Browns Park National Wildlife Refuge
I visited Colorado’s remote northwest corner for a camping trip the week of Memorial Day with my buddy, Jeff. This is a little-known area in Colorado reflected by the lack of traffic and visitors. We camped in the National Wildlife Refuge at the Swinging Bridge Campground on the Green River between the Flaming Gorge and Dinosaur National Monument.
Roxborough State Park
American Southwest
Day one started early before sunrise at the Doubletree in Grand Junction, Colorado. We drove 20 miles via the west entrance to Grand View overlooking Independence Monument. We arrived around 6:30 am, waiting for some morning light on a brisk morning.
Devils Head
The Bechler River
We did a 5-day backcountry llama trip into the Bechler River region of Yellowstone National Park in September of 2014. We used Jackson Hole Llamas (No longer in business) for the excursion and had one of the best trips ever.
15th Anniversary London Adventure
Jason surprised Jolie with this trip, planning with her sister to keep the kids and calling her boss to get the time off work. He let the cat out of the bag earlier than he planned by accidentally texting Jolie some revealing information one day while she was at work, he was texting Jena at the same time and got the texts mixed up. As a result, he announced the trip that night giving Jolie a card and a guide book of London, what a fabulous surprise!
Disney World
West Elks Weekend
Moab
We drove over the mountains to the Moab area to check out the sights and surroundings. What an amazing place to visit. We drove in through Cisco, a somewhat abandoned town before crossing the Colorado River near the historic Dewey Bridge. Stops included Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park Island in the Sky District, and Dead Horse Point State Park.
Bandalier
We spent a weekend in Santa Fe, New Mexico on vacation. My friend Wetherbee recommended we visit Bandalier National Monument near Los Alamos. This was a really fun day exploring the interactive ruins and scenery in the area.
Winter Trip to the Bighorns
Visited the Bighorns in the winter to do some trailer camping, skiingk and snowmobiling with my buddy Ford. We spend a few days exploring the mountains and lodges.
Pawnee Buttes - Revisited
We went for a day drive out ot the Pawnee Buttes. The last time I was here, the racked barn was still standing and there wasn’t a modern windmill in sight. Things have changed quickly out here.
