Day 4 - 12 miles, 12 hours (or so), 2700 ft constant ascent - Arapaho Glacier hike

( Arapaho Glacier Rim Trail )

So, yeah, we're back, and I'm exhausted!

I've got to find some energy somewhere to start up a new exercise regimen (starting tomorrow, hiking 2 miles, 3 times a week after work, gradually increasing mileage and how often per week, and adding in long day hikes on at least every other weekend). Also need to find time and energy to get started on/finish costumes. Also need to make a bunch of jewelry to sell. I need to get rid of a bunch of beads that I no longer want and could really use the money.

Pics from our trip are here. There are 1500 of them (or so).

J-9, your home state is GORGEOUS! Just loved it, so diverse. Too bad we didn't get around to any of your suggestions. Just too much to do and only 5 days to squeeze it into! So next time we're out there, your recommendations are at the top of the list. ;)

*sigh* So strange to return to normal life after 15 days of running around the country.

Everyone have safe travels and a great time at Dragon Con!
