Want to get away but just don't have the time or money? Wishing you could escape the city and hike for a few hours? Wouldn't it be even better if you could hike with some amazing people and enjoy a sunset together? And what if you could learn a few ins and outs of photography so you could capture the event to remember for years to come?
If all this sounds amazing then this Adventure Photography Daycation is for you. Designed for those with a special interest in photography, the focus of this hike will be capturing the sunset above 13,000 feet. Join Natalie of Yogi Magee Expeditions and Aaron Tuleja as we hike to Mount Sniktau, an easily accessible 13er off the top of Loveland Pass. Natalie will guide the hiking and Aaron will guide the field photography workshop portion of our evening. Since our focus will be on capturing the beauty around us we will be hiking at a slower pace in order to get the most out of our outing together. Whether you just want to up your instagram game and take photos on your Iphone or have a nice camera with settings you just can't figure out...all our welcome on this adventure. Don't care about photography? You're still welcome to join and be a model while we shoot! No previous experience required though a moderate fitness background would be helpful.
Mount Sniktau is a 4 mile out and back 13er (13,234) which offers a fun ridge walk with amazing views. Make sure you come prepared as the wind can be pretty relentless. Parking is accessible by 2wd vehicles at the top of Loveland Pass. On a clear day you can see over 10 14ers from the top. This hike is dog friendly as well.
