It’s “Fair Week” in Jackson, and it looks like we will have “fair weather” for the week. That’s not always the case, I can recall many a DemoDerby that was threatened by rain, severe thunderstorms, or gusty winds. If not that, it was hot temperatures and dusty conditions that re-quired extra water on the track. That hot weather seemed to cause people to want to get naked, and streak the derby. We’ll have none of thatthis fair week, no extreme weather, no more demo derby, and temperatures too cool to streak.

The Cool: It might have been the coming of the next ice age in the mid-1950’s that kept temps cooler around Jackson Hole during thehottest part of the year. The coldest temperature ever recorded in Jackson Hole during the latter half of July occurred on July 24th, 1954 whenthe temps got down to 24 degrees in town. Many of the record lows this week and next, happened in 1954.

The Hot: Historically, this is the hottest week of the year in Jackson, with the average high and lowtemperatures as warm as they get, and some of our hottest record highs came in mid to late July, aswell. Don’t expect any records this week, like we had back in 2003, with highs of 97 degrees on July23 and 24. Our high and low temperatures should stay comfortably close to normal here this week.

Weather Almanac JuLY 23 - 29

It was after midnight on Friday when I spotted Kelly Halpin stopped in her maroon jeep at the in-tersection of Cache and Broadway while late night revelers made their exodus from The Cowboy toThe Rose.

“Hi!” I exclaimed. “I’m headed to The Rose. You should come in.” Halpin flashed me a big smile andexplained that she was on her way to climb the Grand Teton. Just another night in Jackson Hole.

On Saturday, Halpin and local photographer Tristan Greszko completed a maniacal 23.5-hourtriathlon that could only be dreamed up in the Tetons, thanks to David Gonzalez. The Grand TetonTriathalon, or ‘The Picnic,’ encompasses biking from town, swimming across Jenny Lake, climbingthe Grand Teton and then doing it all in reverse. Halpin is the first woman to endure this gruelingmental and physical experiment in one push and the duo is the first to complete the mission com-pletely self-supported, meaning they hauled all their own gear. I coerced the 28-year-old illustrator togive us the beta in her own words. – Robyn Vincent

Props&DissesCowboy up

We can get behind the National Day of the Ameri-can Cowboy. Wyoming senators Mike Enzi and John

Barrasso introduced the resolution that makes the an-nual day, which has been observed unofficially for a

decade now, a real Wyoming tradition shared with the nation. U.S. Senator Craig Thomas began the observation on the fourth

Saturday of July in 2005 to coincide with Cheyenne Frontier Daysrodeo. Enzi and Barrasso have carried on the tradition sinceThomas’ passing.

The Wyoming senators got help from peers in Idaho, Montana,Nebraska, Oregon, Oklahoma and the Dakotas with Texans pre-sumably pissed off they didn’t think of it first.

The resolution reads fairly predictably with the list of“Whereas” followed by “honesty, integrity, courage, compassion,respect, a strong work ethic and patriotism.”

The patriotism part might be a stretch. Cowboys of the 19thcentury were oftentimes barely on American soil long enough tolearn the “Star Spangled Banner” when they started up the Good-night-Loving Trail, but it’s not as questionable as the next line ofthe resolution: “Whereas the cowboy spirit exemplifies strengthof character, sound family values, and good common sense …”

Sound family values? Hmm, that sounds like it might havebeen lifted directly from the Chamber of Commerce marketingmaterials concerning the whorehouses and saloons in Tomb-stone, Deadwood and Dodge City.

Today’s cowboy and cowgirl are American icons and it is goodto see Wyoming lay claim to the day and the degree.

Victims offered closureThere is no way to make a victim of a crime, espe-

cially violent crime, whole again. Seeing a criminalpunished harshly may satisfy to a degree but sooneror later many victims and survivors are haunted byunanswered questions.

Why did he pick me to rape? Why did he abduct and stranglemy daughter? What drives someone to be so heartless and cruel?

Resolution for victims and survivors is too often unavailable. Infact, in Wyoming, it’s not even possible. Until now. Wyomingstatute does not allow inmates to reach out to victims directly.But a new program established earlier this year allows closure forboth victim/survivors and offenders with a conscience to clear.

Wyoming Board of Parole (WBP) launched the Victim OffenderDialogue program recently. It offers victims/survivors the oppor-tunity to meet an offender face-to-face in a safe and secure envi-ronment.

“We try to help the victims and their families get some type ofclosure,” said WBP coordinator Randi Losalu. Four trained facili-tators in Casper, Riverton, Rawlins and Cheyenne will monitormeetings that are completely victim-initiated. Grants have beenobtained to help victims/survivors with travel expenses.

About 300 such programs are running in the United States.

from PICNIC page 4

Last summer I received an email from David Gon-zales inviting a handful of people to attempt theGrand Teton Triathlon. The mission was to bike fromtown square to Jenny Lake, swim 1.3 miles across thelake, summit the Grand Teton, descend, then swimback across the lake and bike back to town using onlyhuman power. The idea of any kind of lake crossingwas completely terrifying to me so I didn’t even con-sider it. I hate being wet, I hate being cold, and I’mterrified of dark water. But over the course of last win-ter the regret of not even trying the GTT sunk in and Idecided to make a solid attempt during the summer. Iasked my friend and climbing partner, TristanGreszko, if he would be interested in doing the GTTwith me, and we started some mild training to get inshape for the adventure.

Early in the planning process, we played aroundwith the idea of being the first to try the GTT com-pletely self-supported. Of course this would slow usdown both with the logistics and the added weight, butwe thought it was worth a shot, especially since it wasDavid’s original vision. We chose climbing equipmentand clothing based on its weight and made a couple oflast minute purchases. The hardest part of this self-supported idea was that we were going to have to finda way to pull our gear across the lake not once, buttwice. Tristan and I did some research, asked a fewfriends for advice, and finally came up with a plan touse dry bags strapped to boogie boards which wewould tow behind us as we swam. Of course this alsomeant we had to make it to and from the lake withboogie boards attached to our bikes. The final set upwas pretty ridiculous looking, but with a high-pressuresystem moving in, we set a date for Saturday, July 19.

