Breckenridge Brewery & Pub

Breckenridge Brewery without question makes some of Colorado’s finest beers, and was created by Richard Squire in the 1980’s – a time when microbrewery was a strange concept - even to Coloradoans. Richard’s dream was to “ski all day and drink great beer all night.” He began making his beer blends at home, and they soon became a Breckenridge hit. In February, 1990 Richard opened the first Breckenridge Brewery & Pub in Breckenridge CO, and since then his brew blends have become a staple with Colorado beer drinkers, in part because Breck Brewery features a long list of original recipes and every changing seasonal creations. 

Going to Breckenridge Brewery, food is an afterthought, so don’t waste your time looking at the menu until you’ve decided on what brew you want to start with. The staff has an extensive knowledge of not only the beer’s taste, but also its brewing process, and can help you decide on the right beer for your palate. 

MapBuzz always recommends the Avalanche Amber Ale, which consists of caramel malts and a pinch of bittering hops, which possibly makes it our favorite ale ever! The new brew to try is the Agave Wheat Beer, which is the proper wheat reformulated three weeks ago using glucose instead of fructose, making it a more flavorful and healthier beer - so drink up.

Once you have your beer, it’s time for food. We recommend staying away from the BBQ. While the meat used is top quality, they drench it in a thin sauce, that lacks any original flavor and makes the meat uneatable.

The sandwiches and burgers are a regular’s favorite. MapBuzz recommends the California club sandwich, which has a plentiful amount of chicken and bacon, topped with avocados and an incredible mayo blend. The breads and buns at Breckenridge Brewery are full of flavor and make the burgers and sandwiches luxurious. The fries that comes with the entrees are some of the best fried potatoes we’ve ever had, cooked with the right balance of a crisp, lightly spiced outside and a smooth potato inside.

The shrimp and chips are a great pick if you’re not in the mood for a sandwich. The shrimps are large and full of flavor and make up for the cocktail sauce, which needs more of that after kick that separates it from marinara sauce.

The real reason anyone comes to Breckenridge Brewery is for the impeccably brewed beer, and great happy hour. But if you get hungry, you’ll be happy to find that food is prepared with the same care. Breckenridge Brewery is also just a hop-and-a-skip away from Coors Field, making it a must before or after Rockies’ games.

Average Meal: $21

Washington DC Punk Scene

This is my humble map of the DC punk rock music scene.

For a quick walking tour of the DC Punk Scene, start by standing outside the Starbucks at Seventh and E streets NW and wait for a text message.  It's the "Capitol of Punk," an interactive tour of 10 D.C. punk landmarks. By sending the text message "DCSPACE" to the number 67067, your cellphone will direct you on a guided treasure hunt, starting with factoids about the building at Seventh and E.  Please add on, comment and edit as you see fit - as it relates to PUNK.

Best Hikes With Dogs Colorado

80 hikes selected to delight your dog (and you) throughout Colorado-many accessible from urban areas.

This community is an interactive companion to the best-selling guide book “Best Hikes With Dogs in Colorado” (buy on Amazon). Browse the trails, plan some hikes, annotate the maps, leave your trip reports and join in the fun!

Seldom explored trails where no leashes are required and terrain is easy on the paws * Advice on keeping your dog happy, healthy, and hydrated in Colorado's High Country * What to pack: the Ten Canine Essentials and a Doggy First Aid Kit

Whether your dog is big or small, an overweight couch potato or a muscular retriever, Ania Savage has selected the best trails for every type of dog. She's been hiking with canine companions for more than twenty years and looks at the land through dog-centric eyes. These hikes will delight both you and your pet with panoramic views, soft tundra grasses, plenty of flowing water, and unexplored valleys and forests where you may have the trail to yourself. Savage puts a premium on canine safety, including tips on how to gauge the effect of high altitude and thin air on your dog.

From short day hikes to longer backpacking trips, many trails are clustered along the three highway "corridors" that penetrate the Colorado Rockies. They stretch from the Wyoming border to the San Juan Mountains in southern Colorado and west to Grand Junction, and including the Foothills near Denver; many have never before been described in another guidebook.

Colorado Fourteeners
Colorado's Fourteeners Guide

The Pocket Guide attempts to give the latest information on accessing and climbing Colorado’s 54 peaks that rise to 14,000 feet or above in a handy, pocket-carrying format.

