Schofield Pass - between Crested Butte & Marble
August 28, 2009
We spent the weekend camping out by Crested Butte.
Since the salmon weren't running, we went out for a hike.
We drove the truck as far as we could on Schofield Pass
road, then we pulled over and hiked up a hill!
The hike was a mix of cross-country and animal trails.
At the top (12,700 ft), we had great 360 deg views!

Muddy Buddy - Boulder Reservoir, CO
August 16, 2009
I decided to enter Travis and myself in the Muddy Buddy
bike and run race in Boulder! It's a 6-7 mile course
with 5 legs. The teammates alternate running & biking
and at the end, you have to crawl through a mud pit!

We had a great time and definitely played in the mud more than others.
