Hot weather is fast approaching and a pair of Keen Targhee low hikers looked like just the ticket for summer hiking comfort. The Targhee is a durable leather and mesh waterproof boot with just the right mix of protection, weight and breathability. Colorado 14ers are my passion but summiting one of these beasts means many … Continue reading Field Testing Keen Targhee II Hiking Boots
Interesting day... Sitting at the Donut Mill collecting my thoughts as I realized that it was this exact day that my wife went in to hospice down in Colorado Springs two years ago. The cancer had spread everywhere it seemed and there was no more hope. On March 5, 2015 she passed, ending six long … Continue reading The Darkness and the Light
Sangre de Cristo, meaning "Blood of Christ", according to this article in Wikipedia. Here in Colorado it is also a rugged and magnificent mountain range, one that I have been meaning to photograph in winter with just the right light for a long time. I knew that recent snow storms and cold temperatures were creating … Continue reading Sangre de Cristo Mountains
Wow... been a long winter. Here on the north face of Pikes Peak there isn't much to photograph during the dark winter months. Between the winter and spring travels of the sun on the other side of the equator, Pikes Peak sits in the frozen silence of a season without sunlight. Although fascinating to watch, … Continue reading Spring 2017
Today I'm continuing my photographic journey through the last few years looking for the best images to upload to the Adobe Stock Photo library... Funny, I forget a lot of things from the past, but when I see these images I can pretty much remember the exact moment of each capture. If it weren't for … Continue reading Photographic Journey
The annual mass migration out of the mountains on Labor Day is in full swing... Thousands of cars, RV's, and camper trailers streaming out of the mountains on their journey back to the cities. Can't say I'm sorry to see them go. I know they are supposed to be good for business in the state … Continue reading End of Summer 2016
This was a rough month, from sheer craziness including my ax wielding neighbor and the loose dogs to unexpected financial expenses including a few extra unexpected road trips in my gas guzzler truck. Picture sales always dip in the summer and I took a couple days off of work to climb mountains so needless to … Continue reading The Pawn Shop
Working on the right life / work balance... I'm finding that four nights on the loading dock and a 14er on the weekend may be just a little bit much for my chronologically challenged body ... So I asked my boss to cut me back to three loading dock marathons per week and thankfully it … Continue reading Balance
Wasn't quite physically ready to climb another 14er just one week after Mount Massive, but I didn't get the days off I wanted and that's the way the chips fell. I didn't want to wait until the 20th to climb another one, so I called Ralph to see if he was ready to give another … Continue reading Hiking Mount Harvard Colorado
I think I've discovered an axiom, there are no unfriendly people at 14,000 feet of elevation. I've never encountered one anyway! Perhaps it is because life's problems can't survive the thin air there, they melt away when the summit comes into view. Well anyway, I have summit fever again this week and am preparing for … Continue reading No Unfriendlies at 14,000 feet
