Nestes últimos dias, a África do Sul está a ser abalada por uma nova onda de xenofobia, com grupos de cidadãos sul-africanos a atacarem imigrantes, queimarem as suas casas ou os seus comércios. Independentemente de estarem em situação legal ou não, os estrangeiros são acusados por estes grupos de "roubarem os empregos" dos nacionais, num contexto de grave crise social e económica no país, nomeadamente com uma taxa de desemprego de cerca de 32%. Depois de pelo menos nove moçambicanos terem morrido nas violências xenófobas, várias centenas de moçambicanos residentes no país têm estado a fugir da África do Sul, com algum apoio por parte de Maputo. A Nigéria, o Gana e o Maláui também estão a organizar o regresso a casa dos seus cidadãos expatriados na África do Sul. Uma situação que o executivo sul-africano lamenta mas perante a qual parece algo impotente, senão mesmo "complacente", acusam certos governos africanos mais críticos. A nível interno, em ano de eleições locais, a coligação governamental faz frente a sectores de opinião que tentam ganhar visibilidade a pretexto desta nova crise, considera André Thomashausen, professor emérito de direito internacional e constitucional da Universidade da África do Sul, em Pretória. O universitário refere todavia acreditar que este fenómeno não vai durar, por não ter -do seu ponto de vista- nenhum alicerce popular. RFI: Como é que analisa a situação vigente nestes últimos dias na África do Sul? André Thomashausen: Um aspecto deve ser considerado é o aspecto da política interna da África do Sul, em que o partido da esquerda, da minoria, do antigo presidente Zuma, o partido MK ("Umkhonto we Sizwe", partido "Lança da Nação) está a aproveitar esta onda da xenofobia e está a fomentar, a instigar, esta xenofobia para pressionar a coligação que está a governar, que é o ANC, com o partido da Aliança Democrática. É assim, infelizmente. Muito tragicamente, este assunto não é completamente inocente e possivelmente não teria acontecido este ataque de xenofobia se não tivesse sido instigado. E temos uma tradição disso. Sempre quando uma minoria política decide afastar um governo, de repente aparecem ataques xenófobos. Foi assim na altura em que o Jacob Zuma quis substituir o governo do Thabo Mbeki, em 2007. De repente, houve ataques xenófobos. E foi assim, de volta, no fim da era do Zuma, em que novamente isso estalou. Talvez o único aspecto positivo é que esta crise não vai durar tanto tempo. E penso que os espíritos vão novamente acalmar. RFI: Há cerca de uma semana que isto dura. O que é que o leva a crer que vai haver uma acalmia? André Thomashausen: Bom, existe sempre uma solidariedade entre os mais pobres, entre os mais miseráveis. E as vítimas da xenofobia é gente muito pobre e gente que não tem vida estável, que não tem emprego formal e normalmente existe uma solidariedade africana. Na tradição, nas culturas africanas, muito raramente aparece um ódio entre grupos ou um ódio de raça ou ódio nacionalista. Porque as culturas estão todas interligadas. Eu duvido muito que esta vaga seja uma expressão de um sentimento popular alargado. Na maior parte dos casos que temos visto, há uma mão organizadora, há grupos de choque que aparecem num sítio, aparecem com autocarros a transportá-los. Alguém está a organizar esses transportes e a pagar esses transportes. É um bocado um assunto de segurança pública e de segurança do Estado que está aqui a falhar. E assim vamos esperando que venha a faltar o apoio para esta xenofobia. O verdadeiro apoio popular não existe. É gente alheia que aparece num sítio que não vive lá e de repente atacam os que são estrangeiros, os que falam com um sotaque diferente ou que, pela aparência, não pertencem. Um problema dentro da xenofobia, isolado e diferente, é a imigração ilegal que temos experimentado e que temos visto oriunda da Somália e do Sudão, países bastante afastados. São para aí uns 8 mil quilómetros de distância, daqui para o Sudão e para a Somália. E esta migração, essa sim, está a provocar ódio e está a provocar uma resistência forte entre a população que aqui na África do Sul normalmente não é muçulmana e rejeita a cultura desses migrantes. RFI: No começo da nossa conversa, mencionou que há certos sectores políticos que tiram proveito desta situação. Tem aparecido muito o nome de uma organização, a "March and March". O que é que se poderia dizer sobre esta organização e o interesse que teria também em movimentar a multidão contra os imigrantes? André Thomashausen: Bom, mais uma vez, é um rótulo que aparece subitamente, que não tem antecedentes. Não se podem identificar os líderes, gente desconhecida e, no meu ponto de ver, oportunista. Tal como nos anos 30, na Alemanha, houve uma organização nazi que fomentou o ódio contra os judeus, para assim virem a ser notórios e intimidar, provocar a instabilidade. Eu vejo aqui essas organizações também como sendo organizações um bocado fantoches, que não têm uma base popular, não têm milhares de membros ou aderentes. São completamente transparentes. E mais uma vez, eu estou a ver aqui um oportunismo político trágico de tentar provocar