Lake Dillon Fire-Rescue temporarily stops burns/permits

Given the ever-present threat of wildfire and the current demands on the region’s firefighters battling major blazes in Colorado, Lake Dillon Fire-Rescue has stopped issuing burn permits for slash piles and will not allow existing permit-holders to burn their piles.  The ban on burning slash piles will be re-evaluated by the second week in July.  The ban does not prohibit recreational campfires – limited to no more than three feet in diameter and two-foot flame heights – but fire officials caution campers to never leave a fire unattended, always have a water source or extinguisher immediately available, and afterwards douse the fire to the point that the coals are cool to the touch.

Kingdom Days Outhouse Race Results

the seventh annual Kingdom Days. Celebrate over 150 years of Breckenridge’s diverse history with mining, exploration and adventure. Founded in 1859, Breckenridge was inadvertently excluded from some copies of the U.S. maps, becoming known as "Colorado's Kingdom" until 1936 when it finally became incorporated. For an entire weekend, this real town turns upside down to pay tribute to gold fields and mining, exploration and adventure, brothels and saloons, booms and busts.  The top three finishers in the 2013 Outhouse Races are as follows: 

1st (Golden Throne) and People's Choice: The Dreaded Runs (four-time champs).

2nd (Silver Moon): Cleveland Steamers.

3rd (Bronze Bucket): Beaver Run.
