'Modern Family's Nolan Gould Is All Grown Up in Shirtless Hiking Photo
Former child star Nolan Gould showed how much he's grown up in new snaps.
Earlier in the week, the Modern Family alum shared photos and videos on Instagram from his hiking excursion at Maroon Bells, which are mountains located on the border between Pitkin County and Gunnison County in Colorado.
In one of the snaps, the 24-year-old is standing shirtless in shorts in front of a picturesque backdrop showing the breathtaking views of the mountains. The picture appears to be candid, with Gould gazing to the side while wiping himself down next to his hiking gear.
The actor captioned the carousel, "Four Pass Loop - Maroon Bells, Colorado. 26 miles, more oatmeal packets than can be counted. Aliens were definitely seen."
His fans appreciated the stunning thirst trap.
"Shirtless Nolan is the best Nolan ????," wrote a fan. Another commented, "dam my boi is hot." Someone else noted, "That thirst trap real ?????."
Gould had previously announced to his Instagram followers in July that he was leaving his home to go in search of adventure. He wrote, "Yesterday I left my house of the past 7 years to hit the road for awhile and try something new out. Thank you to everyone who shared the space with me and made it more of a home."
He also shouted to his mom Angela, noting, "Special thanks to my mom without whom the place would have imploded long ago. Or there'd still be spaghetti on the ceiling (don't ask). Looking forward to this new chapter and keeping you all updated on it."
The former sitcom star paired the announcement with a photo of himself sitting on his house's porch in hiking boots next to a large backpack.
Gould is best known for portraying the lovable Luke Dunphy for 11 seasons on the long-running ABC sitcom, starting when he was just 10 years old.
