Benjamin & Gwyneth

August 17, 2024 • Hartsel, CO

Hello to all, we hope you enjoy our page and look forward to seeing you in 2024. We both would love to see you and want to see you have an awesome time out here. That being said, we would like for you to spend most to all of your time outside away from your phone and electronics. We are still new to Colorado so definitely don't have all the answers but could at least point you in the right direction.

Our venue is right next to the Collegiate Mountain Range, so if you have ever thought of checking that 14er off your bucket list, now might be your chance. Mt. Princeton 14,197' - Mt. Yale 14,199' - Mt. Harvard 14,423' - Mt. Belford 14,203' - Mt. Columbia 14,075'.

If hiking is not your thing, there is a ton of off-roading everywhere you look. So you might want to spend a little more on your weekly rental car, buy good insurance and see how far you can push it. (Whoever tracks the most off-road miles and can prove it wins a little something special) Other than that, try and see if you can rent a side-by-side or quad. And please don't go to the hospital before the wedding. But if you do, still show up and tell the story around the fire. If it is lame we will let you know.

Have you ever been white water rafting (maybe tubing in august)?!?! I got a deal for you. There is this reallllll nice water stuff right in town and looks like they do white water rafting. Check out KODI and tell them we sent you. They won't know what you are talking about because we didn't talk to them, but if enough people do it they might give us a deal.

If drinking is your thing, I am sure there are plenty of places to do so. But please, try not to get hammered the night before the wedding. We want to see you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and ready to go that night. We need all hands on deck. Safety warning, we will be at roughly 9,000 feet, so that 4.2% Coors Light turns into an 8 %er real quick.
Down below are a couple of activities you might be interested in. Enjoy Colorado!

Nothing to book or spend here. Just free fun for everyone. Think you are cool? Think you can come from PA, Florida, or Texas and conquer a 14'er? Prove it. We would love to see it. Take a look away from your phone and look up. Those things are called Mountains! Now go climb it and bring a beer or two for the top.
