SUBJECT: S'leigh Bjle [gcilities
0n the same day as your visit to the Spraddle Creek site during the week of August 6'
I would like you to set aside about 30 minutes to vjsit a proposed sleigh ride site.
I have discussed at previous Council nreetings the importance of establishing a per-
manent sled traiI and destination for the s"l eigh ride operation. Simi'lar t0 the
livery stable, the nature of this operation r'equires the use of public ground.
A sleigh ride dinner activity is an expected amenity at wjnter resorts. Each of
our ski area competitors has one. Destination fac.i Iities for the dinner service at
other resorts range from tents to primitive homestead cabins to the long-standing
tradition of the Trai'l Creek Cabin at Sun Va11ey.
!.Ie know.that a'l I of those operations must be in ihe food service business to make
a profit. Our net loss figures for t.hree years of operating the sleigh ride without
0ur own food service confirm that fact.
Vail's Master Pl an did not anticipate the demand for this service so no!,, at year 22
'i n order to keep up with services offered by other areas, t.le must search for the right
spot with the ri ght access and a program that wi'll be different enough to make the
sleigh ride experience in Vai'l an extra specia'l event.
lrle have the program and you, as the stewards of the Town owned'l and, control the access
routes and destination sites. The Recreation Distflict wi1'l only consider a one-year
term on ground they control . This along with a lack of utilities on the s'ite we used
labt year creates problems rathen than so'lving them.
There is an alternate site from the one recently submitted to the env'ironmental health
officer that so'lves many problems, the nost important of which is the avai'labi'lity of
a'll utilities. The sjte is on the Katsos property and appears to be very wel'l suited
for this activity. Peter Patten has visited the site with me and shares my enthusiasm.
The use of this site would require a zoning amendment and the solution to a minor
access probl em.

VAIL TO}IN COUNCIL
Juiy 23, .i984
SUBJECT: the lmpact of Currently Proposed Development o1 tle Vail Horseback
The purpose of this memo is to recap the remarks that I made at the joint meeting
ffi1 ann'ing Conmission on July 10, 1984.
Horseback riding is part of our recreational bundle of goods the same as the goif
Eoursel-Tennls courts, ski hi11, ice arena and playing fields. The very nature
of the activity requires that it occur 0n public around. The present site at
Spraddle Creek is on Forest Service ground under a 10 year term pernit. As is
the case'in most 0f these permits, the Forest Service reserves the right to cance'l
the permit on any anniversary w'ith thirty (30) days' notice.
The site was chosen by the Forest Service and rne in l980 as the only workable pl ace
in the Gore Creek Va11ey for resort oriented stable faci'lities. If this area does
not remain viable as a I ivery stable, al'l Vaii guests that want to ride will have
to go 14 miles to Piney Lake or l2 mi1es to Beaver Creek.
The site is presently being impacted by the proposed Vail Associates'development
the site. It is my understanding thai the Town
staff has had dialogue with Vail Associates on an annexation - zoning agreement.
That dialogue does not address the need for horseback access through the proposed
deve'i opment. Further, the proposed road goes right through the stable facility and
the present tent camp housing facilit'i es.
I had hoped that my presence in the audience during the discussion of the Vail
Associates Project would have inspired soneone on the Counci'l or P1 anning Commission

Peter Patten and Pat Dodson rode for one hour with their park report, that Spraddle Creek is an extna-tle only place I know wtere you can get a true

und
and it will not pay for the rea1ly first-class facility that this community should
have.
Therefore, in the long term the horse facilities shou'i d be owned by the Town. The
operation should be leased to a good operator and then Vail will have a summer activity and facility that we can be proud of as'l ong as the resort is in operation.
If you agree with this premise
e taken:
'1 . The livery stable operator shoul d be made aware of the Town's concern for the continuing of his operat.ion as a publ jc recreation service.
Z. A dialogue should be started with the operator regdrding possib.l e public
ownership 0f the facilities and his continued ro1 e as operator.
3. Vail Associates should be made aware now of community expectat"ions with
regard to horseback access through the proposed development.
4. Vail Associates shou'l d be made aware now of community expectations w'i th
respect to relocating the stable to a different part of the Spraddle Creek site if the deve.l opment access road adversely impacts the stab'l e.
5. The Town must urge the Forest Service to re-think the priority of disposing of
the Spraddle Creek site -- not because of its importance as an urban park, but
as a public recreation facility that accesses thousands of acres of public
land for more than 5000 horseback riding visitors each summer season. Th'is
has been viewed as a 26 acre site witlr little value as pubJic land while it
shouJd be viewed as a 50,000 acre public site with irreplaceable pubiic value.
5. In conc'lusion, subsequent to the July 10 worksession, I had the opportunity to talk with Mayor Rod S'l ifer and duri ng that conversation, he suggested that the
Counci1 members vjsit the site during the week of August 6, 1984.
Marc Wentworth, the stable or{ner, and tr look forward to showing you the Spradd'l e Creek site and the wilderness country that horseback riding visjtors see on the one hour ride. A 5:00 P.lil . meeting time would be best for us and wou'ld allow the Counci'l
members a nearly fu11 day in their respective businesses. I would encourage you
to 'i nvite Mr. Stark to join you so that he can see first-hand the level of your
interest and the land in jeopardy,