We met at 1:45 a.m. near town square and by 2:03a.m. were on our way north. Biking up was relativelyeasy, even with the additional weight, and by 3:45a.m. we were stashing our bikes and pulling on wet-suits. Tristan and I were pretty cold getting into thewater, but once we started swimming, we warmed upfast. It was incredibly intimidating stepping into thedark water and looking across knowing that some-where on the other side was the boat dock and we hadto swim that distance alone without any boat support.We tied glow sticks to our bags so we could see eachother in the dark and towed the boards using cordthat was tied around our waists. It took us two hoursto cross and by the time we were clawing our wayonto the dock, the sun was rising. Both of my legs hadcramped up severely during the swim and I hadstrained a muscle in my right side from breathing toohard, but other than that I felt good about continuing.Once again we stashed gear in the trees and starteddown the trail towards Lupin Meadows.

Tristan and I were pretty efficient getting up to thelower saddle. We refilled water where we needed toand were continually forcing down power gels andchews to maintain our energy. There are a few snow-fields to cross, including the winter route up the head-wall, and at that point I was glad we had decided tobring ice axes. We refilled water at the lower saddleand met two other adventurers, Nick and Chuck, whowere “picnicking” as well. After a exchanging a fewpictures and encouraging words, we parted ways andTristan and I made our way towards the upper saddle.

Over the course of this event there were a few ex-treme highs and lows and one of these lows hit rightas we started up the gully. We both became extremelylight-headed and slightly nauseous. Breathing be-came painful and I started coughing, which exacer-bated the strained muscle in my side. But one of theremarkable things I learned from this event is how ahuman body and mind can recover after beingpushed to the edge. I had never experienced altitudeproblems in the Tetons before and there was a definitemoment where I wanted to call it. Tristan and I took amoment to set a pace we could tolerate without get-ting too dizzy and continually asked each other howwe were doing. By the time we reached the upper sad-dle our lightheadedness had improved and we de-cided to continue up the Owen Spalding.

We had packed alpine harnesses and minimal gearin case we opted to protect the exposed parts of theOS. At that point I was glad we brought the gear be-cause our brains were partly fried and it was notworth the risk of soloing, even if it meant more time.We summited around 2 p.m., took a few photos, thenheaded towards the first rappel. The downside of notsoloing was that we were forced to wait for other par-ties at both rappel stations and therefore lost timeagain. Once back down on the upper saddle, webooked it down the gully and stopped only briefly atthe lower saddle for a quick “picnic” of bacon andpizza. We lost quite a bit of time again on the bootpack down the headwall when we had to wait for afew guided parties to ascend. Once down in themoraine, we set a super fast pace downhill and by 8p.m. we found ourselves back at the Lupin Meadowsparking lot.

While other parties in the parking lot were tailgatingand high-fiving their achievements, Tristan and I werehaving a serious debate on whether or not it wasworth it to finish the GTT. We knew at this point thatthe second swim was going to be in the dark, again,and that the bike ride home, too. We also knew wewere physically and mentally fried and that a swimback across the lake in the dark without boat supportwas not only going to suck, but was extremely danger-

ous. I don’t think I have ever been so tempted to justwalk away from something, but we also knew that ifwe didn’t at least attempt to finish, we would regret itfor the rest of our lives. With that in mind, we said,“To hell with it – let’s finish this!”

Due to the various dangers of crossing the middle ofthe lake again without boat support, Tristan came upwith a brilliant plan. He roughly measured out the dis-tance we needed to swim and mapped it out on thenorth side of the lake so we could swim about 100 feetoff shore the entire time. That way if our legs crampedup or something else went wrong, we could make it toshore rather than be in the center of the lake withouthelp. We grabbed our boards and wetsuits and hikedto the North side of Jenny. We put in at the inlet andswam out into the dark lake once more, only this timewe followed the curve of the shore.

This second swim was the most surreal part of theday. Floating in black water against a black sky withnothing but stars to light the way and being absurdlyexhausted created this euphoric meditation. There is re-ally nothing to do but turn off your mind and continueto swim and breathe. After an hour of swimming in thedark and having no way to find the overlook, we de-cided to swim to shore. Once our feet hit the shallowsunderneath, we were both hit with the spins to such adegree that we had to take a moment and hang on toeach other until the effect wore off and we could safelywalk on to dry land. Turns out Tristan’s measurementwas dead on. We had swam almost exactly 1.3 miles andwere only a short distance from the overlook.

Tristan and I found our bikes, repacked our gear,and turned our headlamps down the road towardsJackson. Most of the stories from the picnic last yearindicated that the second swim was the crux of thetriathlon. I found that, for myself at least, the bike ridehome was the hardest. I was cold, dehydrated, nau-seous, and extremely tired. The headlamp light againstthe moving bike path created this crazy, nuaseating ef-fect and there were a number of times I wanted to stopmy bike, throw up, and pass out in the sagebrush. Tris-tan stayed ahead of me the entire time so I just keptmy eyes on him and peddled until I could see thelights of town below. We made it back to the parking lotat 1:30 a.m., July 20, 23.5 hours later.

I would say that the GTT was by far the most amazingadventure I’ve ever been on- both physically and men-tally. Tristan was an incredible partner and I don’t thinkI could have gone half as far without his support andencouragement. The entire experience really openedmy eyes to what the human body can accomplish.

I’m backing up David’s vision 100 percent and can’twait until the next human powered adventure!

Planet Jackson Hole: What isyour motivation for running? Toppriorities?

Jim DarwicheAs a county commissioner there were

several issues that I wanted to pursue,but couldn’t as they were stateissues. One was education and voca-tional training. As a businessman andentrepreneur, I believe we need to in-crease the number of economic oppor-tunities for our children. Additionally,we are blessed with mineral resourcesin this state; I want to ensure that theenergy industry operates responsibly.Our wildlife and its habitat are a great

gift and a valuable resource. Preservingthese resources is crucial to our econ-omy and our quality of life. The govern-ment can have a positive or negativeeffect on our economy and quality oflife. I want to work on behalf of the peo-ple to ensure we will have a vibranteconomy and provide opportunities.

I believe in investing in our children.Our children are our future. I will ex-plore educational choices thatmatch our need as community, and thepassion of our children.

We are the gatekeepers to Yellow-stone and Grand Teton national parksand these resources along with tourismare the cornerstones of our economy.We have a responsibility to protect andpreserve these resources not only forour children and future generations,but also for the entire world to enjoy.

Andy SchwartzMy top priorities, that are also my

motivation for running include: The reality of climate change de-

mands new approaches to energy con-sumption, creation and extraction. Ourprotection of critical resources such aswater supply and wildlife habitat mustbe kept current as conditions change.

Equality in the Equality State. This

means equal pay for equal work, no dis-crimination based on gender identity orsexual orientation, and marriage op-portunity for all.

Strengthening Wyoming’s business cul-ture for a 21st century economy. Invest-ment in education, infrastructure and theWyoming Business Council are criticalcomponents in achieving that goal.

Wally UlrichI first became fascinated with the po-

litical process in 1967 when I waselected Speaker of the House while at-tending Boys State. In 1970, I began leg-islative work with Malcolm Wallop andother legislators on Wyoming’s habitat

protection and development agenciesand helped draft and gave testimony inWashington for the national legislationthat created Fossil Butte National Mon-ument. I helped draft and worked manybills through the Wyoming Legislature,including a rewrite of Wyoming’s elec-tion code and school funding.

My top priorities are:Creative expansion of our state’s rev-

enue streams with more transparencyfor revenue and budgetary monitoring.Finding legislative solutions that ad-dress inequities in existing property taxassessment. Finding long-term solu-tions for Hoback habitat and energy en-dowment responsibilities to schoolchildren and education systems in

Wyoming. Clarifying land useand access and incorporatingsolid, well-grounded science tosolve problems and inform de-cisions. Expansion of local ini-tiatives in professionaldevelopment and education(Nursing, Hospitality Industry,and Biological and Earth Sci-ences). Creating incentives forentrepreneurs and small busi-ness startups, and innovativeenergy solutions. StabilizingWyoming resident waterrights opportunities.

PJH: Do you feel yourparty affiliation gives youany advantage or disad-vantage? Why, and onwhat issues? (For instance,while the state is primarilyRepublican, would TetonCounty benefit from hav-ing a Democrat representDistrict 23, or at least amoderate Republican?)

Jim DarwicheBecause we live in a small

community, party affiliationdoes matter even though trackrecord should outweigh it. Hav-ing said that, party affiliation inCheyenne is paramount for de-livering a better service to ourcommunity. Building relation-ships and being a member of aparty with majority will help toeffectively solve issues and getthe job done.

Andy SchwartzI feel this question is de-

signed to help perpetuate themyth that only a Republicancan succeed in Cheyenne. I donot believe that the effective-ness of a legislator is based onparty affiliation. An under-standing of the issues and theability to forge relationshipsand work collaboratively withothers are the strengths I willuse to provide effective repre-sentation for Teton County.

Wally UlrichI have been a Wyoming Re-

publican since I was seven andmarched in my first parade as asmall but proud elephant. Butfirst and foremost I am aWyomingite – fifth generation,actually. The relationships I havedeveloped extend across the en-tire state and cross party lines.Just as important, the relation-ships my families, parents andsister have developed over thelast many decades are a tremen-dous asset I bring to the table inrepresenting Teton County.

Residents of HD 23 will ben-efit from having a knownmember of the majority in theroom during caucus and delib-erations early in the yearly cy-cles of legislation creation. Iknow the process well. Com-mittee appointments and leg-

islation flow are governed bythe majority and leadership’sknowledge of my multiple lev-els of involvement in Wyomingwill be uniquely beneficial toresidents of House District 23.

PJH: Do you feel anyadded responsibility orpressure in continuing anoffice held by popular,long-term representativeKeith Gingery? Does thatfactor into your thinkingat all? What are some ofthe things he did well thatyou would continue?What are some things youfeel he was off base onthat you would not neces-sarily pursue?

Jim DarwicheThe honorable Keith Gingery

served our community effec-tively with passion for severalyears. I would hope that my ex-perience and approach wouldbe as effective as Keith’s. Idon’t feel any added pressure; Iwill just do what I have alwaysdone, serving with honesty, in-tegrity and transparency.

Andy SchwartzDuring his five terms in of-

fice Rep. Gingery served TetonCounty admirably. I see thiselection not as a referendumon the past, but as a vote onthe future of the county andthe state of Wyoming.

Wally UlrichA decade ago, Representa-

tive Gingery wondered how hewould fill the void left byClarene Law, a veritable “leg-end” both in the Legislatureand in our community – andlook what he was able to ac-complish. I admire Keithgreatly, as a friend and as a citi-zen who benefitted from hisservice. Keith’s insight into thelaw was immensely valuable inhelping him craft effective leg-islation. My experience andstrengths are in different areas,but will be equally valuable asWyoming begins to explorenew uses of known sources ofenergy as well as stimulatinglittle-known energy sources.

Representative Gingery sawopportunities – from the eco-nomic value of the arts, cultureand history of our state to re-forming and proposing en-forceable laws so they can beof tangible benefit toWyoming’s citizens. Keith Gin-gery has great vision. He repre-sented his district andcommunity with the samecommitment he gave to theentire state.

Keith Gingery supports myelection and knows that I amuniquely suited to pick upwhere he left off.

