We picked her up at the airport on the Friday morning. She is a keen photographer and had brought all her gear so she could take advantage of the amazing wildflowers still blooming on the trails around here.
We had a pretty packed weekend. On the Friday we showed Fee around town and she took a ton of photos with her fancy new camera. Then we had a great dinner at the Ginger Cafe...still can't beat their Thai green curry!
On the Saturday, we hiked up to Virginia Basin with Ange and Jessie, two other friends from Crested Butte. The weather was cool and cloudy but very humid. Decent hiking weather. Virginia Basin is on the way to the climb up Avery Peak - no mountain climbing this weekend though! Here are Jess, Fee, Nick and Ange on the way up.
And a view from the trail across the valley.
On the Saturday evening, we went to the inaugural Crested Butte Land Trust wine and food tasting. Food and appetizers from just about every restaurant in town, and over 300 wines to try...heaven! A good time was had by all!!! And we even got to keep the wine glasses!
Sunday we spent the morning at the lake and then in town for coffee and the farmers market, always one of my favourite ways to spend a Sunday morning!
Inspired by Fee, I took some photos as well, though I'm sure they are nothing compared to hers - I will post some as soon as she sends them.
All in all, a very pleasant weekend - thanks for coming up Fee - we had a lot of fun!
