From Ontario, I took a two day pitstop in Michigan filled with home-cooked meals, then rode through smooth Iowan mountain biking trails at Sunderbruch Park, where I was invited to Burning Man. By night I endured Nebraskan thunderstorms and a Missouri river tornado from the discomfort of my driver seat and concrete shelter (camp bathroom). I visited the Omaha Zoo in the morning for a road trip refresh. I stuck to my route and stopped for a Runza, unfortunately missing the sandhills. Eventually I made it to Denver where I caught up with family and friends. Nice to be back in civilization. I then tested my Subaru’s limits up and over Rabbit Ears Pass, finally arriving in Steamboat Springs. The adventure was here.
a place to feel at home
mesmerized by movement
each step is deliberate
astonishment by vast lands
deep through to the furthest tree
heightened perspectives expand reach
View down to King Solomon Falls.
warmth & rest are earned and appreciated
