Whitebark pine and aspen ecology hike

Join the Wood River Chapter of the Idaho Native Plant Society for a free fall walk on Galena Summit, Saturday October 21. We’re going to hike up a short but steep hill to look at Whitebark pines and then down below the highway to look at aspens. With luck, there will be beautiful views and fall color. This hike will focus mostly on ecology of these two tree species but also on the importance of Whitebark pine as a keystone species and on why aspen is so successful at colonizing your whole front yard. You could meet us at the Hailey Park and Ride Lot (Bullion X River Sts) in time to leave at 9:15am or choose to meet at the Lake Creek parking area at 9:45am. This hike is rated Medium difficulty for altitude, steep hills and uneven ground. If you use poles, they’d be handy. After the hike, please join us at Sawtooth Brewery to have a beverage together. No dogs please. For more information please call 559.696.9953.

Sun Valley Opera and Broadway presents the Met Opera’s live simulcast of “Dead Man Walking”

Magic Lantern Cinemas

The 2023-2024 Season of The Metropolitan Opera’s Live Simulcast Opera Performances begins on Saturday, October 21, 2023 with "Dead Man Walking". Sun Valley Opera and Broadway will present its MET HD Live Simulcast Operas at the Magic Lantern Theater in Ketchum. "Dead Man Walkin"g is based on Sister Helen Prejean’s memoir about her fight for the soul of a condemned murderer. "Dead Man Walking" matches the high drama of its subject with Heggie’s beautiful and poignant music and a brilliant libretto by Terrence McNally. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium, with mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato starring as Sister Helen. The outstanding cast also features bass-baritone Ryan McKinny as the death-row inmate Joseph De Rocher, soprano Latonia Moore as Sister Rose, and legendary mezzo-soprano Susan Graham—who sang Helen Prejean in the opera’s 2000 premiere—as De Rocher’s mother. Content Advisory: "Dead Man Walking" contains a depiction of a rape and murder, as well as other adult themes and strong language.
