The Mail Mule Every Fourth of July, Breck Crystal saddles up to deliver U.S. Postal Service mail across the Boulder Mail Trail, keeping one of the country’s most remarkable mail routes alive.

Today, Breck and his mule still carry the mail along the historic trail, preserving a tradition built on grit, trust, and the landscape itself.
