    Album The dogs of backcountrypost.com

    Me with my 2 year old terrier mix Josie. We did a lot of steep scrambles in the fall and this one was taken up on Greyrock Mountain near Fort Collins, CO. She was awesome! I can't wait to get her out and do a backcountry trip sometime.

    For sure. He stood there like that for over 40 minutes.

    Red Deer Lake & Beyond

    THanks for the pixel size suggestion. That seemed to work! Yeah the colors were amazing. Nature at it's finest. Now to upload the video of the actual battle......how am I going to do that? This was in the aftermath - after the one bull defended his lady. He watched us to make sure we...

    Wow. Bookmarked for later reading. I have been wanting to put together this trip for awhile now. Will definitely come back to this one.

    Red Deer Lake & Beyond

    I even saved them with the "best compression" and they were too big. Oh well.

    Red Deer Lake & Beyond

    the files seem to be too big because I took them with my camera with a zoom lens. Not sure what to do besides save a duplicate file at a lower file size. Any other ideas?

    Red Deer Lake & Beyond

    One of the only trails on the east side of the divide that has alluded me has been this Buchanan Pass trail up the valley towards Red Deer Lake and Gibraltar Lakes underneath the St. Vrain valley. As a dayhike you're looking at 18+ miles, which is completely doable, but I hadn't made the effort...

    Mid-July in the Missions

    Beautiful photos. Love that sunset shot with all the layers. THis is my first time viewing anything in this mountain range and now it's added to the future bucket list. THanks for sharing!

    Americans: where was your favorite international backpacking trip?

    I have a little experience abroad: South America - There is amazing backpacking near Huaraz - make sure you hire a mule team to take your pack and cook for you, so much easier. We did a multi day circuit called the Huayhuash Circuit in Peru which is the area where Touching the Void took place...

    Crater Lake and Lone Eagle Peak

    A good friend indulged me and repeated this trip so that I could venture up into the basins below Lone Eagle Peak, a bucket list hike if you live probably within 100 miles of it (as a crow flies). Getting around from the front range to the Grand Lake area takes 2+ hours. We took a 1/2 day on...

    Fall Colors 2021

    Nope, just always wanted to backpack into there. I plan on adding some photos here for a mini trip report. The falls colors leaving out near the trailhead were amazing.

    Backcountry Music

    Nothing on the trail itself - I would rather not be surprised by a large (or small) animal and jump out of my skin because I wasn't aware of my surroundings. I am a Coloradan so I hate to admit I love finding a good jamband tune to "journey" my way up to the trail. Cue eye rolls, I know. But...

    Backcountry Post Logo - Found!

    While is was near the Head of Sinbad petroglyphs in Utah this past week I came across these holes and the first thing I thought of was the BCP logo.

    Piney River basin. We got up to the high lake below the Spider but because my buddy's knee wasn't cooperating we didn't have time to get up to Upper Piney Lake or the other basin. It's beautiful though, I definitely want to get back.

    St. George - Thanksgiving Week

    I think it took me the same amount of time either way

    Family Camping Vehicle & Camper with bikes and an HOA

    I thought I would come to you guys for some advice. I have been bashing my brain into a rock trying to figure out how to maneuver the landscape of kids, vehicles, campers, and gear that I'm sure many of you have gone through. There are 2 or 3 things that I really need to figure out in my...

    St. George - Thanksgiving Week

    I actually headed out from St. George and took the dirt road past the Yellow Knolls (am I remembering that right?) to get there. It wasn't a bad road at all. I have a Honda Element and it was really well graded except in a few spots I had to go slow and get around a few washouts but any car...
