We took the dog along for a fun little stroll around the Guanella Pass area above Georgetown, Colorado, this morning. It`s nice to see the snow starting to clear up at elevation.

The Crosmonaut soaking in the sun this morning. And dirt. Lots of dirt.

I`m glad that people want to take advantage of the weather these days, but it might be time to start hitting the trails a little earlier and getting a little farther from the parking lots. 😐

I knocked out a 15-mile loop hike in Golden to kick off the long weekend today. This is pieced together from just about every trail in the park, so it`s a taste of everything the area has to offer. Definitely worth checking out if you`re passing through.

You can`t really tell, but Red Rocks Amphitheater is right down there.

Just finished a weekend camping trip in southern Colorado. We got to drive the famous #MillionDollarHighway and grab a beer and some BBQ in Silverton.
The #OurayPerimeterTrail was the most rewarding short hike I have ever done. You climb up into the mountains (often on the edge of a cliff) and walk completely around the entire valley town of Ouray. It was absolutely spectacular. The foliage was in peak colors and the temperature was perfect.
It`s easy to see why Ouray is called the "Switzerland of the Americas." We got very lucky with this trip.
The next time we go, Jenny said that she will spend the morning at a day spa while I climb the #OurayViaFerrata. Click the hashtag to see what I`m talking about. 😉

Some photos from our trip to Rainbow Lakes in Indian Peaks Wilderness over the weekend. We also visited some of our favorite places to see the Aspen trees.

Finally made it to Hanging Lake in Glenwood Springs. I didn`t know about the upper falls until the gate attendant told us. I`m glad we didn`t miss it because it was such an easy side trail.

We got up above the tree line at around 12,000 feet in Arapaho National Forest today. Saw some waterfalls, enjoyed peak wildflowers, and played around with a tetanus farm in the form of abandoned mining equipment. Nice little Sunday.

It was hot and sunny, so we decided to hike up to a high altitude lake where it was not hot at all and the lake was frozen. Probably not the best use of an unseasonably warm day, but it was still fun. 🤷♂️

Nice little Christmas day hike. If you pinch and zoom, you can see downtown Denver on the horizon.

I had a frozen Boulder Falls all to myself today. This is between Nederland and Boulder in Colorado.

Nice little stroll around Red Rocks this morning.
