Bald River
On October 18, 2012, I took a week and a half trip back home and did some hiking around Bald River and Norris Lake. The fall colors are always nice this time of year. [mapsmarker marker=”83″]

San Juan Mountains
Over the long weekend of October 5, 2012, we headed out for a road trip to the San Juan Mountains of Colorado. We basically just explored around the Telluride and Silverton areas. On Saturday we drove to Telluride and walked around there a bit. I considered driving…
Brooks Lake
The weekend of September 28, 2012, we made our annual fall trip to the Tetons to see the elk bugling. For four straight years we didn’t see any elk bugling…we didn’t even see any elk this time. I think we’re going to have to rethink this annual…
Weminuche
From August 30, 2012 to September 3, 2012, Chris, Paul, and I took a four day backpacking trip in the Weminuche Wilderness in Colorado. We originally planned to do five days on the trail, but, as many longer trips usually go, the plan was modified as we…
Long Lake – Beartooths
On August 23, 2012, Tracy and I had planned to take a three day weekend to hike a 14er in Colorado. However, Tracy was pretty shot from the weekend before at Spider Lake, and I had a long trip planned for the next weekend, so we decided…
Spider Lake
The weekend of 18 Aug 12, Tracy and I took a couple of friends up to Spider Lake in the Uintas. I have never hiked past Swasey Lakes on this trail, and the hike to Spider was close to 10 miles, but I figured it would be…
Cirque of the Towers
On July 25, 2012, Benjy flew out and we took a trip to Cirque of the Towers in the Wind River Range. Of course, for Benjy this was a climbing trip, but I convinced him to spend a couple of days backpacking with me. I had never…
Tosi Creek
The weekend of 20 Jul 12, Tracy and I headed up to Tosi Creek in the Gros Ventre Wilderness of Wyoming. We had checked out this trailhead a few weeks earlier, and I wanted to see if we could make it up to Tosi Basin. There isn’t…
West Fork Blacks Fork
On 14 Jul 12, we headed to West Fork Blacks Fork for a flat backpack for Tracy’s healing ankle. Somehow we had never hiked here, and this trail was really, really pretty. The forecast was calling for rain and cold, but we decided we would try it…
East Fork Bear River
On 30 Jun 12, Tracy and I took a backpacking trip up the East Fork of the Bear River. We had just checked out this trail for the first time a couple of weeks earlier, and it seemed flat enough for Tracy to try with her healing…