Planet Jackson Hole: Why are you resigning?christine Walker: It’s a challenging and stressful

job. There is no particular reason. There wasn’tanything that was a defining moment. I just felt likeit was time to go. I never saw myself as a lifer atthe Housing Authority. I committed to five years, soI think I put in my time fighting this battle. The po-sition in itself is very controversial – providing gov-ernment-provided housing for working families.That over time it takes a toll.

PJH: Why now? How long have you been think-ing about leaving?

cW: It’s been a while, now, probably for over ayear. I’ve been thinking about whether I reallywanted to keep on in this position or whether Iwanted to try something different. Part of it was Ifelt the Grove was at a particular position whereit’s steadily moving forward. It’s a good time tomake a transition into a different role.

PJH: How did you get here?cW: The Housing Authority was established in

1990. It was a well-established organization thathad just completed the Milward development. Wehad just transferred some land to the Housing Trustto develop on Hall. And I’ll tell you what; thereweren’t a whole lot of good records in place at theHousing Authority. Having to establish record keep-ing was a big part of what I had to do at the HousingAuthority.

PJH: When did you really feel settled in; likeyou had a handle on the job?

cW: I still don’t have a handle on the job. It’sevolving so quickly. What is especially challengingright now is not having the organizational capacityto do what you see needs to be done. I hope this isan opportunity for the community to really standbehind their government housing entity and providethe resources needed to take it to the next level. Ithink a fresh energy is needed here. A fresh per-spective.

PJH: What TCHA needs is more money, andland. And money.

cW: That’s good for putting housing on theground. Development is kind of the sexy part of theHA. It’s fun to be able to work with people to comeup with a plan, and work with the neighbors tolearn what they want to see, and work with existinghomeowners to understand how to make housingbetter. And to put something on paper and watch itcome out of the ground.

PJH: And the drudgery of the job?

cW: Managing the units that are on the ground.Sales and resales, the bulk of what the HA reallydoes is provide management of the existing restric-tions on properties.

PJH: The American dream of home ownership,of creating that investment in community wasonce all the rage. Now, it seems, everyone istalking about renting over owning. How is theTCHA responding?

cW: One big misperception I think that is held bypeople in the community is that, well, there areabout 1,500 restricted units, 1,000 of those arerentals. So we’ve had a lot of success in providingrental products. You have Habitat pushing and mar-keting for ownership opportunities and you have theHousing Trust doing that. So in the community whatwe see is a lot of this emphasis on the ownershipproduct when really there’s been a lot of emphasison rentals, too, and I don’t think the community isaware of it.

We’ve always been talking about providing rentalproducts since I started with the HA. It hasn’t been

something that is not on our radar. We got shotdown on many cases in trying to provide it. But wepartnered with a private sector developer to buildthe Flat Creek units. We partnered with PioneerHomestead to provide rental housing there as well.We have short memories, I say.

Part of the reason there has been an emphasis onhome ownership in the past is that in this commu-nity, through the free market, there are very fewopportunities for entry-level housing for people toget a foothold.

PJH: Developers and others complain a lotabout the 25 percent mitigation fee. They sayit’s too high and stifles new development. It wasjacked up from 15 percent when the economywas booming. Is 25 percent the right number?

cW: Is it right? One of the things to remember is

that that tool is to mitigate the impacts of actualnew development being built. It’s not to try tomake up for some housing shortage we have in thecommunity. It’s designed to help house the employ-ees a new development will create. If we haveother tools that are functioning correctly, like find-ing ways to partner with business to help put houseson the ground and creating incentives in our LDRs,then the numbers could be right. It depends on howmuch you want to have these other systems andtools working. If you want to say, “Nope, we don’twant to provide housing in any other way thanthrough this tool,” then it needs to be higher.

PJH: Surely you’ve heard the chatter. Is thepushback a headache and the reason why you arecalling it quits?

cW: The biggest headache with that mitigationrate is the assumption that it’s the Housing Author-ity’s regulation, where it’s the town and county’sregulation. We just help to implement those. I’veheard a lot of rumblings, mostly from developers,which isn’t uncommon.

The community has set a goal of housing 65 per-cent of the workforce. So let’s say that mitigationrate is at 25 percent. That means with a new devel-opment they are going to mitigate for 25 percent ofthe employees they generate that can’t affordhousing in the community. That means the commu-nity has to figure out a way to provide housing for40 percent of those other employees. So if the com-munity wants to do it through other mechanisms,great, but let’s run the numbers real quick.

Lets make it easy, say a new development comesonline that has 100 employees. They have to pro-vide housing for 25. The community at-large has toprovide housing for 40. That gets us at our goal.Now let’s say we are going to put two people perunit. To create one unit, you’re probably looking at$200,000, times the 20 units I have to create. That’sthe cost to the community. So how are you going toget that money to pay for those houses for thoseworkers? It’s expensive. So really it’s a communitydecision. If we as a community want to have a newdeveloper mitigate a larger portion of their impact,there is that option. If not, and we still have thisgoal, we have to look for other solutions.

PJH: Maybe an answer, in part, is what we areseeing with some of the valley’s biggest employ-ers building their own employee housing. Itmakes sense. Workers need a place to live almostas much as a paycheck. Maybe more.

After nine years, Housing Authorityleader tires of ‘battle’

Walker walksBy JAke NicHolS

Christine Walker announced her resignation as executive director of the Teton County Housing Au-

thority last week. Her departure comes at a time when affordable housing is a hot button issue and

housing availability, or lack of, has never been more dire.

After nine years on the job, Walker can look back and feel proud of a few achievements. But budget

cuts and the daily challenges of providing government subsidized housing have finally taken their toll.

Walker sat down with The Planet for a look back, and ahead, at the challenges of trying to house the

valley’s workforce.

“Christine has been a great leader in

the affordable housing sector. I’ve en-

joyed working with her and will miss

her on a professional and personal

level. She’s been a good friend. I wish

her the best on her future endeavors.”

