On this week’s Regional Roundup, we hear how officials in Teton County, Wyoming, are considering a resolution to recognize the role of immigrants in the community. Then we'll hear about an excavation for Ice Age fossils happening near Aspen next summer. After that, a report on how the record-breaking drought is impacting fall foliage this year. We'll then hear how the drought is impacting bears and why there have been more human bear conflicts this year. We'll then hear about the tiny town of Garfield, near Salida, in Colorado, which has been under a boil advisory for more than a month due to issues with their water system. We round out the show at 13,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains as we tag along on the Imogene Pass Run that took place in the San Juan mountains in southwest Colorado on September 12.
