Bard Peak is a Front Range 13er that we had never heard of, and to our surprise was a really sweet ski descent.

Spring Season

Spring Season

Apr 4, 2018

The days are longer, the temperatures warmer, and the snowpack, though thin, is stablizing. We love the arrival of spring because it signifies the start of our backcountry ski touring season.

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?

I love stopping to experience the awe of the mount I love stopping to experience the awe of the mountains or the wonder of nature. Makes me feel like a tiny part of a massive universe. This sensation of being a small speck within such a grand ecosystem also has the power to make us kinder and more generous people. #lettheoutsidein @stio

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
