This is the final semester of my nurse practitioner program. In 3 months it will be done, I’m so close to the finish line. The exhaustion and self doubt is setting in. It is immensely easy to fall into defeat, become calloused and discouraged from the uphill journey and struggle. Questioning your motives. Becoming so task and deadline oriented, disconnected from emotions, purpose, passion and self. You lose yourself in the process. Finding myself in a rut, submerged deep in a self made holding tank of stagnate water. This is my attempt to climb out. Needing a little radical pep talk to keep pushing forward. I’m talking out (typing out …), digging deep to release and free the buried passion and intent that was originally planted. Taking a moment to intensively self reflect and soul search. Revisiting the raw and emerging thoughts that sparked the motivation . Returning to the core of my original intention and reason for taking the path in the first place. #nursepractitionerstudent #npstudent #selfreflection #peptalk #purpose #motivation #gradschool #harperscornertrail #dinosaurcolorado #colorado #canyon #blueskies #grounding

Part 2 post from the Harper’s Corner Trail at Dinosaur Natl Monument (Colorado - Canyon Area)! Looking west from the overlook into Whirlpool Canyon with the Green River 1000’+ below! Review my last post and imagine the two amazing views at the end of this trail!!! #dinosaurnationalmonument #dinosaurnationalmonumentcanyonarea #harperscornertrail #harperscornerroad #co #colorado #coloradohikes #colorfulcolorado #coloradobeauty #coloradooutdoors #colorafolife #whirlpoolcanyon #harperscornertrailoverlook #coloradoinstagram #lifeisgood #livingthedream #optoutside #everydayisagift
The Dinosaur National Monument - Colorado is known as the Canyon Area and for good reason! The Harper’s Corner Scenic Road is 31 miles long with numerous overlooks and side roads and ends at the Harper’s Corner Trail. This 2.3 mile hike is easy and at its farthest point has an overlook with two incredible views! The views in this post are north and east featuring: - the confluence of the Green and Yampa Rivers - famous Steamboat Rock - a 1000+ deep canyon We would rate these views among the best in Colorado! Next post: the amazing western canyon view from this overlook! #dinosaurnationalmonument #harperscornerroad #harperscornertrail #canyonarea #co #colorado #coloradobeauty #colorfulcolorado #coloradoinstagram #coloradooutdoors #coloradolife #hike #coloradohikes #optoutside #lifeisgood #livingthedream #everydayisagift

Harpers Corner is truly a secret garden to show off the amazing landscape diversity at one glance. @dinosaurnps 真是一处人迹罕至却令人惊叹的地质奇观!复杂的造山运动与地质断层形成了三道峡谷相互交错的奇景。 #harperscorner #harperscornertrail #dinosaurnationalmonument #vernal #vernalutah #dinosaurcolorado #nationalpark
Dinosaur National Monument Harpers Corner Road Dinosaur, Colorado A very scenic drive through hills and canyons-the Colorado section of the monument is mostly cattle ranches and canyons once travelled by the Wild Bunch and other outlaws! #dinosaurnationalmonument #harperscornertrail #scoutthewanderdog
After spending the last several days exploring the Utah side of Dinosaur National Monument we decided to go back “home” to visit the Colorado side. Let me tell ya, it didn’t fail to amaze us 😍 Hiking Harper’s Corner Trail is a must! Bring a lunch and pick any one of the overlooks for the perfect place to have a picnic. Trust us, you’ll be happy you did! #rocky_roams #copperlensimages #hike #greenriver #dinosaurnationalmonument #colorfulcolorado #travel #rvlife #fulltimervers #harperscornertrail
This is Harpers Corner Trail which crosses back and forth between Colorado and Utah state lines- this was an amazing extra little drive we took that was completely worth it, as you can see! ⛰☀️🚘 #harperscornertrail #roadtrip #nature

