    A few weekends ago, Brent and I took some friends up to Pine Creek Lake that we had discovered last year. To be honest, I didn’t really want to go because there was a good chance that it was going to rain. Brent and our friends still wanted to go, so I of course went…

    We had some company come into town this past weekend. One of which had never been to Bozeman. We decided to get out the door early in the morning on Saturday and head up to our wonderful Hyalite for a quick hike before exploring the town. It was a very chilly morning. So chilly in…

    What to do on a Sunday afternoon? A hike of course and we better make sure that it is a new one! That is just what we did this last Sunday afternoon. We got ready and drove over to Paradise Valley to enjoy a nice easy 5 mile hike in the Absarokee Mountain Range. We…

    After a very long morning on Saturday, Brent and I took the chance to try out another new hike. It was just what I needed to get my mind off of the early day. I ended up going into work for several hours in the morning. We were having computer issues and I knew Friday…

    Everyone kept on telling us how we needed to hike up to Lava Lake in the Gallatin Canyon. I did it several years back with my family, but I don’t remember much of it. I had a migrane and didn’t really want to spend the time enjoying the hike. Brent and I finally went this…

    On Sunday, Jess and I went for a quick hike up Lava Lake in the Gallatin Canyon. It has been fun hiking trails that I have yet to encounter this summer. Lava Lake is a fairly iconic lake to visit, but I have never taken the time to go there. It was a warm summer…

    Now it has been a while since I’ve posted anything on the blog, some of the reasons for which I will be getting to in a later post. Jess and I have done a great many things over the course of the last few months and this was one rates at the top of the…

    After a weekend of endurance sports, Brent and I decided to go to Ousel Falls near Big Sky. It was probably one of the easiest hikes I have ever been on. It was worth the view of the falls though. We are trying to hit up new hikes this year. Hopefully we can continue this…

    On Saturday, we went on an afternoon/evening hike with some good friends of ours. We decided to try out a trail that none of us had ever done before. I have always heard good things about the Storm Castle hike, but have never explored. It was a hot afternoon in the 90’s and unfortunately most…

    After a busy day of lots of physical activity, we decided not to stop and took a little jaunt up the “M” on Saturday evening. It was gorgeous and warm out which made for a beautiful hike. I took myself out for a 10 mile run to start off my day. Had a wonderful breakfast…

    So, I finally had the chance to download the pictures from my camera and go through them and here’s the pick of the litter. It has been fun enjoying the relatively mild Fall that we have had so far this year. I hope that the eventual dip in temperatures won’t hamper my photography/video. I hope…

    This past weekend, Brent and I had a fairly active weekend. We enjoyed a nice 16 mile run which went amazing. Then we settled down for a few hours before we headed out on a walk around downtown Bozeman. After that little jaunt, we headed up to the Hyalite Canyon area where we enjoyed a…
