Visit to Boulder, Colorado
June 4-8, 2008

Description

I went up to Boulder for a few days to work with some collaborators (Alessandro Morbidelli, Sean Raymond, and others). We went to Rocky Mountain National Park for a hike on the weekend, where we saw a lot of elk and did a hike. The hike was cut short by bad weather near the top, but was still quite nice, and an interesting change from my hikes around Tucson.
