Times’ World Cup skiing coverage is lacking
Dear Editor:
I was in Aspen last week and have been following the paper since. It seems the high school girl (Mikaela Shiffrin) from Vail won a World Cup slalom in Are, Sweden, and The Aspen Times didn’t pick up the story.
Beneath the real estate prices and furs, there remains a strong alpine culture in Aspen that should be covered. Any American winning a World Cup event is a big deal. A high school kid doing it is almost unimaginable. You need to carry alpine racing news.

Police took tremendous care to be thorough in investigation versus priest who eventually was cleared
Aspen Police this week released a redacted report detailing the 500 hours of investigation, including interviews of 86 witness and assistance from the FBI, of an ex-altar boy’s accusations from prison in 2021 of sexual abuse by a priest who had served at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in the mid-2000s.