Peter Jamar pr:csented the meino and cr4:lained that there could be no parking on the
road, for j-t r{'as used for snow cats in the winter. The applicants explained that if
they built the garage on the other sj,de of the house, it would block the view of the
nei.ghbors across the road. Peter added that the restriction origirrally asked for by
the Public }irork s Department of having a 15r drainage easement along the east- property
line had since been removed when it tras discovered that the drainage could be taken

Jin Morgan noved and Scott seconded to approve the conditional use permit as stated
in the staff memo, but for a 5 year period and with the conditions that the course
rust be renoved by October 15 each year and that daily the operation must close by
10:00 p.n. The vote was 6-0, unanimous.
5. A reque.st for a conditional use permit for 10 years_at 100 North Frontage Road,
the Spraacif-e-Cieek Ranch, to construct barns, corrals, fences, cabins, etc, to accoruno
date from 40 to 60 horses, 30 cars and the people necessary to operate the livery stable
business which would j.nclude trail rides, wagon rides,'sleigh rides and other related
activities. Applicant: Roger Tilkemeier.
Peter Patten presented the meno and sumnari ze the staff concerns in it which included
the visibility of the parked cars frorn the Interstate and frontage roads, which the staff
felt must be screened, the revegetation of the fill banks, the fact that there mrst be
adequate water and sanitation facilities. The staff wanted highly visible and
easily understandable signage, at the intersection with the Frontage Road.
Roger voiced objection to the concern of the visility of the cars. He state that one
of the Forest Service concerns was that he have plenty of parking and not on the Forest
Service road except for overflow parking. Di,ck Ryan nentioned receiving conplaints
frorn people about seeing the horse trailer last year. Roger indicated that the trailer
would be parked far up the r:oad behind a building. He added that he !'nats to run a
4-horse team to the Transportation Center to pick up 20-25 people which rnay eliminate
rnuch parhing need. He adnitted that the cars would be vj-sible if one were driving east
on either the North Frontage Road or the Interstate, Peter Pattenrs concern with the
view frorn the vi1lage. Jjm Paxon of the Forest Service stated the FS was concerned that
Roger have adequate parking spaces, and that they have demanded that the road be kept
open to the public and naintained. Roger naintained that this surnmer operation was no
different frorn the winter operation in which the parked cars in toun werc very visible.
He added that these cars would be at least 1000 feet fron people driving past.
Duane Plper felt that cars pa.rked in .an urban area had less impact that cars parked
in an othe..-wise unblemished hillside. Jim Morgan suggested that the PEC grant a one
year pe-rnit until they could see what impact the cars nright have. Roger felt that he
couldlrt operate on a one year basis only. After r;lrch discussion of the issue, the
nembers went out to the parking lot to vj-ew the hilt-side where the cars r.'ould be. It
was mentioned that since some of the cars woul.d be visj.ble anyway, why argue over 7 addi-
tional cars? Gerry White was not satisfied r^,'ith Roger's-not conplying with the lst condi-
tion to scl:een the cars from view, He was concerned with the people in the condos of
the village being able to see the cars, too, and felt tlris was one conplaint from the
Town residents he felt strongly in synpathy with.
Discussion followed concernin.g slope stablization, revegetation, and sanitation and water
supplies. Roger stated that he would have the revegetation finished before July 15,
1981, and that he has tapped a sprlng for rvater, that temporary sanitary farcilities
rrrould be used this year, because he wasntt .ab1e to start construction last fall. He
has an agt:eenent with VA to use their shower facilities. He stated that there would
be 13 people livj.ng on the site, with 2 living about 1-1/2 mile up the rnountain at the
chuck wagon site. He planned to construct a self contained sanitary facility this fall.
He stated that he would use sodiun chloride or oi1 on the road to contain the dust.
Jirn Morgan moved for approrral , seconded by Ga14s1 Mi-l1er the request for a conditional
use pernit for 10 years as stated j.n the staff meno, and with the conditons in the tnemo
with thc exception of #1, visibility of cars. The vote was 4-1 in favor, with Gerry
White vot.ing again-st the rneasure, rcpeati.ng that he felt the cornplairtts about the cars
were irlportant.
Duane noved, and Gaynor seconded to adjourn at 4:45. Unanimous.

