Larry Raff, wearing sheepskin and a Viking-style helmet with horns, stands with Jon and Betty Jo Ballard in front of the Bergenhof Bar and Restaurant, located at the base of Peak 8 of the Breckenridge Ski Area. In 1963, Breckenridge held its first Ullr Dag (day) Festival, named for Ull, the Norse god of winter and skiing. Raff often held the honorary title of "Ullr King", including the celebration held in 1967.