uma dificuldade ao governo por gente que falhou nas eleições, que não conseguiu reunir uma maioria de votos e assim, agora estão a tentar destabilizar o país através desta vaga. RFI: Certos países, nomeadamente a Nigéria ou Gana, que têm alguns dos seus expatriados na África do Sul, acusaram o governo de Pretória de ser algo complacente com esta onda de xenofobia que, no fundo, poderia ser interpretada também como uma forma de camuflar as suas próprias incapacidades em gerir questões como a economia, a educação e a saúde. André Thomashausen: Certo. Só que, na realidade, este governo, esta administração, é uma administração que está a sobreviver mal num contexto de Estado já falhado, em que as forças da ordem, a polícia e e Forças Armadas não têm nem sequer a mínima capacidade. Não há veículos e onde há veículos não há verbas para o combustível. Há um elevado sistema de corrupção na polícia e nas Forças Armadas. As Forças Armadas já foram mobilizadas na Província do Cabo para tentar limitar, tentar reduzir a vaga de assassinatos entre mafiosos, entre bandos, criminosos, traficantes de droga e de pessoas. E assim, eu acho que não é por falta de vontade, mas é por falta de capacidade que o governo está assim passivo. Está assim, num papel de observador em que o Presidente Ramaphosa lamenta muito a xenofobia, mas não tem meios realmente para uma estratégia através da qual poderia prender e imobilizar aqueles que estão a instigar esses ataques aos migrantes e refugiados e, evidentemente, também uma percentagem muito elevada de migrantes ilegais. Mas, na realidade, a economia está a empregar essa gente. E isso também tem a ver com a alta taxa de sindicalização dos trabalhadores sul-africanos, que provocam um nível do preço da mão-de-obra muito elevado. E isso cria uma uma atractividade ao emprego dos estrangeiros que não estão sindicalizados. É tudo uma mistura de situações que deveriam ser reformadas, que deveriam ser consideradas, mas só que este actual governo é um governo de crise e é um governo que não tem a capacidade para reagir. RFI: Estamos em ano de eleições autárquicas. Vão acontecer a 4 de Novembro. Pensa que isto também joga nesta crise? André Thomashausen: Absolutamente. É uma maneira de tentar animar os eleitores, tentar atirar culpas aos migrantes, culpas pela falta de prestação de serviços, pelo facto de que 90% das municipalidades estão tecnicamente falidas e já não têm capacidade para garantir o abastecimento de água potável ou a manutenção dos sistemas de esgotos ou transportes públicos, o sistema escolar primário, o sistema de assistência médica básica e assim, é um bode expiatório, acusar a presença dos estrangeiros. E isso tudo entra nas estratégias. Estas eleições vão decididamente reduzir o apoio ao ANC. Vão demonstrar a queda dramática da confiança neste partido da libertação. Mas é normal que depois de 30 anos da grande transferência, em 1990, o partido libertador, com a sua legitimidade histórica, venha a ser desafiado. RFI: Está a dizer que o ANC poderia perder o leme. Mas para que a formação? André Thomashausen: Vai beneficiar a Aliança Democrática, que é um partido liberal do centro-esquerda, completamente multicultural, que tenta fazer renascer o ideal do Nelson Mandela de uma "Nação arco-íris". Há muitos, muitos eleitores tradicionais do ANC que desta vez vão votar na Aliança Democrática. O partido está a apostar nesta oportunidade. E, aliás, está convencido que com a sua antiga presidente, Helen Zille, vão ganhar as eleições em Joanesburgo, a maior metrópole aqui na África do Sul.
Hello and welcome back to All One Song, a Neil Young podcast presented by Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions with your host Tyler Wilcox. We've covered a lot of Shakey ground so far during seasons one and two, leaping from decade to decade, from era to era, from album to album. It's easy to do when you're dealing with a body of work that is so vast, spanning 60 years now. But somehow, we've yet to talk about any songs from Zuma. Neil fanatics — like our hero — can be an ornery, contrarian bunch. It would be tough to get them to agree on anything. But I think I'm safe in saying that everyone loves Zuma. If you don't … well, you're crazier than Crazy Horse. Here to help us unpack "Barstool Blues," one of the album's high points, is Matt Sweeney. Sweeney is one of those guys who is impossible to sum up. He's a musician who has been a part of so many great bands, projects and records over the years — Superwolf, Chavez, Guided by Voices, the Hard Quartet, Iggy Pop, Current 93, Cass McCombs, Andrew WK … the list goes on and on. He's a consummate collaborator, perhaps the only person alive to have played with both Johnny Cash and Endless Boogie…with both the Dixie Chicks and Baby Dee … with both Adele and Six Organs of Admittance. Matt also hosts the excellent Guitar Moves web series, which gets into fascinating discussions with a wide array of guitarists. Definitely dial it up when you get a chance; even if you don't play, it is always a blast. So pull up a stool and belly up, here's Matt Sweeney on "Barstool Blues."

