When grief left them speechless, award-winning authors Julia Park Tracey and Christine Walker turned to fiction—not just to cope, but to give their sons a voice that would live on forever.In today's episode, I'm joined by Julia Park Tracey and Christine Walker—two accomplished creatives who have transformed personal grief into meaningful art. Julia is an award-winning author, journalist, and publisher at Sibylline Press. Her historical novels The Bereaved and Silence are inspired by ancestral stories and deeply shaped by the loss of her stepson. Christine is a visual artist, designer, and writer whose novel Tap Dancing at the Bluebird, drawn from her grandmother's Depression-era diaries, was reimagined through the lens of losing her son, Quinn. Both women use their work to explore themes of loss, healing, and transformation.Throughout this episode, Julia and Christine share how their sons' deaths profoundly influenced their creative processes. Julia describes how grief deepened the emotional truth of her characters and led her to speak openly about loss, both in life and on the page. Christine talks about infusing her novel's character with Quinn's essence—his “quinescence”—to give him a lasting literary presence, and how painting helped her process pain when words failed. Together, they reflect on the healing power of storytelling and the ways creativity can offer connection, comfort, and a sense of continuity through grief.Tune in to episode 328 as Julia Park Tracey and Christine Walker share how channeling their grief into writing and art helped them honor their sons, process profound loss, and discover a lasting sense of connection, creativity, and healing.In This Episode, You Will Learn:Julia's story: Writing through historical grief and personal loss (1:14)Christine's journey: From garden journals to literary healing (6:12)Giving their sons a literary afterlife (9:40)How grief alters language and social norms (14:17)To tell or not to tell: Sharing a child's death publicly (17:24)Redefining happiness: Can we ever feel joy again?

Send us a textConnor Daly brings fresh perspective to Nashville's music scene as an Americana artist who made the leap from Virginia to Music City just eight months ago. Despite being relatively new to the area, he's already conquered some of Nashville's most revered songwriter venues, including the legendary Bluebird Cafe.The contrast between these iconic venues reveals much about Nashville's songwriting culture. As Connor explains, "The Bluebird felt very casual... like I was playing in a living room somewhere," noting how the venue's unassuming strip mall location belies its worldwide fame. Meanwhile, The Listening Room placed him under bright lights on an actual stage—both experiences offering different creative energies while sharing an audience that truly listens to the lyrics.Connor's debut album "Colors Fade" showcases his songwriting talents developed long before his Nashville move. Recorded across prestigious studios including Reba McEntire's Starstruck and the renowned Castle Studios, the album represents years of creative development. His songwriting process offers fascinating insight into how songs naturally evolve: "I like to start out with just playing chords... start humming a melody... try not to think too hard, try to leave my brain out of it and just start thinking of words and feelings that the melodies are bringing out."Nashville has introduced Connor to the collaborative art of co-writing after years of creating alone in Virginia. This adjustment highlights the relationship-like dynamics between songwriters who must find creative chemistry. His duet "Fake One Tear" with Mary Heather Hickman demonstrates how social media connections can lead to meaningful artistic collaborations in today's music industry.Ready to discover an authentic voice in Americana music?

