Adventure Quote
From the Electric Kool-Aide Acid Test, which is the official name of the guidebook, to the moose (aka swamp donkeys) that we saw on the daily, to miles and miles of outdoor rock climbing as wild as Wyoming, Ten Sleep has always been a place that captured my heart ever since I first visited in 2012. Being able to go back made it obvious though, that half the magic comes from sharing such a special place with amazing people. From being reunited with old and dear friends, to adventuring with those I've gotten to know more recently, to meeting new people and hearing their stories, our clown show wouldn't have been complete without each and every person that had the masochism to put up with our constant bullshit, trash talk, and vulgar humor. ~ From Brittany's 2015 Facebook page reflection on her most recent climbing trip to Ten Sleep Wyoming
