A Simple Day

Saturday was forecast to be beautiful, sunny and 67 degrees. So we decided it would be a great day for a hike. Nick had the perfect place in mind - Two Elk trail, where his mountain bike ride had ended a few weekends ago. That trail turned out to be a bit of a bust given the fact that the trail begins at a shooting range and many hunters were out for the 2nd week of rifle season. So, we moved on to a different place...the top of Vail pass. We found a nice trail:





There wasn't anything uber-special about this trail - no waterfall, or great view at the summit, nothing like that. But it was in the middle of a meadow, with a little pond, some snow hidden in the shady areas, and just lots of peacefulness. We took Wrigley with us and he loved exploring. Enjoy the pics below :-)