The possible impeachment of President Cyril Ramaphosa seems one step closer with the composition of a “very diverse, multi-party” Impeachment Committee, but the President is fighting back with a court bid to try and stop the inquiry. In this interview with Chris Steyn, Political Commentator Solly Moeng describes how the President is “kicking the ball down the road” and “trying to buy more time” whilst facing “people who want him to be removed because maybe it'll advance their chances towards power through coalitions”, while “others want him to be removed because what he did is wrong”. As for Deputy President Paul Mashatile waiting in the wings: “I fear that if he were to become president, he might not be friendly towards the criminal justice system. The same way that Zuma came into the Presidency running away from the long arm of the law. And people like that coming there, the first thing they do is to ensure that they will weaken any part of the State that might go after them for stuff they did or they are alleged to have done in the past.” As for how the Democratic Alliance (DA) is likely to emerge from the impeachment process, Moeng says: “Now they have an opportunity to show that they still stand for the principle that they've always promoted themselves to be standing for.” He also comments on anti-immigrant protests that have sparked urgent government talks at the Union Buildings to formulate a national plan to deal with the rising xenophobia in South Africa.
In this edition of the NdB Sunday Show, hosted by Chris Steyn, Lauren Evanthia, the founder of the Organic Humanity Movement (OHM), analyses Patriotic Alliance (PA) leader Gayton McKenzie's unwavering support for President Cyril Ramaphosa in a GNU that “it is really held up by toothpicks at this moment…in a last ditch effort to try hold some semblance of normality so our economy doesn't completely crumbles”; former Democratic Alliance (DA) leader John Steenhuisen's performance in Parliament; why his party is at “a little bit at a crisis point” and have “reached the maximum capacity of support”; continuing chaos at former President Jacob Zuma's MKP with MP Papa Penny off to Floyd Shivambu's new party; and the apparent support among blacks on social media for FF Plus Correctional Services Minister Pieter Groenewald. Questioning the accuracy of the latest crime statistics, Evanthia also comments on the armed invasion this weekend at the home of former International Relations Minister Naledi Pandor. “I think when things like this happen to people in power, are they going to wake up and actually do something? History says no...” Meanwhile, she warns that the murder of two tourists in the Kruger National Park - the first in its history - is bound to be a huge blow to much needed tourism.
Kgomotso Modise, in for Clement Manyathela, speaks to Mbekezeli Benjamin, from Judges Matter to understand the legal implications of the former President’s Mbeki and Zuma’s challenge to Sisisi Khampepe’s role in TRC inquiry heading to the Concourt. The Clement Manyathela Show is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station, weekdays from 09:00 to 12:00 (SA Time).

Voormalige president Jacob Zuma het sy regspan opdrag gegee om te appelleer teen die uitspraak van die KwaZulu-Natal Hooggeregshof in Pietermaritzburg, wat opdrag gegee het sy wapenhandel-korrupsiesaak moet voortgaan. Zuma en die Franse wapenvervaardiger Thales staar 'n korrupsieklag van 'n multimiljard-Amerikaansde dollar wapentransaksie van 1999 in die gesig. Regter Nkosinathi Chilli het verklaar dis in belang van geregtigheid dat die saak voortgaan ongeag enige aansoeke of hangende appèl. Die woordvoerder van die JG Zuma Stigting, Mzwanele Manyi, sê die uitspraak is totaal verkeerd:
Former President Jacob Zuma has instructed lawyers to appeal a Pietermaritzburg High Court ruling that the Arms Deal trial must continue without further delays. Judge Nkosinathi Chili granted the State's "Stop Stalingrad" application, ordering Zuma and a Thales representative to appear in person when proceedings start in February next year. We spoke to the Jacob Zuma Foundation's spokesperson, Mzwanele Manyi.

In today's episode, we welcomed Luhua (Michael) Wang, MD, to discuss the implications of the full FDA approval of brexucabtagene autoleucel (Tecartus; brexu-cel) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Dr Wang is a professor in the Department of Lymphoma/Myeloma in the Division of Cancer Medicine, as well as a professor in the Department of Stem Cell Transplantation at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.On April 2, 2026, the FDA granted traditional approval to brexu-cel based on data from the phase 2 ZUMA-2 trial (cohorts 1 and 2, NCT02601313; cohort 3, NCT04880434), with confirmatory data from cohort 3 showing that patients naive to a BTK inhibitor experienced an overall response rate (ORR) of 91% (95% CI, 82.5%-95.9%), a complete response (CR) rate of 79% (95% CI, 69.0%-87.1%), and a median duration of response (DOR) that was not reached (NR; 95% CI, 26.2 months-not evaluable).Dr Wang detailed the evolution of therapies in the MCL treatment paradigm, leading up to the approval of brexu-cel and the integration of CAR T-cell therapy. Along with highlighting the evolution of MCL management, Dr Wang explained how data from cohort 3 of ZUMA-2 add further context to the role of CAR T-cell therapy in the treatment paradigm and how it may affect treatment sequencing considerations.

