LANCO w/The Pisten Bullys

Multi-Platinum selling band LANCO continues to forge new territory after the roots-frontier explorers and live-performance junkies broke out with the 2x Platinum multi-week No. 1 hit “Greatest Love Story.” Creating a heartland rocker for a new generation, the band followed up with the Billboard Country Albums chart topper HALLELUJAH NIGHTS, marking the first Country group to earn a No. 1 debut in a decade. Additionally, LANCO garnered another PLATINUM certified hit with “Born To Love You”, before the launch of their anthemic 2021 EP, HONKY-TONK HIPPIES, which was self-produced and co-written by the band. New music from the ACM “New Group of the Year” follows multiple nominations from the CMT, CMA, ACM, AMA and iHeartAwards, while Lancaster became the first member of a group to win NSAI’s “Songwriter/Artist of the Year” award. LANCO continues to “bring the full-band sound back to Country” (Newsday) and plans to build off their deep-rooted connection with fans in their new era of music.

Frances McCormack: Above and Below

“I am almost never satisfied with a painting until it has surprised me in some way, and probably after working on it for long while, weeks or months sometimes…This happens when the image I am chasing on the canvas suddenly suggests another direction—color, orientation even—and it is so compelling I am willing to undo weeks of work to try to integrate this upstart outlier, this strange event.” – Frances McCormack Frances McCormack is a Professor Emerita of Painting at the San Francisco Art Institute who’s work as an abstract painter draws on the history of gardens and landscape design. Her paintings are invented spaces or interior theaters that are essentially images of the process of growth and transformation within a contained space. She has sought out these spaces or walled gardens in Rome at the Villa d’Este and Villa Lante, at the Alhambra in Spain, the Topkai Palace in Istanbul, in Mexico at the houses of the architect Luis Barragan, or Santa Barbara at Ganna Walska’s LotusLand. These places provide a container where the urgency and noise of everyday obligations fall away and the visitor has access to other dimensions of thought and feeling. Combining architectural elements and loosely interpreted …

Sun Valley + IKON Pass

No matter how much you might love your home mountain, there are always other resorts to try out. And if you’re a powder hound, you might just spend your winters hopping from ski hill to ski hill, going where the meteorologist says the next dump will hit. This kind of winter adventuring is a heck of a lot easier with the IKON Pass, a multi-resort ski and snowboard season pass that gives you access to a whopping 50 resort destinations across five continents, 10 countries, 15 states, and four Canadian provinces. The 2023–2024 season, marks the first year that the Sun Valley Resort is a part of the Ikon Pass, adding itself to the list of iconic mountains one can experience as a pass holder. Sun Valley is also on the Mountain Collective Pass for the 2023-2024 season. Sun Valley is no longer on the EPIC Pass. What Are the IKON Pass Offerings? For the 2023-2024 season the original namesake IKON Pass costs $1,259 (for adults 23+, other options are available for young adults and children) and gets you unlimited access at 17 destinations and up to seven days each at 41 destinations. Included in those 14 with unlimited days …

Experience the Magic of Galena Lodge

I envy all those who get to experience the magic of Galena Lodge for the first time. Located 23 miles north of Ketchum, Galena Lodge is the last remains of a once thriving mining town. The miners have long gone but thanks to engaged community members in the early 1990’s, Galena heritage as an adventure outpost thrives on. The trip to Galena Lodge begins with the beautiful drive north on Highway 75. Numerous turnouts along the road serve up welcomed opportunities to stop and admire the snowcapped ridges and foothills of the Boulder and Smoky mountains. Amidst the dramatic scenery, Nordic skiers can be seen racing up and down the groomed 30 kilometer long, Harriman Trail. Home to the Boulder Mountain Tour, this area snakes along the side the headwaters of the Big Wood River. Galena Lodge will come in to view just before the highways begins to gain significant altitude. Parking can be found right at the turn. If the lot is at capacity, backtrack a short distance on the road to an overflow parking area along the highway. Don’t be put off by the number of cars, once on the trails you’ll feel like you’re in your own private Idaho. …

Barrio75 – Taco Lounge + Tequila Bar

Some things just go together: Blue Skies and Deep Powder. Hugs and Kisses. And of course…Tacos and Tequila. Tucked into the edge of downtown Ketchum with patio views of Mount Baldy, Barrio75 offers a lively and creative take on a beloved culinary duo. It begins, like so many great things, with a blank tortilla. Every day, we grind organic heirloom corn, crafting it into our housemade tortillas—the base of everything we do. We pay homage to the traditional street tacos of Mexico and South America, adding a joyful and ingredient-forward Sun Valley spin to the art. Warm cooked-to-order house corn chips are served in paper bags aside fresh guac and melty-queso in cast iron skillets. A killer happy hour features old-school street tacos to supplement signature creations like The French Onion taco, The Reuben taco, The Lamb Asada taco, and The Chorizo Cheeseburger taco. We utilize seasonal and sustainable ingredients, and serve them in an equally fresh atmosphere that buzzes with energy and emphasizes what we’re all about: gathering around a table to share great food and spirits. And oh, the spirits! Barrio75 features a list of over 40 tequilas, incredible draft beers and wines, and a cocktail menu designed …
