Default Hello From Colorado

hello all,
I live at 7000 ft. along the front range of the Colorado Rockies. I am an avid outdoorsman, adventurer,scuba diver, and world traveler. I currently design and test survival kits and gear for a company that we will leave nameless for now but it gives me plenty of excuses to practice my survival skills in the back country. I love being in the woods and am lucky my family likes to join me except when I am testing equipment. I am a fair weather outdoorsman so I spend my winters writing and learning. If there is anything you want to know ask if there is anything you can teach me post it, I will read it.
Timo

I lived in Englewood for 7 years, many years ago and absolutely loved the Rockies. The view from my patio was of the entire front range and they never looked the same way twice. In the summer, we would take Sunday drives up into the mtns. with fly rods in hand, stop on the side of the road and trout fish for awhile. I have fond memories of Colorado. Enjoy!!! Welcome!

Hi...


Hello, Colorado. Sounds like you'll fit right in. When will you tell us about the company you represent?

What kinds of gear do you test?


NOTE:

"Pathfinder", who is now posting on this forum, is NOT Pathfinder1, which is me...!!

I live at 700 ft. along the front range of the Ohio River Valley. Spend a good deal of time outdoors backpacking and hiking. While I don't design gear I do spend a good deal of time testing it. Unfortunately I have to pay for what I test since I don't do it professional I am just a gear junkie. I do miss Colorado I lived in Englewood as well for 5 years. Spent many spring and summer days riding dirt bikes in the mountains at the Rampart Range Recreation area.

Welcome to the form hope you enjoy it here.
