ICE arrests

Homeland Security Investigations, which is a division of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, executed search warrants at two locations in Summit County on Sept 16. Federal agents searched a Mexican restaurant in Frisco and a home in Dillon Valley. Voces Unidas said at least two workers, a cook and a waiter, were taken into custody by federal agents. The immigrant advocacy group verified the detainments by using ICE agency databases after speaking with family members of the detained workers.

Gun violence protest

Summit High School students walked out of school the afternoon of Sept. 17 as part of a movement to protest gun violence following the Evergreen High School shooting, in which two students were injured, one critically. One organizer said he and other students across the state participated in the walkout because they don’t want a reality where schools have to prepare students for shootings — they want a reality where students don’t have to worry about that. 

Fall colors

Tree health, drought, daylight, rainfall, elevation, heat and wind can all play a role in when fall colors hit their peak. This year, the Colorado Rocky Mountains are expected to reach full color in mid- to late September, according to a new outlook from OpenSnow. Drought conditions led some aspen trees in the High Country to change colors as early as mid-August this year. Some experts report, however, that the healthier forests will still see a typical fall change around a week earlier than normal and with slightly muted colors.