Historias de hoy que cambiaran el mañana. Conduce José Ignacio Cuadra. En este nuevo episodio de Vanguardias conversamos con la actriz de doblaje Betzabeth Gutiérrez sobre el fascinante proceso de interpretar personajes que acompañan a millones de personas a través de la pantalla. Durante la conversación, nos relata cómo se construye una voz, y qué desafíos existen detrás del trabajo de doblaje para dar vida a personajes tan icónicos como Zuma, de la serie infantil PAW Patrol. Una conversación entretenida y cercana sobre actuación, creatividad y el trabajo invisible que transforma voces en emociones y personajes inolvidables.
Is South Africa about to repeat its most expensive infrastructure mistakes? Ten years after a corruption-laden Russia/Zuma initiative was shelved, the controversial proposal for a nuclear power plant at Thyspunt near St Francis is back on the table. Communities in the Eastern Cape are sounding the alarm at a siting decision rooted in a 'homeland-distant' priority of a fearful Apartheid Regime. In this interview, Alec Hogg speaks with Trudi Malan, a passionate local activist and leader of the Thyspunt Alliance. She exposes Eskom's flawed scoping reports, the deadly lack of evacuation routes for residents, and the devastating threat to a global heritage site recognised as the cradle of modern humankind. Capping it all was the shocking arrogance displayed by officials at the required 'town halls' required as part of the public participation process. This is a must-listen for anyone concerned about South Africa's energy future and the protection of its heritage.
Claus Wolter, Merchandise Manager i Fanshoppen, fejrede for nylig sit 30-års jubilæum i F.C. København - kun Lars Højer har været længere på klubbens lønningsliste! I den anledning har podcastvært Torkil Fosdal haft en lang snak med Wolter om hans mange år som F.C. Københavner - og med en masse anekdoter helt tilbage fra slutningen af 80'erne, hvor Wolter var B1903-fan, inden F.C. København kom til verden i 1992. Siden hans fastansættelse i 1996 har karrieren været tæt knyttet til Fanshoppen, så podcasten giver også et billede af, hvordan den har udviklet sig lige fra første færd, hvor det hele foregik meget "analogt", inden digitaliseringen langsomt men sikkert vandt frem. Du kan for eksempel høre et nostalgisk FCK TV-indslag med Wolter fra lanceringen af F.C. Københavns eget trøjebrand, som vi var iført, da Zuma saksesparkede guldet hjem i foråret 2001. Ud over en række indblik i hverdagen bag kulisserne i F.C. København og Parken, var Wolter blandt andet også førstehånds-vidne til guldfejringen i 1993 og miraklet i Amsterdam i 2006, så vi kommer vidt omkring - og han benytter også anledningen til en velfortjent hyldest til alle de kolleger, som i "den skjulte hverdag" får det hele til at spille i Nordens største fodboldklub.

Terri Spath, founder and chief investment officer, at Zuma Wealth says it is understandable that investors are nervous with a lot of geopolitical worries and headlines on top of a market winning streak that can't go on forever, but she says that a strong earnings outlook, a healthy economy and the market's hot start to 2026 have her constructive and positive on the year ahead, expecting more good news without the negatives of recession or a bear market. She is urging clients to go back to basics to calm their nerves, noting that the market is going through a sharp rotation away from a few leaders to a broader outlook where investors will benefit from diversification and patience. With Valentine's Day ahead this week, David Trainer, president at New Constructs, eschews the usual worrisome pick for The Danger Zone, and instead goes for something much sweeter, a home-building company that he says is particularly attractive now. With jobs and inflation data on tap for this week — and the stock market coming off a big downturn in software stocks — Vijay Marolia discusses investors' nerves and how some might be letting headlines get in the way of good long-term buying opportunities in software, and whether they will be distracted by the jobs and inflation numbers released this week. Plus, he delves into "bets" versus "predictions" and more in "The Week That Is." Plus, Chuck digs in deeper to his Super Bowl jinx -- the trend he has identified in companies that buy Super Bowl ads within seven years of their initial public offering -- to discuss which companies from Sunday's big game might be losers in the market moving forward.

