Taylor Peak

Saturday, August 8, 2015

It’s not too often that one of my weekend adventures doesn’t go according to plan, but unfortunately this is one of those trips. I had planned to climb Castle and Conundrum Peaks in the Elk Mountains on Sunday morning but ended up cancelling those plans when I experienced altitude sickness for the very first time on Saturday night and decided to head home instead…

The Great Sand Dunes

Friday – Sunday, April 30 – May 2, 2010

This last Thursday was Amanda’s birthday, so she got to choose where we went last weekend. After getting a taste of The Great Sand Dunes last August, she wanted to head back while Medano Creek was flowing. Since she ended up having Friday off from work, I ended up taking the day off as well, and we made our way down to Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve.
