Every campsite that we visited in Colorado had one of these signs warning about Bear encounters. The closest thing any of us saw to a bear was Shawn Rylander in his special "Manties".
Lex had never been to Colorado before. Needless to say, he was very stoked on the epic scenery. His camera's LCD broke on the 2nd day of the trip, but that did not stop him from taking over 300 photos of mountains before we returned home.
We skated our share of parks. Everyone on the trip got a treflip except for Rylander and myself (no shocker there). Adam Young is still good at skateboarding. He taught the Colorado skateparks that he can shred. My personal highlights for the trip were the night we spent in the mountains outside of Ourway. The National Forest there was amazing. We did not see anyone not affiliated with our group during the entire stay.
In the morning, we hiked about 300 yards up the stream next to our campsite. Apparently we were in Gold Mining Territory.
It was a badass start to my favorite day of the trip. Sieben has friends in Durango. They suggested that we eat tacos at this microbrewery. Turns out people like Sieben. One of his friends gave us the tour on how beer is made in a very large scale. We all got drunk at this point and decided to stay the night in Durango. Switchie almost decided that the brewery was his new home.
I cannot think of a better place to share a twelve pack amongst good friends.
