We made it to Colorado! Another state is done – Wyoming – which was surprisingly diverse in its landscapes. We went through Yellowstone, the Tetons and the Wind River Range which all had stunning vistas. Finishing with the Wyoming Basin which can be considered a windy dust bowl we crossed into Colorado 2 days ago.

Colorado starts with a nice ridge line walk with distant views and we really enjoyed our walk towards the first stop in this state: Steamboat Springs. We got a hitch while still walking on the trail (again) by talking to a day hiker this time. I was also able to score an ice cold beer before rising down towards the town.

Ninja had the brilliant idea to head to a bowling bar a little outside of the City where she came through about 2 months ago while hitching towards the Canadian border. They remembered her and were really awesome by putting our drinks on the house and after we chatted with the owner of the place he let us camp in the front lawn of the establishment.

This morning we had a hurried pack up of our stuff to not get wet by the sprinkler system, that was build into the ground of the lawn, so we were able to to the bus to downtown where we are currently enjoying breakfast. Our next stop will be Grant Lake where the trail will start to get more and more elevation changes.
