Body of Missing Ranger Found

The Denver Post reports on the discovery of Jeff Christiansen’s body in a rugged area of the Mummy range. He had fallen and suffered an apparent head injury and was found by two hikers.

To my high school friend in California (or his parents)…

They say it’s easier to keep a loyal customer than to get new customers. Unfortunately, Verizon is still the cheapest DSL provider where I am living, so i’ll stay a customer, but their customer service is hugely lacking.

News from high up

Gunshots Bring Hope in Search for Missing Ranger I havn’t gotten to play in the search because I’ve been working every day since he’s been missing. I had an opportunity to go out on a night hike last night, but I passed because I’m working a 26 hour shift today. I figured I would just [...]

Check out this new blog from another female physician who likes to do outdoor stuff (make that crazy outdoor stuff) and encourage her to share her thoughts with [...]

Short hike for meg

A view of Long’s Peak and the continental divide from the start of the Twin Sisters trailhead… Another view from higher up…sorry, it’s the only peak to see from this trail …Same view, different exposure. Shortly after this, it [...]

Random Thoughts