– Brandon Schulte, executive directorHabitat for Humanity Greater Teton Area

cW: I see that as a really big, untapped resource.It isn’t something that the HA has done a lot of, ex-cept to help facilitate the Mountain Resort housingdevelopment [near Kmart]. But that really ties intothat organizational capacity. If we had more organi-zational capacity to focus on ways to partner withemployers, well it’s a way to get more housing onthe ground for less – leveraging some private fundswith public funds. That being said, I want to be re-ally clear. Employers in this community have done atremendous job in providing housing for the work-force. They are doing it. Helping them do it moreeffectively is an opportunity for this community.

PJH: You mentioned organizational capacity.How many people are on staff at TCHA? Howmany do you need?

cW: Right now there are four staff members atthe TCHA. One person is our office manager andsales coordinator. One person is our stewardshipmanager and communications. One is our housingassociate who reviews development applications.The executive director does development and ismanaging all these people. So there isn’t the capac-ity to add any more programs. There isn’t the ca-pacity to try to be creative with working morecollaboratively with the business community or thetown and county to help make them work more ef-fectively together.

Ideally, I would love to see the Housing Authoritybe a regional authority. It would make for greatercollaboration between the town and county. My un-

derstanding is the HA was set up as a county entityprimarily because at the time, in 1990, develop-ment was taking place in the county. That’s reallyswitched. With the new Comprehensive Plan, theworkforce housing is to be in the town. I think thathaving a regional housing authority would help thecommunity be more productive in providing housingfor the workforce. And I see that entity kind of hav-ing two arms – a development side and a steward-ship side.

PJH: Your funding has been cut dramaticallyover the past few years. How are you managing?

cW: With the downturn in the economy there areless resources available, countywide. It wasn’t any-thing specific to the TCHA, but all agencies havebeen required to cut budgets where they could. Sowe are getting down to our bare bones level of serv-ices and service provision. And it takes a while forthat revenue to rebound and we haven’t really seenthat coming through. But with the down economywe also saw a slack in the demand for our services.So it allowed us to cut some of our essential serv-ices and still be able to function effectively. We alsoimplemented a very robust database which helpsstreamline operations here and enables us to man-age more units in our inventory. But when it startsticking up we are getting hit on all sides right now.

That’s just been this void in our community for alot of years. You don’t see any housing events goingon in the community. You have Habitat that is build-ing onsite, which is great because that is definitely

community building, but there just haven’t been alot of voices for the need to house our workforce lo-cally. Did I say organizational capacity before? I seethat changing and that would be fantastic. I hope itdoes.

PJH: I think we’ve all heard stories of abuse.People in subsidized housing driving fancy cars,renting their place out, or not living in it at all.Is compliance an issue?

cW: I don’t think they are being abused thatbadly. Part of having any government system is youare going to have abuse. It comes down to a thresh-old of what level of abuse are you willing to livewith? And with that being said, how many resourcesdo you want to throw at trying to minimize theabuses?

I think there are a lot of perceptions about theabuse that stem from, well, each restriction is a lit-tle bit different so sometimes you can rent yourhouse. We do give permission for people to leave ifthey have, say, a family emergency, they can leavefor a year. Or they may get a job [elsewhere] if theeconomy is terrible here, so they may get permis-sion to leave. So a lot of times there may have beenpermission granted to leave or rent out an afford-able house and the neighbors are like, “This personis renting it out.”

We respond on a complaint basis. I would say 90percent of the time there is no abuse, nothing goingon. In a few cases we deem there is a violation andwe look into it further. We just had one today and

they’re horrible to deal with. We had a hearing forthe first time. In nine years we’ve had one hearingon a violation. Which was deemed they were livingsomewhere else. But usually we can resolve it.Once we find out about it and talk to the homeown-ers we tend to get resolution.

But you can buy a nice car after you buy an af-fordable home. You are allowed to do that. And in alot of cases it’s at time of purchase so you couldbuy your affordable home then win the lottery andbuy another home. That’s not against the rules. Typ-ically what happens is somebody is not going towant to stay in their affordable homes because wetend to make them a little bit smaller than probablymost people would want, or a little less desirable.So that if they do increase their means there is kindof a motivation to move out.

PJH: Do you still give preference to first re-sponders? Does that bring up ethical concerns?

cW: Yes, we do that. It’s called a critical serviceprovider. So they are on call 24 hours a day in theevent of a public health/safety emergency. It’schallenging because you start judging. We now havein place a process of verification because we defi-nitely did see abuses of that when there wasn’t aformal process set up.

PJH: Where do you get your money?cW: In government, we have different pots of

money that we can allocate for different uses. Foroperations, we get funds from the Teton Countygeneral fund. As long as we have staff actively de-veloping we are able to use some of those fees-in-lieu. We have rent revenue. We also have salescommissions or facilitation fees, as we call them.That’s how we fund our operations.

HA has been successful with SPET elections. Wepurchased land and have land set aside for futureaffordable housing development. Historically, thesubsidy is the cost of the land. With all costs in, itcosts $400,000 to produce a unit. To sell it afford-ably to a family that can afford it, the sales pricewould need to be $200,000. So there’s that subsidyof $200,000. Typically, that subsidy is the value ofthe land. When you see that value increase dramat-ically, that subsidy value goes up dramatically. Thisincreasing cost of land is a challenge to our com-munity.

The Grove is a little bit of an anomaly becausethe land was purchased in 2001 with SPET funds,then there was the trade agreement with the town.So the subsidy per unit in there is closer to $70,000per unit.

PJH: Has it been difficult or easy working withthe town and county?

cW: I wouldn’t quantify it as easy or hard. It’s allhard [laughs]. Elected officials have so many thingson their plate. And all I’ve got is housing. So I cometo them and it’s just housing, housing, housing. Andthey’re going, “OK, I’ve got Christine coming at mewith housing, I’ve got Mike Wackerly coming at mewith buses, I’ve got Brian Schilling coming at mewith Pathways, I’ve got the school district comingat me with a new school that they need.” Theyhave a lot of things that they have to juggle. Be-lieve me, I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes anymore than I don’t want to be in my own anymore.It’s a challenge in order to get their focus and at-tention and be able to have meaningful discussionsabout housing in particular places.

