How to get to Flapjack

Flapjack is the infamous flat part of Peak 10 and the only way to get there is to ski one of the incredible double black diamonds or Cimarron on lookers-right of Peak 10. If you’re a snowboarder, be sure to keep your speed through this or else you’ll be unstrapping your board to do the walk of shame. I just love the name Flapjack and I love how many beautiful runs lead to this point. I recommend exploring the runs that lead to this one, but watch your knees early and late season because it can get exposed and sharky.

Flapjacks and fishing

Honestly the reason I chose the name Flapjack for this unit is because it reminds me of cabin and camping trips to go fishing. Nothing is better than waking up to the smell of coffee brewing over a fire and then making crispy brown pancakes for breakfast before heading to the river. This is one of my favorite collections at Wedgewood because of the nostalgia and connection humans all over the world have with fishing.

Group stands by a rustic log cabin in a forest setting. Clothes suggest early 20th century. Mood is calm, with mountains in the background. — **No title:** No description. My description: Three men and one woman stand in front of a small log cabin surrounded by trees. Two of the men hold fishing rods and have cigars in their mouths. The woman holds what appears to be leather gloves. There is loose lumber to the left of the cabin and mountains behind the forest in the background. *Original creator: Unknown date; Mary Marks.

My description: A blocky drawing of a man in a river wearing army green pants and an auburn button up shirt. Around his waist there is a basket and a net. He holds a fly fishing rod and flying overhead is a presumably United Air Lines plane. The text says “United Air Lines, Colorado.” *Original creator: Circa 1950s; Joseph Binder.*

Two people by a log cabin in a forest. One sits on a bench; the other fishes in a stream. Sepia-tone, calm, rustic setting. — **A man fishes while another pans for gold outside a cabin in Illinois Gulch, east of Breckenridge:** Two men outside a rustic log cabin in Illinois Gulch, east of Breckenridge, Colorado.

Newspaper page with articles about fishing. Includes black-and-white images of fishing gear, text about trout, and a story titled "Dream stream." — **Worshipping at the altar of the almighty trout:** As the saying goes, it’s not the size of the fish in the fight, but the size of the fight in the fish. Well, this brown trout didn’t have a lot of size, but boy what a fighter! After posing for a couple photos it went on its merry little way. *Original creator: June 7, 1992; Mark Fox.

A modern touch

At Wedgewood Lodge, we want to give you a distinctive look into the past history of Breckenridge. Each photo in your historical gallery is unique to your stay and took countless hours to curate. There are stories to tell about Breckenridge and Summit County today as well, and the following photos have been shot by Julia Anna Moore.

Snowy mountains at dawn with a purple and pink sky. The peaks are gently illuminated by early sunlight, creating a serene atmosphere. — A hazy sunset paints over Loveland Pass

Spring 2022

A fluffy snow had fallen all day, and as the sky cleared up in time for sunset. Pinks and purples stretched over the peaks as the temperature dropped, welcoming in the night.

Loveland Pass is the perfect place to take in the view, just be sure that you have 4WD if it’s been snowing and park off the road in the parking lot.

The sun sets, lighting up the Continental Divide that has grown quiet as guests have left the resort for the day.

Arapahoe Basin is an advanced mountain at the other end of the county.
