When you arrive at the top of the Gondola, look around for our new art installation with nativesoutdoors featuring "heniiniini'", the Arapahoe word for "there is snow on the ground".
The heniiniini’ art installation brings this story to life by showcasing four mountain outlines — Longs Peak, Mount Blue Sky, Byers Peak, and Parry Peak —which symbolize the four directions that ground us to this place. Winding its way down from the peaks, a river flows into the garden bed below and nourishes an array of native plant species during the summer. On
#WorldSnowDay especially, this functional purpose serves to remind us of the life-sustaining water kept in the snowpack we recreate on each winter.
