Hiking to the Summit of Pikes Peak
Back in 2022, on the second day of my attempt to conquer Pikes Peak, I fell short, coming within a mere 2 miles of the summit.
Fast forwarding approximately two years, I made another attempt on Day 2 to reach the summit, and this time, I succeeded. However, some of the challenges I faced on my previous attempt resurfaced.
Despite these setbacks, I am thrilled to finally announce that I have successfully summited Pikes Peak.

My Return to the Barr Trail
มุมมอง 2828 วันที่ผ่านมา
Back in October 2022, I embarked on my first attempt to conquer the Barr Trail and reach the summit of Pikes Peak. At that time, it was my inaugural 14er, and I was utterly clueless about what to expect. A whirlwind of events unfolded within a single day, from waking up from work to the grueling 5 1/2-hour drive from Grand Junction to Maintou Springs, and of course, the daunting elevation gain....
Decaliborn Trail - Colorado's Quad 14ers
มุมมอง 21หลายเดือนก่อน
The first time I hiked not one, not two, not three, but "four" 14ers in one day. Welcome to the Decalibron Hike, where you tackle these "Four" 14ers in one trail. Yes, you may have noticed that I put the word "four" in quotes. That is because while you can reach the summit of Bross, it is technically off-limits to hikers. So put on your gloves, hat, and warm hiking gear and tag along with me an...

This is one of the first hikes I did with some of my co-workers since starting my new job along the Front Range. We decided to tackle not one but two 14ers, Grays & Torrey's. The hike was amazing, though I was struggling after hiking 11 miles the previous day with my hiking group.

Hiking to the Summit of Mount Blue Sky
มุมมอง 202 หลายเดือนก่อน
I have always wanted to do this hike, and I finally got to conquer it before they shut down the highway for over a year for road repairs, beginning on September 3, 2024, and won't reopen until Memorial Day 2026. From crazy wind chills to windy conditions and getting lost a few times, the journey to the summit was an experience. On top of that, I met some fantastic people along the way. The hiki...
Turkey Trot and Castle Trail

Located close to Red Rocks, the Turkey Trot Trail gains some elevation but nothing crazy. When I went, nature gave me an early preview of Halloween by adding an eerie vibe to my hike.

Dropping 1,000 Feet Underground in the Mollie Kathleen Mine
มุมมอง 8762 หลายเดือนก่อน
I have always been fascinated by mining experience from the 1800s to the 1900s. Mining back then was different, and I learned everything that miners did: the insane work, countless hours of manual labor, the harsh conditions they worked in, and the little sleep they got to try to make a living. This mine tour surprised me, and it's no wonder why the Mollie Kathleen mine Tour is one of the best ...

Get ready for the Cripple Creek adventures to continue with Part 2 from Memorial Day. I decided to take the Cripple Creek Railroad to learn about the history of this fantastic town. However, there was something a little different that completely blew me away. It was the number of mines the city of the cripple creek had and being able to see a majority of them. Tickets to Cripple Creek Railroad:...
Donkey Release of Cripple Creek
มุมมอง 872 หลายเดือนก่อน
Many different activities happen around Memorial Day, and one of them that the small historic town of Cripple Creek does is a donkey release. There is a lot of history behind the town's donkey release every year. In the mining days, donkeys were used to transport all the ore the miners extracted. Many donkeys never saw daylight as they worked in the dark mines 24/7. Around Memorial Day, Preside...

Territory Days in Old Colorado City

Despite being super tired from the day before, I still made it out to a place I hadn't been to before: Old Colorado City. This was part of my journey over to Cripple Creek where I made a pit stop here to see one of my best friends as it was the last day of the Terrority Days festival.
Red Rocks & Morrison Slide Trail

Come along for the trail with me as I tackle an enjoyable little loop trail in the Red Rocks area. This trail is called the Red Rocks and Morrison Slide Trail. I like to call trails like these balloon, trails, because you have one path that evereachesy reaches an int,ersection and that intersection loops. So think of the loop as the balloon and the path leading up to the intersection as the str...

DUE TO AN UPLOAD ERROR, there is a caption that wasn't included in the video.

@@ervinslens thank you very much. That morning sunrise just left me in complete awe. It was the best way to start off the day
Hope you got some rest buddy! I could tell you weren’t feeling 100% Chris! #COC
I was definitely tired since I had to work late the previous night. But wait until the Cripple Creek vlogs. I am fully awake for those.
Would be your luck to get back from the hike and have a traffic jam!🙃 Happy hiking buddy!
Not what I was expecting. Probably should have checked the red rocks schedule ahead of time haha
Stunning! I could listen to you talk about your adventures all day.
Thank you so much for all the kind words. There is still a ton of adventures out there so I’m still just getting started.
❤ Pretty
