Berthoud pass to Parry's peak hike 7/22/09

Here are pics from a hike from Berthoud Pass (Elev. 11315) to Parry's Peak, known as Bear Claw (Elev 13391). The hike took about 4 hours to up and another 6 or 7 to hike down due to the fact we chose a poor route which left us traversing extremely steep and loose terrain and crossing back and forth over a stream.

Maroon Belles. Aspen, Colorado 7/8/09

These are some pictures from a trip to Aspen to camp and see the Maroon Belles. A pair of peaks that top out over 14,000 feet...

The trip included camping, cooking out, drinking, hiking, and having to swim across a couple ice cold mountain run off rivers.

Camping 7/1/09

Here are some pictures from a little camping trip in the backyard (kinda).

Not exactly as off road capable as the old 4runner.



















Didn't have a cooler so I had to turn to Mother Nature.

The campsite.

Nothing big, just up to the top of a mountain that's it.
