Welcome to my first blog post! You may be thinking to yourself, Why am I here? Why did Emma, or someone else, send me the link to this page and tell me to “Check this out”? Well, I’m excited to say I am hiking 500 miles on the Colorado Trail this summer! Because not all of my family is on social media, I decided to start this blog to help my family stay in the know and receive more information than I will be posting online. Think of it as an “exclusive” club you get to be part of to follow your favorite novice explorer, and to see if I can actually complete a 500 mile thru-hike.
First, a bit of housekeeping. This blog could go two ways:
- I do an AMAZING job keeping up on it and keeping everyone informed, go on this wonderful hike, upload beautiful pictures, and impress all of my family.
- This turns into the world’s shortest blog and ends much too soon with a fat DNF on my record.
Let’s hope it’s option 1.
I want to clarify that I have no background in thru-hiking, blog writing, or photography, but we’re willing to give it our best effort. So, thank you for being here and for coming along with me on this journey.
