Did you know that you can see buffalo (more accurately, American bison) in several locations in Colorado? 🦬 Here are a few popular spots:

đź“Ť Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge - Located near Denver, this refuge is home to a herd of bison that roam freely within the protected area.

đź“Ť Genesee Park - Near Golden, this is one of the closest places to Denver where you can see bison. The park has a dedicated bison enclosure.

đź“Ť Terry Bison Ranch - Just south of the Colorado-Wyoming border, this ranch offers tours and close-up views of bison.

📍 Daniel’s Gate Park - Located just south of Denver, this park has a bison herd that can often be seen grazing in the open fields.

Head to one of these locations to enjoy the scenery, a picnic, or a hike while observing these creatures in their natural surroundings.

I don’t know about y’all, but taking in the sunrise in silence is a key part of my morning routine. 🌅 It starts my day with a sense of gratitude for this little life of mine and allows me to clear my mind and set my intentions before taking on the day.

You’re going through your packing list, preparing for your backpacking trip, when you get to your kitchen. You take a look at your food list and—let me guess—dehydrated food pouches and packs of ramen? 🍜

🍽️ Look, I get it. Ramen is the undisputed king of cheap and easy backpacking meals, but after your third or fourth bowl, even the most die-hard noodle enthusiasts are going to start dreaming of something different.

🍽️ Fear not, I’ve got you covered. My latest Field Note includes 5 trail-ready backpacking meals that will make you forget all about those wavy, sodium-packed noodles.

It’s hotter than a moose’s coochie out there these days. 🥵 We’re at higher elevation out here, which means thinner air and increased UV radiation, so plan accordingly:

🧊 Pick trails with plenty of shade. How? Colorado peeps, check out the COTREX app (free!) and select a trail you’re interested in. Use the measure tool to plot a route and select the elevation profile. The black line indicates the trail and its elevation, while the green line indicates tree cover. The more green, the more shade!

🧊 Make sure you’re fully hydrated BEFORE your hike, and pack more water than you think you’ll need. Be aware of any water sources you might find on the trail (also visible on COTREX!) and stock up as needed.

🧊 Pack a hat and neck gaiter, wetting them often with water. This will help cool your blood as it circulates.

🧊 Most importantly, listen to your body and rest/rehydrate in the shade as needed. If you start to feel the onset of heat exhaustion (lightheaded, dizzy, nauseous), turn back to the trailhead and DO NOT push yourself. Don’t hesitate to reach out to SAR in case of emergency.

For more tips on how to stay hydrated on the trail, be sure to check out my Field Notes (link in bio). Happy trails, y’all! 🌞
