It opens wonderful views of the upper Cottonwood Creek basin. It takes only about extra 10 minutes, but views both sides of the pass are incredible, especially of the Mt. Yale, Mt Columb.ia and Mt. Harvard. Don't miss it :-)belferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08393392129283049440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717214275439167841.post-77192850058746036832012-10-08T09:39:12.883-06:002012-10-08T09:39:12.883-06:00Oh Linda do come!

'Mmmmfff', he said.

I have never seen such an arrow in stones (but can think of a handful of locations where it would have been helpful!).<br /><br />We were out in Colorado about a week ago and did take some hikes from your site - thanks! Such a beautiful state. I wish we could find employment...but we just haven't been that lucky. Well, there is always the retirement years. Slowly, I am posting pictures.<br /><br />PS. The forest service pit toilets are the best in country. One day after lunch, I told my husband to stop at the next trailhead/campsite he saw...we pull in...Hokey Smokes! I would definitely have given it 4 stars!!<br /><br />KThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14675117636370455435noreply@blogger.com