Aujourd'hui, on parle d'un appel vidéo entre deux smartphones dont le relais a été effectué… depuis l'espace !Oui, l'opérateur de télécommunication américain AT&T et la société AST SpaceMobile ont réussi à passer un appel vidéo en utilisant un simple smartphone, et ce grâce à un satellite.Et cette avancée technologique pourrait bien changer la donne en matière de connectivité mobile.Le smartphone a tout simplement reconnu le satellite comme un réseau mobilePremièrement, cette prouesse technique repose sur les satellites BlueBird d'AST SpaceMobile, lancés en septembre 2024. L'appel vidéo a été passé depuis le Texas avec une application WhatsApp classique. Le smartphone a tout simplement reconnu le satellite comme un réseau mobile ordinaire. Vous avez bien entendu ! Aucun matériel spécifique n'a été utilisé, et il n'y a pas eu d'adaptation logicielle particulière pour réaliser cette petite prouesse.Et dans le ciel, les satellites de la société fonctionnent ensemble pour orienter et modeler électroniquement les faisceaux de communication sans fil. Il s'agit en gros de la même technologie que celle utilisée dans les tours de téléphonie cellulaire, mais dans l'espace.Mais la société reste assez discrète sur son savoir faire. "Nous utilisons une technologie brevetée pour fournir des connexions transparentes à partir de presque n'importe quel endroit" résume AST SpaceMobile.Une couverture réseau bien plus étendueDeuxièmement, cette avancée ouvre la voie à une couverture réseau bien plus étendue.Aujourd'hui, même les meilleurs opérateurs mobiles laissent derrière eux des zones blanches. Où ça ? Et bien là où les antennes terrestres ne peuvent pas être installées, pour des raisons techniques, ou bien sûr de retour sur investissement.Avec ce type de connexion satellite, il donc devient envisageable de couvrir ces zones, qu'il s'agisse de régions isolées ou de lieux touchés par des catastrophes naturelles. Il s'agit donc d'un véritable atout pour les communications d'urgence.Aller vers 120 mégabits par secondeEnfin, ce n'est qu'un début. AST SpaceMobile prévoit de lancer des satellites encore plus performants, capables d'offrir des débits allant jusqu'à 120 mégabits par seconde.De plus, plusieurs opérateurs, dont Orange en France, s'intéressent de près à cette technologie.À terme, on pourrait voir arriver un service commercial qui permettrait aux utilisateurs d'accéder à un réseau satellite directement depuis leur smartphone, et ce sans passer par un équipement spécialisé.Le ZD Tech est sur toutes les plateformes de podcast !

Have you ever considered that your business name might already belong to someone else?  In this episode of Life After Corporate, host Deb Boulanger sits down with trademark attorney Lauren Bercuson to uncover the costly mistakes entrepreneurs make when it comes to trademarks. Lauren explains why securing a URL or registering your business name isn't enough to protect your brand, and she shares the crucial steps every business owner should take before launching. From the risks of skipping a comprehensive trademark search to the dangers of infringing on an existing mark, she breaks down the legal nuances that could make or break your brand. Whether you're naming a new business, launching a product, or starting a podcast, this episode is packed with must-know strategies to avoid legal headaches and financial losses.  Think your brand is safe? You might want to think again.    [00:05- 07:10] Common Misconceptions About Brand Protection   Owning a URL does not grant legal protection for a brand name. Business entity registration does not equate to trademark protection. Trademarking with the USPTO provides a legal defense against name disputes. A registered trademark is policed by the USPTO, preventing similar names from registering.     [07:11 -14:33] The Limits of DIY Trademark Searches   Searching the USPTO database is not enough to confirm trademark availability. Similar-sounding or phonetically equivalent names can still cause conflicts. Google searches do not account for common law trademarks. Trademark attorneys understand nuances like foreign equivalency and industry overlap.     [14:34 - 29:38]  The Trademark Registration Process     A comprehensive search determines if a name is legally available. The USPTO review process takes 8-10 months. Trademark registration strengthens brand identity and legal protection. Businesses with trademarks have an advantage in negotiations and funding.   [22:39 - 30:53] Why Podcasts and Digital Brands Should Be Trademarked   Trademarking a podcast prevents others from using a similar name. Even non-monetized podcasts benefit from brand protection. Legal conflicts arise when similar show names confuse audiences. Entrepreneurs should treat digital assets as valuable business properties.   Mentioned Resources USPTO.gov – The official database for trademark searches.

