All right guys, so today we're gonna go out to a place called Twin Lakes. We're gonna go do a
little bit of hiking out there, then we're gonna kind of go camp, head back into town,
then tomorrow, the second day, we're gonna go to Hackett Gulch down in Colorado Springs.
Hackett Gulch is a place, it's a little off-road trail that, so I hear, has some really cool
water crossings, so I'm really excited to check that out. That being said, we're kind of in a
rush to get down there, so I'm gonna go ahead and end this right here. I'll probably catch up with
you guys back at the campsite, so see you guys then. All right, so in a little bit we're gonna
go head up to that peak right over there to the left. It's called La Plata, La Plata, I'm not sure.
But we're gonna go check it out, do a little hike, go check out the lake
a little closer, see what that's all about.
All right, so that was really quick, just dropping her off. About to meet up with these
dudes. I really only know one of them, so I'm just gonna like go ahead and just push through,
so see you in a bit. All right, so we've been on the trail for a little bit now.
I haven't been filming a whole lot just because it's been kind of a slow-paced little road so
far, but we're about to hit some more technical stuff, so look forward to that.
All right, I just wanted to check in with you. It's about six o'clock. We got in a few hours ago,
got everything set up, so we're just kind of hanging out right now. One of the downsides to
being out here for two days and also being a poor planner like myself, I don't really have
enough juice to film anything else for the rest of the night, so I'm gonna go ahead and charge
what I can in the back. We'll see what I have to film tomorrow because I really do want to film
the trail on the way out tomorrow. I think it was really nice on the way in, but we were just
kind of rushing to get to the site, so today we'll have a little bit more time and we'll be able to
actually film some of the scenery out there. So hopefully the sun will come out tomorrow a little
bit better, and we'll be able to get some really nice footage, so look forward to seeing you guys
then.
All right guys, that's pretty much it for us today. We've got about a two-hour drive
back to Denver. Most of that's pretty scenic, or not very scenic at least,
so that's probably all I'm going to be filming for today. I do want to thank you guys for stopping by
