A couple of weeks ago we went on our annual 10th Mountain Division hut trip. This year we went to Margys Hut near Aspen with a group of 13 friends. It was a 6.5 mile ski/snowshoe trek and it took us about 5 hours! We used two snowmobiles to haul some of our gear/food/beverages etc. Still, it was a long, hard trip. The snowmobiles even got stuck several times in the deep snow and were tough to dig out.
Yesterday I combined three of my favorite things Weddings, Skiing and Valentine’s Day! Loveland Ski Area hosted their 20th Annual Marry Me & Ski Free Mountaintop Matrimony with 69 couples getting married or renewing their vows at 12,050′ elevation near the Continental Divide at Ptarmigan Roost Cabin.

Click here to see a short slideshow. Our annual 10th Mountain Division hut trip was last weekend. This year we went to Vance’s Cabin near Leadville, Colorado. The trail-head starts in the parking lot at Ski Cooper. I wasn’t able join the group on Friday because of an assignment in Denver so I headed up...
Staring down the pipe of a 40 degree 100 foot long ski/snowboard jump as the sun set over Denver and the Rocky Mountains was the perfect place to be yesterday. All I had to do was wait for exactly the right moment and not go sliding head first down the hill into Civic Center Park.
