Wind River Range
We celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary with a backpacking trip to Wyoming’s Wind River Range – a place that has been on our bucket list for quite some time. Needless to say, it did not disappoint and we are already planning our next trip to the Winds!
Olympic National Park
Ashley’s annual girls trip to visit Jilly led to Olympic National Park, filled with gorgeous mountains, the coast and a rainforest! Quality time with friends and mountain views are good for the soul.
Medicine Bow National Forest - Snowy Range
What started out as a back-up plan when the Boundary Waters closed due to wildfires turned into one of our favorite trips of all time! We spent six days backpacking in the wilderness of the Snowy Range Mountains in Medicine Bow National Forest with great friends (and pups!)
Appalachian Trail Section Hike
We checked off a major bucket list item and completed our first section hike on the Appalachian Trail, and got to visit some friends along the way! Our first hiking trip in the southeastern part of the country and it was one for the books.
Salt Lake City
Ashley and the girls (minus one) took a break from all the B.S. that is 2020 and flew to Salt Lake City for a long weekend of hiking and girl time. It was just what the doctor ordered and so fun to check another place off of the bucket list.
