I can't help but catching 14er fever too even though I like peaks of all kinds and heights. I simply can't wait for more car camping, miles of dirt road, long days exploring, followed by cold beer.
Raja Ampat in Indonesia. Last international vacati Raja Ampat in Indonesia. Last international vacation we took before Covid. If I had known, would I have done things differently? Stay longer? Travel slower? I put off writing about the trip because... well *look around vaguely at the everything* but finally, you can read about this most amazing place on jacknjilltravel.com. If you're starting to dream of your very first post-vaccination, post-Covid trip, check it out. Link in bio.

Summer in Colorado is pretty epic. Did an overnigh Summer in Colorado is pretty epic. Did an overnight backpacking to Ice Lake Basin near Ouray and OMG, couldn't believe how gorgeous it is. Neon blue lakes, wildflowers and waterfalls everywhere. So lucky to call this state home. #coloradohikes #icelakebasin #icelakecolorado #silvertoncolorado
