Mountain traveller 🏔🏃🏽‍♂️⛷🚴‍♂️⛺️ | Aspen, CO

It’s a busy spot these days, pretty much discove

It’s a busy spot these days, pretty much discovered and being loved to death, but still a favorite and always worth the trip.

I don’t know the best solution to management moving forward, but 50 vehicles at the trailhead and over 30 tents along the lake shore on a weeknight can’t really be considered sustainable. Maybe time for a reservation system like Conundrum Hot Springs?

Margy’s Hut last night. A family from out of tow

Margy’s Hut last night. A family from out of town wanted an experience out in the wild. And a big fire. But they all went to bed so it was just me. I think they were afraid of the dark?

It won’t be around for another 7000 years or so,

It won’t be around for another 7000 years or so, I figured it was worth a trip up the Pass to get a view. #neowise #independencepass

Back in the spring the three of us wet out to ski

Back in the spring the three of us wet out to ski Deer Mountain. We traveled beneath a really cool ridge all day long. At the end of the trip we all agreed to try to get back here someday to hike the entire ridge.

Thy day came sooner than we expected, and the three of us were able to traverse the entire 7 mile long “Boddington Ridge” all the way to Fryingpan Lakes Pass. What a fun day— weather surrounded us but never got bad and the 16 mile +5300 foot route was even cooler than we expected. Give it a look someday if you like semi-technical ridges. #13ers #ridgesallday #sawatch #fryingpanlakes #peakbagging

The motto “Always go” couldn’t have been more true yesterday on a 90% rainy day forecast. Amazing 25 mile loop through the high alpine of the Maroon Bells Snowmass Wilderness drenched with flowers and good spirits #alwaysgo #girlfriends #flowerpower🌸 #happy place #trailrunning #letheoutsidein

After a long day nothing resets my mind more than going to the garden and getting my hands in the dirt. I’ve read that this contact with specific soil bacteria, Mycobacterium vaccae, triggers the release of serotonin - our a happy chemical and natural anti-depressant. I don’t know if this is actually true but sure feels good...#grateful #happydirt #believer #eatlocal #growyourownfood #aspencommunitygarden

Managed to nab a nice lakeside vacation home with enough high 13ers in the backyard to keep us busy for days. Enjoyed ‘beaver works’ on the lake instead of fireworks and enough hail to make whisky 🥃 slushees! #natureshowstheway #highalpineliving #eagles #wildflowers #noonefordays #socialdistancing #fourthofjuly #lettheoutsidein

The world has changed a lot since 2018 when we were last able to run the Lake City 50. The benefits include thinking more about social, environmental, and health issues rather than race times and personal performance. But sure was nice to get to @lakecityco and the Divide this weekend with @kfranzmann and @AllenHadley for the ‘filet mignon’ of the course! Thanks @tedmahon for the handmade race awards- everyone was a winner! ⭐️ And the active recovery ride up Slumgullion and Spring Creek Pass didn’t disappoint! #lakecity21.5 #newgoals #trailrunning #continentaldividetrail #lakesancristobal #slumgullionpass #springcreekpass #icanseeformiles #lettheoutsidein #alwaysgo

Grateful to have the freedom to explore this amazing land of ours! 🏔 ⭐️ Thank you to all the people who have served and continue to serve our country. A little sad to see the snow quickly disappearing from the high country but looking forward to a little ☀️ 🦶 🏕 🙏