We have not received any input stating that there have been signifi-cant negative '- impacts at the Vail Road iniersection due to traffic fron the iivery stable. Highly visible and easily understandable signage should be used at this intersection to insure the safe ingress and egress for the business, The staff is also concerned about the possible visibility of cars parked on the site. The site plan shows numerous spaces . near the southern Property li.ne, close to the Interstate and Frontage Roads. We would like to have graphic proof that these cars would not be visible fron the roads below or a guarantee that. they be screened fron view.

Effect upon the character of the area in qhigh lhe proposed use is to be located,
fhe location of the proposal , surrounded on 3 sides by Forest Service land and I-70
on the south, Prevents any negative inpacts fron being created. A minor nuisance
on occasion is the odor frorn the stables, but there really is not nuch to be done to prevent this. Ihe snooth operation of the livery stable last sutmer has relieved
uuch of the staffts concern about the location of the busi.ness.
SucI other_factors and cliteria as the Comrnission deerns appiicable to the proposed uje
The staff is very concerned that the fill banks on the entire site, but especially the ones visible from the roads below, be adequately revegetated and quickly. The current fill on the site will require topsoil to be placed over it and then re-veget.ated.
A plan for this process should be subnitted and the revegetation completed by
July 15, 1981 ,
The environrnental rt concernins the osed use. if an environnental

be approved based on the following findings:
That -the proposed location of the use is in accord with the purposes of this ordinance and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. -
That the proposed location of the use and the conditions under which it or rnaintained would not be detrimental to the piruric health, safety, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.

Re: ISDS -NUTT.SHELL
Gentl emen
The Guidelines on InCividual Sewage Disposal Systems promulgated by
the Colorado State Board of Health llay 16, 1979 provided the opportunity for acceptance by the Department in the form of Certification of a
systeni that employs mechanical apparatus in processing sewage influent. This, providing that valid test information attesting to the reliability and performance of the system is provided.
This information has now been furnished to this Department and I anr pleased to say, that as of this date, vre can now attest our Certification, as indicated by the Guidelines, to this system.
l,iay i again take this opportunity to thank you for your patience
in this Iong drawn-out wajt.
if we rnay be of any further assistance, p1 ease do not hesitate to

I wish to comnuntcate with you regarding our NUIT -SI{ELL On-site Sewage
Treatment Systen. You are protably d::awing nearer a point in tine which
will requlre your decision as to which type of sewage systen you w1II
be using in your horne or c onunerc j-a 1 project.
I urge you to give this decisi-on careful cons j-d.e::ation as a conventional
sepblc system has a linj-tation on its capbilities as well as lts life;
therefore, I feel our NUTT -S[{ELL systen has sorne outstand.ing advantages
that realIy nn. ke it the most ptacticaL and econonical choice over the
long run .
The IIUTT-SIIEI,L is a revolutionary concept in r.aste d-isposal . The systen
produces a high qua I ity effluent through an aeration and biologlcal
treatment process sinrilar to that used in large treatment plant processes.
Each unit wll-I process up to a thousand gallons of d-oriestic sere.ge da 5-Iy
and are rnodular in nature; so when anticipated flows exceed a thousand
gallons per day the required. nurnber of NUTT-SHELLS to ha"ndle thls flow
can be assembled in series.
The NUTT-SHELL systen is unique in +.hat in add-it ion to trand ling the sewage
from your home or corunerclal project, we utilize an und.erground drip
irrigatlon system as a rTreans of effluent disposa)-. So we take the sefage
fron your home or conmercial project, whi-ch c onta j-ns u'ater you have al-read-y
IE- id" for once, and converL it tacl< i-nto rratet that is high in nitre.te and.
phosphate content (ferLiltzers) and evenly d-istribute 1t in an area. or
areas tbat you rnay wish to utillze as a lawn, garden, greenbelt, etc.
Arrong others, the NUT-f-StmLL has been accepted by the following nretropolLtan
health depa.rLments; Tri-County Department of Health, Jefferson County
Depa.rtment of' Health, and Boulder County Depa.rLment of Healttr.
Enclosed please find sone taterial on the NUTT-S}{ET",L. You will note tLra'r,
this is a warranted systen and I wlfl be more than happy to furnish you
with references 1f you so desire.
Will you please take the -r,ine to era.nlne the enclosed. infornration on this
intriguing systen r.iith alnost unllnlied capabilities and- then give ne a call.I r.ril1 be pleased to have the opporbunity to d-iscuss the NUTT-SHEIL with you
in greater detail for your individual needs.

