Weekend Events Roundup: POWDER, Mile High Grilled Cheese and Beer Fest, speed dating, ice skating & more

Welcome to your Weekend Events Roundup — a curated list of different activities, events and news around Denver (and some stuff in the mountains) for the weekend of Feb. 14, 2020. Check out Denverite or The Denver Post for an eclectic mix of stories and happenings every week.

ICYMI:

HUMBLE, HUNGRY, HAPPY: CrossFit Colfax, one of Denver’s top CrossFit gyms, joins the Cornerstone Card
WHAT’S THE DILL?: The Real Dill brings homemade pickles, Bloody Mary mix to Cornerstone Card
YOU ARE WHAT YOU (M)EAT: Pasture Provisions includes farm-to-door delivery on the Cornerstone Card

WINTER PARK EXPRESS + POWDER

WHEN: All weekend / Amtrak train leaves at 7 AM and drops you at Winter Park at 9 AM
WHERE: Union Station (1701 Wynkoop) to Winter Park Resort, and back
COST: One way tickets start at $29
WHY YOU SHOULD GO: This is a really awesome experience in itself, but especially with the recent dumps in Colorado’s Front Range and northern mountains. Travel has been insane along I-70 and 40 with road closures and delays from weather and avalanche mitigation, on top of the normal ski traffic. Take the train. The snowpack has been deliciously magical at Winter Park with plenty of powder stashes — sniff yourself out some rowdy lines, you friggin’ powder hound.

WHEN: Fri. Feb. 14, Sat. Feb. 15, Sun. Feb, 16
WHERE: Downtown Aquarium (700 Water St)
COST: $130 per couple – reservations required
WHY YOU SHOULD GO: This just seems kinda cool — the “Sweetheart Package” includes a four-course dinner for two and two glasses of champagne, which would be way cooler if it were two glasses of champagne per person.
