Winter Solstice 2008 - Taos Skiing

Early season skiing at Taos is a roll of the dice. However, skiing is always better than not. The temperature was cold, the wind was high and snow pack was thin. Most of the runs were closed, but it was still a good time. The trip made us crave for more. ~ Curtis

Fall 2008 - Devil's Tower, Yellowstone, Tetons, Quarts Mountain Range




Years ago, Curtis made a list of lifetime goals. To Climb Devil's Tower made the list. And, September 23, 2008 was the day. And, lucky for me, I got to go with him. It was awesome to crack climb on this amazing natural wonder. We got our inspiration from a unique and generous soul, Frank Sanders. After the climb, we spent a few days in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. We were mesmerized by the beauty of the scenery and wildlife, apparent by us taking 500 pictures per day. We weren't ready for our 11 day trip to end so we spent our final hours climbing in the Quartz Mountains in Oklahoma. ~Melissa
