A common expression heard among sailors in Colorado: "If you can sail here, you can sail anywhere!" I'd say it's primarily due to the quick-changing mountain weather and heavy winds that come up without warning. But the constantly swirling winds, steep mountain terrain, cold water, limited facilities, and lack of depth charts and hazard markings also make it a challenging place to sail. Several notable sailors hail from Colorado including world champion sailor Cameron Holland, Olympic competitors Chris Steinfeld, Erika Reineke, Sarah Ragle and Jack & Marcia Mathias and three-time America's Cup winner Josh Belsky (born in Rye, NY but relocated to Aspen, CO in 2008). Colorado is also home to the world's highest regatta, the Dillon Open Regatta held every August. Music: "Broken Bones" by Love Inc.

The force behind this jet of air and water comes from the strong ocean swells pushing up into the bottom of a solid rock cavern. It's captivating to watch these two elements that are both so strong challenge each other in this way.

Things can get a little scary when the winds suddenly pick up and boats start dragging. We had a close call with another boat, but thankfully nothing happened and both boats are safe and sound.
