Mt. Lily Conquered



Benjamin, Durango and I conquered Mt. Lily this weekend -- (elev. 9712 ft) -- no doubt uncharted terrain -- wonder how those trail signs got there?.

Welcome back mountain summer!




Gotta love summer's first camping expedition -- OK, at least after all the gear has been successfully located, pulled out, and dusted off. Still, once the road's been hit, the mountains are in view, and the toes stay chilly all night -- we know camping has started again!

This weekend was Rocky Mountain National Park with a delightful walk-in tent site. No one around, just surrounded by majestic mountains, a fast-moving river, and the ever-large Colorado blue sky. Heaven!
