- We kayaked and camped our way through Colorado's backcountry in an attempt to find hidden gem rivers. What we found was even better than I could've hoped for. Road trips remain undefeated!

First off, WAY TO GO Lisa!!! 🎉🎉🎉 And shoutout to you Gatewood for your reaction time to get Lisa back in that kayak AND go get the bag and paddle! Such an epic adventure and I think we are sold on kayaking the rivers in Colorado!
YES! Lisa is the real champion for going on this trip and giving it her all. It was wild for sure! She always provides a wonderful balance to these trips and makes them so much better. We all have to go back and kayak in Colorado! But after a Texas trip haha
The 2023 paddling season is here!
Let’s go! 🎉
Yes it is!
This will be my first year as an avid paddler
The 2024 paddling season started on January 1st.
You know it's going to be a good day when we get a new kayaking video! And in my favorite place, what!?!? Heck yeah!
Haha love to hear that ash! It’s been too long since last upload but tons of videos in the pipeline. Hello 2023 paddling season! Is it Colorado or one of your favorite rivers?
@@GatewoodBrown Totally worth the wait! My wife and I live in New Mexico so Durango, Colorado/Million Dollar High Way area is our favorite easy trip to just get away. We’re planning a few paddle trips there this summer so this was super cool to see!
@@ashleatherman5033 oh y’all are right there then! I work at a company with a lot of New Mexico employees and they all live in the four corners area. So many awesome places to explore where you live! Much better than ole Houston haha
Your production is honestly top notch! It's like I'm watching
A movie. I have been kayaking South Texas(my home) for 4 years and you inspire me to boat all the places you've been but maybe can't go. The scenery, the experiences, just amazing as usual. Can't believe you don't have a million followers yet. Always looking forward to the next video!
That's the ultimate compliment, thank you! I try to be intentional with the production value and enjoy that aspect of the trip too. The following may come but it's a fun size still and I love interacting with everyone here in the comments. Those big channels look overwhelming! I'm glad to hear you all have been out there chasing rivers too. So many great spots in the South Texas area, have fun out there CCG!
Even with shallow streams looked like a pleasant trip
Ya know as a Texan I thought the streams had tons of water haha. I’m just so used to bumping and grinding but we absolutely flew on these rivers. Loved it!
Omg i clicked so fast! I love your videos man, going out on the river for the first time of the year today it’s gonna be a beautiful one here up in pnw Washington
Cheers Cole! Gosh the PNW this time of year has to be spectacular. If y’all were closer I’d make a road trip through there! Must admit I’ve mapped a few rivers up there and they have me salivating
I’m excited to see what adventures you have been on!! Love Colorado
Cheers dude! We had a blast on this one. Learned a lot but definitely want to do round 2
Oh man, the million dollar highway was absolutely breath taking! My family and I were in that area last summer, and seeing this makes me want to come back even more. Awesome video as always!
Big T! Y’all were just up there. Such a wonderful setting for a family vacation!
WOW!! Absolute!! Cuddo's to Lisa for jumping on the yak & going for it. Beautiful country & during splash time, felt like we took a dunk with ya. Awesome to have ya back & enjoyed every second!! God bless!!
Lisa is definitely a trooper! That was an unexpected full send in a wild environment and she still wanted to go on. Whoa! Haha but as always thanks for watching RT!
Love seeing this content again. Voice over master
My man thank you! Ya know the voiceover is my least favorite part but I’m always happy that I do it. Helps move the story along!
Your first video changed my adulthood life for the better. This video just continues to inspire me just as much as the first. Bravo to you señor. Well done.
Incredible Adam, thank you for sharing that. It’s still wild to me that these videos could have an impact like those. Cheers to you as well amigo!
These videos are so high quality and well made I don't understand how Gatewood Brown doesn't get more recognition for the amazing content he produces. Excellent storytelling, camera work, videography, and editing. This video added another trip to Colorado on my bucket list.
Nathan your comment made my day! Means a lot that you appreciate the work that goes into these films. We have fun with it but it can be a chore sometimes! Dude you have to try CO. So many cool spots
@@GatewoodBrown Only been for skiing, gotta go in the summertime. Keep up the great work!
Great video. I don't know if you noticed, but those Crescents are easy to fall out of if you lean much to one side or the other. I have some Crescent LiteTackles and Ultralights, and they are the same way.
