Mount Herman
I'm going back to last July for this blog post, when a group of us climbed nearby Mount Herman. I always enjoy seeing this meadow about half way up.
Closer to the top I found this dead tree, which I though made an interesting contrast to the never-ending forest in the background.
Here's a view in the other direction from the top, towards civilization.
Here we're starting to go back down the trail. Notice my little buddy Socks ready to start scrambling down some rocks!
And of course I have to throw in a photo looking towards the famous Pikes Peak.
And another in the same direction, this time showing the trail.
You can find lots more beautiful photos on the Scenic Weekends meme.

ReplyDeletea lovely place, and very different from my seaside town...Ah, how I long for short sleeve days and trees with leaves (or at least most of the trees)
ReplyDeletele même style de colline que j'ai faîte récemment mais avec en plongeon,il y a un étang....
ReplyDeleteThat's one keen dog - talk about straining at the leash!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hike! My favorite spring wildflower picture ever was taken on a mountain in Colorado in July.
ReplyDeleteJust great and amazing adventure, Al! I am enchanted and fascinated with so gorgeous place and view.
ReplyDeleteSounds so good to have a friend like dear Socks!
Thanks for sharing so stunning pictures.
What a lovely place, with such a GREAT view!!!
ReplyDeleteComing back to tell you I've been thinking so much about that Colorado wildflower meadow that I mentioned in my previous comment I'm going to post a memory about it this week on Gemma's meme. When I looked for the pictures I realized it was in August, not July. Anyway, thanks for the reminder of a wonderful trip.