PJH: Did you consider putting something on the2014 SPET ballot?

cW: No. They were trying to keep it at a set leveland we’ve got the Grove project and are fairly com-fortable with being able to fund that. The last SPETelection that TCHA was on, in 2006, it was a veryslim margin of victory. Part of the feedback fromthat was there was no specific project [tied to ourrequest]. With the Grove underway we didn’t havea specific project on the SPET ballot. It would havebeen a general “we want money” and I’m not surethat would be successful.

PJH: What does your future hold?cW: I don’t really know. I have some ideas. I’m

just stepping out there. In the decision-makingprocess to leave here I thought I should probably tryto figure out what I’m going to do when I leave. Butthis job is so all-consuming that I just didn’t havethe energy to think about it. I finally recognized Ijust needed to make a decision and have trust in myskills and abilities that I can stop this job and saveenough money so that we can get by financially forseveral months until I can find something else. Iwould like to do something with development. Thatis my passion. It’s what I enjoy doing and I hope itcan be on the private side trying to find solutions tohousing our workforce. That would be my dreamjob. But can I make it work, financially? I’m notsure.

PJH: And what if you bring a project to thetown or county and are hit with that whopping25 percent mitigation fee for housing?

cW: Then I’ll show them how to do it cost-effec-tively. Incorporate it and make it work for the de-velopment. That’s the cost of doing business in thiscommunity. It’s like the park and school exactionfees, the water sewer hookups, the parking require-ments, the building codes with energy efficiencystandards. It’s expensive to develop and build in

this community. PJH: What advice do you have for the incoming

ED?cW: Put your armor on. I hope it’s somebody

that’s able to feel like it’s not a battle. It shouldn’tbe a battle in this community. It should be some-

thing that we all feel is important.I’ve always been happy to come to work. It’s a

great environment here at the TCHA offices. I al-ways enjoy a challenge. But it can feel a bit dis-couraging at times, like you are unable to makeheadway. This recycling of the issues [is frustrat-ing]. We just keep studying the problem to death,and keep making the same recommendations andchoosing not to implement them. So it’s our choicesas a community. I hope we recognize that we’ve hadso many experts look at this issue. It’s not unique toJackson Hole and we need to find places, dedicatethe resources, and educate the community aboutthe value of workforce housing.

PJH: What do you leave behind? What are youmost proud of?

cW: The Grove. Five-two-five Hall. The WilsonPark neighborhood. Those are the things that willlast longer than you or I. That’s the core of the job.You are providing housing for the workers. So whenyou see that come to life, that’s special. And seeingthe people get the keys to their new home for thefirst time. That’s pretty spectacular.

PJH: Are you normally there?cW: Actually, Billi [Jennings] gets to be there. She

gets all the fun. She always tells me about it, but Ihave my head down working on the next one.

PJH: Anything that haunts you? Anything youwere not able to accomplish?

cW: Bringing people together more. Really beingable to collaborate more effectively with the Hous-ing Trust and the town and the county. I’d say that’sthe most frustrating. It’s unfortunate. It doesn’tneed to be that way.

By Robyn Vincent

Most adrenaline-tinged activities have a heftyprice tag affixed. Now, I’m not referring to the dis-tinct threat of bodily harm (though perhaps I shouldbe). I’m talking dollars and cents – it’s expensive toamass gear for skiing, snowboarding, rock climbing,mountain biking, etc. But with skateboarding youneed only three things: a deck, a slice of pavementand a disgusting sense of dedication.

“It blows my mind the amount of pain skate-boarders are willing to go through to achieve splitmoments of success,” said Jeff Moran, Freeride Pro-gram director for the JH Ski and Snowboard Cluband co-organizer of the second annual Wild WestSkateboard Contest Series. “There are tricks peoplemight only land once in their lifetime and theamount of pain and suffering that skateboarders en-dure in order to achieve those goals is incredible.”

This weekend marks an opportunity to see justwhat Moran is talking about.

Moran, along with a few other devoted membersof the JH skate scene – Lauri Aittola of The Board-room, Claire Johnson of CJ Management and MikeEstes of Teton County Parks and Rec – are gearing up

to host the first installment of the 2014 skate seriesthis weekend at Jackson Hole Skatepark.

The 2013 inaugural competition was a historicmoment for the Jackson Hole skate scene. It was thefirst time the spotlight publicly illuminated some ofthe valley’s potent skateboarders and the skateparkthey destroy daily, which Moran says, a lot of folkssaid they didn’t know existed until then.

“It went incredibly well; way better than any of ushad planned,” Moran remembered. “We had twoevents with 85 entries over the course of both eventsand about 500 spectators showed up.” Even MayorMark Barron and State Rep. Ruth Ann Petroff madean appearance, Moran added.

This year the contest encompasses three events.Two will be held in Jackson Hole and one happens inDriggs. In addition, competitors who shred in theKetchum, Idaho, Skate Contest on August 23 will re-ceive points toward their overall standing in the WildWest series.

Similar to the 2013 event, this year’s comp is injam format. That means contestants skate simulta-neously, injecting the contest with a steady stream ofenergy. Moran said it makes for less nail biting, too.“We are essentially creating a more comfortable, fun,

competitive environment [with jam format] as op-posed to contests where your number gets called,you drop in and take your run and all the pressure ison at that moment,” Moran said. “The jam sessionthat was created last year was super high energy andit didn’t feel like a contest. There was a lot of cama-raderie and a lot of people supporting each other.”

Skaters can compete in street or bowl competi-tions in five different divisions for cash and awardstallied at more than $10,000. Awards also will bedoled to skaters exhibiting overall aptitude in bothcategories.

