bike touring

For the 4th of July weekend Eric, myself, and 6 friends loaded up our bikes with camping gear and rode from Twin Lakes to Maroon Bells. Our route took us right over Independence Pass on Independence Day weekend! The ride was about 55 miles one-way with a climb of 4500 verticle feet!! I still am amazed with myself for accomplishing this.

multimodal camping

I'd been wanting to do this carfree backpacking trip for two years--we finally did it, so I wanted to document it here. 17 mile bus ride + 5 mile bike ride + 5 mile hike!
