I lived in Boulder Colorado for 2.5 years, and really enjoyed climbing "the flatirons", Longs Peak, and many of the other 14k peaks.

Boulder is an awesome town, sadly it has all of the same problems of the rest of the US.

Now I get a sane and sensible government, safety, compassion for the poor, excellent free education, and the breathtaking Swiss and Austrian Alps to climb!

Check out the annual Vienna Research Festival which took place this weekend!
