Life at 9318’

Adventure, Resilience, & Belonging in the San Juans Mountains

Inside Our World

Welcome to Life at 9318. We’re a family of five rooted in Silverton, Colorado—where winter stretches for nine months, wild beauty shapes our days, and a little chaos keeps things honest.

This space is part journal, part love letter, and part honest wrestling with what it means to build a meaningful life in the San Juan Mountains. Here you’ll find reflections on small-town living, parenting, and the grit it takes to thrive in the high country, alongside thoughtful resources for adventure, community, and heart.

Step Inside

Life at 9318’ feet is beautiful, rugged, and real.

It’s where we share the small moments of grace, the big choices that stretch us, and the adventures that keep us rooted here. Alongside these stories, I’ve created a small collection of parent resources, thoughtful guides and checklists to support real decisions and everyday family life.
