Hwy 150 Park City

 We arrived Wed. at Lost Creek Campground on Hwy 150.  Once we got set up we had a 4 hour downpour but got up to clear skies on Thursday and did the Pass Loop hike.  We had done this one about 15 years ago and it is still beautiful.

Grand Mesa

 On our way to Grand Junction we took a trip up to Grand Mesa.  It is said to be the largest mesa in the world. It was just beautiful and we have put it on our list to come back to.

There must be 20 lakes up here.



Vallecito Lake

 We stayed at Vallecito Campground last August but could not hike very far up the river coming into the lake due to the weather.  This time we hiked past the first bridge over the canyon.  We still got caught in a rain storm on the last mile back to camp.  This is a beautiful hike with narrow canyons trails 200 feet above the river and then back down to the river.

 This is a view of the river in the campground.

Lower Ice Basin

 This hike to lower Ice Basin is probably the hardest hike I have done.  It was 17,000 feet gain and ended at 11,600 feet.  It was well worth the effort.

 Beautiful wildflowers again.

Little Molas Lake to the Colorado Trail

Thursday we hike on the Colorado Trail above the tree line.  The views were amaszing.

Post Creek Hike

 On Wed. we move to Molas Lake.  We will be here for three nights.

 This is the start of the hike up Pass Creek.  These wildflowers are about 4 feet high.

 This is up at the top by Engineer Peak and a sample of the wildflowers.



On the road again

 We have taken the trailer out again and arrived at Haviland Lake on Monday.  This is a picture of the lake at night.  We have a great spot here.

 Tuesday we hiked the Lime Creek trail.  It gets up to 10,700 feet but it is a beautiful trail with lots of wildflowers and waterfalls.

 Getting near the top.

This is where we ate lunch....beautiful.
