Outhiking...: April 2010
http://rleclair.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Periodic ramblings of the altitude afflicted. Tuesday, April 13, 2010. For regular readers of my blog, the subject line may seem a bit familiar. Back in January 2010, I joined a group of friends to ice climb down in Ouray. Well, it's now April and the snow/ice is mostly gone from the Colorado Front Range (although I'm sure we'll get hit by one more snowstorm.but that's another story.). Climb On my friends! Tuesday, April 13, 2010. Wednesday, April 7, 2010. Head west young man.or is it north.or. Next Sund...

Periodic ramblings of the altitude afflicted. Tuesday, February 22, 2011. Sowhat do you do for a living? Otherwise known as the "cocktail" question.

During the course of the evening, eventually "the question" is asked what one does for a career. For many, it's an easy answer - I'm a doctor/lawyer/engineer/etc. For me, my response is generally met with a blank stare of confusion. Of course, this is...

Periodic ramblings of the altitude afflicted. Sunday, March 21, 2010. Make way for the Gubna. When I set up this blog a while back, I figured it would be one way I would share my "altitude addictions" with friends and family. Mostly I've stayed true to course.but sometimes change is good. So with that, I'd like to introduce the Gubna. For my non-Southern audience, that would be the "Governor.". As they advertise, close to 2000 beer samples in one convention hall.heaven! So what's the Gubna. I start "Basi...

Periodic ramblings of the altitude afflicted. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Happy New Year everyone! First I must apologize for being extremely tardy in my blog postings after my Qatar trip in September 2010. As I look out the window on this very cold night, I realized that it has been nearly 4 months since I posted anything. No time like the present. So a bit of a preview of each one broken down by the two mountain ranges that these airy summits belong. Known as some of Colorado's most rugged and beautiful...
