Jeep gear update: tailgate organizer and rear tire carrier

Tailgate organizer worries After two months of using the Bestop RoughRider Black Diamond Tailgate Organizer that I wrote about in an earlier post, I have to say I’m a little worried. It’s starting to wear a bit faster than expected. It’s designed so the bags are removable by undoing a little loop and sliding them… Continue reading Jeep gear update: tailgate organizer and rear tire carrier

Montana

Last week, I had the fortune of spending a week on a ranch near Twin Bridges, Montana. It is an incredible and beautiful ranch right on the Big Hole River. Oh, and I had absolutely no internet or cell reception on the ranch. 📵 We took two days to get there so we could drive up… Continue reading Montana

Goodbye, Colorado

Well, it’s finally happening! Today the real nomading begins. I’m heading out today to Yellowstone and then on to Montana. After that, I head east! ðŸ˜€ This is where things get interesting. I won’t have as many people around me to lean on for places to stay or to hang out with. I’m think I’m pretty well prepared for it… Continue reading Goodbye, Colorado

Kelly and I started Saturday morning with an epic ride up Buffalo Creek. We took the Mini Buffalo Creek loop which didn’t feel so mini at 15.5 miles and 1700+ feet ascent. There was a four mile ride up a road to the start of the singletrack trail which was pretty easy. It meanders next to… Continue reading Last weekend: midnight grilling, mountain biking, July 4th camping

This time I took a few more photos to document the place. We took Cinnamon Pass up all the way to Animas Forks. Then, we made our… Continue reading Last weekend: The ghost towns, Animas Forks, Carson, and Old Carson

Last weekend: Nederland, Eldorado, and Leadville

Well, not really last weekend, but I like the idea of posting about my weekends every once in awhile. About a week and a half ago, on Friday, I went camping with Kelly and Emi in Nederland. We Jeeped in and found a pretty dang good spot and the weather couldn’t have been nicer.Interesting things: Kelly and… Continue reading Last weekend: Nederland, Eldorado, and Leadville

Apex Park

 Sheri, Chris, Kelly, and I went up to Apex last week to do some downhill mountain biking. It was a blast even though I ended up leaving a good amount of me (and my Fitbit) on the mountain after a couple spills. (Womp womp!) It was maybe a bit tougher than I’d like at my current skill level, but… Continue reading Apex Park
