It’s been one hell of a season, crew. This last hike was nothing short of spectacular, with temperatures in the mid seventies, the trees changing colors, and fall in full swing, the crew had much to be grateful for as we prepared for a four mile loop through Golden Gate Canyon State Park. We…
BMFR is always a fun time of year, and this year’s ninth annual campout and music festival was no exception. For CannaVenture’s 17th event, the crew headed up to Guffey, CO for three days of music, camping and good vibes with great people. This year’s theme was a tribute to Jim Henson, known for his…
I cannot tell you how excited I was to find a location for Discs-n-Dabs events that was within an hour of Denver and Boulder, even before I’d ever played it. Having the option of nearby courses for single day and special events makes it much easier for people to commit to coming out and playing…
For the fifth hike of the season, our crew ventured out to Betasso Preserve in Boulder to hike the first of two loops along the Betasso Preserve Trail. Attendees began arriving shortly before 4PM to find very limited parking in the main lot near the trailhead, and many carpooled from the overflow lot or walked…
Friday, July 13th kicked off NORML Summer Camp 2018 in Guffey, CO and this year was even better than last year. The property was easier to find, easier to access, and incredibly private. With more than 120 acres surrounded by BLM land, it truly is a cannabis camper’s paradise. Campers began arriving mid day and…
Our fourth hike of the season kicked off with beautiful summer temperatures and some eventful encounters with the Park Rangers. We arrived at Main Parking Lot #2 just before noon to set up and stake out our spot. Garden of the Gods is a very popular tourist destination, and traffic proved to be heavy due…
This year, one of my goals was to prehike every CannaVenture hike close to when the actual event was taking place. My thought was that this would allow me to gauge trail conditions, check for closures, see what parking was like, as well as get a firsthand understanding of how much heavily trafficked the trails…
Even the most seasoned disc golfers were put to the test this past weekend at the second annual Discs-N-Dabs tournament. The 2018 tournament featured two divisions, a sold out crowd, and two nights of live music. Plus, attendees got to camp onsite and were required to take one dab per person per team (6 dabs…
In between planning camping and hiking events, it’s often hard to find time to simply enjoy the outdoors without planing and running an event. When the opportunity to escape for a few days comes my way, I have a hard time saying no. So, in spite of all of the stress that is common leading…
It’s been more than ten years since I’ve been backpacking. That realization was shocking to someone who hikes and camps more often than most. It had been ten years since I’d fired up that backpacking stove, used a water purifier in a creek, or enjoyed waking up on the side of a mountain without a…
