At the start of 2020, we had big plans. Like extraordinarily big plans. We had dubbed it the year of doing Unnecessary Shit. Then this little thing called a pandemic crept into our lives like an anvil falling on a coyote creeps and a good chunk of what we had on the calendar came and went and we spent most of the year doing things alone, big things close to town, trying to be “safe” and responsible. The Alliance snuck in a few unnecessary things, but for the most part, it was a fairly quiet year.
2021 came in with a lot of optimism and the roller coaster we’ve come to call normal continued to derail itself at every corner. With that said, we maybe didn’t do as much unnecessary shit as we wanted, but we got out and got after enough to look back on the year and feel like it was not wasted.
Here’s your recap.
Ten on Zen
The Season Opener
My 40th
Lounge to Summit
I h❤️te Running
Getting Lost
Bonus: Two Things to Always Bring into the Backcountry
And just like that we are staring down the loaded barrel of another year. As we say goodbye to what was, I can’t help but be excited to see what kind of unnecessary shit we can get ourselves into next year.
Peace. Love. and Revolution.
