 2020 Happened.

Colorado for Christmas to New Years.  I was SOOOOO sick. (thanks Aunt Pat).  Rode with Bob, then G and G and the girls, also Tony and his kids and spent NY in Breck with the Baltas.  Couple good powder days in Vail too.  And a super fast day at A Basin for me.

Snowmobile season...we rented with Ricky Donny.  Had place to ourselves almost every weekend.  Was quite good.  Fatbiked and XC skied at meltdown.

Went to...THE OPERA.

Feb trip to Breck/Vail with Dave, Burak and Eddie was the last of the NORMAL.  Covid hits US while we are sliding down mountains.

SPRING OF COVID.  We avoid everyone all the time.  Bike and paddle in MI (nighttime paddle among the birds on Paw Paw!), ride mtb in MI, IN, WI and IL.  Michelle is out of school...spring break canceled. 

Land Between Lakes for Memorial Day is excellent.

Fortunately...June trip to UT is a GO.  Fly into Vegas, hike Zion, visit Bryce, meet CREW in Hurricane (ride Gooseberry Mesa), 6 day Western Spirit trip to North Rim of Grand Canyon.  It snows in June and we poop in a bucket.  Area catches fire while we are there, but we escape.  Amazing trip, amazing people.

Off to northern MI...da YOOP.  Rode in Wausau on way up, camped on Superior, float plane to Isle Royale, dodged mooses, THE NIGHT OF THE MOOSE, rode Michigan Tech, then off to Marquette.  Rode two days, then back down to WI.  Camped and rode in the Northwoods.  Excellent trip...away from people.

Next trip was to Bellaire, MI...Torch Lake with the boat, Glacial Hills Trails.  Really nice trip.

Land Between Lakes again for Labor Day.  Brown County in the fall. Colorado for Columbus Day...puked on Chihauhua Lake hike.

C6P and Southside Mehpic were a thing.  Mesa bonfire.  Michelle got Covid.  Mike did not.

Strange masked Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Low key...was actually pretty nice.

Rented Pickeral Lodge with Rich, Duke and BZ for sled season.  Early trip up in Dec...dropped trailer, moved in, and boarded/skied at Granite Peak.

Headed to UTAH after Christmas to welcome in 2021.