Haha you know I was thinking the same thing. It’s great for maneuverability but once you’re leaning heavy you reach a point of no return. Found that point a couple times lol
Let’s go! 2023 ‘yaking season is HERE!
Yak season is officially here! So stoked for the summer. Just need rain!
Yes!! Been too long in between edits mate!! Love this!!
Content gets better with each one.
I reckon for a future on you should do a garage/outhouse tour showing all of the gear you use/transition between…canoes,kayaks,bikes,tents etc
Cheers Andy! I really appreciate the kind words about the content. Man that’s a great idea! I’ll have to do that. I’ve actually been meaning to set up proper kayak storage in my garage so that could be a fun idea to mix in there too
I love texas and I've explored every corner of it but man once I moved out west to Colorado it's a whole new world. The west is truly something else, an outdoor lovers paradise. I probably have over 1000 pins on my map of just Colorado alone that I want to see.
Totally agree with that statement. CO just blows so many places out of the water with regard to outdoor pursuits. The massive amounts of public land help a ton too.
I love the authenticity of your vlog show the mess up and how you get better!
That’s awesome man! I like to show the whole ride because that’s the most accurate depiction of the trip!
colorado is one of the most beautiful states Ive been to so far and this video has shown me some new parts I really wanna visit.
Agreed. The high peaks and desert landscapes are such a cool combination. We love it there!
Great to watch. My wife and I have an inflatable tandem and we've been all around the country doing rivers. I continually scour the web looking for rivers where a safe self-shuttle with bicycles is possible. I see 3 great ideas here. Check out McDonald Creek in Glacier National Park if you are ever there. It is stunning, has some Class II and the shuttle is on paved bike trails through the woods of Glacier National Park. I even carried my bear spray on the bike.
CW you’re speaking my language. I want to paddle glacier so bad. It’s been on my list ever since visiting the park many moons ago. Smart to carry bear spray! I’ve started messing with Uber to self shuttle and it’s worked pretty well. Something to consider!
Mr. Brown! You made my week with this video! Great to see you in Colorado territory! The scenery is marvelous. Bet that water was DANG cold! And your brother playing Red Rocks?!? Man that is cool as all hell! Congrats to him and the band! Hope to see more of you and your crew this summer. Hope Texas gets enough rain to keep your rivers up and moving!
All the best to you and your wife-
Stay safe and keep humming
Curt
Curt is in the house! Well you made my week by tuning in and dropping by to say hey. Totally agree that scenery was to die for. We should’ve spent several nights at the night 2 spot haha. Yes Bennett played red rocks! So wild! And the whole reason we did this road trip. We are ramping up the videos now that we are in season. More coming soon! Take care!
Man that was an nice trip you & your wife had. It's so awesome that you Travel a 1000 miles away from home to go kayak camping & have fun while at it. That was awesome how you met with your family while on your vacation. Good video buddy thanks you for sharing it.
Hey Mack! Hope you’ve been well. It’s definitely an adventure when you’re that far from home. So happy you watched this one too!
Another amazing production! Beautiful country!
Thank you so much Glen!
Having passed a terrible week, not fun in work, van broke down, huge problem with our mains water supply, the list goes on !
I pull up YT and find this new video, made me smile and watching you all having fun has made my weekend, thanks for the upload.
Love from France and thanks for cheering me up !!
Dang Anthony sorry to hear about the tough week. I was really happy to see the video turned things around just a little. And thankfully now its the weekend. Cheers to our friends in France!
Instantly drop what I’m doing for a Gatewood adventure!
That’s so rad to hear! Thanks for always watching the videos dean!
I love your videos and hope you will keep posting your travels. Your Big Bend video truly made me tear up with how well the quality and videography were. It was my dad's favorite place.
Thank you Joe! Means a lot to hear the impact the big bend video had. We plan on going back this fall to do a different canyon so I think you’ll enjoy that one too. Your dad seems like a cool dude!
I love watching your videos. They fill me with joy. I'm in north Fort Worth and it is so fantastic seeing all these great spots around Texas to kayak in.
Thank you Scotty! I need to do the brazos below PK, your home waters up there! Cheers man
What an awesome road trip!!! Great video!!! And way to go Lisa!!!
Thanks my dude! Such a stunning landscape to explore. Lisa was stoked to hear your comment!
Look forward to these videos!