An avid skater himself, Moran describes skate-boarding as a lifestyle and an art form that feeds cre-ativity and spikes the imagination. It also gluestogether some unlikely characters. “Open a skate-board mag and so many walks of life are repre-sented,” Moran said. “Skating has the ability tobreak down cultural barriers and provide an activitythat is accessible to so many.”Wild West Skate Series, with registration from

noon to 1 p.m. and the first competition at 1:30p.m., Saturday at the Jackson Hole Skatepark, 1374Gregory Lane. Enjoy music, art and [email protected].

Raw and gruff and all that hillbilly stuff, Reverend Peyton’s BigDamn Band’s new album Between the Ditches debuted at numberone on the iTunes Blues Chart. Americana and Delta blues ispushed to the pavement over 250 tour dates a year for the trio,which is rounded out by Peyton’s wife, Breezy, and junkyard per-cussionist Ben “Bird Dog” Bussell. The era of their music can belinked to Peyton’s instrumentation on the last album—two 1930sNational guitars, a cigar box guitar, a custom shop Gibson flattop1929 L2 and an Airline map electric guitar. Stupendous perform-ers, they are. Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band, 9 p.m. on Wednesday at the

Pink Garter Theatre. $14-$17. PinkGarterTheatre.com.

Two kinds of countryA contemporary pop-country act can usually be spotted from a

distance via its fluorescent song titles. “Truck-N-Roll,” “Topless,”“That’s Why God Made a Front Porch,” and especially, “My Baby’sDaddy,” are dead giveaways for Georgian Craig Campbell. Theself-proclaimed sharp dresser will be joined by standout Ameri-cana group The Black Lillies at this year’s Teton County Fair Con-cert on Friday. The Black Lillies are fronted by the articulated Appalachian

drawl of frontman/guitarist/pianist/songwriter Cruz Contreras.His delivery and tone has drawn comparisons to Randy Travis,

Dan Tyminski and the great Ralph Stanley. While the similaritiesare warranted, production aesthetics of The Black Lillies’ studioalbums – combined with poetic lyrics and the rootsy singer-song-writer foundation – exposes the subtle, yet distinct elements thatdistinguish the Americana and (pop) country genres.Jackson Hole Live and Teton County Fair presents Craig Camp-

bell with The Black Lillies, 5:30 p.m. on Friday at Snow King BallField. Free, all-ages. JacksonHoleLiveMusic.com.

Lonesome Heroes bring fresh soundAustin’s The Lonesome Heroes have been burning up Highway

287 every year from Texas to Wyoming since 2006. Frontman/gui-tarist/songwriter Rich Russell is a troubadour if I’ve ever seenone. Russell recently recorded a new batch of songs with a newcast of memorable Heroes – Nick Lochman (vocals, upright bass),Gary Newcomb (electric guitar), and Dave Sims, Jr. (vocals,drums) – who will accompany him for a two-night run at The Sil-ver Dollar Bar. The Lonesome Heroes’ 2012 release DaydreamWestern won the Independent Music Award for Vox Pop, and justlast year, the band’s music was featured on ABC TV series,Nashville. Get ready for big hooks via Newcomb and a drivingrhythm section that has taken this band into a new dimension ofindie country-rockin’ goodness.The Lonesome Heroes, 7:30 to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday

Mountain Men come to the mountainsA splice of folk, blues, country and rock sounds like a dime-a-

dozen splice, but when it’s done with brotherly chemistry, multi-ple competent vocalists and interesting songwriting, it’s a homerun. Let’s meet The Coffis Brothers and The Mountain Men, whohave managed to put a contemporary step on golden era 60srock. Born and raised in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California,brothers Jamie and Kellen have a melodic flow that brings all ofthe classic elements together, not unlike the knack that Cree-dence Clearwater Revival had. You have two chances to catch thefive-piece this week. The Coffis Brothers and The Mountain Men, 10 p.m. on Thurs-

day at Town Square Tavern; 7 to 11 p.m., Monday at Q Road-house Restaurant and Brewery.

By Meg Daly

When Asymbol opens its gallery doors at11 a.m. on Tuesday, downtown Jackson willget a much-needed injection of contempo-rary culture. An online gallery since its in-ception in 2009, Asymbol is putting downphysical roots in the Pink Garter Plaza. A pioneer in the online art gallery world,

Asymbol is poised to follow up on their in-ternational success with a unique physicalgallery. The level of professionalism andcreativity coming from the company isimpressive, but they’ve had a low profilelocally, even though the company wasfounded by local snowboarding iconTravis Rice and snowboarder/artist MikeParillo. Representing artists from boardsports subculture, Asymbol has developeda broad market for their artists’ photogra-phy, prints, and paintings. In Jackson, however, they have flown

mostly under the radar – until now. Partnering with the snowboard shop The

Treehouse, Asymbol will round out theprogressive transformation of this down-town enclave to a contemporary andyouth-oriented environment. Combinedwith Dom Gagliardi’s music and art pro-gramming at The Rose and the Pink GarterTheatre, Pinky G’s Pizzeria and JacksonHole Coffee Roasters on the first floor, andsnowboarder Rob Kingwill’s new public artinstallation throughout the plaza, 50 West

