Duncan's visit - Aug 6 -15 -









Duncan's visit was action packed. Started with opera masterclass and coffee at our usual spot beforehand outside Paradise Bakery.
Golf at the municipal Aspen Golf with Lee Miller. The Rim and Tom Blake mountain trails . The Government trail with Alan Fedder . Rock climbing with my bus driver colleague Dave Jacobson up the Independence Pass road. A hike with M up to Cathedral Lake. And then the highlight was ascending on road bikes up highest paved road in USA - Mt Evans from Idaho Springs. 27 miles and 6,600 feet of climbing. 3 hours 15 for D to summit at 14,150 feet. A bit more for M & I !
The 9 days he had with us finished with another fabulous sat morning opera masterclass and a magnificent bike ride up to Maroon Lake.
