Let's wrap up summer by going for a weekend of exploring Mirror Lake area on Aug 28-30! Lake itself has clean water and fish, and will be near it's warmest for the year. Surrounding mountains include Emma Burr and Fitzpatrick peaks - offering scenic hiking options. There is both an "official" and dispersed camping options around.
In the remaining weeks leading to this event, I'm hosting Wednesday night evening walks around Garden of Gods. Feel free to attend, get to know each other, and help make this adventure more fun for everyone!
Here’s the plan as it stands now (might have minor corrections):
Friday, Aug. 28 — we drive out to the location (about a 3 hour drive), set up camp, go fishing, and grill the fish if we catch any (last time we went alpine lake fishing - 3 of us who were actively fishing caught 11 fish, but no guarantees here). We’ll get to know each other, share stories of past adventures, and share ideas for future ones.
Saturday, Aug 29 — in the morning, we hike one of the nearby peaks — whichever the group likes best, depending on everyone’s preferences and fitness level. In the evening, after returning tired but happy — perhaps more fishing, a bonfire, songs with a guitar, dancing.
Sunday, Aug 30 — swimming in the clean lake (to freshen up after a wild night ;-) ). Planning future adventures! Then we head back home.
If you’re interested, text me at +1 617 584 0074 and I’ll add you to the group where I'm organizing this!
