As an ode to summer, we floated down Ruby Horsethief in October. As the mountaintops of Colorado began to turn white, we were working on our Chaco tans and drinking ice cold beer.
As usual, we began our trip on a Friday night. We didn't begin floating until well-after dark. It's always exciting to be on a river at night, guided by moonlight.
Rio and Loki came along, too. They soaked up the sun on the boat, rode the nose of the paddle board and rolled in the warm sand in the evening.
