With the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and all the political noise we decided to get away in the Gore Range for Labor Day weekend. In a different way were reminded of just how huge mother nature is. Click on the photo for a flickr set of one of the most beautiful backpacking weekends I've been on.
Every season in the Colorado mountains offers beauty and something crazy fun to do. But watch out, the weather changes quickly.
These mornings I'm greeted by steam rising from the surface of Lake Dillon as I round the shore on my way to Vail. It looks like a mountain lake full of Puff the Magic Dragons. I'll try to capture it.
