Sand In My Sprockets: AZ >>> NM
http://sandinmysprockets.blogspot.com/2010/04/az-nm.html
Sand In My Sprockets. A bicycle tour through the southwestern states of America. Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Mormons watched me, the sky amazed me, hills daunted me, and storms chased me. But I made it across the state line into New Mexico, and over the continental divide. Silver City, NM offered a shower-the first in five days- and great people. Big ups to Gila Hike and Bike and Silver City Co-Op! Gotta run though. Emory Pass. April 22, 2010 at 7:45 AM. April 22, 2010 at 10:16 AM. April 23, 2010 at 12:01 AM.

Sand In My Sprockets: Southward! And Kind of Downhill
http://sandinmysprockets.blogspot.com/2010/04/southward-and-kind-of-downhill.html
Sand In My Sprockets. A bicycle tour through the southwestern states of America. Saturday, April 17, 2010. And Kind of Downhill. Rolled out of Flafstaff, full of pancakes and coffee. Pedaled across the Mogollon Plateau, then dropped into the Tonto Basin. Camped near Lake Roosevelt after a nice swim last night. Was in the range land, so had to scare off some cows from my campsite. Probably wanted my cheesey rice, broccoli and tuna. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Weak in the tweak. And Kind of Downhill.

Living it up in alaska. We started our hike up the summit trail from the Wickersham Dome trail head. The summit trail is in great shape. We hiked past the trail shelter at mile 8 until around mile 10.5 to start our bush whack to Eleazar's cabin in the White Mountains. We headed toward the cabin off the ridge and half way through we came to a nice clearing to get a view of our direction. The cabin is just beyond the hilltop directly behind Dan's head. CHST to Middle Fork Chena River. We had to bushwhack t...

Living it up in alaska. Ben and I had a fantastic short weekend trip to the Brooks Range. The Brooks Range is 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle and around 300 miles north of Fairbanks. We stopped in Wiseman at Bernie and Uda's B&B to say hi to the winter classic guys too. Atigun Pass was so beautiful, Ben shot the 4x5 and I could not wait to get out the skis. Over the pass it was still winter at -12F, but sunny and no wind. Skiing early the next morning over Galbrith Lake and up the ridge.

Living it up in alaska. Colorado Creek Cabin (DNR). We were very cozy inside the Colorado Creek cabin, just a few over the max amount. It was no problem though because a snowcave was built and Ann slept in there. It was great ski into the cabin and only 6miles. On the way out we went up Compeau Trail to the ridge. Ben skiing on the way out. Trevor quickly skiing over the overflow we encountered. We only had to scrap the skis once though. Fernie in the snowcave with Ann. Christmas 2009 at home in Alaska.

Living it up in alaska. The girls at Kat's Thanksgiving dinner. Kat served up a great meal and everyone brought sides and wine. A few hilarious stories too, a good time was had by all. I have a cool purple cast for my broken wrist, but still have another ski trip planned. Ben and Galen toasting at scotch and socks night. A group of us met for Thanksgiving day ski. I skijored using a split skijor leash, Pella and Lucy. We still were no match for Sky and Ty, but we had a good ski chasing them. Dan made Ben...

huffblog: Moody Creek!
http://huffblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/moody-creek.html
Living it up in alaska. The hike to packraft Moody Creek starts at the Dragon Fly drainage at mile 273. Trevor, Ed, Ann, Shook and I started trip two of the kidney reunion packraft tour straight up to the summit of Sugarloaf Mountain and off the back side. Tbone, not texting :). We arrive at Moody Creek, excited to get on this new unscouted river. One of many fun manoeuvers through a solid class three river. Ann (a.k.a. Scout), famously said just go ahead it looks good. Trevor headed through a rocky set.

huffblog: Robertson River
http://huffblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/robertson-river.html
Living it up in alaska. The hike up from Cathedral Rapids near Tok was beautiful. We were able to hike straight up the drainage to the start of the climb and there was one waterfall after another. The climb up the pass was relativity short and ended just below snow line. We had a few solid sheep trails that made for easy climbing on and off. The pass was guarded by the sheep. The next morning we floated the fast, fun and braided Roberton River 25 miles back to the bridge. Looks like another fun adventure.

Living it up in alaska. 1 year kidney transplant anniversary at Mayo! Ben and I are at Mayo this week for my 1 year kidney transplant anniversary! It has been an amazing year and hard to sum up in one blog post. The biopsy is over, and all of the other major testing this week, Ben, our families and friends have been super supportive throughout. Ben also did a charity photo auction. Trevor and I about 2 months after the kidney transplant - dubbed "the big hairy man kidney". It was my first 50k ski race so...

huffblog: Juneau and finally pics of the house
http://huffblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/juneau-and-finally-pics-of-house.html
Living it up in alaska. Juneau and finally pics of the house. Back in December, we packed up the cars and drove to Haines to board the M/V Fairfeather ferry. Bad choice in the winter on Alaska Marine Highway, it only runs in fair weather. So we were stuck in Haines for 3 days waiting for the M/V Kennicott and we loved it! Pella's new past time is muching on mussels on the beach. Pulling into Juneau on the M/V Kennicott ferry in route from Haines. We love our new house! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