Broadway is a don’t-miss destination forthe young and the progressive-minded.“We found the perfect spot in Jackson,”

said Alex Hillinger, Asymbol’s director.“We want people to understand thatAsymbol is a brand that says somethingabout our world and culture. Our artistsare manifesting that worldview.”Hillinger says that when people walk in

the gallery, they will have an immersiveexperience. “We want them to have an artexperience with our flavor of art. Our cul-ture has its roots in board sports, espe-cially surfing and snowboarding. They areexpression-type sports that are very per-sonal and connect to nature.”What this looks and feels like has yet to

be seen. At press time, Asymbol was stillputting finishing touches on interior con-struction and design. Hillinger said theyhave been obsessive about the details,consulting with Asymbol founders Riceand Parillo, as well as L.A. gallerist Carl E.Smith and local architect Vera Iconica.A key aspect of the new gallery is the

partnership with The Treehouse snow-board shop, which will occupy the store-front closest to Broadway. “Ourcollaboration with Treehouse is unique,”Hillinger said. “We are creating an experi-ence that combines an action sports com-pany with an art gallery.” The open floor plan between the two

businesses allows customers to easily me-

ander from one space to the other. Asym-bol art will occupy some wall space in TheTreehouse. However, the two businesseswill maintain their distinct identities. Thetotal impact speaks to the primacy ofsnowboarding and other board sports inthe lives of its aficionados.“These sports are spiritual to people,”

Hillinger said. “They define people’sidentities. You construct your life aroundthe sport.”Compared to most art galleries in Jack-

son, prices are moderate, with nothing morethan $1,500. Also for sale will be Asymbolmerchandise such as hats and sweatshirts. Hillinger said the company is commit-

ted to green building and sustainability,and tried to use those elements in theconstruction of the space wherever possi-ble. He cited Asymbol’s motto: “Respectthe Earth. Ride Waves. Empower Artists.”Asymbol’s vision is one that prizes indi-

vidual freedom and expression while pas-sionately engaging in the natural world. Inthat respect, it taps into a long tradition ofsubcultures drawn to and borne out of theTetons, from climbing to skiing, hunting torodeo. What’s new is an energized, urbanaesthetic that recognizes Jackson as a placein the world, rather than an escape.

An Asymbol/ Treehouse opening partyhappens 4 p.m., next Wednesday, July 30at the Pink Garter Plaza.

NIGHTLIFEGUIDE

Your insider’sguide to nightlifein the Tetons.

Are on here in Jackson on vacation? With family? I’mguessing you are likely experiencing stress.Are you a local navigating your valley at the height

of the season? If so, I don’t have to guess. According to a survey by the American Psychologi-

cal Association, 42 percent of adults report that theirstress level has increased during the past five years.Let’s start with the good news: your stress response

evolved as a survival mechanism, often referred to asthe fight/flight response your cave-dwelling ancestorsdeveloped to protect them from dangers you probablydon’t worry about today, like hungry tigers. Today, thatancient response resurfaces when you are picking thekids up from school, running late, or experiencing amid-summer Albertsons check-out line. Even thoughthese are not dangerous situations, our body respondsto them as a perceived stress and interprets them aschronic stress. Having been trained in Chinese as well as naturo-

pathic medicine, when I see a patient with a swollentongue, I first enquire about their day-to-day stresslevel. While most people define their own stress asemotional/psychological, our body has a muchbroader definition, including hypoglycemia, poorsleep, menopause/andropause, climbing the Grand,excessive work or exercise, bacterial overgrowth andmany more conditions.Your physiological response to stress is complex and

fascinating, even if you don’t love the results. First,your amygdala (the part of the brain responsible foremotional processing) sends a distress signal to thehypothalamus. The hypothalamus then signals the ad-renal medulla to secrete adrenaline, which initiatesthe fight/flight response, decreasing digestion and in-creasing heart rate, perspiration, pulse and bloodpressure. This is actually desirable for dealing withthat hungry tiger, but it’s doing you no favors when ithappens in response to that guy’s abrupt lane change.But your body isn’t done. Stress is also mediated by

the hypothalamus signaling the pituitary to secretethe hormone ACTH, which acts on the adrenal glandsto produce cortisol. Cortisol is responsible for bloodsugar, decreasing inflammation, lowering immunefunction and lowering digestive secretions. Both of these hormones should return to normal

but continuing stress events may cause these levels to

stay elevated leading to dysfunction, like fatigue,weight gain, anxiety, heart disease, memory impair-ment, sleep problems, chronic colds and digestivedysfunction. What helped your ancestors could behurting you today.Eliminating all stress in your life is beneficial to your

physical health, but not so easy to achieve. Six monthschilling on a Hawaiian beach or meditating in a Ti-betan cave might reset our systems, but most of us willneed to make changes at home.

As a naturopathic physician, I always seek to restorenormal function. Long periods of excess cortisol andadrenaline can leave our adrenal glands unable tokeep up with the pace. However, there are tests avail-able to evaluate cortisol and other hormones directlyaffecting the adrenal glands. The tests indicate if it isnecessary to use replacement therapy, but I always optfor supportive therapies to create better function. Afew supplements I use personally are B vitamins,specifically pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and vitaminC. These are found in whole grains and fresh fruits andvegetables. A couple of herbs that can be useful areSiberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) andlicorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra), which should beused with caution as it can increase blood pressure.Your doctor should monitor vitamin and herb interac-tions with medications.Here are some simple changes to decrease stress

that have extremely good results:1. Keep your blood sugar stable. Eat protein with

each meal, avoid refined carbohydrates and sugar andinclude a healthy snack between larger meals.2. Learn to meditate. Meditation helps calm the

mind and understand what provokes your stress re-sponse. You don’t have to go to a Buddhist monastery,as Jackson has several mediation groups that welcomenewcomers.3. Social support. Friends and family help sustain us

though times of stress. Helping a friend with his/herproblem also reduces your own stress level.4. Get some rest. Sleep is when we regenerate. This

also means enforced recovery time, for those whoexercise hard.5. Exercise. With so many hardcore athletes in JH,

it’s easy to forget that light exercise is highly benefi-cial. That short walk is totally worth it.6. Choose your words carefully. An interesting new

study shows that using phrases like “I’m swamped” and“I’m so busy” actually causes you to feel more stress.That caveman ancestor did you a big favor by dodg-

ing that tiger and preserving your DNA, but it’s time tounload the stress response he gave you. Who knows?You might be that guy patiently smiling on a powderday when the tram line is four cars deep.
