Marka Webb Moser shared her amazing life story and community contributions in this 2017 Vail Valley Voices oral history with Walter Gallacher.
Moser grew up in Colorado Springs but has made Vail and Eagle County home for most of her adult life. She skied a number of fledgling Colorado ski areas as a child and youth, many of which are no longer operating. During the 1960s, her family fell in love with Vail and her uncle, sports broadcaster Bud Palmer, bought one of the first condominiums at All-Seasons from Rod Slifer.
Marka Moser has been involved with education reporting for local newspapers, local schools activities, numerous local nonprofit organizations, and water rights activism for Vail and the Eagle River Watershed. Moser’s story is also featured in an important local history publication, Women of Vail: Those Who Walked This Bridge 1962 - 1970, by Elaine White Kelton and Carolyn Pope.
