My folks came to visit us in Crested Butte last week. Not the normal Ohio kind, they kept things quite active. I wasn’t able to join them on everything, but here’s what we did do.<\/p>\n

1) Rode our bikes down to Almont and back.<\/strong>

6) Tried to hike up to the peak of Mount Crested Butte.
\nWell, my folks hiked, I rode my bike. Unfortunately, we were turned around by thunderstorms. But, it was still a good hike\/bike with great views.<\/p>\n

The lupine are magnificent this year.
