Six days in Crested Butte, CO–Big Trip #3
We visited Crested Butte in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Crested Butte is our new favorite place! Our planned three-day stay turned into six. Luckily for our trip-extending needs, we visited juuuust as the weather was starting to get cold, and our campground was empty. The weather was chilly but still warm enough…

Four days in Park City, UT (visit #2)–Big Trip #3
We visited Park City in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Read about our visit in 2018 here during Big Trip #2. Park City is a fun stop. The hiking is incredible, the food and cocktails are delicious, and with a big commercial area near the campground, you can easily restock supplies and run…

One night in Logan, UT–Big Trip #3
We visited Logan in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. With a one-day gap between Ketchum and our next stop, Park City, we looked for a spot along the way to spend the night in the woods with easy access to a morning hike, like we had in Stanley. We found it in Logan!…

One night in Stanley, ID–Big Trip #3
We visited Stanley in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Tiny Stanley is an outdoor adventurer’s town. It’s in the middle of nowhere, has a grocery, a couple cool-looking restaurants, and that’s about it… except for the scenic Salmon River and towering Sawtooth Mountains sprinkled with gorgeous alpine lakes. We were there for the…

We visited Wilson in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. We had a plan for the Tetons: spend a couple days in Grand Teton National Park and do some hiking in the park, then move to the Jackson Hole area for a couple days to check out Jackson and hike with Bugsy outside the…

Big Trip #3 Catch-up #3
We’re home! I’m going to get all the posts up eventually–my computer is only working intermittently, so I have a new excuse for being slow to post–but wanted to catch you up on our last several stops as we popped around Colorado and then hopped back across the country toward home. (Here are catch-up #1…

Three days in Bozeman, MT–Big Trip #3
We visited Bozeman in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Bozeman is a super cool town! It has good food, good beer, good cocktails, and great hiking, and we loved our time there. Unfortunately, our time there was quite smoky from the wildfires in CA and OR, and some local trails were closed from…

Big Trip #3 Catch-up #2
I’m not doing a very good job keeping you all (Uncle Jim, I think it’s only you at this point) updated on our travels, am I? We’re packing so much into our days that I’m not super motivated to write posts at night, but don’t worry, I’m taking notes about our adventures and slowly working…

Two days in Hamilton, MT–Big Trip #3
We visited Hamilton in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Hamilton was great… until Hamilton was covered in smoke from the fires in CA and OR. We managed to get in a cuckoo amazing hike, eat some surprisingly good sushi, and hang out at a cool brewery, before the smoke drove us away. And…

Three days in Sandpoint, ID–Big Trip #3
We visited Sandpoint in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Read about our second visit in 2022 here. This was the point in the trip where we were supposed to turn north and head for Banff, long on my travel wish list! But alas, due to stupid Covid and the US’s inept handling…
