I traveled out to Colorado after the Chicago to New York cycling trip to attend my good friend Hunter's wedding. He and his wife Lindsay had a beautiful ceremony and reception up on Keystone Mountain that we had to take three different gondolas up the mountain to get to, where the ceremony was around 10 or 11 thousand feet. These pictures are from the day of the wedding, during which Sam and I had some time to do some exploring, when Sam and I traveled up an old road to a mining town that was abandoned and did some hiking and sightseeing.
A note about the moose: I didn't know they were dangerous and tried walking up to it. Luckily it was really docile, but even then they can charge without any warning. I got within probably 10-15 feet and it looked up at me and started walking toward me slowly, while I instinctively raised my hands making myself bigger and backed away. The moose stopped walking after that and turned away. But now I know...don't get close to mooses.
Those pictures are beautiful! Wow, taken up a mountain for a wedding! Must have been breathtaking! You've sure taken in some beautiful scenery lately, and I have a feeling New Hampshire is only going to add to that. But none of it will come close to Scotland! :)
