One of our goals for this summer was to knock the Kesugi Ridge trail off of our ‘to do’ list. When the weather for July 22-24 was forecasted as sunny, we knew exactly where to spend the weekend.

Memorial Day weekend 2005. The forecast for Anchorage, Kenai, & PWS was for cloudy w/ rain. So we loaded up the car and headed to the only place that had a sunny forecast…Tangle Lakes on the Denali Highway.

After a week of 70 degree weather in Anchorage, we knew the end of the ski season was quickly approaching. We also knew that we needed one last good fix of the white stuff before we could move on to summer…So Bill, Scott and I loaded up the car and headed north to find crust at Broad Pass.

On Labor Day Weekend, we went to Colorado for a last blast of summer heat, but we also had some unexpected winter weather as well.
First, we headed to the Grand Junction/Fruita area for some hiking, mountain biking, and warm weather.
Then it was on to Aspen.
