Crusing was unbelievable, and I’d positively do it once more, however my coronary heart actually belongs within the mountains—particularly in the course of the summer time. My favourite seasons right here in Colorado are late spring, summer time, and early fall. This previous week, I have been thrilled to get again on my favourite mountaineering trails. There’s nothing just like the contemporary air, breathtaking views, and the pure exhilaration of a brisk hike! We have had quite a lot of rain over the previous two weeks, resulting in a number of mudslides and flooding on the town. A number of roads and passes have been closed consequently.
Not a lot to share this week—I’ve been busy catching up on life. I am glad I discovered time to get outdoors and hike repeatedly, although. There’s at all times a lot to do, is not there? Listed here are some pictures from my hikes—they had been positively the highlights of my week! Solely onward and upward from right here! August is flying by on the pace of sunshine!
