Mountain Adventures

Reid and I spent one last fun weekend in the mountains before he devotes majority of his time to studying for the bar which is now only one month away.....

We headed out early Saturday morning to tackle the Coast to Coast Traverse. This route took us to the top of two 13ers, first being the Atlantic Peak and then scrambling a ridge over to Pacific Peak.

 When we finally reached the Pacific summit, we realized there was no real good way to get down. So we found our best option and very carefully made our way down a rocky scramble.

 Our hike out through the Mayflower Gulch was beautiful. If I were to guess what the Irish or Scottish countrysides looks like, I feel like it would resemble this gulch.

After our hike, we drove up to Avon, CO where one of Reid's friends was having a birthday at a campsite. Although Reid does not prefer car camping, this was one of the best car camping sites you could ask for.
