  1. Boulder Sunrise Session

    All week I was gearing up to head for the mountains on Saturday, but forecasted 60+ mph wind gusts just didn’t sound all that appealing.  So, I decided to stay low again I couldn’t make up my mind what to do.  I had some ideas, but the snow conditions weren’t…

  2. Behind the Photo - Force of Beauty

    I arrive at the trailhead in the dark.  The wind, blowing hard enough to shake the car.  It’s one of those mornings that you sit in the car talking yourself into getting out.  Have you been there? Coffee finished, boots on, I hit the trail.  Given how warm and dry…

  7. Golden Gate Canyon State Park Loop

    While most flock to Colorado’s more popular national parks, I’ve decided to do more exploring of the state parks this year.  I haven’t always ignored the state parks.  I’ve scaled a lot of the rock walls and flew down the trails back when rock climbing and mountain biking was what…
