A couple weeks ago, we took a road trip to Wyoming. We camped a few days… Continue reading Yellowstone/ Wyoming Trip
Hiking a 14er
This hike actually took place about 4 weeks ago. We just love to torture ourselves by getting up at 3:00 am to hike a 14er at the crack of dawn (to avoid any afternoon thunderstorms)! The 14er we hiked was at Grays Peak, located about 2 hours west of Denver. The views were beautiful and… Continue reading Hiking a 14er
