Ice Fishing


Augering friends


I´ve always wanted to ice fish. Today that dream became reality.



Where: Clark store in Clark, Colorado, Steamboat Lake, SLO restaurant

Who: Evan, Kathy, Becka, John I, Krista, me (day off buds from the ranch)

What: Making snowballs with a snowball maker at the Clark store, augering holes through 18 inches of ice, 3 fishing lines - one with a flag, 6 ¨catch phrases¨ ready to yell while running in case of a bite, 4 buckets turned upside down to use as stools, 4 layers of clothes, 2 sets of backcountry skiis to ski on top of the lake, 4 packages of apple cider powder, 1 bottle of cinnamon Schnopps, 1 trout caught, 3 tackles on the way to pull up the trout, 1 glorious sunset over the mountains while skiing

Some days I wonder if Colorado might actually be heaven.

Sounds like such fun!! I'm envious! I do miss the snow... And this year it has hardly even rained here. :(

Smile at the mountains for me!

Will do! Now that I´m out here, I wish I would have had more outdoor adventures while in España with you!

I´m doing yoga this afternoon, but I´ll smile at some mountains on the way back from the lodge to my room for you :)

Hope you´re doing well!
