CLICK ON PICTURES TO ENLARGE!!
Left Minnesota on Saturday night, drove 170 miles through a blizzard.
200 miles later pulled into a wayside rest stop at 3:45am, temp was 48 degrees and slept for 3 hours.
Sunday, put the hammer down and clicked off the miles on dry roads.
This was just crazy...We pull off the interstate at Ogallala NE to get gas, I am in the gas station and look out the door. A trailer full of mountain snowmobiles is driving through the station and I spot my buddy Larry's Ski Doo on the front of the trailer. They were on their way back from a 4 day trip to Colorado. Crazy!! Had a quick chat with them and we parted our ways, one west and one group east.
Out on a warm-up hike the day before the snowshoe hike up to the 10th Mountain Hut.
We got 8 inches of fresh snow today, it was great to be in a mountain town Winter Park, Colorado. We went driving some backroads around Winter Park.
My backcountry pack with sleeping bag, food, and supplies for 3 days at the backcountry cabin. It is about a 6 mile snowshoe hike to the cabin. Our goal is to hike up to the 13,000 ft. peak and ski and snowboard down...Hike On!!

A trip out West is not complete without a stop in Ogallala...always make that a pitstop before the long drive through NE Colorado. Looks like a blast!
I truly enjoy looking through on this website , it holds fantastic blog posts.
