Might stop by there if we have plenty of time. The most we plan to spend on the trip total is about 19 days, as that's all we could effectively take off from our jobs.
We're leaving on the 11th of this month. So about 4/5 days away.

haha lil' guy's all tuckered-out. is that the giraffe or one of the tigers? :)
might check the status of pikes peak's summit. it was pretty damn white when i was just there. might still be closed.

still the giraffe. i keep it clipped to the pack pretty much permanently so no matter what else i forget he always has a toy.
he had a cold that day. :(
perked up at the aquarium, though. :)

Actually thank you for that reminder. The friend I'm going with is a Colorado native, and he said he wants to go back to Pike's Peak.
OP here, figured I'd just post back on this thread instead of making another.
Tried looking on the websites but couldn't find anything.
>Is dispersed camping allowed at Zion and Maroon Bells? We plan on camping a few times in each state, but those are the two places I WANT to really camp at.
