We are two high school seniors who were born and raised here in Boulder Colorado. Living so close to these amazing mountains has greatly influenced us throughout our lives. When we came across the Colorado Trail, we were ecstatic. An opportunity to hike across some of the most beautiful regions in America, while at the same time raising money for a good cause. How could we turn it down? We both have extensive experience in backpacking and outdoor activities, and we are looking to challenge ourselves on this journey, while also providing an opportunity to help an organization that is very close to our hearts.
