"A Possible Plan for Burying Interstate-70 at Vail"
There are other options including using quiet pavement on the interstate or advising residents to make improvements in their homes to reduce noise. Officials feel there needs to be a serious event to get the ball rolling on the tunnel plans. We may see Colorado bid for the Winter Olympics in the future.

"Two More Months of Skiing in Summit County"
As all the mountains close down for the season; don’t fret, because Arapahoe Basin plans on staying open for as long as the conditions are safe for skiing. As of today, A-Basin is still 100 percent open and skiers are still enjoying fresh powder from time to time. With what seems to be the never ending ski season, the Basin has had 63 inches of snow in February, which is 20 inches more than last season. The solid base will give spring skiing lovers a month or two more of days in the sun.

"The Ski Industry to Go Green"
Ski equipment can be re-used for materials such as flooring, but the problem is that there are so many layers and materials on skis and snowboards that it is difficult to separate the parts. One possibility is bringing old skis to shredding facilities and adding an environmental fee to the price of skis and boots to help with the cost.
The main challenge is that most ski equipment is made in China, which makes it hard to regulate environmental performance standards. Snowsports Industries of America has partnered with the natural Resources Defense Council to help set measurable goals for retailers.
