Permalink Reply by Jillian Livingston on April 19, 2012 at 10:23pm Sounds like a great opportunity to connect Jeremy. We are doing something very similar in a condo near the conference center where a bunch of Colorado bloggers/social media women are all bunking up, packing it in. We'll have to mix the two groups together. It's so nice to connect to people early on at conferences such as these for time flies very fast.

Thanks,
Shanna
Permalink Reply by ActiveTravel on April 19, 2012 at 9:35pm I'm hoping to carpool to the conference. I'm willing to drive, but I'll be leaving from the Boulder area. I noticed a couple other folks from Boulder are going to the conference, so drop me a line if you'd like to share a ride. I'm willing to drive but think carpooling would be the good "citizen of the earth" thing to do.
Permalink Reply by Shanna Schultz on April 20, 2012 at 7:18am I might be willing to carpool from Boulder...I get a holiday inn employee discount for rooms, and it is a lot more likely that I would be able to find a room with my discount there. If my plans firm up, I will let you know!
Permalink Reply by ActiveTravel on April 20, 2012 at 1:50pm Thanks for the reply Shanna. I'll probably be driving up to Keystone, from Boulder, on either Friday or Saturday morning, then staying overnight for either one or two nights. Keep me posted when you know more about your plans.

It's so good to connect with all of you online before we connect offline.
I am a Freelance travel writer with a blog, http://aspenreallife.com, where you can find all sorts of fun and interesting stories and interviews depicting the local color and adventurous travel around Colorado. I am known to travel with three rambunctious free-styling boys and a mountain man of a husband and when I am not with them I am doing my best to write about getaway weekends with friends.
I wanted to mention that I went to BlogHer in NYC three years ago, about six months after my blog was born and although I got a lot out of it, it was completely overwhelming. I felt as though I was the only one who came alone.
I found that it was during the after parties where I really had the chance to network and connect. I also wished that I had done more of my connecting online, pre-BlogHer.
So, let's get to know one another. I'll be visiting your blogs soon, if you have one. If not, shoot me an email or visit my blog and say hello.
I also can be found on Facebook at http://facebook.com/aspenreallife and on Twitter, @jillylivi.

We'll be staying with a friend in Denver beforehand and would love to carpool from there, we're planning to rent a car for the weekend. See you then!

Permalink Reply by Rene Frederiksen on April 24, 2012 at 1:51pm I got my Keystone lodging squared away yesterday and are now planning out the days leading up to the conference.
Thrilled to see the activity in all corners of the web about the venue and also nice to see the schedule taking shape.
I'm traveling from quite a distance (Denmark) to participate and find it a little difficult to keep track of who is going, where they are from and what their main travel topic is etc.
I have created a simple form on my site, where I hope you will share a few details about you and your site in order for me (and you) to get a better picture of who is participating.
You can find the form here: http://bit.ly/JnWRzM
Please share the link.

Excited to go although I have no idea what I'm getting myself into. :) If you have any suggestions or advice, I am open to anything at this point.

I'm still looking for (cheap) lodging as well, so if anyone is looking for a place let me know. I have already rented a car so I can provide transportation. Hoping to find a group of 2+ people to spend less than $40/night per person on lodging.