Thank you for your interest in
Sys'tem.
Ihe Nutt-Shell System was
portion of 1973, and has been
sewage treatment problems
years.
The Countuy Living Company has enjoyed phenomenal success and
growth while providing the homeowner and commercial user with a sewage
heatment system which works in sub-zero temperatures, rainfalls of over 120
inches per year, perculation rates of 400 minutes per inch, and in the case of
larger developments, a pressure system which transports heated effluent direct-
ly to a city heatment facility.
It is our hope that we can work .with individual county officials and
customers to provide a more effective means of sewage disposal.
The Nutt-Shell System will give you the confidence of knowing that you
are using the finest means of sewage treatment and disposal. This is accom-
plished by employing a treatment process which produces an effluent reduced
in solids and biological oxygen demand approximately 95% as opposed to a
30% reduction in conventional septic tanks. This enables us to disperse the
treated effluent evenly in Ir/q inch P.V.C. pipe through t/rinch holes. It may
seem amazing that an effluent this "water-like" in consistency can be produced.
What is more amazing is that this same effluent, high in dissolved oxygen and
teaming with the nuhients plant life thrives on, will sub-irrigate your lawn or
garden forever. Department of Agriculture tests show drip-inigation to be the
most effective means of irrigation available.
What this means to all of us is that a sewage disposal system is finally
becoming available that will: (1) allow us to develop land other than our fine
agricultural ground, which should be preserved for the future, (2) take the fear
of leach field failure out of sewage disposal, {3) re-use our precious water sup-
ply, and (4) provide for a cleaner tomorrow!
Please feel free to call on us so a representative can personally supply you
further details on how the Nutt-Shell System may help meet your needs.
Thank you.

