The Aurora Sky tent finally made it to the mountains ❤️🏔
To my surprise I was able to cobble together last minute permits over the long weekend and get out for a quick backcountry trip!
A throwback to the last time I was here a crazy 8 years ago! No summits for me today, but the picnic area at the bottom is still a lovely place to work.
I am absolutely amazed by Perrin’s portrait by @amilliontinylines . It captures him incredibly well and has so many special details. I can’t wait to get home to see it in person (this photo absolutely doesn’t do it justice. It is incredible in person!). Jake’s reaction over the phone was delightful as he found all the little details (“OMG it’s a geocache! And a puffin! And a yak! OMG it’s Yak and Puff Findin’ Stuff!!!). Thank you so much Alyse for this incredible portrait of my special guy! ❤️
About this time two years ago, I canceled the GDT thru-hike I had spent all winter planning and training for due to the pandemic. I was heartbroken, it had years since I had left the mountains and I desperately wanted to be back. It was the right call, but it sucked. This trip might not be my GDT trip, but house hunting and hopefully making the mountains home permanently is a pretty great alternative outcome
I brought a car camping tent, but it is so windy here I’m worried about it snapping a pole or coming unmoored! This one does much better in the wind, though it does draw a lot of attention.