There was a high point this week for employees riding the rollercoaster that is currently the FDA, as 300 recently fired employees are reportedly being asked to return. This could serve to boost spirits at the agency, which is reeling from unpredictable and seemingly ‘indiscriminate' layoffs—and low morale as a result.   Trump made additional waves over the weekend, threatening to enact tariffs on the largest pharmaceutical companies—unless they relocate their manufacturing operations to the U.S. And the early impacts of the new administration continue to be felt, as the CDC's vaccine advisory board postponed its first meeting of 2025—just a week after RFK Jr.'s confirmation as HHS secretary.   In weight loss news, the Outsourcing Facilities Association (OFA), which represents compounders, is suing the FDA after the agency declared an end to the shortage of semaglutide, marketed by Novo Nordisk as Ozempic and Wegovy. This followed a similar OFA lawsuit last fall, filed after the FDA removed Eli Lilly's tirzepatide— Zepbound and Mounjaro—from its shortage list. In a possible attempt to protect Zepbound from compounder competition, Lilly announced Tuesday that it will expand single dose vials options of the blockbuster weight loss drug at a reduced price. This all comes as a new study compares physician wishlists with investment in the obesity space—and reveals key indicators for drug developers.  And it's been a good news/bad news kind of week in gene therapy, as Pfizer discontinued hemophilia B drug Beqvez worldwide, Regeneron reported more positive data from its gene therapy for genetic deafness and, facing a cash crunch, bluebird bio elected to go private in an acquisition by global investment firms Carlyle and SK Capital Partners.   Finally, let us leave you with a ghost story—the story of so-called “ghost assets” that have found a new home, and a new purpose.  

Good morning from Pharma and Biotech daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in Pharma and Biotech world.President Trump has threatened big pharma with tariffs unless they reshore manufacturing. He also refused to promise pharma executives that he would hamstring the IRA's drug negotiation program. RNA editing is fueling hope for rare and common diseases, with experts calling for more efficiency and breakthroughs in delivery methods. The FDA is rehiring scientists after Trump's firing spree, with around 300 staff being asked to return. Vertex's Journavx is changing the pain treatment landscape, but opioids are still prevalent. Trilink offers mRNA designs for reliable performance in various applications. In other news, a small Harvard start-up is fighting antimicrobial resistance, and OpinionAI is focusing on small molecules in the I&I space. Bluebird is going private, Mirum receives FDA approval for a rare disease, and PhRMA is meeting with Trump on various policies.Vertex's Journavx is changing the landscape of pain treatment, but opioids are still widely used. Non-opioid pain therapies, including Journavx, have been approved by the FDA, but their uptake remains uncertain. Meanwhile, RNA editing is showing promise in clinical trials for treating rare and common diseases, and artificial intelligence is making small molecules more attractive in the inflammatory and immunology disease space. The FDA is facing low morale after job cuts under Trump's administration, raising concerns about delays in new medicine approvals. Additional news includes Sanofi challenging Novo with an FDA approval for a biosimilar, FDA rare cancer approvals, and Lead passing on an option for Arcus' cancer drug.Thank you for tuning in to Pharma and Biotech Daily.