In today's BizNews Briefing, Mark Carney's Davos message to “middle powers”: the old rules-based order is fracturing, and countries like South Africa need strategic autonomy without retreating into fortresses. Locally, a reported letter linked to former President Jacob Zuma raises fresh questions about South Africans recruited for “training” in Russia and ending up near the Ukraine front line. We also hear Iraj Abedian's warning on Iran's unrest — and Magnus Heystek's contrarian take: Cape Town looks bubbly, Johannesburg offers value.

I'll often use these terms interchangeably to avoid repetition, but they describe two very different things. The main distinction: ski areas rise directly from parking lots edged by a handful of bunched utilitarian structures, while ski resorts push parking lots into the next zipcode to accommodate slopeside lodging and commerce.There are a lot more ski areas than ski resorts, and a handful of the latter present like the former, with accommodations slightly off-hill (Sun Valley) or anchored in a near-enough town (Bachelor). But mostly the distinction is clear, with the defining question being this: is this a mountain that people will travel around the world to ski, or one they won't travel more than an hour to ski?Arapahoe Basin occupies a strange middle. Nothing in the mountain's statistical profile suggests that it should be anything other than a Summit County locals hang. It is the 16th-largest ski area in Colorado by skiable acres, the 18th-tallest by lift-served vertical drop, and the eighth-snowiest by average annual snowfall. The mountain runs just six chairlifts and only two detachables. Beginner terrain is limited. A-Basin has no base area lodging, and in fact not much of a base area at all. Altitude, already an issue for the Colorado ski tourist, is amplified here, where the lifts spin from nearly 11,000 feet. A-Basin should, like Bridger Bowl in Montana (upstream from Big Sky) or Red River in New Mexico (across the mountain from Taos) or Sunlight in Colorado (parked between Aspen and I-70), be mostly unknown beside its heralded big-name neighbors (Keystone, Breck, Copper).And it sort of is, but also sort of isn't. Like tiny (826-acre) Aspen Mountain, A-Basin transcends its statistical profile. Skiers know it, seek it, travel for it, cross it off their lists like a snowy Eiffel Tower. Unlike Aspen, A-Basin has no posse of support mountains, no grided downtown spilling off the lifts, no Kleenex-level brand that stands in for skiing among non-skiers. And yet Vail tried buying the bump in 1997, and Alterra finally did in 2024. Meanwhile, nearby Loveland, bigger, taller, snowier, higher, easier to access with its trip-off-the-interstate parking lots, is still ignored by tourists and conglomerates alike.Weird. What explains A-Basin's pull? Onetime and future Storm guest Jackson Hogen offers, in his Snowbird Secrets book, an anthropomorphic explanation for that Utah powder dump's aura: As it turns out, everyone has a story for how they came to discover Snowbird, but no one knows the reason. Some have the vanity to think they picked the place, but the wisest know the place picked them.That is the secret that Snowbird has slipped into our subconscious; deep down, we know we were summoned here. We just have to be reminded of it to remember, an echo of the Platonic notion that all knowledge is remembrance. In the modern world we are so divorced from our natural selves that you would think we'd have lost the power to hear a mountain call us. And indeed we have, but such is the enormous reach of this place that it can still stir the last seed within us that connects us to the energy that surrounds us every day yet we do not see. The resonance of that tiny, vibrating seed is what brings us here, to this extraordinary place, to stand in the heart of the energy flow.Yeah I don't know, Man. We're drifting into horoscope territory here. But I also can't explain why we all like to do This Dumb Thing so much that we'll wrap our whole lives around it. So if there is some universe force, what Hogen calls “vibrations” from Hidden Peak's quartz, drawing skiers to Snowbird, could there also be some proton-kryptonite-laserbeam s**t sucking us all toward A-Basin? If there's a better explanation, I haven't found it.What we talked aboutThe Beach; keeping A-Basin's whole ski footprint open into May; Alterra buys the bump – “we really liked the way Alterra was doing things… and letting the resorts retain their identity”; the legacy of former owner Dream; how hardcore, no-frills ski area A-Basin fits into an Alterra portfolio that includes high-end resorts such as Deer Valley and Steamboat; “you'd be surprised how many people from out of state ski here too”; Ikon as Colorado sampler pack (or not); local reaction to Alterra's purchase – “I think it's fair that there was anxiety”; balancing the wild ski cycle of over-the-top peak days and soft periods; parking reservations; going unlimited on the full Ikon Pass and how parking reservations play in – “we spent a ridiculous amount of time talking about it”; the huge price difference between Epic and Ikon and how that factors into the access calculus; why A-Basin still sells a single-mountain season pass; whether reciprocal partnerships