We did a nice little 13ish-mile loop through the Holy Cross Wilderness over the weekend with the dog. Everything is slower, bulkier, and heavier when we take the dog, so we took a lot of breaks climbing the 3000 feet to the top of the mountains. We spent the night at over 11,000 feet at either Lake Charles or Mystic Island Lake (I honestly don't know or care) and then had an easy hike back out this morning. I highly recommend this loop for the natural beauty, but make sure to download a GPS map. #hiking #backpacking #coloradolife #eaglecolorado

Great little hike across Green Mountain yesterday. If you pinch and zoom, you can barely make out downtown Denver in the second and third photos. The smoke from the California wildfires makes it hard to see much of anything these days. #hiking

Last photo from the Cirque of Towers. There's something special about dawn hiking and watching the sunshine slide down the face of a mountain peak. #cirqueofthetowers #wyomingisbeautiful #hiking #backpacking
