Walking Denver by MIndy Sink Pdf

Its mild climate and abundant sunshine make Denver, one of America's fittest cities, a welcoming place for a walk any time of year. Colorado's capital is the country's fifth most walkable city. There is so much to see when out for a stroll through downtown or a hike in the nearby foothills. This exceptional guide explores the best of the city from Dinosaur Ridge and Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre to the Mile High Loop in City Park and public art scattered throughout downtown. These 30 specially designed urban treks are not only good exercise but are a great way to soak up the history, culture, parks, and vibe of the Mile High City. The walk's commentary includes trivia about architecture, local culture, and neighborhood history, plus tips on where to dine, have a drink, or shop. Each tour includes a clear neighborhood map and vital public transportation (where appropriate) and parking information. Route summaries make each walk easy to follow, and a "Points of Interest" section lists each walk's highlights. Insider Mindy Sink guides the urban adventurer from the Mile High Loop, the city's newest footpath in City Park, to the Golden Triangle's cultural and architectural gems, and the ever lively Art District on Santa Fe. From the Auraria Campus (home to three universities), to the city's oldest still operating cemetery, this book reveals part of the city even seasoned locals overlook.

Walking Denver by Mindy Sink Pdf

People come to Denver for the nearby mountains and spectacular natural beauty, the craft beer, the outdoor lifestyle and mild climate with abundant sunshine, but what they also discover is how walkable it is as they explore culinary treasures, history that goes from the time of the dinosaurs to the founding of the Centennial state, and unique culture of the west. In Walking Denver, author and local Mindy Sink guides readers—whether they are first-time visitors or natives—on 32 diverse walks through the heart of the city, up into the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and across the eastern plains. Find the spots where the city reaches 5,280 feet above sea level or one mile high, giving the city it’s nickname of the Mile High City; tiptoe through historic cemeteries and learn of those who shaped Denver in its early days; explore the arts in the Golden Triangle and Arts District on Santa Fe neighborhoods; plan for a half-day outing to the famed Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre and nearby Lookout Mountain Nature Center & Preserve; visit the state’s first capitol with a stroll through downtown Golden and much more. In this new edition, the author invited her then-11 year old daughter, Sophie Seymour, to contribute “Kid Tips” to select walks that are most suitable for families. Sophie highlights the elements of these walks that will most appeal to kids—playgrounds, wildlife, and activities along the way. Not only is the whole family getting some exercise, they are learning together about history, art, architectural trivia, and what makes this place so engaging. Whether you’re looking for a two-hour stroll or a full-day’s entertainment, grab this book, step outside...walk Denver!

The Viking Way by Malcolm Buckley Pdf

'A must for all who have loved and lost their best friend and loyal companion' The Viking Way is a challenging long distance footpath in the UK, and runs 147 miles from The Humber Bridge to Oakham in the County of Rutland. My pilgrimage along this amazing footpath in June 2019, spanned 12 consecutive days. The purpose of the walk was to assist in my 'coming to terms' with the loss of my Chocolate Labrador 'Denver' in June 2018. During the nine months following Denver's passing, I nearly left this life 3 times...by choice, the devastation his loss created took me down into the deepest, darkest depths of despair. The level of grief I experienced in losing Denver was absolute, and beyond anything I'd ever known. Carrying Denver's collar in my backpack, here is the record of the outer physical challenges I encountered on the trail, and to an equal degree the deeper inner battle of the journey through my complicated, unresolved grief. An emotional roller coaster that takes the reader into the depths of complicated grief, and yet the love, joy and happiness our dogs bring into our lives shines through.