Cheers Joe! More en route. In fact, filming a short one today!
your adventures are so inspirational!
Thank you VT! This one is pretty attainable if you’re within driving distance. Maybe to do once every couple years. Definitely was a lot of time off work!
I love your videos , always have beautiful scenes . Good job thanks for sharing such great adventures
Thank you Francisco! I upload this videos all because of people like you watching them. It’s fun to make them and then interact in the comments. So thank you for that!
Sooo good. I've been patiently waiting for your next release and it didn't disappoint. Nice vid Gatewood.
CCC how’s it going! Thank you for waiting, this one took awhile to get out and so will the devils trip. But after that there will be a slew of uploads since it’s quicker edit time
@@GatewoodBrown I look forward to their releases. Keep up the great work. From the trip itself.. to your storytelling... to your editing... kudos.
@@CanoeCampClimb I'm guessing about a months time it'll be done! It's great to hear feedback on the videos too. Especially positive feedback, a good signal to just keep doing what I have been. Thank you!
@@GatewoodBrown you got it. Have a great paddling season.
Man an incredible looking place to paddle! Wonderful video. I can't wait to get back on my kayak for some epic adventures this year!
Incredible is so spot on. Still surreal that people call these places home. So jealous! Have fun out on the yak!
Wow beautiful views for sure. Nice to see you and the family out on the river together! I hope to meet up with you someday. Looked like y'all had a blast. Love to see you just enjoying life! Happy Friday and have a great weekend my friend!
Thanks BF! Yeah those views are nuts, just when I think Texas is doing good you go to Colorado and the jaw dropping commences. Have a great weekend too!
Holy Smokes! The scenery was incredible! Fantastic job capturing the stunning beauty of that area!! 💯💯
Colorado is special! We love going up there and really enjoyed taking kayaks this time. Thanks for watching SP! You continue to make awesome videos
@@GatewoodBrown Thanks so much, Gatewood!! 👊
As always, amazing content Gatewood.
Thank you for checking this one out Taylor!
Beautiful river as always and full of suprises. What a blast! Great filming!
Thanks for watching Lynda! Lots of surprises indeed, keeps the trip fun! Haha
Another top-notch episode!! I really appreciate the time you take into filming, editing, and narration. Great stuff. Thanks!!
Kayak season=Gate vid szn lets goooo
That’s exactly right! Trying to upload every 3 weeks or so but this devils river video will take longer than usual so I do it Justice. That’s up next!
Glad you found some rivers in CO! Thanks for the amazing ride you just took me on! You're videos just get better and better! Such stunning scenery and beautiful rivers!
Hey John! Boy did we find some, and I’d bet that only scratches the surface! Glad to have you along for another one!
Oh, my hometown. Man, I loved this video.
What! Well consider me jealous. That’s is heaven on earth up there in those hills
Thanks for posting. Miss your videos.
Thanks Steven! This one took awhile to edit so now I have a nice backlog of trips to edit. Lots in the pipeline!
The long wait is over woooh let's gooo 😊
Back in action! More on the way too. Thanks for always watching!
0:52 this transition … 💯 😮
Haha trying to keep it smooth!
Lisa is an absolute trooper.
She really is! I couldn’t imagine putting up with my off the wall ideas. So thankful for her
Love that scenery in Colorado. Looked like so much fun. Really cool video Gatewood 👍🏻👍🏻
Jason’s in the house! Had a blast in the mountains. I know you cherish those mountain trips too. Unfortunately we didn’t have time for side hikes but I’d love to try that sometime
Fantastic video experience man! Keep sharing your kayaking experiences from places that are unknown to the most of us here following you. Waiting on your next experience!
I really appreciate you watching them all, Jesus! It's been so fun sharing these trips with y'all and there's many more on the way. I'd love to get out on a Texas river again but man we need some rain!
Hooray! A new Gatewood video!!! Wow man, that looks like an epic trip. I like the idea of mixing in primitive camping with resort/hotel stays to balance things out when you're with the wife. I may use that tactic to talk my wife in to a similar trip. How much harder is it to navigate river features in the tandem versus your single? That's incredible that Bennet played Red Rocks! So happy for him.
"Nature's Trail". I love it.
Cheers PPP! It was totally epic and a nice change from our bony Texas rivers So much water out there. Ya know I really liked the hotel change up, certainly made for a light at the end of the tunnel with regard to civility haha. Lisa did great! Bennett is actually headlining red rocks next month!
