http://hikingtherockiesandbeyond.blogspot.com/2015/08/glymur-falls-iceland.html
Hiking the Rockies . and Beyond. Saturday, August 1, 2015. We were surprised to see so many in the parking lot. The Lupines were beautiful as were the mountains with snow on them. Looking back after starting on the hike. This is a view of botnsvogur cove. Part of the hike takes you inside a tunnel/cave to get to the next part. There is a river crossing with a rope and log coming up. Pretty easy but I did put my phone and passport in a plastic bag. Another crossing of the river on a log. The last part of ...

Hiking the Rockies . and Beyond. Saturday, March 28, 2015. Lincoln Mountain Open Space Trail/ Franktown. This is a fairly new hiking trail I've tried to find before but couldnt in a snow storm. The trailhead is located 1/4 mile off of Rt 83 off Jones Road the right side. There is a large parking lot that can be used by horse trailers. A toilet is also here. There are several choices of loops here. This is the view of the elevation on the Lincoln Mountain trail to the Lincoln Mountain Loop. This hike incl...

Monday, March 28, 2011. 3 Days of Syllamo - Day 2- 50M. Luckily for me, I felt fairly good. little stiff, little sore and a little blister on a toe but mentally feeling pretty happy. Stage races are certainly about the mental aspect. Whoops. Jimmy suggested wearing suspenders next time. I was just glad that my skirt had kept Sarah from face planting. Comments in the bathrooms. I crossed the finish line still in the light and faster then last years time by a few hours but still wasn't happy with my pe...

If you’re lucky enough to be in the mountains, you’re lucky enough! Sunday, July 29, 2012. Long Run: Doubling up on Falcon. Here's the Cliffs Notes report - Craig. Tried to run me to death. If you want to know more about the run, keep reading. From the Falcon Trail, looking southwest to Blodgett Peak. The Knuckledragging Runner himself - still sporting "battle bandages" from the last time we ran. Conundrum looming on the horizon. I let Craig lead out, so it was his fault. Where do I start with lap 2?

If you’re lucky enough to be in the mountains, you’re lucky enough! Sunday, July 15, 2012. Where's the Flat Part? Tour guide for the. Yesterday, I did something most sane, sedentary folks would find unreasonable:. I set the alarm for 5 am on a Saturday - what? I was meeting Craig. Over at Memorial Park in Manitou Springs to run up Barr Trail as part of his Pikes Peak Marathon. Early morning sun on the infamous "W's". The fact is, this run eats at your soul from the first steps onto Ruxton, bringing to li...

Last weekend started with a little trip over to the US Air Force Academy for a good run around the Falcon Trail loop with Craig.

By the way - Craig took a bunch more photos - go over to his blog and have a look.). Shoes - Brooks Pure Grit. Almost to the top.

If you’re lucky enough to be in the mountains, you’re lucky enough! Saturday, June 23, 2012. Not so pretty good. UPDATE: Our voluntary evacuation order has currently been lifted, so we just have to watch the news and keep the phone close by. We got some cloud cover, and the winds died off. We really hope they can get a handle on this quickly as that beast got out of hand really, really fast! Fire is now over 2000 acres as of 8 PM news conference. This is not going to turn out well. Do all the good you ca...
