Bonked pretty badly on Green, but wouldn’t have been so bad if the trails weren’t so messy.  03-23-2010Tue-AM:…

Wednesday’s snowstorm has proven to be a bit of a pain in the ass.  My buddy Jeff is gearing up for a classic Grand Canyon Double Crossing next month, and as such, was interested in logging a solid longer effort this week.  One that would help prepare him for…

(Gold Hill to the right, Green Mt to the left.) Toward the end of last September, Jocelyn and I were still relatively new to Boulder and wanted to explore.  The aspen leaves were in season and we were in search for some golden foliage.  With…