The San Juan’s are one of my favorite places, I’ve camped along south mineral creek as well. Keep the videos coming.
Yes! Prettiest range in Colorado I think. South Mineral has to be one of the most beautiful, car accessible campsite in Colorado. Simply stunning
Well done Lisa pushing yourself nice! Good to see the New Zealand wines being consumed :-) watching video from NZ.....
Cheers to Lisa indeed! She was way out of her comfort zone the whole time and still had a fun time. I watch lots of videos in NZ and would love to visit there one day!
DUDE! What an epic trip that you and Lisa took, definitely added to my bucket list!
Thanks my dude! All inspired by videos like yours and drew simms. Vehicles can open up some fun terrain. And for me, that’s tracking down remote rivers!
Good quality video, very enjoyable to watch. The scat was definitely elk, however it was old. I've spent a lifetime looking for it. hahaha
Thank you David! Glad to hear it was elk. I definitely need to brush up on my scar identification for the future
Another Awesome Vid. Did you utilize any local shuttle services?
Can’t wait for the Remote Design Duffles!
Any other videos in the works? Must take a lot of work getting them put together. I guess the Devil’s in the details.😊
No shuttles were utilized but definitely would on a next trip. First river we did the classic foot shuttle haha. Second river Lisa was my shuttle. She shopped while I paddled in telluride! Last river my dad ran shuttle for me and Bennett. Devils is up next! Starting the edit next week and so stoked
@@GatewoodBrown It's about time we see the Devils video!!! I've been waiting all spring!
@@paddlepedalproductions5452 Ha! I start the edit next week! Estimating about a month to put it together
I love your videos! You inspired me to start a RUclips channel of kayaking videos! I'm too poor for good camera and editing though! But I'm trying to get better! Even got the Ascend H10 because of you! I hope to inspire people as you've inspired me
Thank you YG! Used GoPro can be had for $200 and editing is free on a laptop or computer you already own! Most important thing is enjoying it because making videos is a very involved process. So worth it though!
Awesome job Lisa!!
Thank you for going on this journey!!
We all envy
Cheers David! Lisa really appreciated the kind words!
Great video. Definitely deserves a like. Plus excellent taste in music.
I appreciate that Grant! Stoked you took the time to watch the video and swing by for a comment. Have a great day man!
All the way from Singapore and I love all your videos ❤
Thank you Gerald! I appreciate you watching them all
Nice to see you guys venturing out of Texas. But, as you may have noticed, water elsewhere in the west is both colder and more challenging. This Tx boy had to learn that lesson in various hard ways. :) Tie in your stuff, dress for the water temp, not the air, and consider a flatter bottomed boat for easier maneuvering. Have fun out there!
Haha yes! The water moves swiftly up there. We want to try a more inflatable style tandem next time. Nyce rafts look like a great option. Thanks for the tips Brent!
@@GatewoodBrown Yes, IK's are a great way to go. Very forgiving and can handle up to class V with the right boat and skill set. The Nyce boats look decent and you might also check out Aire kayaks and STAR kayaks. The latter use a high pressure drop stitched floor similar to a stand up paddleboard. And if you don't know about pack rafts, check them out. It's a new category of IK that are ultra light weight for carrying in a backpack and that can carry gear internal to the inflated tubes when on the water. Hope to see you on the river some day!
@@brentbolton6984 all great advice! I’ve done a packrafting trip before and loved it. Can’t believe they get so much durability out of a 10lb boat. Nuts! If I do more mountain water I’ll definitely have to snag one, it’s not the best tool for our Texas rivers but I have some plans for out west this summer
Thanks, as always, for the river inspiration! Giving this Texas boy a hankering to up my kayak game from Texas' Colorado River to the rivers of Colorado. Awesome job, looks like y'all had a blast.
I appreciate you taking the time to watch Zach! Man I love Texas rivers but sometimes it’s fun to go to a different region and see what’s offered. Colorado is rad! Need to spend a whole month there haha. Passed so many spots that we didn’t have time to try
Looks so fun!
Thanks man! It really was. Totally new landscape and didn’t overly know what to expect
Great video! Makes me want to go on a WILD adventure!
Also great products! Cant wait to grab some gear for some adventures!
