Aspen WILD

Some elk hanging out up high right at dusk!

The overnight of the first WILD Wilderness Living course went off with a bang. Great people sharing amazing times and valuable knowledge in the beautiful West Elks

So day one of our first class of the summer was yet another beautiful day in our big backyard! The storms passed us by and we were lucky enough to enjoy an amazing day in the mountains. Enjoy!

The first official WILD course begins tomorrow! Heading up Castle Creek in the morning for the first of three days and one overnight of awesome wilderness experiences and sharing of Wild knowledge! If you can't be a part of it this time around stay tuned for some photos of our adventures. Maybe you can make it for the next go 'round.

Beautiful female cutthroat full of eggs! This one got released in hopes that all those eggs will turn into many more little trout!

You never know what you might come across when exploring in the mountains. Here are a ram and a ewe bighorn sheep that were hanging out up the Frying Pan river valley. There were about eight other rams trying to get close to the ewe but this dominant ram was holding his ground!

Cutthroat trout and homegrown carrots for dinner!

The high lakes around Aspen offer some breathtaking scenery as well as amazing fishing. There's nothing quite like a dinner of fresh trout at 11,000 ft!
