The Future of Nordic Combined, Summit Chipping Program & Blue River Listings | Ski Summit Show Ep. 112

Welcome back to the Ski Summit Show — Episode 112!This week’s episode kicks off with a flash of Olympic flair — yep, that’s me in the Olympic jacket — and we dive into something close to my heart: the future of Nordic combined. As a former U.S. Olympian in the sport, it’s heartbreaking to see it lose funding and get cut from future Olympic games. But there’s still hope, and your support can make a real difference for the next generation.

What’s Happening in Summit County

Next, we touch on something that hits close to home — wildfire prevention. Summit County’s chipping program is ramping up soon, and it’s your chance to get rid of slash for free. No lumber, tumbleweeds, or sagebrush — just clean up and create defensible space.

Then, we hit on a failed insurance reform bill that aimed to fight rising homeowner insurance costs. The bill proposed a 1% premium increase to fund long-term solutions but was unfortunately killed. The affordability crisis continues to pressure local homeowners, especially condo owners dealing with soaring HOA fees.

Lastly, I take you riverside for two amazing listings right on the Blue River in Silverthorne. One offers that classic warm mountain vibe with timeless finishes. The other — newer, modern, and chic with clean lines and a carport. Both are true riverfront homes and a rare find in Summit County.