Love to hear that John! Wild adventures keep the soul alive and question your trip planning abilities haha. But fun to make revisions along the way.
Dude we’d love to have ya on board with the gear! The duffel and backpack this year are top notch. Spent a lot of time getting them developed and so stoked they are finally here
That was awesome…🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for watching!
Great work Gatewood!!
Thanks Cole! Had a blast for sure. Need to take my fishing pole next time
Great ride and vid bro
Thanks my dude!
Another great adventure
Hey Steve! Thanks my man and hope you’ve been well. The 2023 paddling season has arrived!
Great video
Cheers toby!
Im so glad you made a colorado trip. My favorite floats are in Colorado. The Colorado River has plenty of spots you can kayak. Very few log jams. Edit: I missed this drop because I was floating the Colorado😂
Yes! For how much time I spend out west I have a serious lack of content from there. Hoping to change that this winter as I edit up some trips from out there. Colorado is a gem!
Can't wait to do the Colorado river this video just makes me want to do it now.
This weekend is calling your name! I still have yet to do the Colorado
@GatewoodBrown not yet lol, but I love the encouragement, thank you. That trip will be a source to sea trip with my daughter. It'll take a bit to finish, but it will be epic.
Really cool videos thank you for sharing
Thank you JB! Thanks for taking time to watch it
@@GatewoodBrown you're welcome
Thank you for continuing to do videos my son watches them he is 7 going to be 8 he love to kayak now !
Great job the only problem now is he's not watching my channel LOL
Hey that is awesome! He might’ve recently commented too. Cheers to that! Hope y’all have fun out on the water
Awesome video my man!
Another great video
Thank you 129! Glad to have you along for this one
@@GatewoodBrown do you have a trip to Missouri scheduled for this year
Sorry I’m late to the party. I was out kayak fishing.
I’m glad Lisa held up. Red Rock was probably the incentive to keep going. 👍
Hardly late! Still day 1, I’d say you’re early in no doubt. So proud of the dudes playing red rocks. What an unreal experience. More to come on that next month though!
Epic! As always great cinematography and super inspiring! Praying for Colorado flow in South Texas! Keeeeeep raining!! Is that your brother playin Red Rocks?
Thank you dr Dan! Looks like we have some rain storms piling up. Could have some gnarly flows soon here in Texas!
@@GatewoodBrown totally! Going to guad today! Need another Medina monsoon run! Let me know if y’all go out :)
@@drdanfoss1529 Yes! We need monsoons in the hill country! Looks like we may get that this week. Fingers crossed
You quickly realized you weren’t paddling LadyBird Lake.
Also, please put your tent 200ft away from the water❤
Definitely not in Texas up there! What’s the 200’ rule or info? I haven’t heard of that. Curious!
Lol man that compared to the drip-fed springs you're used to, these rivers were MOVING! That narrow tandem didn't stand a chance and it seemed like ever local watching knew it hahaha. If not for plans the following few days, I would have had a tough time leaving that first good riverside campsite. Looked like it had just a little bit of magic there, just so cozy and perfect.
Also if you were curious, that scat at the beginning was just deer poop lol. Or moose, depending on the scale of it that's hard to tell. Either way, pellet scat is basically never a worry, with the only exception (unless i'm mistaken of course) being when Moose are in the rut and can get cranky mid to late fall.
Haha that is spot on, these rivers were cruising! So funny this is low for most locals. Like I’ll take that all year long! The tandem was definitely underpowered with two folks on it. Single mode was great though, definitely didn’t feel like a 13’ boat. Agreed on the campsite, we didn’t want to leave but this trip had a tight schedule. Ideally nights 1 and 2 would’ve been there. Night 1 was a drag! Lol
That’s a good rule of thumb on the scat. I was used to keeping an eye out for scat since we don’t have that issue in Texas. Glad to hear it wasn’t bear!
Another great video! Hey, are you going to be restocking the Hip Packs?
Hey P! Hip packs will be restocked in 2024 so it’ll be awhile!
I’m going to kayak the Colorado river in az next week. I’ve done it before and it’s a beauty. Hope it’s on your list as well! It’s also much calmer so could be perf for the gf
Well consider me thoroughly jealous! The canyons and rivers through AZ are stunning along the Colorado river. Have fun out there Ashley!
