Alpine, Wyoming Camping Trip

Every year some friends and I take a trip to Alpine, Wyoming. Here are a few pictures. There were a lot more pictures, but they were just my friends and I hanging out or acting stupid. Not enough hiking, probably enough drinking.

Hike

Periodic Springs (we called it Intermittent) is the one hike we went on. It is family friendly, really pretty, and has cool natural spring water.

Drink

A lot of everything. I wish I kept a record, but oh well. I remember a few. I really liked Pako’s IPA from Snake River Brewing. I am usually not a big fan of IPAs, but I drank plenty of this one. (I’m not sure why this link is so big, but it is too late for me to care. Meh, it still works.)

Beers

The drink highlight of this trip was visiting Melvin Brewery in Alpine, Wyoming. I had several beers on tap at the brewery and got more in cases for later. I loved this brewery. Such a chill place to hang out. I will link it here, but pics are down below.

Here is my daughter and me and the source of Intermittent Springs. We always bring extra water bottles and fill up with the spring water.

I saw this deer one morning on a short walk.

Melvin Brewery. I loved their outside patio. Inside they also had pool tables and games. And delicious beer!
