Hey y’all! I’m back, and yes, Will and I survived Capitol Peak. In a nutshell?
The Bad: We didn’t summit
The Good: We both safely crossed the Knife Edge twice
The Bad: My GoPro battery died in the cold so I only have one small iPhone video!
Will crossing the Knife Edge
Naturally, I have tons of stories to share with y’all but it’s going to take a few days. We got back to Denver late last night and per usual, Will’s photos are far better than my iPhone snaps. He needs a little bit of time to work his photog magic but once he is done, I promise I will get the stories up on the blog! Opinion Question: Would you rather have the entire four day trip crammed into one massive post? Or do you prefer that I split it up? I planned on splitting it into two different posts, but who knows…..don’t want to bore y’all to tears if you aren’t interested! I’d really like to know your thoughts!

I meant to tell y’all this fun fact last week but alas….I suck. I completely forgot! Remember how I mentioned that I was doing some work with Active Junky on a women’s specific backpacking gear guide? Well, it’s officially live and online! I got the opportunity to act as one of the contributing editors for the gear guide, and while it was a fair bit of work, I loved every second. Some of the gear has become my go-to favorites, and I feel really fortunate to have been a part of the whole thing. If you’re a gal (or looking to purchasing female gear), definitely check it out….and let me know which dozen reviews you think are mine!
Here’s a hint!

Um…..I may have registered for a marathon. Not a half, a full. Oh. Shit.

Thoughts on the trip reports? Do you prefer a brief summary in one long post or more photos and details spread out over a few days?
