 200 + Miles and Crushing It!

Team SAVED was planning on a Saturday, August 6, morning resupply at Twin Lakes located between Leadville and Buena Vista. It a charming historic area with a mining history. To our surprise SAVED was crushing it and wanted to meet on Friday evening between 5:30 and 6:00. That worked for us, gave us the day to fish and play. Another text midday revealed she was still ahead of schedule, and could we meet in the historic Twin Lakes village at 4:00? Okay, that would work because we were only 40 minutes away. Guess what time she arrived? Three o’clock! Talk about cruising it and feeling good. She reported feeling the best yet. Amazing what a tennis ball can do for a hike!!!

This resupply is a big one as we won’t see her again for five days. She is planning on hiking the Collegiate West route consisting of five segments and 83.2 miles. She shares this trail with the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. We can’t wait to hear her trail stories at the end of the beautiful route.
