T Duren JonesT. Duren Jones loves hiking wilderness trails. He gets out as often as he can, and enjoys taking friends and family on his explorations. Most of those who have joined-and survived- his adventures still talk to him. He has hiked hundreds of trails in he American West, has summited all of the 54 Colorado 14,000 ft. peaks (now on his second round with his granddaughter), and has trekked the length of the nearly 500 miles of the Colorado Trail's 28 segments from Denver to Durango. Once he's done with one checklist, he on to the next-now exploring for historic remnants through hikes in the Pikes Peak Region and around the state of Colorado. A former Periodicals Editorial and Art Director, T. Duren Jones (Tim) has worked in marketing, advertising and publishing for more than 30 years. He currently works for the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs as a Wilderness Driver to the hotel's mountain camp properties (along with caretaking those camps in the winter off-season). Tim is a published author of two trail hiking books, featuring stories from his adventures, Tales from the Trails, and Trail Mix, through WordFire Press. Tim has also published two faith based fiction novels, Pinehaven and Return Home. Read More Read Less