Mountains do not change, but access to them does. The Pocket Guide lists the most popular routes to the Fourteeners and indicates changes in trails that were made in recent years. The Pocket Guide also advises you about the routes recommended by the Fourteener Initiative. The Fourteener Initiative is a cooperative effort of federal, state and private agencies and individuals formed in 1994 to safeguard, but at the same time make accessible and safe, Colorado’s highest peaks to mountaineers and hikers.

Climbing the Fourteeners

The Fourteeners stretch from Longs Peak in the Front Range, in sight of Wyoming, to Culebra Peak, just north of New Mexico, and to the San Juan Range near the famous Four Corners area where Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Utah meet. Climbing the Fourteeners will take the mountaineer to all parts of Colorado and introduce a variety of flora, fauna and rock.

How many Fourteeners are there has always intrigued climbers. Until the mid 1950s, climbers believed that there were 52 mountains in Colorado that were 14,000 feet high or higher. Missouri and its neighbor Huron Peak were added in the mid 1950s following new measurements. But in 1972, Stewart Peak in the San Juans was demoted to a Thirteener and Ellingwood Peak was added. The Pocket Guide gives routes to the 54 mountains that are recognized at this time as Fourteeners both by the U.S. Geological Survey and the CMC.

The organization of the Pocket Guide is straightforward. The peaks are grouped by the ranges in which they are found, listed from east to west across Colorado. Within each range, the peaks are listed from north to south. The climbing directions are for summer and early autumn trips. Winter conditions can change the entire climbing experience. Distances given are round trip distances except when noted otherwise.

The directions, however, cannot be relied upon as a substitute for good judgment and careful preparation. The guide makes no provision for the many variable conditions such as weather, physical condition of the participants and the possibility that climbers will fail to locate the described landmarks.

Climbers should use this guide with discretion and awareness of the countless hazards and challenges that must be confronted on even the “easiest” climbs. High mountains are subject to abrupt and drastic weather changes. Afternoon lightning storms are always to be expected when climbing the Fourteeners during the summer months, and some peaks do seem to have more storms than others. These peaks are so identified in the text. Because of the frequency of early afternoon storms, summer climbs should be planned so that the party is descending from the summit by noon. The threat of lightning storms diminishes in September and disappears in October and November.

In order to minimize environmental impact, the hiker is urged to remain on the trail, especially in those areas where trail revisions have been made to reduce human impact. Because of the increased popularity in climbing the Fourteeners, ascents on weekdays are preferred since they offer solitude and minimize trail and campground congestion. When camping, the camper is urged to use a gasoline stove, not a campfire, and filter, boil or chemically purify water obtained from streams.

Despite what anyone may tell you, breathing almost three miles above sea level or climbing several miles upward at a high altitude will not only take your breath away, but will tire you more quickly. Other more serious physical discomforts climbers may encounter are nausea, headache and, occasionally, heart palpitations. There is an inherent risk in climbing mountains, and each climber attempting a Fourteener should be aware of the risk. For this reason, the three climbers who have so generously share their knowledge of Colorado’s Fourteeners in the Pocket Guide maintain that there is no really “easy” mountain. Slippery cliffs, falling rock, crumbling ledges, heaving talus slopes and abrupt changes in the weather can turn a pleasant hike into a difficult climb. Thus, none of the mountains are ranked “easy,” and we do tell you if a mountain is difficult and if the climb can be dangerous.

High altitude almost always means low temperatures and strong wind, Therefore, frostbite and hypothermia are possible dangers. Climbers become exhausted or lost, or they may find themselves facing cliffs requiring technical rock climbing skills. In remote mountains or on little used trails, the consequences of climbing beyond your ability may require rescue, which can be slow in locating stranded or injured hikers.

For many, climbing is a method for challenging the limits of our body and our tolerance of danger. Mountain climbing expands our body’s abilities as it teaches us to gauge our capacity for risk. Yet, to go unprepared, carry no maps or compass, have inadequate water and eschew a pack with warm clothing and rain gear is foolhardy. On a Fourteener, a cloudless sunny day can end in a snowstorm or a whiteout. Drinking unpurified stream water can expose you to water-borne parasites.
