Every day was (and still is) the same routine: wake up, go to work, go home, check condition reports, and go to bed with slight summit fever. Fortunately, my wonderful manager has been scheduling my weekends on weekdays. I had requested this for more solitary 14er hiking and climbing. My “Friday” was a Monday and after […]
Read more "Trip Report: Bagels and BelOx"With snow still nested upon the areas in Colorado above timberline, I desperately searched for adventure in lower areas. Though Tyler, now working a sweet gig for Chatfield State Park, could not join, adventure was still to be had. Luckily, my friend Anica from high school decided to join me on a hike from the […]
Read more "Give ’em the Shaft"Hi everyone! I know it’s been a few months since we posted anything, but we are not gone. Now that winter is on the retreat, we’ll soon be back to a more regular hiking schedule. That means more amazing pictures and uninspired writing for you all! For this particular adventure we made the short hike […]
Read more "Campbell Ramble"We don’t only write about and photograph our adventures – Skyler also has a tradition of compiling footage from what we do to make a video based “compilation of adventure” which (for this Fall semester) can be seen right here! The Year in Review: From the desk of Tyler Greetings loyal fans and casual perusers! It’s […]
Read more "The Year in Review"In a previous post, Order of the White Lottis, an account was made of trying to reach Henry Lake in the Fossil Ridge Wilderness. That attempt didn’t work out, and so we decided to give the South Lottis trail another go this last Saturday (October 24th). We departed Gunnison around noon and made the drive […]
Read more "Oh Henry, Where Art Thou?"As indicated by the lack of recent posts from either Skyler or I, school has started! In our finite wisdom, we both decided to sign up for a class that took place during the two weeks prior to the official school start day. It was called Colorado Ecoregions. Essentially, this upper division biology course would […]
Read more "A Path Less Traveled"The writer half of the Overcast Adventurers finds himself working as a quartermaster for a summer camp this summer, so this entry is coming from just the photographer (and questionable writer) half. We miss you, Tyler. We’ll adventure soon. How’d this all start? Last semester (way before the earthquakes), a friend of mine named Jenn […]
Read more "Namaste: Traveling to Nepal after the Earthquakes"Like many great days, this one started with… classes? Yes, this adventure actually happened on a Thursday, so Skyler and I were hard at work until the afternoon. Upon fleeing geology lab, Skyler suggested that we actually go and do something, rather than a spend another evening working on projects. I couldn’t agree more, and […]
Read more "A Coal Day in Hell"Good day faithful followers and casual perusers! What follows here will be a fascinating account of excitement and intrigue… in two parts! Read in awe as the Overcast Adventurers brave the Black Canyon of the Gunnison not once, but twice! The Black Canyon is an ancient geologic feature in the Southwest quadrant of Colorado, roughly […]
Read more "We All Needle Little Love"Yes sir, that says lottis. Not lotus. Although, you might as well pronounce them the same way and save yourself the embarrassment of sounding weird when you discuss this post. Why the distinction? Because we’re about to go on a journey down the South Lottis trail, kids. It’s been a bit since we last made […]
