Sponsorship Opportunities Walking Mountains Science Center is pleased to host an annual major fundraising event at our campus in Avon each summer that not only showcases the beauty of our grounds and facilities but also highlights the overwhelming support that enables us to fulfill our mission of awakening and inspiring environmental stewardship through natural science education for people of all ages. This year we welcome you to join us on Tuesday, July 7th! A Taste of Nature celebrates the goodness of life, the joy of friendship and the bounty that comes from the land around us while also raising vital support for educational programs that benefit the children, adults and families of our community. Proceeds from A Taste of Nature will be used to enhance and expand Walking Mountains’ programming so that even more people can participate and benefit from our unique, hands-on science education in the future. We invite you to become one of these valued individuals that has contributed to our success.

  • The Rockies of Colorado
    THE ROCKIES OF COLORADO THE ROCKIES OF COLORADO BY EVELIO ECHEVARRfA C. (Three illustrations: nos. 9- II) OLORADO has always been proud of its mountains and rightly so; it is often referred to in the Union as 'the mountain state', about 6o per cent of its area is mountainous, and contains fifty-four peaks over 14,ooo ft. and some three hundred over 13,000 ft. Further, its mountaineering history has some unique aspects. And yet, Colorado's mountains have been seldom mentioned in mountaineering journals; if in modern times they may have deserved a passing mention it has been because of a new route on Long's Peak. But on the whole, the Rockies of Colorado are almost unrecorded in the mountaineering world abroad. In this paper, an effort has been made to outline briefly the characteris­ tics of this area, and to review its mountaineering past; a few personal experiences are also added. The mountains of Colorado belong almost completely to the Rocky Mountain range of North America; a few outliers are sometimes mentioned as independent lesser chains, but in features and heights they are unimportant. The Rockies of Colorado are grouped into a number of ranges (see sketch-map), some of which are actually prolongations of others. Some­ what loosely and with some injustice to precise geography, they can be grouped into ten important sections. The state of Colorado is a perfect rectangle in shape; the Rockies enter into its western third from Wyoming, to the north, and split, then, into two parallel chains which unite in the centre of the state.

  • Extension of the Anaconda Metamorphic Core Complex: 40Ar
    Extension of the Anaconda metamorphic core complex: 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology and implications for Eocene tectonics of the northern Rocky Mountains and the Boulder batholith David A. Foster1, Warren C. Grice Jr.1,*, and Thomas J. Kalakay2 1DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGICAL SCIENCES, P.O. BOX 112120, UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, GAINESVILLE, FLORIDA 32611, USA 2DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY, ROCKY MOUNTAIN COLLEGE, 1511 POLY DRIVE, BILLINGS, MONTANA 59102, USA ABSTRACT Thermochronologic data defi ne the extension and exhumation history of the Anaconda metamorphic core complex and have implications for the Eocene tectonic setting of the northern Rocky Mountains. The 40Ar/ 39Ar data indicate that relatively rapid extension on the Anaconda detachment started at ca. 53 Ma and continued through ca. 39 Ma. Apatite fi ssion-track data reveal that faulting and exhumation of the foot- wall continued until ca. 27 Ma. The average displacement rate on the Anaconda detachment was on the order of 1 mm/yr between ca. 50 and 39 Ma based on the lateral gradient in mica 40Ar/39Ar ages in the direction of fault slip. The total displacement along the Anaconda detachment in Eocene and Oligocene times is estimated to be ≥25–28 km based on reconstruction of the Cretaceous Storm Lake Stock with its detached roof, which is now exposed in the Deer Lodge Valley. Extension exhumed crust from ~12 km depth and exposed middle-greenschist-facies mylonites in the easternmost part of the Anaconda complex footwall. On a regional scale, the Anaconda detachment dips east beneath the Cretaceous Boulder batholith, indicating that the batholith and the Butte mineralization were transported east in the hanging wall.

  • 1 September 19
    September 19 - 20, 2009, Saturday-Sunday Cat Lake 10591’, north 39° 47’ 54”, west 106°20’ 12” 6.6 Miles, 1995’ Eagles Nest Wilderness Arapaho National Forest, Summit County, Colorado Phil was home on leave for nearly all of September so we decided to get a hike in. His long time friend Anthony decided to go with us. We picked a fairly close destination but were open, to some extent, to a longer hiking distance. We chose Cat Lake, in the Eagles Nest Wilderness. The drive is only two hours from home: I70 west to Silverthorne, north on CO-9 to Heeney Road, Heeney Road almost to Heeney, and then a couple miles in on FS-203 to the Surprise Lake Trailhead. Heeney Road is easy to miss and we did not get slowed down quick enough to make the turn so we had to turn around to get back to it. There was a wide shoulder there, probably made so people like us could turn around there when we drove by Heeney Road. We noticed there was a wide shoulder on the other side of Heeney Road too. It must be hard to see coming from the northwest too. Surprise Lake Trailhead is just past Cataract Campground. On the way home we drove through it and learned that it is not a well-developed campground. The trailhead ‘parking lot’ is nothing more than a wider spot on the gravel road with the typical USFS Trailhead signage ... and a fee tube. There was a $5 fee to park for up to five days.

  • Falls on Rock and Snow, Stranded, Falling Rocks, Etc
    FALLS ON ROCK AND SNOW, STRANDED, FALLING ROCKS, ETC. Colorado, Various Locations Of the 11 accidents reported from Colorado this year, only one was an actual technical climbing situation. That one was a simple “fall on rock” on Red Garden Wall. This narrative is a composite of the hiker accidents in order to highlight the situations and locations about which that population needs to be reminded. The accidents involving falls on rock or snow included one in the Gore Range, three in Rocky Mountain National Park, and one on Ellingwood Point, outside of Colorado Springs. The Gore Range one is worth mentioning because it involved two fishermen in July who found themselves on a 50-degree snow slope, resulting in one of them falling about 200 meters and breaking his leg. According to the rescuers, they had never seen such miserable weather in summer. Aside from snow and hail, there were numerous thunderstorms. The victims’ destination was Bubble Lake, which meant they had to go up from Piney Lake to the pass between Mount Powell and Peak C to a pass affectionately known as Kneeknocker. A brilliant helicopter evacuation saved hundreds of rescue hours. Hikers should take note: This somewhat benevolent range, which has been used frequently by the Colorado Outward Bound School for the past 20 years as a training area, can turn quickly into a technical climbing area. There were two fatal falls in Rocky Mountain National Park. The first was a 50-plus meter fall from MacGregor Slab. Two young men stationed at Fort Carson decided to spend the weekend in the park and do some hiking and scrambling.