Carl Anderson is a singer-songwriter from Virginia. His song swirls around like that plastic bag in the scene from American Beauty. A surprising unassuming clandestine charm that catches you unawares and then settles at your feet until the wind kicks up again. I have been a fan of his ever since we played a show together at the Bluebird in Nashville maybe like seven years ago. The way he sings is like no one else. You have to hear it for yourself (in this episode, you will).I'm so excited he's part of this show we're doing in a few weeks, at the Five Spot in East Nashville. Saturday February 15th. Carl is sharing some music, as is next week's guest, Abby Jane. Then I'll play a set with my new band, and then we're going to screen a world-premiere of the music video for my new song Meet Me at the End of the World, directed by MCP alum Mila Vilaplana. Throughout, Ryan Rado, who was on the pod a few weeks ago, is doing some live immersive painting. It's gonna be a great night and I'm very excited. If you live in Nashville here is a link for tickets.I've started making a new effort here on the podcast, which is to insert chapters into the YouTube video. For you it makes it easier to see the contours and compartments of the conversation (see below). For me it requires I listen back through the entire talk, which makes me reflect on what we discussed and whether it was worth it. So I know what I'm saying when I say this was a truly insightful and dare I say FUN conversation with a person for whom art's calling occupies a central position. Carl is serious about songmaking and unserious about its purpose. That is to say he holds the sacred cows lightly in his hand and only pets them when they ask. I am reminded that so much of the value in any conversation lay in its style, and not just its substance.We play a song together, his original, Separate Ways. Listen to the way he sings.Carl talks about what got him started on the creative path, his love for dancing, the pleasure of watching bad acting, Bob Dylan as the original troll, his in-and-out habit of fitness and its relationship to creativity, the strange and healthy beauty of having a job outside the industry.I share a little as well. What happened when I moved to Nashville twenty years ago. Why I burst into tears last week on my couch watching Fred Again's Tiny Desk Concert. How being yourself gives everyone else permission to be themselves too.Carl Anderson is a real one of one. I hope this conversation makes you want to finish the song you're working on.

DIGGIN DA VIBE - PLOI with Bluebird 01.08.25 | VISLA FM by VISLA

Hi Friends! We have had issues with the sound tech in the studio - this is the last episode with this slight issue and it has now been resolved moving forward. I thought it was best to release the episodes anyway, however frustrating. All fixed now! :) This week we are discussing healing from bullying and gaslighting. A topic I am very well versed in, having suffered through bullying in my younger years, in adult relationships and even at work. This episode covers how to heal from the negative self perception bullying can create, along with how to unwind yourself from the gaslighting or victimhood that bullies often use as a tactic. You are more than what others have said to you, and you deserve to be kind to yourself. Together, I hope we can overcome. Much love - until next week, Cass (15:50) Reclaiming your power (17:55) Acknowledge the Experience (21:29) Seek Support (26:23) Rebuild Self-Worth (28:12) Set Boundaries (33:30) Reclaim Your Voice (36:36) Empower Your Body and Mind (38:47) Redefine the Narrative (40:46) Affirm Your Worth Daily (43:42) Manifesting your desired reality (48:30) ”Bluebird” by Charles Bukowski Affirmations for Manifesting a Bully-Free Life “I radiate confidence, and I attract kindness." “I am worthy of respect and surround myself with positive people.” “My boundaries protect my peace and energy.” “I am creating a life filled with joy, safety, and empowerment.” “I release all negativity and open myself to uplifting experiences.”

Today Megan Tady is back with us to discuss her new hilarious and heartwarming new novel from Zibby Books, Bluebird Day -about  a mother-daughter celebrity skiing duo who must learn to manage the bumps in their own estranged relationship when an avalanche in a dreamy Swiss village forces them together.

