Fall Leaf Hike

 

This time of year, we delight in taking hikes to see the leaves.  So we ventured out toward Berthoud Pass and started up a trail.  A very, very steep trail.



Thankfully, Zoe provided us with some comic relief to distract us from the steepness of the trail Woody picked out for us.  After much effort, we made it to the top and were greeted with spectacular views of the Continental Divide.





Then we had the task of walking all the way back down.



We had a wonderful time but unfortunately didn't end up seeing very many aspen trees.  This area was hugely populated with pines.

I did get the shot below, taken from our moving car as we cruised down I-70 in neutral because we were almost out of gas.  Don't worry, we made it to a station just in the nick of time.