with Monarch and Silverton will remain in place; “I've been amazed at how few things I've been told to do” by Alterra; A-Basin's dirt-cheap early-season pass; why early season is “a more competitive time” than it used to be; why A-Basin left Mountain Collective; Justice Department anti-trust concerns around Alterra's A-Basin purchase – “it never was clear to me what the concerns were”; breaking down A-Basin's latest U.S. Forest Service masterplan – “everything in there, we hope to do”; a parking lot pulse gondola and why that makes sense over shuttles; why A-Basin plans a two-lift system of beginner machines; why should A-Basin care about beginner terrain?; is beginner development is related to Ikon Pass membership?; what it means that the MDP designs for 700 more skiers per day; assessing the Lenawee Express sixer three seasons in; why A-Basin sold the old Lenawee lift to independent Sunlight, Colorado; A-Basin's patrol unionizing; and 100 percent renewable energy.What I got wrong* I said that A-Basin was the only mountain that had been caught up in antitrust issues, but that's inaccurate: when S-K-I and LBO Enterprises merged into American Skiing Company in 1996, the U.S. Justice Department compelled the combined company to sell Cranmore and Waterville Valley, both in New Hampshire. Waterville Valley remains independent. Cranmore stayed independent for a while, and has since 2010 been owned by Fairbank Group, which also owns Jiminy Peak in Massachusetts and operates Bromley, Vermont.* I said that A-Basin's $259 early-season pass, good for unlimited access from opening day through Dec. 25, “was like one day at Vail,” which is sort of true and sort of not. Vail Mountain's day-of lift ticket will hit $230 from Nov. 14 to Dec. 11, then increase to $307 or $335 every day through Christmas. All Resorts Epic Day passes, which would get skiers on the hill for any of those dates, currently sell for between $106 and $128 per day. Unlimited access to Vail Mountain for that full early-season period would require a full Epic Pass, currently priced at $1,121.* This doesn't contradict anything we discussed, but it's worth noting some parking reservations changes that A-Basin implemented following our conversation. Reservations will now be required on weekends only, and from Jan. 3 to May 3, a reduction from 48 dates last winter to 36 for this season. The mountain will also allow skiers to hold four reservations at once, doubling last year's limit of two.Why now was a good time for this interviewOne of the most striking attributes of modern lift-served skiing is how radically different each ski area is. Panic over corporate hegemony power-stamping each child mountain into snowy McDonald's clones rarely survives past the parking lot. Underscoring the point is neighboring ski areas, all over America, that despite the mutually intelligible languages of trail ratings and patrol uniforms and lift and snowgun furniture, and despite sharing weather patterns and geologic origins and local skier pools, feel whole-cut from different eras, cultures, and imaginations. The gates between Alta and Snowbird present like connector doors between adjoining hotel rooms but actualize as cross-dimensional Mario warpzones. The 2.4-mile gondola strung between the Alpine Meadows and Olympic sides of Palisades Tahoe may as well connect a baseball stadium with an opera house. Crossing the half mile or so between the summits of Sterling at Smugglers' Notch and Spruce Peak at Stowe is a journey of 15 minutes and five decades. And Arapahoe Basin, elder brother of next-door Keystone, resembles its larger neighbor like a bat resembles a giraffe: both mammals, but of entirely different sorts. Same with Sugarbush and Mad River Glen, Vermont; Sugar Bowl, Donner Ski Ranch, and Boreal, California; Park City and Deer Valley, Utah; Killington and Pico, Vermont; Highlands and Nub's Nob, Michigan; Canaan Valley and Timberline and Nordic-hybrid White Grass, West Virginia; Aspen's four Colorado ski areas; the three ski areas sprawling across Mt. Hood's south flank; and Alpental and its clump of Snoqualmie sisters across the Washington interstate. Proximity does not equal sameness.One of The Storm's preoccupations is with why this is so. For all their call-to-nature appeal, ski areas are profoundly human creations, more city park than wildlife preserve. They are sculpted, managed, manicured. Even the wildest-feeling among them – Mount Bohemia, Silverton, Mad River Glen – are obsessively tended to, ragged by design.A-Basin pulls an even neater trick: a brand curated for rugged appeal, scaffolded by brand-new high-speed lifts and a self-described “luxurious European-style bistro.” That the Alterra Mountain Company-owned, megapass pioneer floating in the busiest ski county in the busiest ski state in America managed to retain its rowdy rap even as the onetime fleet of bar-free double chairs toppled into the recycling bin is a triumph of branding.But also a triumph of heart. A-Basin as Colorado's Alta or Taos or Palisades is a title easily ceded to Telluride or Aspen Highlands, similarly tilted high-alpiners. But here it is, right beside buffed-out Keystone, a misunderstood mountain with its own wild side but a fair-enough rap as an approachable landing