Our first date in Colorado since meeting in 2013 in Syracuse NY. We ate tacos and got stuck in a blizzard shutting all of Denver down!

We split time between Arizona (where Kyle was living), and CO (where Julie was living), and went on many adventures!

Backpacking at Ice & Island Lake in Colorado.

Hiked Rim to Rim in the Grand Canyon in a day! That’s 24 miles and over 6,000 feet of elevation gain!

Went on many winter snowy adventures!

Lots of days spent on warm sandstone.

Backpacked the Timberline trail in Oregon.

Adopted our sweet pup, Leif <3

Backpacked the Wind River Range in Wyoming. Leif came too and had a BLAST!

Got engaged in Steamboat Springs, Colorado while snowboarding! We had the most epic powder day, elevated with LOVE!

We celebrated our engagement that night at Winter Wondergrass, a ski mountain inspired bluegrass festival with Julie’s sister, Lisa and her husband, Matt.

We cannot wait to celebrate with you in the mountains of Colorado!
