"I hope you will not have a building of any kind, a hotel or anything else, to mar the wonderful grandeur, the sublimity, the great loneliness and beauty of the canyon.

Leave it as it is. You cannot improve on it. The ages have been at work on it, and man can only mar it."

Happy birthday Rocky! Here’s Mt Meeker over Sandbeach Lake today.

Do you like my party hat?! Today's a celebration! Happy 109th Birthday, #RMNP! On this day, January 26, in 1915, Rocky Mountain National Park was established.

@davidfowl Any chance that translation middleware will be open sourced?

Thanksgiving in Rocky! Mills Lake, Rainbow Falls, Black Lake.

Hiked up Twin Sisters with @thornmallow in about a foot of new snow. Remembering how to be cold…

Winter’s false start means more summit hikes! Mummy Mountain, the last Mummy Range peak visible from home that I hadn’t been up this summer.

[zmj @zmj]

Want the summits of Mts Chiquita and Ypsilon all to yourself? One easy trick - hike there after Old Fall River Road closes for the season.

[zmj @zmj]

Scrambled up to the Spectacle Lakes today, just below the face of Ypsilon Mountain.

Hooray, the last few weeks of fall hiking are saved.

[Governor Jared Polis @GovofCO]

Our state is proud to be home to world-class outdoors, including four national parks, that play a key role in our economy and way of life. My action today will help ensure national parks and federal lands will remain open through a potential shutdown.

Isolation Peak is the farthest peak from a paved road in the Front Range, and second farthest in Colorado. It’s tough to even glimpse - closer mountains block the view from most directions.

[zmj @zmj]

Hiked Fairchild Mountain via the southeast slope. Great views of Ypsilon Mountain and the Fay Lakes to the south, and Hagues Peak and Crystal Lakes to the north.

I’m in Glacier National Park with @thornmallow ! Today we hiked the Highline Trail. The day started out enveloped by clouds, and gradually cleared for huge vistas.

[zmj @zmj]

There was something sad about Glacier. The vast airy gorges - minus the glaciers that made them and the people that lived there.

That's true everywhere in the West, but in Glacier it's still raw.

Stones Peak is right in the middle of Rocky, but surprisingly far away from… everything. An early start helps.
