Though I'm posting this today (finally), the actual mini-moon occurred June 25 to 29. Our original plan was to do a very cool four-day bike tour through Colorado. This would have include Independence Pass, McClure Pass, etc. (five passes total) and 320 miles. But, the weather here continued being terrible (aka winter like) so we postponed the bike tour until August.
BTW, we spoke later with some friends who were in the area of our planned bike tour and they confirmed that the weather was hideous.
Good call on our part!
Instead we drove to South Dakota to the Needles to climb. Ironically, this place usually has rain everyday and yet the forecast was great - 10% chance of rain and warm.
The weather was terrific, and the climb was fun. We managed to climb things that Dave had never climbed before. Some were fun, there were a few not-so-fun things, and in usual Needles style, we both got scared here and there!
Anyhoo, it was a nice trip. Nice to get away from lots of planning and working and being over-scheduled. Enjoy the photos!
