sept II : Colorado


 


Sept 28-30 :

Just a quick and short visit to Colorado , had been to different parts before and they were equally great. 
Thursday very late night reached  Denver and early next morning some hikes along the way, among them doing Continental divide at 12,881 feet was nice. Even though it was sunny , it was kind of windier and cooler weather.  

 






Sat: Explored Maroon bells and surrounding hikes, Crater lake was dry and had its own charm standing in the middle of the lake. It was nice hiking around 10,000 elevation plus or minus.
Later explored town and some other trails... 


Sun: Trail run early morning was really great at 9000 plus minus elevation. Among many others, hanging lake almost run up and down was nice. Very well maintained place and then flight back .... reached very late.

Everyone was nice and yes, do remember and it was really nice meeting (they would know who I am talking abt...  :) )
