I woke up Monday morning at my camp sight in santa fe and decided it was to chilly to ride, plus not sleeping, I decided to just drive in to the heart of old town Santa fe and ride my Fixie around the town. I rode around for about an hour, saw all the main points of interest, snapped a few pics, got back in the car and started driving north. Because I had left much earlier my Garmin had me arriving in Aspen just after 4 or 430. I was going to camp in Buena Vista but no, I decided to hit Independence Pass instead and make to Aspen.
Independence Pass was crazy, it climbs to over 12,000 ft, is narrow in places and switch backs galore. I did see a wreck on the way down. I arrived in Aspen around 430 and made my way to Aspen Highlands Pizza Co. where all the brothers were working.
That night I had some food and hydration, then we celebrated Sam's B-day.
Will write more later. I climbed 11,300 yesterday up Elk Camp. Will have more later, I hope, dont hold me to it, there is way to much to get into here. I might chuck the laptop away!!
dont you dare! updates, man, updates. do it!
