The term #weekendwarrior always got a bad rap when I was growing up. Then I moved to CO and finally realized what it means to plan all week, party Friday night, wake up early Saturday and do some #epic #shit like hike 16mi on the #coloradotrail . That's warrior status.
With advice from @clean_dry_socks and @mrmabes we were prepared for a weekend of #backpacking and great ridgeline views. I haven't backpacked in over a decade so at times I felt like a #fishoutofwater commenting on mtbers i9 hubs or drooling over Joe and Kristin's @j_paks setups, but after I used my #trekkingpoles to rail a few berms and boost a few jumps, I'd gotten it out of my system. 2 things I learned this weekend- @jackarlope is better at this sport than me, and trekking poles are the best thing ever.
See ya next weekend, mountains!
