CO in 10 days

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I've been in CO since the first day of July and it has been non-stop adventure. I camped the first couple of nights outside of Steamboat Springs then Granby, making my way into Denver on the 3rd. In Denver I reunited with some study abroad friends, one of whom was getting married on the 5th (the reason for the reunion). Denver was great; basically hung by the pool and got reacquainted with my good friends. The wedding was very nice and Dana looked gorgeous.
After Denver I came to Estes Park, where I am right now. My friend Josh, Maui roommate and homeboy I just stayed with in Utah, was in town seeing some friends so I met up with him and he introduced me. So much cool stuff has happened in Estes that I'm just going to bullet point it:
-Went to a Rockies baseball game
-Night climbed a place called Old Man Mountain and went through a gnarly technical cave in almost pitch black darkness (once again an advantage to hanging out with locals)
-Toured the Stanley Hotel, inspiration for Steven King's "The Shining" and the place where Dumb and Dumber was filmed. I sat at the bar where Jim Carrey sat and said "We landed on the moon!!"
-Summited a 12,800 ft peak, Mt. Chapin, in the Rockies
-Went to Fort Collins and did a free tasting at the New Belgium Brewery (the guys that brew Fat Tire).
-Went on the zip line at the YMCA, operated by this guy John Pickett, local legend.
-Hiked into Thunder Lake in the park then scrambled up to a place called Boulder-Grand Pass (12,250 ft) and crossed the continental divide.
-Went inner tubing down the Big Thompson with Pickett. Basically backcountry tubing with a six pack teathered to my tube and a long stick to push off the sides. Awesome.
-Went to a rodeo. Ya, calf roping and bull riding.
-Went climbing with a friend Quinn, total stunner local climber. After our repel back down the rope got snagged and she had to solo climb back up (no rope) to retrieve it. No problem.
So thats my story. Too much cool stuff is happening right now for me to even detail it all. I have a ton of cool pics but no time to post them right now. Stay tuned for that. I'm about to leave for Wyoming and check out the Tetons and Yellowstone. Love you all and I'll talk to you soon. Peace.
