Farmer Creek Hike

This hike is near Creede past the Wason Ranch. We hiked 5 miles  round trip.The hike is done in the springtime since there is not much shade. After lunch the clouds came in and it was a nice hike back to the cars. There was a fair amount of uphill and areas that reminded us of the TV show The Big Valley! We had several new hikers and we hope they will join our group again.

Lunch, it was nice enough that sitting in the sun was okay for some hikers. The rest of us found nice shade trees.
