Welcome to Foot Man Dog!

These pages contain information about enjoying the mountains and other outdoor activities. Collected here are the experiences of the author from his travels in the mountains, many of which are in Colorado, and to other outdoor locales. You will find trip reports, journals, gear lists, photos, and useful links.

If your are interested in lightweight backpacking, see the gear page. This will also help you decide what gear is appropriate, especially for a Colorado backpack trip.

Feedback is welcome.

"I sez, Mother Gue, the Rocky Mountains is the marrow of the world. By God, I was right! I might never see 'em but my common sense tells me the Andes is foothills and the Alps is for children to climb. These HERE is God's finest sculpturing. There ain't no laws fer the braves ones. Ain't no asylums fer the crazy ones. There ain't no churches 'cepten this right here. And there ain't no priests 'cepten the birds. By God, I are a mountain man and I'll live til an arrer or a bullet finds me and then I'll turn inter a post and moulder into the further buildin' up of these here mountains, the back bone of the world."

- Del Gue from the movie Jeremiah Johnson
