Summer Stanley Canyon

Here are some photos to remind me of summer - a hike up the Stanley Canyon trail, which starts on the Air Force Academy.
The trail winds up a narrow canyon by a stream, which was nearly dry when we were hiking.
Near the top it opens up into meadows.
It's a very pretty hike, and I'll have more photos from it next week.

  9. After watching on TV all these desolate pictures of people stuck on snowy roads in the Northeast it was wonderful to look at your warm summer pictures.