"Unveiling MK-Ultra: Joe Rogan's Rare Deep Dive into the CIA's Mind Control Experiments"Prepare to unravel the chilling truths behind one of the CIA's most secretive and controversial programs: MKUltra. In this rare and riveting episode, Joe Rogan and a top-tier investigator peel back the layers of conspiracy, control, and corruption that defined this covert operation. From its origins as "Bluebird" to its evolution into a mind-bending experiment on unwitting citizens, MKUltra sought to engineer assassins, erase memories, and reshape human behavior without consent. Discover how a network of safe houses, rogue scientists like Dr. Louis "Jolly" West, and chilling connections to figures like Charles Manson created a blueprint for psychological manipulation.This episode dives deep into never-before-heard details, including the mysterious Jimmy Shaver case, the controversial Operation Midnight Climax, and how these experiments sought to control minds in ways that remain shocking today. Featuring firsthand insights, hidden correspondence, and investigative discoveries, this podcast challenges what we think we know about MKUltra. Whether you're a history buff, a conspiracy enthusiast, or someone seeking to uncover hidden truths, this is an episode you can't afford to miss. Tune in and join the conversation—this story is far more than a conspiracy; it's a revelation.Origins of MKUltra (00:00–00:39)MKUltra started as "Bluebird" in 1948, became "Artichoke," and eventually evolved into MKUltra in 1952.It was a CIA mind control program aimed at manipulating human behavior without their knowledge.Objectives of MKUltra (00:39–01:18)The program sought to create "hypnoprogrammed assassins," popularly termed "Manchurian candidates," who could commit acts like murder without memory of their programming.Other goals included training couriers to deliver messages with no memory of their missions.Exposure of MKUltra (01:51–02:26)MKUltra's existence came to light through hearings in the 1970s (Rockefeller Commission, Church Hearings).CIA officials Richard Helms and Dr. Sidney Gottlieb destroyed most records in 1973.Safe Houses and Experiments (02:26–03:04)Experiments took place in "safe houses" disguised as brothels or communes, where unsuspecting people were dosed with drugs like LSD.Dr. Louis "Jolly" West, a key researcher, conducted covert experiments.Connections to Charles Manson (03:44–04:46)Dr. West operated in the same area and time as Charles Manson's rise. Documents suggest his methods aligned with MKUltra objectives.Graduate students working for West reported being unaware of the true nature of their research, suspecting a hidden agenda.Operation Midnight Climax (05:59–06:30)A CIA project involving brothel setups where subjects were dosed with LSD and observed without their knowledge.Jimmy Shaver Case (12:42–15:12)A highly controversial incident involving Airman Jimmy Shaver, who murdered a child but claimed no memory of the crime.Dr. West was involved as Shaver's psychiatrist and reportedly manipulated his memories.False Memories and Brainwashing (16:23–17:32)Dr. West claimed to have developed techniques to replace true memories with false ones, a primary MKUltra goal.The CIA officially denied the success of such experiments during hearings, though evidence suggests otherwise.Speculation and Ethical Concerns (17:32–19:20)MKUltra's experiments often went awry, with unintended consequences like Shaver's case.Many records were destroyed, leaving gaps in understanding the full extent of these operations.Legacy and Modern Implications (19:20–20:33)Dr. West and other psychiatrists were involved in deprogramming returning Korean War POWs, raising questions about whether the U.S. manipulated these soldiers.The lack of accountability and transparency continues to fuel speculation about the true scope of MKUltra.

You would want to find a reliable snow pocket, preferably at elevation. You would want a location close to a major highway, with no access road drama. There should be a large population base nearby. Then you would build a hill with a great variety of green, blue, and black runs, and bunch them together in little ability-based kingdoms. The ski area would be big but not too big. It would be tall but not too tall. It would snow often, but rarely too much. It would challenge you without trying to kill you. You may include some pastoral touches, like tree islands to break up the interstate-wide groomers. You'd want to groom a lot but not too much. You'd want some hella good terrain parks. You'd want to end up with something pretty similar to Copper Mountain.Because Copper is what we end up with when we lop off all the tryhard marketing meth that attempts to make ski resorts more than what they are. Copper is not Gladiator on skis, you against the notorious Batshit Chutes. But Copper is not one big groomer, either. Copper is not fur shawls in the hotel lobby. But Copper is also not duct tape around