There’s a dust up down valley between the bus service and local officials over the Rio Grande Trail.
An elementary school in Carbondale is looking for a new principal after she put in her resignation half-way through the year.
Should Aspen votes be asked to approve every piece of development in the city?
Meanwhile, Mark Hunt goes directly to Aspen citizens about his development plans.
Right now, there’s a locked off run on Aspen Mountain that’s only for clients of a certain business. Is that fair?
And the X Games is in town… but, watch the skies.
Joining Carolyn this week are Curtis Wackerle, Managing Editor of the Aspen Daily News, Michael Miracle, Editor of Aspen Sojourner magazine and Randy Essex, Editor of the Glenwood Post Independent.
