thought that I was doing this.” The CDT stretches 3,100 The Aspen Times The Heber-Kamas Ranger District maintains trails and campgrounds in the Uinta Mountains east of Kamas.
