We love outdoor activities and we know you do, too.
When we are not at work, you will find us biking, hiking, trail-running, skiing, climbing, geocaching, swimming (outside of course), exploring, and otherwise simply LOVING living in Colorado. We love to be outside. We love the shimmering gold of the aspens in September, the sparkle of ice crystals in the snow in the winter and the way the Colorado dirt smells when it bakes in the summer sun. We love to watch the sun set behind the Flatirons and the way the stars fill the inky night sky. Do you get the picture? We love being outdoors.
We also love community. We love being with our friends in meaningful ways that allow for deep connections. Often, this means being outside with our friends. (Although we are not against enjoying a glass of wine either.) There is something about shared outdoor pursuits that enables friendships to both deepen and soar.
Alas, we can not lead as many outdoor activities as we wish we could. (Unless….Are you dear reader, our soon-to-be-incredible funder who will underwrite more Adventure Rabbi outdoor adventures? Call us right now if you are!) But in the meantime, we have another great idea.
You can come and join us on our adventures. Although they are not official Adventure Judaism events, we will be there and would love for you to join the fun.
Where to Find the Adventure Judaism Staff:
Rabbi Jamie Korngold
Alta, Alyeska, and a secret mtn we are not allowed to name
Rabbi Jamie is an avid, passionate, and tenacious skier. In the winter, she relocates to Utah for the snow. If you like the steep and deep, if you are not intimidated by cold, windy, weather or tight chutes, look for Rabbi Jamie on the slopes and come ski a few runs. If you can….
The rest of the year, find Rabbi Jamie on her bikes (plural), mountain, touring, gravel, or road. She loves to be on her bicycles. Ask her about her 2024 solo trip up the west coast of Norway, 2,000 km and up 78,124 feet.
Rabbi Alan Shavit-Lonstein
14ers
See the man hiking up the 14er with a kippah? That’s the Rabbi working on his goal of climbing them all. He loves the physical challenge of the adventure and the sheer joy of being outside in beautiful places. Closer to home you will see him out running and hiking. Ask him about how much he loves the outdoors of Colorado!
