Ullr
Richard A. Jagoda
Almost every year since 1963, Breckenridge has honored the Norse god of skiing, Ullr, in a raucous annual festival that beseeches the skies to open and drop their bounty of crystalline gold. Seen by many as the bringer of snow, Ullr is idolized in this metal sculpture by the late Richard Jagoda, who was a key character in the antics of the early Ullr Dag—as the festival used to be known—and among the first ski instructors at Breckenridge.
