Rain and lost phone

We drive eagerly to Piz Badille, new climbing shoes in our packs, but it’s raining. Optimistically, we wade across the South St. Vrain, but it only rains harder and we have to turn back. In the end we settle for a nice hike and car camping near Beaver Reservoir. Somewhere my cellphone falls out of…

Vedauwoo – Nautilus

Doug meets us on a fine morning at the Nautilus, then proceeds to dive back into climbing with a solid lead of Stand and Deliver 5.10a. He and Ann then follow me up Ted’s Trot 5.7, just as thrilling for me the second time. Rain showers send us scurrying off the rock to sit and…

Movie: Evening (2007)

Love between rich and poor, regret, and commitment are the major themes in this bio-drama. It’s packed full of good actresses. Fun to watch, but a bit heavy on the violins and saccharine for me, and kind of an unclear message (at least for me). It’s my first trip to movie theater in a while…

Maroon Bells Backpacking Summary

My time has been short recently, so I’m collecting more notes than stories here. There are a few good stories to add later. I did add some narrative to the Flickr slideshow (click the “i”), and I’m working on an annotated map of our route:
