Sunday, June 6th, 2010, members of the Beckwourth Outdoors walked the plank high Clear Creek in Clear Creek Canyon, west of Golden, Colorado. The 4-5 mile hike included walking the boardwalk like plank built above the abandoned water aqueduct built by the Golden Canal and Reservoir Company in 1932. I do not know not when the aqueduct was abandoned and who built the plank walk above the water channel, however it was an interesting feat to position beams across the aqueduct to support the planks. There are two separate impulsive profane words expressed in the video used in context to highlight the insane dangerous nature of the plank walk. Enjoy our plank walk.

Our day in Fraser, Colorado, snow tubing at Colorado Adventures Park on Saturday, February 27th, 2010. Four members of our Beckwourth Outdoors family picked a great day to go tubing on the hills near Winter Park, Colorado with partially sunny skies and temperatures in mid to upper 30's. After about one hour of tubing, we were tired and hungry, so on to old town Fraser for a very, very nice lunch at the Crooked Creek Saloon. As to the video, there are few areas where my thumb appeared in front of the camera lens. I decided to keep the blurred thumb image in the video. Now pull up a chair and enjoy our day in Fraser, Colorado.

With temperatures around 21 degrees F., wind gusts up to 25 mph and a wind chill factor temperature of 4 degrees, we had a very nice picnic at Echo Lake, Denver Mountain Parks, bordering the Mt Evans Wilderness Area, Colorado. The lake is situated at ~10,600 feet above sea level, about 4,260 feet below Mt. Evans. It was a day of snow shoeing and ice fishings with friends. To warm up after snow shoeing and ice fishing, we hung out in the stone shelter near a glowing fire in the fireplace, sipping hot chocolate, hot lentil soup and eating hot dogs cooked on the outdoor bbq grill. Thanks to Val, Andrea and Alton for putting together a great winter activity for the families and friends, one day after the new year." 27 minute video, rated G with one swear word.
