Our favorite Colorado hikes of 2021

O

In my opinion, there are few things in life more awe-inspiring than standing on top of a mountain or on the shoreline of a high alpine lake. High altitude environments, where the climate is so unforgiving and oxygen so little that trees no longer are able to grow, have an enigmatic quality to them. If you time your hike just right, standing on a 13,000′ peak can feel like paradise. The sky is a...

Adrenaline Rush at The Devil’s Causeway

A

If you’re looking for an adrenaline rush, the Devil’s Causeway is where it’s at.  Since our first attempt to hike it in July (we got rained out…and slightly lost too), I’ve been psyching myself out in an attempt to find the nerve to cross it.  However, all the psyching out in the world won’t prep you for the adrenaline and delirium you will feel when...