Grouse Creek Livery Ltd. a Colorado corporation, intends to operate a cornmercial resreation horse facility on Forest Service
Lnads, open to the public for day rides, pack trips and chuckhragon meals. The primary area of operation is on BaId Mountain in the
Spradd.le and l,liddle Creek drainages. Pack trips and hunting camps are anticipated usages, but may not be offered in 1980. l4ost day tides and all- pack trips will be 1ed by an Eagle's Nest vrrangler,
however, "qualified" riders may be allowed to ride independently
on des.ignated trails.
II. Operations
Guide Qualifications:
o Alt guides will be experienced horsemen with the following additional qualifications :
Current and val-id " nevr course" standard first aid card.
Emergency procedures.
High country horsemanship and etiquette.
Local history, wiLdlife and wild flower knowledge.
Forest Servi.ce policies and enforcement proced-
ure.
Trips generally w5-11 begin and end at the stable facility at'
Spraddle Creek, however, there may be occasional trips that begin
and end at other locations, such as Grouse Creek, Beaver Creek and
Gore Creek. When Forest lands are involved in these special trips,the Forest Service will be notified prior to leaving and upon re-turn.
Base Facilities:
Base facilities will be located at the nouth of Spraddle Creek generally in the area identified in red on the attached map.
fn the 1980 operating seasons, base facilities will be min-imal because of time restrietions prior to the beginning of the season. They will include the following:
o Ranch type gate with appropriate overhead sign at fence }ine where metal gate is presently located on the access road.
\
-1-
.'G
o
Tent camp facilities which will- include sheepherder
type tents with wood burning stoves and wood floors
for accomodating livery personnel will be located
in the aspen grove along Spraddle Creek. Toilet
facilities will be porta-johns of vault toilets.
If a satisfactory and acceptable grey water dis-posal system can be developed this season' a cook
and mess tent and appropriate propane faciLities
may be included along with shower facilities.
Qtherwise, these facilities will be provided off
site.
If the smal1 1og building with the curved roof can
be moved economically from Meadow Mountain this
spring, it will- be used as a saddle room. Otherwise
tents will be used to store saddles.
Hay storage will be outside. Grain storage will be
in a tent or a rustic building acceptable to the
Forest Service.
Pole corrals and fences will be built in accord-
ance with a design to be submitted to the Forest
Service for approval with respect to location.
florse shelter may be provided in the corrals
using pole supports and painted metal or asphalt
roofing.
Office facilities may be provided in a tent or the building presently being used for an office at
Dowdts Junction.
q
o
o
o Public toilet facilities in the form of Porta-johns or vault toilets be provided.
o
o
An attempt will be made to secure electrical
service this summer. If it is economically not
feasibLe, gas or lantern lighting will be used.
Stockwater will be taken from Spraddle Creek. A
certain amount of grading, road work and other site preparation will be required. This work will be
coordinated with and approved by the Forest Service
on the site. The above facili.ties are considered
temporary for the I9B0 season. A long range de-
velopment plan which will include permanent kitchen,
mess hall, toilet and shower facilities for employees
office, barns pens, corrals, landscapingr etc. lvil]
be submitLed by July 15, 1980 along with a request for
a long term permit which will al1ow the improvements
to be financed and amortized over the term of the
-2-
FI
Permit. Crew facilities under this long term plan
shaLl continue to be temPorary in the forn of a
tent camp. It is anticipated that the log cabin
now at Dowdrs JuncLion will be used for kitchen,/
mess hall facilities and the barns at Do!,tdrs
ilunction wj.l-l be moved and used on the Spraddle
Creek site if feasible. A porch on the big barn
will. be constructed for guest shelter and a por-
tion of the Srorch will be enclosed for a permanent ' office.
Chuckwagon Operations :
o Eaglers Nest Livery will operate two chuckwagon meal
sites designed to serve breakfast, lunch and supper.
One site will be selected in lower country for early
season operation, however, in peak time periods, the
sites may be operated simultaneously to satisfy mar-
ket demand.
o Site Size: Each site will be selected for accom-' odation of up to approximately 150 people.
o Site Facilities: Each site shal1 have the following
facilities:
Area for working horse demonstrations.
Hitch rails or corrals for horses.
Parking spaces for vehicles.
Public toilets - (porta-johns of vault toilets)

guests.
: ::":l::'"::'::":::;'::::=n,."
It is anticipated that each site will have in addition' the
following listed facilities, however, in the early years of oper-
ation, only one set of these facilities may be required and will
be moved between sites as necessary:
o Chuckwagon.with fly.
o Canvas shelt.ers for picnic tables.
-3-
u't
food preparation
screened for gas
required.
o Camp $tagon for atmosphere and accomodation of chuck-
r'tagon ciretaker/cook to ;lrovide security for camp
and equiPment.
Campsites
' o WhiLe pack trips and hunting camps will be part of
Eagle'l Nest Livery's long range operating pJ-an,
these activities will not be promoted in the 1980
operating season. Campsites when needed will be at
the headwaters of Middle Creek and other locations
mutually accePtable to the Forest Service and
permittee
llorse Trails:
Present livestock and other trails along $tith the roads
will provide the basis for riding trails in the spradd,le creek'
Irlidalle Creek and Bald Mountain area. There is no doubt that
other trails will be required to provide variety for the day
rides. These trails wilL le developed with the Forest Service
to provide maximum pleasure for guests with the least possible
impact on forest lands.
Roads:
The Spraddle Creek road is to remain open to the Public
although uniocked gates may be placed across the road at sel-
ected locations foi stock Lontrol'and to define compound bound-
aries. The Forest service and permittee shall monitor public
vehicular traffic on the road during the season to deterrnine
the leveL of conflict and degree of safety in combined horse,/
vehicle use.
Winter Use:
If a satisfactory route and facil-ity can be worked out
the permittee amy request permission to oPerate winter horse
draw-n sleigh dinner excursion. It is understood that another
permittee is providing snow cat tours and ski bobbing activ-
iti"s in this same area. There should be no conflict between
these operations, and may eompliment them.
Grazing:
The Forest Servibe and permittee will investigate graz-
ing possibilities and location of drift fences this summer with
trr6 iaea of providing grazing for up to 350 A.u.Mrs in the Red
Sandstone allotment. Grazing will be managed in a manner not
to conflict with other livestock grazing permits.
