Happily, our roving retirement has finally taken us someplace warm. After a brief stop in the Bay Area to swap ski stuff for beach stuff, we arrived in Maui. Our plan is to visit all of the well-known islands in Hawaii over the next few months.
Winter’s Best of the Mountains List
As the conclusion to our mountain sojourn, we wanted to give you a best-of listing based on our own personal experience. Of course, that means my experience since I’m writing this article.
How We Survived Our First Winter in the Mountains
This year during our roving retirement we spent Christmas until the beginning of March in the mountains of Nevada, Utah, and Colorado. Our intent was to ski in the US because we couldn’t ski in Europe as planned. We thought we would provide our impressions of our time in the mountains.
Crested Butte a Genuine Old West Town
Capping off our Epic Pass tour of Colorado for this year, we took our roving retirement show to Crested Butte Colorado for the first time. We found an approachable, unpretentious, old west ski town with down-home appeal.
Telluride is Bougie and Beautiful
One of the highlights in our Colorado roving retirement sojourn this year was our visit to Telluride, a real old west mining town nestled into a magnificent box canyon.