As a fellow Texan that's a lot of water haha
Haha totally agree. They have it nice up there apparently. That was record flows for something like the Frio lol
Clear creek in golden CO is no joke! I went tubing once when I lived there and it was rough. I flipped multiple times and the flow rate was very high.
We need more mountains in TX!
I agree! And mountains that aren’t 10 hours away! Haha
I would have to have that trout rod in boat with me. Looks beautiful
This predates my fishing acumen so I’d definitely take a rod next time. Although I’d be lost trying to fish for trout lol. Bet they’re all over the place up there
I think you belong in the mountain west, man! BTW that scat looked like either elk or deer. They look basically the same, but elk droppings are larger.
Dude I think so too! It’s way too much fun up there. So stoked to see you’re still loving it in Idaho. The fact it’s elk is a relief
Hitting the neches Sunday
Have fun man. Which section? The area around Martin dies looks cool
Hey there! I’m enjoying your channel. Have you done a video detailing what kind of gear you pack for an overnight or even just a day trip? I’m thinking jet boil, camping grate favorites, etc. im in Texas too. I would much appreciate recommended gear. ✌️
Hey thanks for tuning in to all the videos! I usually do an annual video covering my gear list for kayak camping. For day trips it is much simpler. I usually just do a Remote Designs dry backpack loaded with beverages, snacks, camera equipment and any layers that the weather may require. In Texas we don't need much, just lots of water to stay hydrated!
Will you to continue to make your backpack and hip pack dry bags? I noticed they weren’t on your website.
Short answer yes! Long answer is a roll top backpack will release in June 2023 and the zippered backpack redesign will be launched in spring 2024
Going up to north Carolina this month gonna be paddling the local river and lake
Have fun up there! NC is a paddling capital
@@GatewoodBrown so far it's been so fun I know in August the do a river release and people come from all over
Great video! My wife and I were wondering where that hotel was @ 12:20.
Thank you! That hotel was in Gateway, CO. Really cool place!
I would recommend wearing water shoes or sort that covers over your feet.
Definitely! I like the nrs neoprene boots for stuff like this.
i see that green and blue zipper backpack and you talk about it a bunch but we still cannot buy it. unique size and looks high quality, wondering when it will be finally available for purchase
It’s sold out! The next iteration will be available in 2024 BUT I’m releasing a roll top dry backpack on Sunday that will be very compelling for a lot of folks
Generally, the Forest Service requires dispersed campsites in the backcountry to be at least 200’ from the water. Is this also true when kayak camping?
Great question! These sites were pre existing without messages from the forest service so we felt good about it. I wonder if the FS has certain areas where that applies. We love camping by the river!
I had to be rescued on the gunnison once haha
That sounds pretty serious!
Do you have a video on your coffee setup and how to use it? Super interested.
I do not but that would be a fun video to make this summer. It’s great for camping because it’s all metal and hard to break
Yes! I’m looking for a setup for beach trips. This might fit the bill. Amazon is sold out of the grinder in your gear list.
Hello, from texas! I was wondering how y’all end up at camp, do y’all hike to a distant location with the kayak or do you drive to said location then start?
Hey Morgan! We camped basically right next to the car. The site was right off the road which made everything so nice!
Steering in a tandem is not easy. That weight up front kills your turning radius 😂
Haha the tandem is a blast but definitely comes with its complexities! Perfect for this trip though
Awesome video! What hotel is that in SW Colorado?
Thank you! It’s the Gateway resort, highly recommend!
How did y’all get to the top of the river and ride down to camp? Did you hike all that way up the river carrying the kayak?!
Drove up and dropped the kayak, drove the car back down to camp and then jogged back up to the launch! A little tough at 10k’ haha
You probably need 2 cars right because how do you get back up river?
2 cars would’ve been nice! Did the classic foot shuttle on that first one and then Lisa drive to the takeout for the second and third rivers.
Just curious, what was the second river you floated?
The San Miguel in telluride! Probably my favorite of the trip. About 5 miles over the course of 2 hrs
Gatewood in Colorado?! Say less!
Haha we love it up there! If I’m on vacation it’s like in Colorado or somewhere in the rockies
@@GatewoodBrown can’t go wrong in the Rockies that’s for sure.
What's the name of your brother's band?
Photoshopped out the 2500 other people camping behind every tree.....colorado is waaayyyyy overcrowded
Only crowded in the main stream spots! Plenty of solitude to be found
