CHECK OUT KRISTIN HIKES COLORADO

Welcome to my blog! I’ve tried to start this a few times now and am hoping I can stick with it (it’s a New Years resolution so I have to, right?). I am gearing up to complete my second round of the 52 hike challenge in 2020 and plan to document my hikes here. I also love trying new things, reading, traveling, snowboarding, yoga, hammock naps, and exploring Colorado with my dogs and son. I’m excited to share my experiences this year here and on my instagram: @colorado_kristin. Happy hiking, people 🏔🥾✌🏼.