Road trip! #harperscornertrail #harperscorner #dinosaur #dinosaurcolorado #roadtrip #doingwhatilove #explore
Add to your bucket list! We drove the Harpers Corner Road in Dinosaur National Monument. This national area spans both Colorado and Utah. Most people skip past this road so it’s quiet, but the 31-mile road plus a 2-mile round trip provides a spectacular view of Whirlpool Canyon , the Green river, Echo Park and the Yampa river. Pictures can’t do the depth and beauty of this area justice. #dinosaurnationalmonument @dinosaurnps #harperscornerroad #harperscorner #harperscornertrail #greenriverutah @nationalparkservice @nationalparks_guide #utahphotography #visitthenationalparks #coloradophotography #borntoberetired #echoparkview #whirlpoolcanyon

Utah. Or Colorado? Honestly I’m not sure. Either way this hike was close to where I worked in 2016 and I regret not finding it sooner! ••• Harpers Corner Trail, located at the end of Harpers Corner Road. 3.0 miles total out and back, moderate hike with some short but steep descents. Located in Dinosaur National Monmument, so had to leave the dog behind for this one. 2,500 feet above the river, absolutely did refuse to pose with my boyfriend near a cliff for a picture. Not dying today, thank you very much. ••• (This was Colorado. Thank you, internet.) ••• #harperscornertrail #harperscorner #dinosaurnationalmonument #hikecolorado #dinosaurcolorado #coloradohikes #trailnotes #hikingforviews
Living my Ross Gellar paleontology dreams in the land before time 🦕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So cool to see all the dinosaur bones at the quarry still preserved from the Jurassic era! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also, running out of poses (open to suggestions 😆). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #gandmsnextstop #travelshots #dinosaurnationalmonument #usa #hiking #outdoors #outdooractivities #nature #dinosaurs #jurassic #bones #fossils #harperscorner #harperscornertrail #utah #friends #paleontology #rossgellar #paleontologist #visitutah #visitUT #dinosaurnps #nationalparkspartnership

Hiked out to Harper's Corner on the Colorado side of Dinosaur NM. It was basically the top of a narrow ridge with canyons on both sides! This one is Whirlpool Canyon.

Ellie goes Dinosaur 🦕🦖 Hallo meine Fans! Heute fahre ich mal wieder über einsame Straßen. Der Highway 70 bringt uns weiter gen Norden und zurück nach Utah bis zum Dinosaur National Monument. Zuerst in die Canyon Area. Dort bin ich den Harper‘s Corner Trail gelaufen. Gigantische Aussichten, wie Ihr selbst sehen könnt! 762 m geht’s hier in die Tiefe und die Flüsse Green River und Yampa treffen aufeinander. Auf dem Weg aus der Canyon Area standen plötzlich Pferde an der Straße... #utah #dinosaur #dinosaurnationalmonument #dinosaurier #harperscornertrail #harperscorner #highway70 #usa #reisen #vacation #ellie #sternenstaub #einhorn #unicorn
So, this is a picture I’ve entered in the National Parks contest. I found out about this spot earlier this year and wanted to go. Got a chance last week and I’m glad I did. It was one of my favorite hikes and this view was 😮 😮 😮. I drove through the night, sat through two hours of thunderstorms, and had a brief encounter (in my car) with a mountain lion, but the payoff was amazing.

Dinosaur National Monument was Amazing! I just a expected a few bones and got way more! Great trails and views! #dinosaurnationalmonument #harperscornertrail #beautifulviews #imprompturoadtrip
Since moving to Colorado seven years ago, hubby and I have set off to explore as much of the state as we could to fully appreciate and experience its diverse and natural beauty. This holiday week we stole away for a couple of days to visit Dinosaur National Monument. Its remote setting in the far northwestern part of the state makes it an elusive destination. The park spanning the border with Utah is as beautiful as it is remote. On our 4th of July hike along Harpers Corner Trail (where we took in this spectacular vista) we passed only four other groups over the three mile out and back. THIS is how I imagine the National Parks once were before they became so heavily traveled. #dinosaurnationalmonument #iamatraveler #getoutside #yampariver #travelerincolorado #canyonview #vista #explore #discovercolorado #harperscornertrail #naturephotography #landscape #landscapephotography #colorfulcolorado #coloradolife #coloradogram #departmentoftheinterior #dinosaurcolorado #dinosaur🦖
Oh man. The Canyon Section of Dinosaur National Monument delivers the views. And the Colorado side of the park is to striking scenery as the Utah side is to dinosaur madness. So, try to visit both sections when you're in this part of the world.