zone for first-time Rocky Mountain explorers westbound out of New York or Ohio. Why are A-Basin and Keystone so different? The blunt drama of A-Basin's hike-in terrain helps, but it's more enforcer than explainer. The real difference, I believe, is grounded in the conductor orchestrating this mad dance.Since Henceroth sat down in the COO chair 20 years ago, Keystone has had nine president-general manager equivalents. A-Basin was already 61 years old in 2005, giving it a nice branding headstart on younger Keystone, born in 1970. But both had spent nearly two decades, from 1978 to 1997, co-owned by a dogfood conglomerate that often marketed them as one resort, and the pair stayed glued together on a multimountain pass for a couple of decades afterward.Henceroth, with support and guidance from the real-estate giant that owned A-Basin in the Ralston-Purina-to-Alterra interim, had a series of choices to make. A-Basin had only recently installed snowmaking. There was no lift access to Zuma Bowl, no Beavers. The lift system consisted of three double chairs and two triples. Did this aesthetic minimalism and pseudo-independence define A-Basin? Or did the mountain, shaped by the generations of leaders before Henceroth, hold some intangible energy and pull, that thing we recognize as atmosphere, culture, vibe? Would The Legend lose its duct-taped edge if it:* Expanded 400 mostly low-angle acres into Zuma Bowl (2007)* Joined Vail Resorts' Epic Pass (2009)* Installed the mountain's first high-speed lift (Black Mountain Express in 2010)* Expand 339 additional acres into the Beavers (2018), and service that terrain with an atypical-for-Colorado 1,501-vertical-foot fixed-grip lift* Exit the Epic Pass following the 2018-19 ski season* Immediately join Mountain Collective and Ikon as a multimountain replacement (2019)* Ditch a 21-year-old triple chair for the mountain's first high-speed six-pack (2022)* Sell to Alterra Mountain Company (2024)* Require paid parking reservations on high-volume days (2024)* Go unlimited on the Ikon Pass and exit Mountain Collective (2025)* Release an updated USFS masterplan that focuses largely on the novice ski experience (2025)That's a lot of change. A skier booted through time from Y2K to October 2025 would examine that list and conclude that Rad Basin had been tamed. But ski a dozen laps and they'd say well not really. Those multimillion upgrades were leashed by something priceless, something human, something that kept them from defining what the mountain is. There's some indecipherable alchemy here, a thing maybe not quite as durable as the mountain itself, but rooted deeper than the lift towers strung along it. It takes a skilled chemist to cook this recipe, and while they'll never reveal every secret, you can visit the restaurant as many times as you'd like.Why you should ski Arapahoe BasinWe could do a million but here are nine:1) $: Two months of early-season skiing costs roughly the same as A-Basin's neighbors charge for a single day. A-Basin's $259 fall pass is unlimited from opening day through Dec. 25, cheaper than a Dec. 20 day-of lift ticket at Breck ($281), Vail ($335), Beaver Creek ($335), or Copper ($274), and not much more than Keystone ($243). 2) Pali: When A-Basin tore down the 1,329-vertical-foot, 3,520-foot-long Pallavicini double chair, a 1978 Yan, in 2020, they replaced it with a 1,325-vertical-foot, 3,512-foot-long Leitner-Poma double chair. It's one of just a handful of new doubles installed in America over the past decade, underscoring a rare-in-modern-skiing commitment to atmosphere, experience, and snow preservation over uphill capacity. 3) The newest lift fleet in the West: The oldest of A-Basin's six chairlifts, Zuma, arrived brand-new in 2007.4) Wall-to-wall: when I flew into Colorado for a May 2025 wind-down, five ski areas remained open. Despite solid snowpack, Copper, Breck, and Winter Park all spun a handful of lifts on a constrained footprint. But A-Basin and Loveland still ran every lift, even over the Monday-to-Thursday timeframe of my visit.5) The East Wall: It's like this whole extra ski area. Not my deal as even skiing downhill at 12,500 feet hurts, but some of you like this s**t:6) May pow: I mean yeah I did kinda just get lucky but damn these were some of the best turns I found all year (skiing with A-Basin Communications Manager Shayna Silverman):7) The Beach: the best ski area tailgate in North America (sorry, no pet dragons allowed - don't shoot the messenger):8) The Beavers: Just glades and glades and glades (a little crunchy on this run, but better higher up and the following day):9) It's a ski area first: In a county of ski resorts, A-Basin is a parking-lots-at-the-bottom-and-not-much-else ski area. It's spare, sparse, high, steep, and largely exposed. Skiers are better at self-selecting than we suppose, meaning the ability level of the average A-Basin skier is more Cottonwoods than Connecticut. That impacts your day in everything from how the liftlines flow to how the bumps form to how many zigzaggers you have to dodge on the down.Podcast NotesOn the dates of my visit We reference my last A-Basin visit quite a bit – for context, I skied there May 6 and 7, 2025. Both nice late-season pow days.On A-Basin's long seasonsIt's surprisingly