Hikes & Sales

I’m not doing much hiking this Thanksgiving weekend because of the big blister on my foot I got from hiking before Thanksgiving weekend.  But hobbling or not, I’m still a sucker for a good hiking review, so if you are into that sort of thing you can read a recent one from the Denver Post here.

Still, yesterday we did manage to get out to the cutting area in the Buffalo Creek Wilderness where we bagged a prime Christmas tree on our traditional annual boycott of Black Friday.
