Kay and I just finished our annual Colorado summer backpacking trip. Rain, shine, smoke, whatever, we always have a great time and are never disappointed. This trip, the theme was sunshine despite having one very cold night. We are lucky to be able to hike to teal colored alpine lakes, deep and dark spruce forests, jagged, rugged peaks and springs and brooks flowing all over the place. It is a great on add-on to summer at The Basin.
