Butcher Knife Canyon and Trail, Steamboat Springs, Colorado
Monday, January 19th, 2009We recently moved back to Steamboat and now feel in the heart of things. The first place Dalton and I wanted to explore is the Butcher Knife Canyon and Trail located directly behind our house. It was a plus to renting this property as we both like to hike even in the winter. So, we [...]
Remember this….
Saturday, January 17th, 2009The famous dinosaur in Steamboat wearing a saddle. I took this picture the first week I moved to Steamboat back in June 2008, which is also the time I started this website. Since moving here, I’ve occupied my time as a freelance photographer and writer. I’ve also hiked, hunted, snowshoed, traveled, and enjoyed many activities [...]

Strawberry Park Hot Springs
Wednesday, July 30th, 2008Strawberry Park Hot Springs is located 7 miles north of Steamboat Springs, Colorado. It is on my list, ‘I want to visit’.

Steamboat….traffic everywhere!
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008On Monday while Dalton and I were lazily trying to make our way through Steamboat, which seems to be only on Lincoln Avenue, we were stopped at a red light. Pedestrians were waiting on either side to cross when the little hand turned green. A latecomer on a bike towing his leashed dog started to [...]
Steamboat Springs and the Yampa Valley Curse
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008The French Trappers were the first to come to Steamboat back in the 1880s and they called the area, ‘Big Bend’, mainly because the Yampa River turns west at this point in the valley. Later after hearing the chugging of the natural springs sounding like a steamboat, Steamboat Springs was born. Steamboat evolved from [...]
Hiking Rabbit Ear’s Pass
Saturday, July 19th, 2008You often hear the phrase, ‘A picture is worth a thousand words,’ and also the phrase, ‘The picture does not do it justice.’ Both those phrases comply with hiking Rabbit Ear’s. I could never in a million years express the view from the top of Rabbit Ear’s, nor do any of the pictures I [...]