a pants leg. Copper does not serve passenger pigeon eggs in its mountaintop eateries. But Copper is also not frozen burritos and a plastic sleeve of powdered donuts. Copper is not angry, or haughty, or cloying, or righteous, or overwrought. Copper does not call you “Sir.” Copper fixes your refrigerator without having to come back with another part. Copper, quietly and without a lot of hassle, just works.What we talked aboutThe new Timberline six-pack chairlift; why Copper upgraded T-Rex before the mountain's much older lifts; how much better a 2024 detachable lift is from a 1994 detachable lift; why Copper didn't sell the lift to another ski area; that one summer that Copper installed two gargantuan frontside lifts; why new chairlift installations are so challenging; Leitner-Poma; the challenges of installing mid-mountain versus base-area lifts; installing American Eagle, American Flyer, and Three Bears; how Copper quietly offered skiing for 12 consecutive months from October 2023 to September 2024, despite an official May closing date; whether year-round skiing will become an official Copper activity; why Copper builds its halfpipe entirely from snow each season rather than constructing an earthwork base; The Athlete's Mountain; why Copper continues to build bigger and more advanced terrain parks even as many big mountains back out of the space; Woodward parks; how many crew members and snowcats Copper devotes to maintaining its enormous terrain park network; why the Union Creek high-speed quad became Woodward Express; why Copper doesn't compete with Keystone and A-Basin as first-to-open for the skiing public; Copper's World Cup ambitions; how to get a job running a ski resort when you've never worked at a ski resort; why it's so important for a ski area manager to ski every day; counting ski days; mad love for ski areas; potential candidates for lift replacements; how to get a ski trail named after you; retrofitting old lifts with safety bars; expansion opportunities; $99 Thursday lift tickets and whether that program could expand to additional weekdays; Copper's amazing season pass benefit; why Copper Mountain access is unlimited with no blackouts on the Ikon and Ikon Base passes; and why Copper continues to sell its own season pass that doesn't cost much less than the Ikon Base Pass.  Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewCopper is a curious bloke. Copper sits within 30 minutes of four Vail Resorts, one of the toughest draws in North American skiing. So Copper is an unlimited-access member of Alterra's Ikon Pass even though Copper is not owned by Alterra. Copper also sells its own season pass that only costs $60 less than an Ikon Base Pass. Copper sells $99 lift tickets on Thursdays, but $264 walk-up lift tickets if you show up on certain Wednesdays or Fridays. Copper sits atop I-70, observing the antlines of inbound vehicles and saying “I'm flattered.” Copper greets its guests with a halfpipe that could launch an intercontinental ballistic missile. Copper just offered year-round skiing and didn't bother bragging about it until the whole thing was over. Copper lets you cut the line. Copper has quietly become some ninjitsu November training ground for the global ski-race community. Copper is parked in the middle of the most important ski county in the most important ski state in America.If anything is happening in skiing, Copper is dealing with it: expensive lift tickets, cheap season passes, easy access that may be a little too easy, ferocious competition in every direction. Because of its naturally divided terrain, ordered black to green as you sweep west across the mountain, Copper is often referred to as a nearly perfect ski area. And it is. But because of where it is and what it's chosen to become, the resort also happens to be the perfect thermometer for taking skiing's temperature. How we doing up there past 10,000? What's your story? What makes you special? Why should I drive past Keystone to ski here? Why shouldn't I just keep driving 20 minutes to Vail instead? Why, I'm asking, do you even exist?What I got wrongI said that certain old chairlifts had not yet been retrofit with safety bars; Lyman clarified that Copper had in fact updated the carriers on all of those lifts.Why you should ski Copper MountainHere are some things I remember about skiing Copper Mountain in 1995:* Riding a high-speed quad. Probably American Flyer but I can't say for sure. Four of us on the lift. My buddy Andy and two middle-aged fellows of indeterminant provenance. “My cat sleeps 22 hours a day and can catch a bird out of the air,” one says to the other. And I've never been able to stop thinking about the truth of that and how it's possible.* My room at the Foxpine Inn came with an underground parking space, which I declined to use until a New Year's snowstorm buried my poor little four-cylinder Ford Probe beneath an igloo. Rather than clean the car off, I leaned my head out the window and drove down the ramp to my parking spot below. Then all the snow melted. Easiest snow removal job ever.