BPX Trip – BPX 3-Day: American Lakes from La Poudre Pass TH
A 3-day, 2-night out-and-back backpack from La Poudre Pass Trailhead follows the Grand Ditch Trail to the Thunder Pass Trail, entering Rocky Mountain National Park before crossing into State Forest State Park. Continuing over Thunder Pass, the route descends to establish camp near American Lakes in a remote alpine basin. Day two offers rewarding exploration options to Lulu Mountain, Snow Lake, Nokhu Crags, or The Electrode. We'll return to the TH following the same route over Thunder Pass and along the Grand Ditch.

RMOTHG Trip – Boulder Open Space - Fowler Trail
Starting at the Fowler Trailhead in the Boulder OS, this adventure hike follows the gentle Fowler Trail before connecting to the Goshawk Ridge Trail, which climbs gradually through ponderosa pine forest and open meadows. From the top of Goshawk Ridge, we’ll take an off-trail route along the ridge itself, with some rock hopping, offering sweeping views and a more rugged, adventurous experience. If we want some more time together, there are plenty of options to explore additional open space areas nearby.
