Want to check out Colorado's newest ski area? Curious about backcountry skiing? Looking for a creative date, outing with a friend, or parent/child adventure? Bluebird Backcountry, the ski area with no lifts, is unlike any other winter experience. Their "in-bounds backcountry" has the comforts of a ski area, such as a professional ski patrol, rentals, lessons, warming huts and food, plus the adventure of heading out of bounds.

If you can ski a blue run at a resort, you're ready to experience Bluebird. And if you love black runs or already get out into the backcountry, there's plenty of terrain to explore. Whether you're an experienced uphiller or totally new to earning your turns, this auction item has you covered with 4 day passes to explore 1,200 acres of skiing and riding in a welcoming, low-risk, and COVID-aware environment.

Details: Must be used in '22-23 season. Recommended for ages 12 and up (although younger guests are welcome if they have their own backcountry touring gear). Email info@ bluebirdbackcountry.com to redeem passes.

Learn to roll in a kayak or work on advancing your skills in this private session with Whitewater Workshop.

This course is tailored for the specific skills you want to work on. For Kayakers, if you've never tried to roll before, we'll go over the basics and work through a progression to help you roll successfully from the start. If you've been working on your roll for a while and just want an instructor to fine tune your technique, I always bring a video camera to record your roll and give you new insights on ways to correct your form. For Packrafters, we can even work on wet exits, deep water entries, or even rolling! We can even do drills to simulate moving water in a low consequence (and warm) pool.

One hour private lesson, Wednesdays from 3:30-7:30pm at the Clear Creek Rec Center in Idaho Springs.

Front Range Anglers are Boulder and the Front Range's fly fishing experts! Providing the best fly fishing equipment, advice, and guide services to anglers in Boulder, the rocky mountain region, and around the world since 1982. We can help you learn how to fish everything from your local freshwater creek to far-away saltwater destinations. We are deeply committed to the preservation, conservation, and wise use of our fly fishing waters. Our staff and guides abide by and advocate the highest standards of ethical fishing. We practice catch-and-release and are always focused on minimizing any negative impact on our natural resources.

The purpose of the class is to provide the beginner or expert fly angler a framework for catching more fish. We begin with the classic two fly rig; "Dry Dropper" and explain the importance of "Drop". From there we apply that to suspended nymphing and straight-line (Euro) nymphing. From there we move to the park to teach casting, etiquette and simulate fishing. Students are provided with flies, indicators, leader, and extensive handouts that include knot and entomology summary. Rod/reels are provided, if necessary, for park work.

Evo is a ski, snowboard, skate, bike, wake & surf shop, travel base & a gathering place for the community with a cause.
