About us
Our main goal/ mission is to explore as many wonderful hikes/ snowshoe trails, snowboarding, skiing, hut trips, camping, backpacking, spelunking, canyoneering, etc.,as well as general socializing, restaurants/pubs/taverns as possible in a safe and responsible manner, so that members can get a greater sense of all that Colorado has to offer and enjoy. Some of these we have experienced before, but many will be new to us as well.

4-O-July weekend float through Utah spectacularness
Location not specified yetHey,
On this one we'll let the power of the Green River carry us through, along and into sublime desert scenery while we splash, tune-out, tune-in, and soak up the river vibes. Nothing more than Class 1 water, so anyone with minimal river experience can join in. Three nights on sandbars. Hikes if time permits (depends in part on the flow rate). Campfires and nothing but stars and planets and Elon's satellites above every night. 68 or 50 miles, depending on where we put in. You can bring your own canoe, raft or rubber ducky, rent one, or hitch a ride on the two rafts leading the way. Switching ride from day to day encouraged. Stay at a posh Moab accommodation with back patio overlooking red rocks after we take out.DATES
