Travel Her Way

"We had originally intended on hiking Tab via Jennings Creek but as you know it, things got thrown our way (as you may know this requires a 4wd vehicle) and the jeep stabilizers said “not today” 😣 (thank goodness this happened on the way up and not actually on the 4wd road). So we put the 2nd plan in action, then Colorados infamous traffic from hell happened 🤬 I70 and I25 was a nightmare and we sat in it for hours 😩yet we did not let that deter us from climbing a mountain. We arrived late, but with plan 3, we set off and with a positive mindset and prepared with winter attire 😂 we hiked out, not even a little way in, had to stop and peel clothes off as we began to melt because after we were supposed to be hiking in 30 degree weather 🤷🏻‍♀️ but here we are in 85 degrees. Needless to say, we stayed positive and admired the views. Weather came in, but only danced around us and we summited right before nightfall 🙌🏻 All and all a great day 😊 (we did sit in traffic again at 11:30 at night on I25… what is going on? 😡 I just want to live in the country already) What an awesome hike though 🙌🏻"

Throwing it back to visiting Ngari (western Tibet). It is probably one of the most difficult places to get to in China due to the high elevation (avg. 14763+ feet). But it was absolutely worth the visit, not just because of the beautiful scenery, but also the incredible culture and people. A trip I'll never forget.

"FLIGHT is BOOKED! Next stop 👉🏻 JAPAN! 🇯🇵

As much as I’ve loved (and truly needed) this time with loved ones, the great unknown is calling, and it’s time to hit the road! In three weeks, I’m headed back to Asia to explore a country known for its fresh, delicious cuisine, anime, ancient architecture, hot springs, and exquisite nature scene. 🤩 👍🏻

I may be missing the famous cherry blossom blooms, but my timing will allow me to summit Mt. Fuji when it opens in July. 🏔 Wahooo! Have you ever been to Japan? Any recommendations?! 👂🏼"

"Today the trail took us from Dingboche (14,469 ft) to Lobuche (16,207 ft). It wasn’t the hardest day in terms of miles or gain, but it pushed all of us more than any other day thanks to the elevation. Tomorrow we set off for Everest Base Camp and everyone is excited if a bit nervous! Everest is known by the Nepali people as Sagarmatha, meaning 'mother of earth'. What better way to ring in Earth Day than by paying her a visit? How are you going to celebrate?" .her.way

Mount Assiniboine 🏔 "Mountains know secrets that we need to learn. That it might take time, that it might be hard, but if you just hold on long enough, you will find the strength to rise up." ~Tyler Knott⁠

"N. Buttress Route up El Diente Peak back in July. The spice was real, and the mileage after going down the standard route due to weather."