* Near the terminus of the long-gone B lift, a double chair displaced by Super Bee, a lightly treed knoll stood above the trails. I watched, awestruck, as a skier materialized from the forest depths above and trenched the newfallen snow and blasted down the fall-line with superhero poise and ease.* My first attempted powder turn, three minutes later, ended in a yardsale. This was in the flat just off of the lift unload. That ended up being a very long run.Modern Copper is more polished, better-lifted, more expensive, better known than the version I encountered on my first western ski trip 29 years ago. There's more ski terrain and a little pedestrian base village. I'm not certain that two eighteen-year-olds could still afford a room at the base of the chairlifts (Foxpine rates are not listed online). But what struck me on a return visit last winter, as much as the six-packs and the terrain parks and the base village that used to be a parking lot was how much Copper, despite all that investment, had retained a coziness that still makes it feel more like a ski area than a ski resort.Some of this humility, I suppose, is anchored in the mountain's profile. Copper doesn't have Breck's big exposed peaks or Vail's endless bowls or Beaver Creek's Grey Poupon trim. Copper doesn't give you cookies or promise you The Experience of a Lifetime. The mountain's core lifts are fast and modern, but Copper runs nearly as many fixed-grip chairs (9) as Vail (3), Beaver Creek (3), and Keystone (4), combined (10).  But it works. Rather wonderfully, really. Go see for yourself.Podcast NotesOn Copper's masterplanCopper's most recent comprehensive Forest Service masterplan dates to 2011. A 2015 addendum focused mostly on summer activities. Here's an overview of what the 2011 plan imagined:A 2021 addendum added a new trail, which we discuss on the pod:On Copper Mountain's halfpipeI mean this thing is just so damn extra:On Summit County ski areas by sizeThe four Summit County ski areas compare favorably to one another, stats-wise. I'm going to go ahead and throw Loveland in there as an honorary member, since it's like two feet from Summit County:On the Slopes AppBeing Stats Tracker Bro, I am a loyalist to the Slopes app, which recently updated their static map with a zoomable version:Slopes is also handy in real-time, when I want to ensure that I've hit every trail on a mountain. Here's my map from Giants Ridge, Minnesota last winter (the big unskied trails in the middle were closed for racing):On SilvertonWhile I would expect Elvis to rise from the dead before we see another Breckenridge-style megaresort built in Colorado, developers have had some luck creating low-impact, low-infrastructure ski areas. The now-defunct Bluebird Backcountry, near Steamboat, operated with no lifts on private land. Silverton, in the state's southwest corner, operates out of a small parcel of private land and runs one double chair, which in turn opens up huge swaths of land under permit from the Bureau of Land Management. Any future big-mountain western developments will likely hinge on some version of a Silverton/Bluebird model. Here's Silverton's trailmap:And here's Bluebird's:On expansions Colorado ski areas have had great success expanding existing operations in recent years. Since 2012, nine large expansions have added more than 3,000 acres of high-quality terrain to the state's ski resorts. That's the equivalent of opening another Breckenridge, without all the outrage.On Snowbird's Freeloader PassCopper's adult season pass includes a free season pass for one child up to 15 years old. Sister resort Snowbird one-upped them last year by rolling out the same benefit and raising the age to 18. Lyman and I discuss Snowbird's move, and whether it will inspire a similar deal at Copper.On Copper's unlimited Ikon Pass accessOne of the strangest alliances in all of Megapass-dom is Copper's status as a stowaway unlimited Ikon Pass partner. Alterra has transformed the Ikon Pass into a season pass for all of its owned mountains except for Deer Valley and Arapahoe Basin, but it's also a de facto season pass for Powdr-owned Copper and Eldora. To confuse things further, Copper sells its own season pass that isn't much less expensive than an Ikon Base Pass. We discuss this whole dynamic on the pod, but here's where Alterra-owned mountains sit with Ikon Pass access, with Eldora and Copper slotted in for comparison:On Powdr owning Eldora “at least for now”Park City-based Powdr has owned Eldora, just under two hours northeast of Copper, since 2016. In August, the company announced that it had sold its Killington and Pico resorts to a group of local Vermont investors, and would soon put Eldora – along with Mt. Bachelor, Oregon and Silver Star, B.C. – up for sale as well.The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.
