Erik Howell tries his luck tossing rings onto Colorado 14er mountains Thursday at the Snowdown Radio 101 Warming Hut ring toss at Grassburger. Howell was trying to win two Snowdown Follies tickets or gift cards. The more accurate contestants are, the more chances they have to win in the drawing. The event draws about 100 contestants each year. (Jerry McBride/Durango Herald)
