Despite learning how to ski here, my normal adventure map has strangely omitted time in Colorado. Abigail has cool friends- they celebrated their wedding in Crested Butte, and she managed to find cheap airfare for both of us. It was a good start to February. One photo per day:

Day 0: Packing for adventure schizophrenia.

Day 1: Fly from LAX to Gunnison- Grand Canyon scenic flight for free. #AlaskaAir

Day 2: Meet friends and make new ones. SKI.

Day 3: Vacation. Cute houses, deep snow.

Day 4: Steep. The Staircase. Amazing.

Day 5: This place keeps on giving. Deep Throat. Bluebird

Day 6: Switch gears. Every ice climber has to go to Ouray once. Thanks Drew and Lindz

Day 7: Never say never. Abigail swings tools. The girl has grit.

Day 8: Abigail comes to terms with Big Chute. Steep AND deep. Free lift tix from Ak Air.

My version of vacation might not work for everyone, but it sure does for me.
Wow! Looks like a great trip! š
Beautiful photos, Skander!
