Thomas Trail

From last summer, here are some photos of the Thomas Trail, near Green Mountain Falls. In places it's quite exposed.

But it's pretty and passes along a couple of streams.

The contrast of rocks and greenery is pleasant.

And it has waterfalls, waterfalls, and more waterfalls!

It's my first Scenic Weekends post in too long.

Lots of Waterfalls

Last summer, Unni and I went for a hike on the Thomas Trail, on the north side of Pikes Peak. You start by walking up a street in the small town of Green Mountain Falls, and crossing over a wooden bridge.

From there the trail leads steeply up, with various waterfalls next to the path.

Then the trail winds around a mountainside with steep, high dropoffs in places. Yes, this is the trail.

And this leads to - another stream and more waterfalls!

If you like waterfalls and can handle a trail with steep rocky sections and some heights, this is the the place for you. And that's my Scenic Sunday entry for the week. (Socks loved this hike - here's a photo of him resting on one of the many rocks.)

Socks on the Thomas Trail

Here's my favorite Camera Critter, Socks, on a recent hike on the Thomas Trail, as he rests on a rock.

This little guy will hike for miles with me. To see lots of other furry friends, visit the Camera Critters meme.
