The Climb for oculus quest. It's not amazing but maybe as good as it could be
Thanks!

Run a plant nursery on the Western Slope growing primarily Rocky Mountain and Colorado Plateau native plants. Most sales are online and I ship all over the country. Spring and early Summer are crazy and too busy to hike or backpack, however late summer into Fall I have time again. Winters off so plenty of time to trail run, hike, and ski.

I am an Environmental reclamation contractor specializing in stream restoration and abandoned mine land reclamation across the western half of the state.

Basically I am that guy operating heavy equipment in the remote corners of our national parks and to make it even worse I am also the party pooper installing those darn metal grates on historic mine shafts/adits.

If you guys don't hate my already I also own a small excavation company specializing in property development in mountain communities.

Emerging technology exploration and experimentation, tech and business innovation, innovation culture, processes....anything to do with innovation for fintech and insuretech. For 4 years before Covid I worked remotely from about 60 countries....got to see, climb, hike, trek, camp in some pretty cool places. Limited travel now, so I got myself an altitude generator, I miss thinner air. I am in the northeast, need to make it to CO in between the variant waves.

Sarcasm or not, it's not even funny to post something like this. Not at this time. Reported.

Nurse practitioner. Work in family practice part time so plenty of time for hiking. Bless all you IT guru's that help the ever crashing EMRs that plague the profession.
