Way back in March 2015, we got married in this National Park. It was a small, outdoor ceremony that required a short hike through the snow to the dock at Sprague Lake. This park is particularly special to us, and we enjoyed sharing it with Owen for the first time.

The first National Park that we visited that was primarily archaeological in nature, Mesa Verde left us inspired and awestruck at the engineering capabilities of the ancestral Puebloan people.

One of the lesser known, and least visited National Parks, Black Canyon of the Gunnison turned out to be one of our favorites. A massive winter storm dumped over a foot of Colorado snow on us, testing our RV cold weather preparedness. We survived, and were rewarded with the experience of seeing the park blanketed in snow.
