Cold plunging, Crested Butte, and American Basin jeeping

American Basin

The summer is going by in a mad rush. Lots of activities and gorgeous weather. We've had more lovely company and additional family on the way soon. We simply love it.  It makes this place even more magical when you can share it.



Lisa braving the 45 degree Carbon Creek










Lisa and Charles came for a short visit and we made the most of it.  First, Lisa did a cold plunge in frigid Carbon Creek. She does cold plunging on a regular basis for health. It reduces inflammation and boosts immunity. She stays in for 3 minutes which I think is amazing. I don't know if I could do it. We then zipped around Crested Butte. Paradise Cafe for breakfast which is a must. Loved having them - come anytime!







Passed a 50k race on the way. Hearty bunch.

Next up jeeping to American Basin. Our good friends Steve and Leeann have a new SUV, well, not new exactly, just in perfect shape - an FJ Cruiser which has a major following even years after they quit making them. We took two vehicles and went up to beautiful American Basin for a good test run. Fun day with perfect weather to have a picnic. We've been a couple times before and our famous (to us) climb on a 14'er (Handies Peak) was there. We'll be back...