difficult to find accurate open and close date information for most ski areas, especially before 2010 or so, but here's what I could cobble together for A-Basin - please let me know if you have a more extensive list, or if any of this is wrong:On A-Basin's ownership timelineArapahoe Basin probably gets too much credit for being some rugged indie. Ralston-Purina, then-owners of Keystone, purchased A-Basin in 1978, then added Breckenridge to the group in 1993 before selling the whole picnic basket to Vail in 1997. The U.S. Justice Department wouldn't let the Eagle County operator have all three, so Vail flipped Arapahoe to a Canadian real estate empire, then called Dundee, some months later. That company, which at some point re-named itself Dream, pumped a zillion dollars into the mountain before handing it off to Alterra last year.On A-Basin leaving Epic PassA-Basin self-ejected from Epic Pass in 2019, just after Vail maxed out Colorado by purchasing Crested Butte and before they fully invaded the East with the Peak Resorts purchase. Arapahoe Basin promptly joined Mountain Collective and Ikon, swapping unlimited-access on four varieties of Epic Pass for limited-days products. Henceroth and I talked this one out during our 2022 pod, and it's a fascinating case study in building a better business by decreasing volume.On the price difference between Ikon and Epic with A-Basin accessConcerns about A-Basin hurdling back toward the overcrowded Epic days by switching to Ikon's unlimited tier tend to overlook this crucial distinction: Vail sold a 2018-19 version of the Epic Pass that included unlimited access to Keystone and A-Basin for an early-bird rate of $349. The full 2025-26 Ikon Pass debuted at nearly four times that, retailing for $1,329, and just ramped up to $1,519.On Alterra mountains with their own season passesWhile all Alterra-owned ski areas (with the exception of Deer Valley), are unlimited on the full Ikon Pass and nine are unlimited with no blackouts on Ikon Base, seven of those sell their own unlimited season pass that costs less than Base. The sole unlimited season pass for Crystal, Mammoth, Palisades Tahoe, Steamboat, Stratton, and Sugarbush is a full Ikon Pass, and the least-expensive unlimited season pass for Solitude is the Ikon Base. Deer Valley leads the nation with its $4,100 unlimited season pass. See the Alterra chart at the top of this article for current season pass prices to all of the company's mountains.On A-Basin and Schweitzer pass partnershipsAlterra has been pretty good about permitting its owned ski areas to retain historic reciprocal partners on their single-mountain season passes. For A-Basin, this means three no-blackout days at Monarch and two unguided days at Silverton. Up at Schweitzer, passholders get three midweek days each at Whitewater, Mt. Hood Meadows, Castle Mountain, Loveland, and Whitefish. None of these ski areas are on Ikon Pass, and the benefit is only stapled to A-Basin- or Schweitzer-specific season passes.On the Mountain Collective eventI talk about Mountain Collective as skiing's most exclusive country club. Nothing better demonstrates that characterization than this podcast I recorded at the event last fall, when in around 90 minutes I had conversations with the top leaders of Boyne Resorts, Snowbird, Aspen, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Snowbasin, Grand Targhee, and many more.On Mountain Collective and Ikon overlapThe Mountain Collective-Ikon overlap is kinda nutso:On Pennsylvania skiingIn regards to the U.S. Justice Department grilling Alterra on its A-Basin acquisition, it's still pretty stupid that the agency allowed Vail Resorts to purchase eight of the 19 public chairlift-served ski areas in Pennsylvania without a whisper of protest. These eight ski areas almost certainly account for more than half of all skier visits in a state that typically ranks sixth nationally for attendance. Last winter, the state's 2.6 million skier visits accounted for more days than vaunted ski states New Hampshire (2.4 million), Washington (2.3), Montana (2.2), Idaho (2.1). or Oregon (2.0). Only New York (3.4), Vermont (4.2), Utah (6.5), California (6.6), and Colorado (13.9) racked up more.On A-Basin's USFS masterplanNothing on the scale of Zuma or Beavers inbound, but the proposed changes would tap novice terrain that has always existed but never offered a good access point for beginners:On pulse gondolasA-Basin's proposed pulse gondola, should it be built, would be just the sixth such lift in America, joining machines at Taos, Northstar, Steamboat, Park City, and Snowmass. Loon plans to build a pulse gondola in 2026.On mid-mountain beginner centersBig bad ski resorts have attempted to amp up family appeal in recent years with gondola-serviced mid-mountain beginner centers, which open gentle, previously hard-to-access terrain to beginners. This was the purpose of mid-stations off Jackson Hole's Sweetwater Gondola and Big Sky's new-for-this-year Explorer Gondola. A-Basin's gondy (not the parking lot pulse gondola, but the one terminating at Sawmill Flats in the masterplan image above), would provide up and down lift access allowing greenies to lap the new detach quad above it.The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.
