As Parkites, we’ve come to love the mountain life. From the morning shadows of our spacious valley, we relish the first splash of light that paints an arc on the ridgeline of the Wasatch Back. We bask in the warmth of the sun as it unveils a curtain across the aspen-lined flanks that extend to our town below. Park City is a pretty amazing place. Most of us have made the choice to make this our home. We are active and engaged, finding ways to utilize our mountains and valleys every day. Dropping in to a powder bowl off Pine Cone Ridge. Pushing our mountain bikes up Armstrong. Hiking with our dogs through the enchanted forest on Rob’s Trail. Clipping in for a 50-mile ride through Kamas and Oakley. I grew up in the rolling, glaciated hills of Wisconsin. My first time on skis was at 18, whisking down runs that extended across a ridgeline at tiny Alpine Valley. I made my move into the ski industry at tiny Mt. Telemark, where Billy Kidd once said that the lodge was bigger than the 370-foot vertical ski hill. We all think back to our first experience in the mountains. Mine started with a pile of printed ski resort brochures from Colorado and Utah spread across my living room floor. I was planning for my first trip to ski out West. It was magical. As I opened trail map after trail map, I was suddenly struck by the rows and rows of ski runs coming off the ridge at Vail. From the fabled Riva Ridge to the frontside runs around Avanti and on to Born Free, it looked like paradise to me. There’s a mystique to the mountain life. Mountains are exhilarating to us, bringing a special sense of engagement to our life. They provide a different view or perspective, as well as a sense of solitude.” There’s a mystique to the mountain life. Mountains are exhilarating to us, bringing a special sense of engagement to our life. They provide a different view or perspective, as well as a sense of solitude. Ridgelines are the connectors, transporting us from peak to peak with an ever-changing view on the landscape below. With my new weekly Ridgelines column in The Park Record, I’ll take you with me up on the mountain. We’ll explore one of the most impressive ski resort ridgelines in the world from Jordanelle to Condor. We’ll drop into powder lines through X Files or little-known Elk Ridge. I’ll take you on a craft beer tour of the mountain and provide insider intel on how to maximize your ski day. And we will journey back in time to the glory days of the 19th century silver mining boom that built the character and culture of our town. If you know me, you know that I’m the glass-half-full kinda guy. Ridgelines will showcase the positives of the mountain life and how to maximize your enjoyment of our mountains. I hope you’ll join me for the ride. See you up on the mountain. Wisconsin native Tom Kelly landed in Park City in 1988 (still working on becoming an official local). A recently inducted member of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame, he is most known for his role as lead spokesperson for Olympic skiing and snowboarding for over 30 years until his retirement in 2018. This will be his 50th season on skis, typically logging 60 days in recent years.

ASPEN, Colo. Aspen Skiing Co. will honor Klaus Obermeyer, who turned 100 Monday, with a party at the Buttermilk opening on Saturday. The party will be held at 1 p.m. at Bumps restaurant at the base. “Guests are encouraged to wear their retro Obermeyer ski outfits, enjoy complimentary apple strudel and celebrate another great opening day at Buttermilk,” Skico said in a notice. “The celebration will also include a special presentation from Aspen Snowmass CEO Mike Kaplan. The man who has meant so much to Aspen for so long received a fitting tribute Monday afternoon. Hundreds of people packed the Hotel Jerome ballroom for Klaus Obermeyer’s 100th birthday party. Women showered him with kisses. Men gave hearty handshakes. Tons of people took selfies with Obermeyer, one of the original ski instructors on Aspen Mountain after he arrived in 1947, inventor of numerous pieces of ski gear and founder of skiwear manufacturer Sport Obermeyer. A Bavarian band, alpenhorns and all, set the mood with music. German food, beer and, of course, apple strudel with whipped cream was served. Aspen Mayor Torre designated Dec. 2 Klaus Obermeyer Day. Klaus’ son Wally Obermeyer gave a touching homage. The man of the hour unleashed a righteous yodel and wore a sash saying “Klaus 100 years young.” “There’s something about you, Dad, when you walk in the room you light it up,” Wally said in his short speech. Klaus has hosted small birthday parties for years, sometimes at Aspen Mountain but mostly at his company’s headquarters at the Aspen Business Center. But the spe- KELSEY BRUNNER/THE ASPEN TIMES Aspen icon Klaus Obermeyer celebrated his 100th birthday on Dec. 2 at the Hotel Jerome. As he walked into the party, Amy Skaling, left, a representative for Obermeyer’s company for 29 years, kissed him on the cheek. cial birthday required a special location. The party started with a private gathering at 1 p.m. There were lots of nice touches, like scores of postcard-type historic photos such as Klaus skiing powder on Aspen Mountain in 1958 lining the tables and patches and baseball hats that said “Live Like Klaus.” There were posters of historic photos and video playing that highlighted Klaus through the decades. Hundreds of well-wishers came out Monday to help Klaus Obermeyer celebrate his 100th birthday with a party at Aspen’s Hotel Jerome. When the man of honor arrived at 2:09, the bandleader announced, “Klaus is in the house” to an eruption of applause. The band then led singing of “Happy Birthday” in English and German. Klaus responded with two thumbs up. After that, he was the constant center of attention at a party that opened to the public at 3 p.m. and continued until 5. One of the more stirring moments was when Klaus and Wally took to a small stage and thanked everyone for attending. The audience included everyone from longtime friends from throughout the Roaring Fork Valley to representatives of companies that supply materials to Sport Obermeyer to relatives from Germany. Former employees reunited for the special occasion. “It’s like a blast from the past with the design team,” Wally said. Wally credited three major qualities to contributing to his dad’s longevity. One was having such wonderful people in his life. He singled out Nome Obermeyer, his stepmother and Klaus’ longtime wife. Another characteristic is, “Being mission-minded instead of money-minded,” Wally said. Klaus often told him a person can only have one steak dinner at night. The third quality is controlling your choice of perception. As everyone who knows Klaus or even meets him anew can attest, his outlook is always positive. “Thank you on behalf of the entire community for the example you set,” Wally told his dad. Klaus shared a couple of stories and repeated his frequent refrain that Aspen is the best ski town in the world. But clearly, he wanted to be off the stage and sitting at a table in the middle of the ballroom, where he could mingle with a steady stream of well-wishers. Klaus previously has said his next goal is to reach 103 years of age, which will mark a century on skis. “Aspen is great,” Klaus told the crowd on Monday. “And the downside of greatness is it’s hard to find a parking space. But everything worked well from the very beginning, and now look at all these nice people. Thank you for being here.” |
