It's been an outrageous amount of time since I updated this blog and I miss it! In the last two years, I've spent some time hiking Front Range trails, mostly trails already on this blog, with a toddler. So, that actually means, I walk about a mile, it takes a very long time, and I don't get to properly document the trail. Now that Magnolia is older, and she is in school a few days per week, I am looking forward to getting back to solo hiking a few times per month. But recently, my favorite hiking buddy, our dog Roxanne (Rock), passed away. She was 16 years old and left us just this past Monday the 12th of May. My heart is broken and its hard to hike on without her. She made each trail more fun with her excitement, and she was one of those dogs that always stayed near my side, no matter what. Rock probably liked to hike more than me, so here are a few of her favorite trails. The next time you hike one of these trails, think of her, her spirit lives on in the mountains.
