frozen dead guy days

There is a frozen corpse in a shed in Nederland, Colorado. Apparently this is a reason to celebrate. My outdoor group will be entering the coffin race. I plan on dressing as the Son of Svengoolie.

So why is there a frozen corpse in Nederland? The ever-useful Wikipedia explains it all.

Nederland is a great little town. I imagine it's where the ex-hippies without money settled down, as opposed to the affluent hippies of Boulder. Last time the wife and I were in Nederland, we ate at a little pizza joint staffed by pot-head kids. They were talking about when they had lived in Boulder, and one said "You know why it's so windy in Nederland? Because Boulder sucks."
