Mallory Cave Hike
Katherine and I went into Boulder for a hike up at NCAR. We picked out the Mallory Caves hike. The caves were closed for the season, but it was still a great hike. The last 100 vertical feet were almost straight up (seriously, I'm surprised the city of Boulder doesn't close that part of the trail). It was a nice afternoon hike!

Twisted Tree
I've taken photos of this tree before back in 2009. I'm surprised it's still here and hasn't deteriorated or rotted down any.
Edit April 4, 2023: The tree has broken after the straight section.
